This season, ECCO shoes have launched a super-varied collection of both women’s and men’s shoes, from stylish, hybrid GORE-TEX ankle boots to low-top and high-top takes on the classic sneaker, revamped with a minimalistic look.
We picked a handful of styles from the ECCO lookbook with the aim of showcasing a little something for all tastes.
[Soft 7 Bootie]
ECCO sent us the cozy Soft 7 Low Bootie in black, crafted from supple leather and nubuck with a double-zipper. They come in three colours: Warm Grey/Powder, Bordeaux and Black.
We like the sleek look of these with ECCO’s own Comfort Fibre System® that boosts air circulation inside the shoe for freshness. They’re fully lined and include a removable, leather-covered inlay sole for orthotics wearers.
KEY FEATURES
– Practical urban-inspired boot with sleek, minimalist styling
– Manufactured using a full anatomical last for premium comfort
– Hardwearing direct-injected PU outsole flexes with your step to promote relaxed walking
The Soft 7’s are also available in a low profile, contemporary sneaker version sporting laces and removable inlay sole. Both versions, $190.
[CREPETRAY™ Hybrid Boot]
The ankle-length CREPETRAY™ Hybrid Boot is a fresh take on the classic, workwear-inspired boot. It’s made from rich, classic ECCO leather and set on a unique CREPETRAY™ rubber outsole. Its soft, round-toe design is both stylish and comfortable for cooler weather. These boots also sport a buckle accent and secure inside zip closure. $230
KEY FEATURES
– GORE-TEX® membrane provides durable, breathable waterproofing
– FLUIDFORM™ is a direct injection process that uses fluid materials to follow our one-of-a-kind anatomical lasts and form the most comfortable base for your shoe
– CREPETRAY™ outsole is a revolutionary update on traditional crepe platforms that benefits from being a reduced-weight platform that responds to the shape of the foot, offering a more natural feel
[Leisure Tie]
ECCO’s Leisure Tie is an updated version of the classic sneaker, using full-grain, super-thin ECCO BYFOLD leather and inlay sole technology meant to keep cool on warmer days while providing a glove-like fit. These come with a matching leather travel bag to keep them looking great season after season.
KEY FEATURES
– Direct-injected P.U outsole with ECCO FLUIDFORM™ Technology ensures a lightweight and flexible finish so you can keep moving with ease
– Leather-covered inlay sole with ECFS™ boosts air circulation, so you can enjoy the optimum inner climate whatever the weather
These come in Petal Trim (light terracotta red), Pavement (muted blue) and Black. $170
[Soft 8]
The three-strap, ultra-modern Soft 8 Strap Sneaker comes in both black and white and is super sleek with its full-grain finish! Its interior is anatomically designed for comfortable foot support while the flexible and light white sole provides a subtle height boost. Style yours with jeans or tailored trousers. $200
KEY FEATURES
– Full leather lining for comfort and breathability
– Removable leather covered inlay sole provides the option to increase width
– Direct-injected two-component sole is hardwearing yet supple
[Exostrike]
The Exostrike provides an ideal way to transition from local hikes to city jaunts. Smooth leather uppers are offset with a colour contrasting collar, textile laces and heel cap.
They’re durable, stylish and practical, created using water-resistant ECCO yak leather with a nubuck finish. ECCO also uses FLUIDFORM™, a direct-injection process incorporating fluid materials to form the most comfortable base possible.
KEY FEATURES
– GORE-TEX® membrane provides durable, breathable waterproofing
– Reduced-weight PHORENE™ midsole provides additional shock absorption and ensures the boot remains comfortable, even in sub-zero conditions
– Removable inlay sole delivers optimal in-shoe comfort and optional extra width when taken out
Available in three colours: Mocha/Rose Dust, Camel/Gravel and Black/Wild Dove. $250
[Corksphere]
The Corksphere leather sneaker is detailed with a colour-coordinated lacing system, stitching and handy loop in back. ECCO’s proprietary CORKSPHERE™ cork inlay sole adapts to the curves of your foot for a customized fit. Corksphere’s a hightop, classy urban shoe that can dress down or up as an alternative to flats.
As with all ECCO footwear, this one is also produced in the company’s own gold star-rated tanneries. Corksphere comes in Volluto (light tan) and Black and a low version is also available in those same two colours plus Wild Dove (grey) for $200. $220
