Reviews
Reviews of Ecco children's shoes are very high. All parents praise the softness and comfort. The durability of the shoe is also excellent. Moisture is not allowed through. But it seems to many parents that these shoes are not suitable for winter, since they are made of thin leather, and they do not risk buying them for the winter. But those who used them note that the shoes can withstand temperatures down to -15.
Ekko women's and men's shoes also have positive reviews. The owners note that the models look great on the leg, they are comfortable, the legs do not get tired in them. Their high moisture-repellent properties are noted. But there are also disadvantages. Many people note that the feet in such shoes are freezing and they are not adapted for our cold weather. The minimum tolerable temperature is called –5 degrees. That is, this shoe can be suitable for the off-season, for shallow autumn and warm spring.
The female half does not like the design of the shoes, "too classic". But low shoes and boots have a huge number of fans. They are loved for their comfort and high quality. Another plus is the non-slip sole. Men, however, note that Ekko shoes are versatile and durable. They also receive high marks for breathability. For men, this quality is valuable, since their legs do not sweat in them, which means there is no unpleasant smell, painful sensations. These qualities are also a guarantee of health.
Paradoxically, but the disadvantages include the fact that the shoes do not wear out for too long and do not lose their external qualities. This does not allow for frequent changes of shoes and limits the variety of models. Such high quality is still more related to the advantages of this shoe. The high price of Ekko footwear is also a disadvantage. But its quality perfectly justifies such a price range.
Ekko shoes are a classic manufacturer, the quality of which does not decrease from year to year, but only grows. Due to their high characteristics - moisture resistance, breathability, stable sole, softness and high-quality material, they steadily retain their positions in the lines of fashion brands.
