I loved the look of the Icarus Ascent Gen 2 Black leather shoes! The foot-shaped toe box was not so pronounced as my Altra Lone Peak 9 trail shoes, so the Icarus shoes would be good for a bit more dressy occasions where I’d like to have leather shoes,
My feet, hips, knees feel best in zero-drop shoes, but I would like hiking shoes and dress shoes that have natural foot shape and zero drop. Unfortunately, the Icarus Ascent Gen 2 didn’t fit well with my Tread Lab insoles that support my extra-high arches.
