FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
The ECCO Exostride is designed for breathability. While the leather offers some natural resistance, they are not classified as waterproof.
Can I use these for long-distance hiking?
They are ideal for walking and light trails, but for multi-day trekking on technical or wet mountain terrain, a specialized hiking boot may be preferred.
How do I clean the rubber outsole?
Use warm water and a mild soap with a stiff brush to clear debris from the tread patterns, then allow to air dry away from heat sources.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The Exostride typically provides an anatomical, glove-like fit that matches standard sizing, though individual preferences for sock thickness may vary.
What is FLUIDFORM technology?
It is an ECCO-exclusive process where liquid material is injected into a mold to create a sole that is fused directly to the upper, providing superior cushioning and structural integrity.
Troubleshooting
Leather surface appearing dry or faded
Apply a high-quality leather conditioning spray or cream formulated for nubuck to restore moisture and color.
Insole losing comfort over time
The integrated footbed is designed for durability, but if support diminishes, it may be replaced with a compatible aftermarket insole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ECCO Exostride shoes, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While the leather is designed for a glove-like fit, wear them for short walks initially to allow the FLUIDFORM midsole to fully adapt to your unique stride.
- Cleaning: Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dry dirt or mud from the nubuck. For deeper cleaning, use products specifically designed for nubuck leather to avoid staining.
- Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to stiffen or fade over time.
- Maintenance: Periodically apply a nubuck-safe water repellent spray to protect the material from moisture and dirt accumulation.
