Does the B.Icon 2 run true to size?

No. Buyers consistently report it runs small and narrow, and many recommend going up half or a full size.

Is it good for clay courts?

Yes. Diadora lists it for both hard surfaces and clay, and the Duratech 5000 rubber outsole is built for abrasive courts.

How does it compare with the original B.Icon?

The B.Icon 2 keeps the stable SuprellTech upper and Duratech 5000 outsole and adds the dd anima C.C.B. midsole for cushioning. It remains a stability-first shoe rather than a lightweight speed model.

Is it suitable for beginners?

Yes. Diadora designed it for all levels, and its stability and cushioning suit recreational players building their game.

What kind of cushioning does it have?

A shock-absorbing EVA insole sits over the dd anima C.C.B. midsole, which softens landings without feeling mushy.
