During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $13.0 million related to the Ripka Brand trademarks, driven by delays and uncertainty in implementing the brick-and-mortar retail store strategy for a portion of the brand, primarily as a result of the novel coronavirus disease pandemic. The net carrying amount of the Ripka Brand trademarks (which were considered finite-lived intangible assets effective as of January 1, 2020) immediately prior to the impairment was approximately $17.2 million; following the impairment, the remaining balance of approximately $4.2 million became the new gross carrying basis for the Ripka Brand trademarks.

No other intangible asset impairment charges were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Amortization expense for intangible assets for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $5.6 million and $4.6 million, respectively.

The trademarks of the Isaac Mizrahi Brand have been determined to have indefinite useful lives and accordingly, no amortization has been recorded for those intangible assets.

Estimated future amortization expense related to finite-lived intangible assets over the remaining useful lives is as follows:
