Finally the Cascadia 11 has emerged. The design looks like it will be less prone to ripping in front of the laces like on the Cascadia 10. I’m only seeing it at REI, not Zappos or Amazon. Ugly color combo but whatever.

Looks like a real tight foot box. My experience with Brooks was exceedingly poor. Got about 200 miles on them before the were flat and sole were worn off. Those were the 5's I think. I'm liking the Altras these days. Plus they come in 15s.
Looks much more like the older versions that my friends and I on the AT got 500+ miles on them without a failure in most cases. Glad to see them go back to that design!
Glad to see some updates (even if my feet can't fit in the Brooks footbox anymore). The Cascadia 10s were easily the most universally hated piece of gear among thru-hikers (at least in my various bubbles) when I was out on the PCT this year, which is kind of impressive given the Cascadia's usual status as the unofficial official shoe of the PCT. I'll still probably stick with my Altras, but I'm glad these are at least back as an option.
