ECCO Men's Soft 7 Long Lace Sneaker

I became a bit nervous before buying these after reading some of the reviews. Some said it was fake leather, they ran narrow, they run too big or the construction was a bit shoddy. I found the complete opposite! Ecco makes a quality product. The leather and craftsmanship is outstanding! They are the real deal! They manufacture these in European sizes. Which would be confusing. So to the US sizing it would feel a bit bigger. I would size down. I also would recommend removing the shoe laces and relace the shoe again to your liking. That I would believe would address the narrow feel to the shoe issue and allow you to adjust the vamp better. Plenty of room in the toebox and the heel pocket has superb support. The foot bed is somewhat cushion and has a very good arch support. I find it’s styling in my opinion to be somewhere between a casual shoe in a sneaker, which makes it good for both and will be my new every day walking shoes. Ecco will definitely have my business in the future.

I've been wearing Ecco's for decades. This model is the one I've worn for the last decade (this is the 2nd or 3rd pair...they last so long I can't keep track). I also have Ecco dress shoes and golf shoes. I know my Euro size, and, so the only difficulty this time was that the size was given in US size. I took my best guess, and it was correct -- the shoes arrived and were my usual Euro size, and, as per usual, fit perfectly. They look exactly as before, well made, and I expect that they will last, at least, a few years. Haven't really worn them much, yet, but they feel comfortable and I expect they will be. For me, I cannot go wrong buying Ecco's and these were on sale, so the price was nice, as well.

I tried these on in a local store before buying because I have “Fred Flintstone” 10.5E feet. I was shocked to find the EU44/US10/10.5 fit me okay. Looser laces compensate enough to fit comfortably.Style is minimalist and versatile. I was so pleased that I bought these in black also!ECCO has a unique insole design that gives excellent arch support and feels a bit odd at first. But they know what they’re doing. These have become more comfortable as time goes on.The company also attaches the sole to the upper in a unique way that, I suspect, should mean that I won’t split the sides out like I do on every other shoe I buy.As a man, I see a basic white sneaker, but I have discovered that women appreciate these even more? I get unsolicited compliments all the time. Women are weird. And these sneakers rock!

Like most guys, I needed something to fill that gap between gym shoes and dress shoes. I've always liked the looks of these Ecco sneakers, but never had a pair. When I decided to give these a try I had a hard time deciding on a color! I was back-n-forth between Mahogany, Black, White, and the color I went with (Magnet). I am REALLY glad I got this color. My photos make them look like they have a blueish cast to them, but in person they're a dark grey. I seriously like this color. It goes great with both light-washed and dark jeans, as well as different shades of khaki chinos. The leather is really soft and of high quality. Super comfortable right out of the box.The only negative (if you can call it one) is that they run very large. I typically wear a 9.5 or 10 depending on the shoe, so I ordered these in size 43 (9 - 9.5) and they were more like a 10.5, so I ordered the 42 (8 - 8.5) and they fit perfectly. There is no way I could wear a 8 or 8.5 in any other shoe, but in this shoe it's perfect. I'm returning the size 43 pair.

I was worried about these shoes for a few reasons:1. They were expensive2. I've never heard about them3. I didn't know if these ran big, small, too wide....Well I got them. Tried them on, and now I will only by ECCO sneakers. I've had them now for over a year. You'd think they were still new. Bottoms look like new and they still feel great. Not more one could say except if you're reading this go ahead and it the add to cart button. You won't regret it.

I am a big fan of ECCO shoes to begin with and these sneakers did not disappoint. What I really like is the fact that the trim is not white on these. I do like that look, especially with shorts in the summer months, but these give you another option to wear as you go into the winter months and wear allot more jeans instead of shorts. I guess I would say they make you look a little more dressed up (if that's possible with sneakers : ). Plus you don't have to worry about the white trim getting dirty as the black hides allot more. As with all my ECCO shoes the fit is great , the comfort is excellent and the workmanship is top notch. If you take care of a pair of ECCO shoes it will last a very long time. Can't got wrong with these shoes.

I wore a pair of these same shoes out! Used to keep them as my work-casual shoes for teaching all day, but after a while they became my everyday shoe. Soon enough they had paint, mud, etc on them - time to replace. To avoid leaving the house I took a leap of faith in Ecco’s quality (I’ve had two pairs and loved both) and ordered these here. No regrets; fit just as expected and look great.My only complaint would be that the shoes tend to collect things while working in the yard. I’m constantly dumping them out, however it’s worth it as these things keep my feet comfortable all day long. And the old pair I have will remain my everyday shoe - it’s merely a cosmetic thing at this moment.
