ECCOHelsinki, Men's Loafers

I like Ecco’s. Nice fit and comfortable. Had to buy online as this shoe was 45 euro cheaper than in ireland.

Can’t wear any other shoes other than ecco

Good time to receive this material.

I have been buying ECCO shoes since 2009, my work colleague advised me to get a pair as my shoes which I use to buy from a Tall Mans shop kept on splitting after about 3 months of use. Once I bought my first pair, I was converted. The comfort of the shoes are great, the soles which are very good in wet or slippery conditions. And finally the wear and tear, most of my shoes have lasted over a year which is something I never experienced before with other shoes. I would definitely recommend them.

This is not the top end of the market, but nevertheless they remain nice shoes and reasonably good value for money. Recommended. They will wear out sooner or later and you won’t be able to re-sole them but they are reasonably smart and extremely comfortable.

i have used ecco for 10 years. good shoe at cheaper prices. perfect.

About 15 years ago, I bought a pair of half price Ecco Helsinki shoes. They were the most comfortable shoes I'd ever worn. What's more, the Ecco Helsinkis lasted for years and years before the soles started to fail. When they did fail, I simply got them resoled, giving me years more use out of them. So, why 'Buyer Beware!' ? Well, I ordered a pair of Ecco Helsinki shoes 18 months ago, and now the soles have started to fail. I took the shoes to the same cobbler I used before, and he said he couldn't resole the Ecco Helsinkis. When I asked why, the cobbler said that he can resole shoes with rubber or leather soles, but not soles made of "that crumbly stuff" - i.e. cheapo, corner cutting, man made soles. I feel annoyed that such a great company like Ecco used to be, is now producing shoes of a lower standard than before. It's lost a future customer.

I ordered a 44 instead of my usual 43 and they fit perfectly (based upon other reviews and a previous pair that I owned).These shoes are however SECONDS as evidenced by the inner corner cut from each heel. I didn’t notice these in the pictures prior to the purchase and Amazon don’t mention this in the text which is underhand. I dislike the cutting of shoe heels as it cheapens the look when the soles are showing.The shoes fit me and do appear to be okay though and of good manufacture hence the 4 stars.
