Ascent Avara shoe
I bought the Ascent Avara shoe for work from Athletes Foot. It has a good solid heel and base. The insole has arch support and is very comfortable. Nice black leather lace up shoe.
Hi Jade,
Thank you for your review. It is great to hear that you are happy with the Avara!...
Read more Kind regards, Team AscentI have been buying Ascent Footwear for my daughters for school for years. I won’t buy anything else. Superior quality.
Very satisfied with range, quality and service. I won’t buy anything else. The product has lasted well over 12 months and have been purchasing this product for several years now.
Hi Wendy, thank you for being a loyal customer. It is great to hear that you are satisfied with our product. We hope we can continue to provide the range, quality and service for your family for years to come!
Good product
I picked up a prescription of as shoes in Newcastle over 15 years ago, using probably twice a week and just now the sole ( rubber) is starting to lift. Will be taking to a boot repairer to have filed if possible to use a bit longer. New ones a bit out of my price range now
Thanks ASCENT
Hi Leister, thank you for your review. It is great to hear the shoes have lasted you so long!

Highly Recommend
Bought Apex senior for my son and they lasted 2 years ! His foot is very broad so the extra width options were perfect. Could have gone another 6 months but he needed to go up a size for this new school year . Out preformed Clarks for durability and way more comfortable than doc martens on his arch. Highly recommend !
Hi Lee, thank you for your review. It is great to hear your son has been happy with the Apex! With four different width options in the Apex, we want to make sure every school child can achieve the prefect fit.
Lasted 2.5 months
Spent double for the Ascent Apex shoes for my son and they lasted 2.5 months. The front sole wore away then broke off. No refund from the retailer. Not as great as they sound, warranty not honoured

After 2 years: still like brand new!
I bought a pair of Contours 2 years ago and have worn them almost everyday to work. I bought them because I had a knee injury and wanted to support my arch and my knee. They are brilliant and still look like new and are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. If they ever wear out, I'll buy another pair!

Ascent Avara is incredibly good!
My wife is a busy Registered Nurse in aged care. On-shift, she is responsible for some 60 beds in a high care facility and during a normal shift, she can cover about 10km around the facility which includes up and down stairs (tracked with an app on her phone). After a shift, she often walked home, about 3km. Incredibly, her Avaras lasted 8 years, and they still have life in them!! There are no signs of delamination and the inner soles are still in remarkably good condition and quite serviceable. She has always said they have been the most comfo...
Read morertable shoes she has ever owned and said if it were up to her, she would mandate them for all nursing staff. She was joking of course as she does not believe in mandates, but these shoes from an Aussie company have certainly proved themselves. :)Great school shoes
We've had ascenr for our girls for years. They've been hard wearing and comfortable. Thank goodness not made in China.

Boots disintegrated within 3. Worst boots I've ever had. Bitterly disappointing.
Purchased the boots in December on the recommendation of my podiatrist and the retailer, by the end of March, the sole had split and started peeling off. This is a totally unacceptable outcome.
I have worked in the building industry as an electrician for 30 years, and have never had a pair of boots disintegrate so quickly. In my opinion, these are not satisfactory work boots if they can't handle basic tasks for 3 months.
I am now in a position, where in the middle of a health crisis, I have no work boots and limited shops open to find and try new boots - fantastic!
Useless.
Hi Greg,
We are so sorry to see this has happened to your boots. ...
Read more We never want our customers to have this kind of experience. Based on the information you've provided, this sounds like a manufacturing fault with the outsole. Unfortunately, this has been a rare issue with some of our Safety products and based on this we have recently changed manufacturers to ensure this fault does not occur in the future. As per our email communication with you, if you could please bring your shoes back to either The Athlete's Foot or the retail store that was the place of purchase, they will assess the shoes and follow procedures from there. Please let us know if we can help further, apologies again. Sincerely, Team Ascent- 12 reviews

Total disappointment Alpha safety boots
I work 12 hour shifts and i am on my feet all day. I bought these boots as they claimed they are safety boots more like sneakers. Plus the name athletes foot you would trust to get it right. How wrong was I. They were the most uncomfortable boots I had ever worn. They were not cheap either.
When I was wearing the boots I could actually feel objects through the boots. Not ideal for working on a construction site.
I cannot comment on the longevity on these boots as I did not wear them long enough.
Dear Sir,
We greatly apologise for the experience you had in our Alpha Safety Boots. We would appreciate the opportunity to remediate the situation....
Read more As you did not purchase the shoes from us directly, please return the shoes to the store you purchased them at in order to start the returns process. The store will walk you through its exchange and returns policy in order to assist you with a different pair. Kindest regards, Team Ascent- 4 reviews
ADELA Buckle not even 3 terms.
As with Mandy we went with an Ascent shoe this year. My daughter was fond of the flower inner sole and Athletes Foot sold me on the invisible scuff protection. We're had to chuck them part way through term three due to scuffed and damaged toes plus a broken buckel. We've gone back to the Clarke's shoes we were wearing last year for the remainder of this year and will not be making the same mistake again next year. The Ascent runners are AMAZING and will see the year through well and truly. The school shoe is just so disappointing.
