I would have given Dyad 10 or 9 or however far back five stars. I've been wearing Brooks Dyad shoes for years. They're my very favorite shoes. The 11s are not the same shoes. They don't have the same fit around my heal. And they make my feet hurt. I'm a huge fan of Brooks. And a huge fan of their Dyad shoes. I usually buy six pairs a year. These shoes aren't right, though. They just don't feel good.

I have been waiting for this new Dyad model to come out for over a year since the 10 was very narrow and uncomfortable.
The 11 fits great with immediate comfort.
Note, I wear the shoes all day but am not a runner. A very stable shoe.

I?ve owned Dyads before and this was a shadow of what those shoes were. I?m a large framed runner with wider feet and this shoe did not deliver.
The ride was very harsh with no give in the sole. The toe box (2e) was roomy but allowed for my large toes roll over the soles. I was very disappointed. Maybe I got a lemon, but I would not recommend, especially for the money.
I have returned the item.

I love these shoes and will be buying some every month for as long as you have them. I have severe RA in my feet so I have large lumps in several areas. These shoes have a boxier front on them, it fits my bunion way better than any other shoe I've worn in the last 20 years. I have to put extra cushions in because I have no natural cushioning in my feet, just bone and skin. The cushions feel great and the shoes are comfortable all day. Haven't had that in 35 years.

Very comfortable and supportive for my feet and ankles. I also have an extra wide foot so finding shoes that fit my feet are hard to find. Really enjoying my Dyad 11 shoes! Thanks Brooks!

These were great for about a month and then they just broke down. Inside is all worn out and uncomfortable. Really disappointing for the price!

If you supinate rather than pronate, this is your shoe. It levels your foot and brings you closer to a normal gate. It was recommended by my podiatrist.

Bought these for my Dad who is 76 yrs young. I also own a pair and I am built like my Dad. He and I are bow legged. Other sneakers increase my hip and knee pain but not these. The neutral to underpronation (supination) and 10mm differential works great for both of us. He called me when he received them and said his trip to Publix was like walking on a magic carpet... happy daughter over here.

I suffer from Hallux Rigidus. One of the most painful things I have gone through physically. I tried on HOKA Biondi 6, TOPO, Brooks Dyad 11. Hands down no comparison in comfort, rigidity and looks. The comfort and no pain when even walking was a miracle. Thank you Brooks R & D and Engineering for designing a shoe that lessens my struggle with this issue. Keep up the good work, you just made a customer for life! JDK-Michigan

Very comfortable, good support, slightly wider than Dyad 10. Top “mesh” material feels flimsy - will see how it holds up.

Over all they are to wide especially in the toe area. I like a shoe that is more fitted and feels conformed to my foot

First, I'm not a runner. I am, however, on my feet and running around with my PE classes all day. The Dyad 11 is cushioned in all the right places, and provides support as well. Highly recommend! Fingers crossed, I'm buying another pair on my next paycheck.

Exceeds my expectations
The inside heel material could last longer and not wear out so fast but overall my choice year in and year out
Thank you

Appreciate the wider toebox, and wider opening, only downside is the laces should be a bit longer

I purchased EE and the shoe was roomy in the toe box which I like. Otherwise, the shoe appears to be of normal size. Meaning it felt a little tight over the tight over the top of the foot and normal in the heal. This shoe fits my feet like a glove. I am wide in the toe area but normal everywhere else.

Normally buy New Balance

I am really enjoying these Dyad 11, I have been wearing NB shoes (old man shoes) for 7 yrs because of my orthotics , someone suggested these Brook’s, they are so comfortable and my orthotics fit well in them, I’m also enjoying and have had many compliments on the style!

Great shoe for someone like myself who has wide feet that are very flat. I also use a shoe orthodic and the shoe accomodates the orthodic very nicely.

Actually, I am a walker., probably 500 miles per year or thereabouts. These shoes just seem to fit well (EEEE) and cause no foot issues. Don't need any aftermarket insoles, either.

Ran in these today and they seemed a bit heavier than the Ghosts which are my favorite. The Dyad has a nice look and are fairly comfortable in general.

Shoe is very comfortable and I really like the look of it, have had them a bit over a month now wearing every day. The issue is they are useless on any surface that isn't perfectly dry. I don't run I just wear these as every day sneakers, but I've almost slipped a handful of times just walking outside if the sidewalk is damp, or in stores. I don't feel comfortable wearing these at all if there is a chance of rain. This is my 4th pair of Brooks and first time I've been disappointed. I wanted to try something other than the GTS for once as I'm tired of the look of that shoe and the lack of color options offered in a extra wide, so gave these a shot. Maybe I got a bad pair?
