Ecco Shoes fall apart
Theses are some pictures of Ecco shoes with rotten soles. When I wrote a blog post to vent about poorly made Ecco shoes, I found out that a lot of other people had the same problem. They would look perfect and feel great until one unlucky day when the soles would literally disintegrate without warning into mushy chunks.
Here are pictures that readers have sent in of their own rotten Ecco shoes. These shoes suck and should never be counted on for important occasions. Mowing the lawn? Sure. Job interview? Only if you're comfortable showing up barefoot.
If you want me to publish your own pictures, send them me with a note stating that I have your permission to display them here, and whether or not I should put your name on the pictures.
My Ecco shoes are junk
I bought a nice looking pair of Ecco shoes a couple years ago. Actually, they were probably the nicest shoes I've bought before or since. I don't have a reason to wear dress shoes often, but when I did, they looked nice and I was proud to have them.
About a year ago I noticed that the soles were starting to come apart. I wrote to Ecco to ask for advice, got a short reply along the lines of "we received your message and will get back to you soon", then nothing. As of about a month ago, they finished literally rotting off - the soles were disintegrating in big, soft rubbery chunks - and my mother-in-law did me a favor by having them re-soled. I wrote again to Ecco to tell them what happened but this time I haven't gotten a reply of any kind.
