Ecco

I’m one of those chaps who have a single pair of shoes for work. I buy a pair new and will wear them until they fall apart or they get tatty enough that they aren’t fit for the office. Working in London and travelling on public transport to get there, any pair of work shoes has to be comfortable for standing on the tube/tube for 40 minutes, allow me to charge up and down stairs and keep me from getting sore feet. In the past I bought a pair of Clarks shoes with the thick rubber sole – until I discovered and became an ECCO convert. As a break from my feet, lets have a brief look at ECCO. They are a Danish company founded in 1963 by a ...  Read the complete review

There is, in certain quarters, something of a stigma about ecco shoes; a school of thought that suggests that only the type of person with an Aga and labradors would wear them. Certainly when it comes to cutting edge fashion, ecco aren't at the front of the race. But as someone who's spent very many years, from 16inch platforms to scarey stilletos, sacrificing comfort for style, I've found one or two styles each season in this range that wouldn't get laughed off the catwalk. My first eccos I bought in a sale, largely because I really needed something I could stand in all day without almost crippling myself for the next week. They were a bit more ...  Read the complete review

Easily my favourite brand of shoe and boot, I am delighted to say an Ecco outlet has opened in the Oracle, Reading. Mostly flatties, and nothing much under £45, these shoes are made for walking. Many sandals are adjustable (for those with toe problems) and the range of colours is always up to date. Boots are slip on, laced or zip, suede or leather, and most have tough non'slip soles. Ecco - a little piece of heaven for your feet ...  Read the complete review

Okay, I admit Ecco is not a name you'd associate with high fashion. I'm supposed to be at an age when I put style before comfort, but I personally don't see what is so stylish about tottering around on shoes which will deform your feet and ruin your back. Ecco is a shoe shop which is probably associated with middle aged horsey types. I love them though. If you are after sexy strappy numbers this is probably not the place to go. If you are after shoes that don't require you to buy ten boxes of blister plasters then get down to your nearest Ecco shop now! I discovered Ecco when looking for some walking boots. They cost me £110, but were the only pair ...  Read the complete review
