Ascent Reviews

Awesome shoes

Great shoes! Well worth the money! I was on the fence about buying them and I am so glad I did. I wear them every single day. They are my go to shoes. !!

Ascent Shoe

The shoes are very comfortable out of the box. They seem to be very well constructed. I have been wearing them everyday, all day at work. No feet or leg fatigue. I have had salomons, merrells and danners. All have had their faults. These seem to be of better quality than those.

My husband was very happy

My husband was very happy with his present and said “ wow, they are very comfortable and I look expensive 😂

Great

Fantastic shoes. Last long and comfy

Ascent shoes

I have nothing bad to say about Sitka itself but the shoes wear terrible. I thought with wearing them a few days to break in would help but I was wrong. I think I would rather strap a 2x4 to my feet and walk around.

Comfortable

I’m a school Teacher and we walk a lot. These shoes are absolutely awesome. I ordered a second pair and will be ordering a 3rd.

Great shoes - super light and fantastic fit.

Sized normal, 11’s fit like 11’s in many other brands I have. Nice and light!

Great!!!

My husband loves them!!!

Again?

They filled out the middle sizes with half sizes. The top and bottom of the scale are still only good if you wear a whole size? Come on.

Best shoes ever ? !!

The fit is tight, and the material is superb. The style is kickin'. What more could you ask for !?

I wear the all black Ascents on duty and they have been great! I did have to change out the laces to replace the reflective ones issued with them but other than that they’ve been great and fit true to size

Great shoe!

Just like all Sitka products! First day I wore them I could never tell they were brand new! Love these shoes!

Very comfortable

Very comfortable

No arch support like walking barefoot on concrete

Hard soles and too expensive for the quality compared to what’s out there now

Great looking shoe

Sharp looking shoe that is rugged enough for my needs.

good so far

i thought there would be a little more cushion, but I still like them,

Perfect Shoe👍

Amazing for hiking and everyday use. Fit true to size.

Bought these shoes for work.

Bought these shoes for work. As a mailman 55 miles in they are comfortable, durable, and have a solid grip.

Lied too

I got an email from Sitka asking for a review and they would give me 15% off my order. I made the review and they never gave me the 15% off. Customer Service wont respond. So here I am leaving an updated review. Sitka customer service is trash. These shoes are over priced junk. The cushion is good. But they are way too narrow even going up a size. Instant blisters. Tread is good if you are walking on carpet. But in the real world outside, its trash. Its not going to hold up and doesn't do well on wet surfaces. Has potential but falls well short of being worth the price. Just like Sitkas trash customer service. Save yourself the money. Sitka has become an over priced fashion company. They care more about the looks then any real world applications.

Awesome shoe!

Great fit , no problems!

Has Potential But Needs Work

The cushioning is spot on. Not too much and not so little. The midsolendoes need time to break in. So it will feel like walking on concrete for a few days. Speaking of concrete. Not sure how well the midsole will hold up using this as a work shoe, which I want to do. Thats the good. The bad.....the outsole really needs to be Vibram. Sitka's brand is "okay". But for superior grip and peace of mind, I would go with Vibram. It also is very narrow. Seems to be par for the course in 99% of shoes these days. Companies trying to pinch every penny they can at the expense of the customer. They dont offer them in wide which is insane in this day in age. Not sure if sizing up would help as the shoe also cuts inwards at the base of pinky toe very sharply and causes almost instant blisters. I think sizing up would still cause that same issue. Theres no fix for that. So I have a $150 pair of paper weights I cant do much with. Can't return them as one needs to test them outside for a full review. They did feel good to walk in as far as being light weight, having a bounce in the step, being mobile/agile. But the narrow essential and instant blisters from the pinky toe are a no go.

Very comfortable with stable sole.

Very comfortable with stable sole. Use them for hiking, hunting, time outside. Ordered a pair of the Gore-Tex. Taking a while for them to be delivered.

Nice lightweight and rugged shoe

My son wears these for everything. Bow hunting, work, gym class. Says the are water resistant and lightweight.

Ascent Shoe

Very comfortable shoe, looks great also for wearing around town

I'm mixed on these as

I'm mixed on these as of right now. They are pretty comfortable. But very slippery on wet metal surfaces. The tred is already starting to wear off. I do t think I'd ever purchase them again.

Really comfortable, look good, excellent stability and breathable materials.

Great shoe, just a tad long

Measured my foot and got the correct size according to the size chart but the shoe is still just a bit too long. Other than that it’s an amazing shoe and I still wear them hunting.

Love it, very comfortable!

Nice Shoe, Poor Fit for Me

I put on the shoe and and didn’t immediately discomfort but after wearing for ~10 min in the house found that the upper sides by where the laces go through was too high and dug into my ankle. I could tell that I’d have sore spots/blisters if I kept wearing them so ended up returning unfortunately.

Really like these shoes

They are very comfortable and stable

A little surprise and I wear it all day

Still don’t have time to go off road hiking, I have Hoka Speedgoat and Altra Olympus, it’s comparable. Go to REI compare with Salomon Ultra 5. Well, the traction of Ascent win. A few better design and applications on this shoe. May develop another version for Zero drop or carbon shank next.
