Customer Reviews ECCO Soft 7 Sneaker

Very attractive sneakers, but the leather was stiff and the seams bothered me. Reluctantly returning them.

The fit was too small - I wear 8 1/2 - this sneaker was like an 8

Love the style, and color -the leather is just beautiful. But, even with this more expensive shoe, the cut is too slender - particularly the toe box. My heel is narrow, but my toes are wide. A B usually is good enough - (and wide is too wide) - in this shoe, the toe fit is like a 1/2 size too slender. So disappointed!

I'm really disappointed to be returning this shoe. I bought my standard size and the fit was great. The soles felt very comfortable and the shoes were very cute. It is one of the few shoes that I didn't have my heel slip in when walking as well, but when walking the seams on the toe of one of the shoes rubbed very painfully on my foot and I won't be keeping them. My left foot is slightly larger than my right and this is the foot I was feeling the seam on. So maybe if you are on the smaller end of your size you won't feel it, because I didn't feel it on the right shoe.

I wear a 12N/M and have narrow heels, low instep, I ordered the white and the vanilla metallic, which is a very nice neutral color. I walked around the house with these and realized there is not much padding for my boney feet and my foot moved forward anomy toe bumped against the end of the shoe. I think I would have been fine with another 1/2 size up but it was a no go for these. Even though the shoe is a medium, it's very narrow and I couldn't wear my low cut socks with them. they have leather insoles so would be fine to wear barefoot.

IT'S A GREAT LOOKING SHOE BUT THE SEAM JUST ABOVE THE TOES IS QUITE UNCOMFORTABLE

The top inside flaps of the shoe felt hard against my foot. The size and fit were fine, but the seams rubbed my foot with each step. I needed these shoes for lots of walking, so I could not risk it- especially for the price. My husband loves the men’s pair he purchased of the Ecco brand.

I ordered size 10, way too small. The size 11 was way too large. Arch support was medium

I bought the ECCO 7 Sneaker in Euro size 38 (US 7-7.5) and Euro size 39 (US 8-8.5) as described on Zappos. The 38 was too tight in the toebox and the 39 was too big everywhere. I am a 7.5 Medium. The tags inside the shoes say EU 38/ US 7 and EU 39/ US 8. It's clear to me that this Euro shoe is not meant for my 7.5 medium feet. Going up or down a Euro size is not a option for me. Lesson learned by me and I will try to avoid Euro sized shoes in the future. My thanks to Zappos for their outstanding service.

I'm very disappointed. I have a lot of trouble finding footwear that fits and these shoes do fit, however there is absolutely no cushioning, it's like walking directly on the ground and my feet can't take that. If I put my orthotics in, my heel slips, and if I use a Dr. Scholl's double cushion insole, there's more cushioning but not enough arch support. I expected more from Ecco. Sadly, I think I will have to return these.

This is the fifth or sixth time I've ordered these shoes and have alway loved them, until now. the fit is so different than the others. Very loose in the heel, constantly pulls my socks down and is just generally uncomfortable. This so often seems to happen, find a great brand and rather than leaving them great, they change them. I'm so disappointed as these were my trusted walking shoes. No longer.

Zappos sent me a used pair of shoes. They arrived with dirty toes and grass stains on the sides and back. I am beyond livid. I should have known something was wrong when they came wrapped in plastic instead of in a shoebox.

Nice shoe. I've been wearing Eccos for a long time and have always worn the size 7-7.5. When I tried on my new shoes in this size, they were huge on my feet. Did Ecco change their sizing by chance?

I have 3 pairs of the Soft 7 from 2020. Reordered exact pairs, and they are a full size larger. Ecco, did you change the last?

True to size, very comfortable, extremely well made. The dark blue does not work with the dresses I was hoping to wear them with. Will consider another color.

Before you give up on these shoes as too narrow, loosen the laces (a lot) and widen the shoe. They come from the factory laced together very tightly and seem very narrow. The loosened laces will allow the shoe to expand width-wise and there is plenty of tongue width to cover. It does mean that you'll have more laces showing across the top of your foot, but if you look at the images others have provided you will see that. I find them comfortable and easy to break in. I spray with a suede or leather shoe protector product to help keep them clean and reduces scuffs. Also adds a good deal of water protection for rainy days but I still wouldn't take them wading. Cute, classic, fashionable. I have a average foot and arch with moderately high instep. No bunions, etc. I own several pairs in different colors and can walk miles in them. Insole is removable if you need a different one or an orthodontic.

I love these shoes but they slip up on my heel even with the correct size so had to return.

I don't like sneakers to be clunky, and these fit the bill. I don't think I would wear them for any athletic activity, but for everyday use, they are perfect. I took the advice of reviewers who recommended ordering a half size up, and that worked out well for me. Oh, and they don't hurt my neuroma!

I love Ecco brand shoes!! I have these same shoes in the medium brown color and I wear them all the time. I finally decided to spend the money and get the black ones too. Ecco shoes are very pricey but so worth the investment. They last a really long time and never seem to look worn out. I can spend a full day of shopping or cooking in the kitchen and my feet never hurt. Love love love these shoes!!!!

I am consistently between 8.5 and 9. I was fearful that the 8-8.5 would be too small but it was perfect. I wore them for two weeks exclusively on vacation without breaking them in—has a bit of a sore toe but nothing major. They are very comfortable.

The fit and size are perfect, even though I have very narrow feet. I can tie the laces tight enough so that they don't slip off. They are very comfortable and really stylish for a sneaker-type shoe. I wear them with jeans and slacks also. I also have them in a copper color. They are great!

I have worn these twice now walking in Europe & they are very comfortable. They still look good even after being in rain. They look nice with capris, slacks, & even dresses. I continue to wear them now with jeans. I have recommended them to several friends.

These are so cute - and I really wanted them to work. They are a true 11. Also they don't have mush arch support- some - but not like Vionic. I could have done insoles if the size worked. I need at 11.5 usually now- my feet are growing with age. with a sock I need a 12 and these just didn't quite work. It's so hard to find Womens shoes in a 12. I will try some mens styles. :-(

The fit of these shoes was perfect. The problem was the left shoe felt great and the right shoe felt like my sock was bunched up below my toes. Changed socks twice, found my socks weren't bunched up, and the shoe STILL felt like something was wrong with the right shoe. Gave up!

This is a great shoe! Although the rose color did not quite work for me, the style and construction of this shoe is outstanding. I wore this shoe, in red, on a tour of France a few years ago and it could not have been better - and came out of soaking rains and cobbled streets in perfect condition. I cannot recommend this shoe highly enough - but do be aware that the (same) shoe size can vary somewhat.
