FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for custom orthotics?
Yes, the ECCO Soft 2.0 features a removable microfibre-covered inlay sole with ECFS™ technology, making it ideal for inserting your custom orthotic insoles.
What material are the shoes made from?
The uppers are crafted from premium, full-grain leather, and they feature a soft textile lining for breathability.
How do I clean my ECCO Soft 2.0 shoes?
For the leather uppers, wipe with a damp cloth and use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. The removable insoles can be aired out or gently hand-washed and air-dried.
Are these shoes good for all-day wear?
Yes, the ECCO Soft 2.0 is renowned for its exceptional fit, soft, light, and flexible construction, and chiropodist recommendations, making it highly comfortable for all-day wear and walking.
What does 'chrome-free method' for leather processing mean?
It refers to an environmentally conscious tanning process used in ECCO's own tanneries, reducing the use of chromium, a common chemical in traditional leather production.
Can I adjust the fit of these shoes?
Absolutely. The lace-up design allows for full adjustment down the entire front of the shoe, enabling you to customize the fit to your preference and foot shape.
Are these shoes wide-fitting?
The ECCO Soft 2.0 is known for its accommodating shape and full adjustment capabilities. While not explicitly stated as 'wide-fitting,' its design often suits a variety of foot widths, especially with adjustable laces and removable insoles.
Troubleshooting
My custom orthotics don't fit properly.
Ensure you have completely removed the original ECCO insole. If your orthotics are particularly thick, check if they are designed for shoes with removable insoles. If issues persist, consult your orthotic provider.
Shoes feel too tight or loose.
The lace-up design allows for full adjustment. Loosen or tighten the laces along the entire front of the shoe to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Experiment with different lacing patterns if needed.
My feet feel sweaty or unventilated.
The textile lining offers breathability, but ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking socks. Remove the insoles periodically to air out the shoes. If necessary, use shoe deodorizers.
Leather appears dull or dry.
Regularly clean and condition the premium full-grain leather uppers. Use a quality leather cleaner followed by a leather conditioner to moisturize and protect the material. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Setup

- Lacing: Thread the laces through the eyelets and adjust them to your desired snugness.
- Initial Fit: Wear the shoes with your preferred socks. Walk around to ensure comfort and check for any pressure points. Utilize the full adjustment to customize the fit to your foot's unique shape.
Compatibility
- Orthotics: The removable microfibre-covered inlay sole with ECFS™ technology is specifically designed to be easily removed, making these shoes highly compatible with most custom orthotic insoles. Simply remove the existing insole and replace it with your orthotic.
- Socks: These shoes pair well with various sock types, from thin liners to thicker walking socks, depending on personal comfort and weather.
Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your ECCO Soft 2.0 shoes:
- Cleaning Leather Uppers: Wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for full-grain leather. Apply a leather conditioner regularly to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
- Insole Care: The removable insole can be taken out for airing to maintain freshness. If necessary, gently hand wash the insole with mild soap and water, then allow it to air dry completely before reinserting.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place, ideally with shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
