Shoes that fit Zamst A2-DX brace?

I’ve been using the ASO braces, but tried the Zamst today and vastly prefer them.

I currently have the OG Wave Enforce Tour and the Zamst (and to some extent the ASO) really stretch out the ankle/collar area.

I always have braces on when playing so it’s not an inherent issue but I’m wondering what shoes people have used with this specific brace with good results? Unlike the more common ASO design they use rigid plastic guards so takes up more volume in the collar area.

Looking at the B Icon, Rush Tour 5, Torneo but really open to anything that’s worked well with Zamst style braces.
 
Not familiar with the Zamst model, but if it's any help, I find the B-Icon 3 heel collar to be pretty high and tight. I get some malleolus irritation from it. With ankle supports, I personally would avoid any high collar shoe myself. Another thing to think about is the shoe length with Diadora. Check the size charts for the metric/EU sizing and not the US.
The Wilson RT5 has an average height heel collar.

Thank you! In case anyone else comes across this in the future: I ended up trying the Lacoste AGLT-Pro and so far it's working very well for me. I had the same collar height concern with the Diadora, and the RT5 solves that but sits a little less close to the ground, which I feel results in less ankle proprioception. The AGLT-Pro does require a bit of break in, in the collar area (for braces), and toebox (in general) but so far so good.
