For someone with bad feet, what works best cross training or running shoes?

It depends on the foot issues you have I have fairly flat feet and find cross trainers work better for me. I also use a arch support insert to stop my feet from rolling and prematurely wearing out one side of the soul

Why do none of the new blance shoes on amazon come in men's 12 D (regular, not wide)?

I have bought 2 pair of new balance shoes in a 12 regular on amazon in the past year. There are plenty available. Listing might have as 12m, 12d, or simply just a 12.

The AT Tread works well for me. It works great for packed, hilly, grassy, slippery/muddy or graveled surfaces. feel very confident with traction down and up trails. I like that the tread does not get clogged with dirt. Seems easy enough to get dirt out as well. I hike mostly moderate or less level trails. I think it would do well for moderate and above as well. also, I have walked on pavement with these. The are a bit stiff for pavement. but, The extra support on ankles for the trail (uneven surfaces) is great for me.

Are these stability shoes or neutral cushioning. stability would be better for yard work?

They are trail runners, and that means stability.
