Expensive shoes. Well worth the price. I travel and walk a lot. These are as good as I have found for myself.

Very comfortable but too fancy for everyday all round use. Okay if you just walk on pavement. The tough "Yak" leather succumbed to an almost instant toe smile upon wearing.

This is an excellent shoe, probably one of the only walking shoes left on the market that doesn't over correct your natural movement (you can actually bend this shoe). I tried a lot of shoes before deciding to spend 50% more than I ever have, but consider that ECCO is a reputable company for quality, the shoes are extremely comfortable, the PU soles last 3x longer than EVA (standard shoes) and if you choose the Yak leather it lasts 3x longer than Cow leather. In a world where walking shoes have been eclipsed by running shoes, Ecco does deserve some business for keeping in the market, and New Balance IMHO deserves to lose some business for leaving it. The comparable Asics and New Balance walkers were terrible. The mesh is very attractive, but I chose leather for durability. The leather does look good though, but not as cool as the mesh. They might be discontinuing the leather as Zappos wasn't getting my size in stock so I had to purchase through another supplier. Support Zappos though, nobody can beat their price or service, especially with Eccos.

The Biom shoes are the most comfortable shoes I have every worn. The quality and attention to detail are well worth the higher price. I have bought 2 more pair since I purchased the Biom Walk 1.1, one pair for golf and another for workouts. They are great!

These are my favorite shoes. I am on my feet all day and the still feel just as good at the end of the day.

I recently had back surgery and was looking for a good athletic style walking shoe. I bought a pair of the Ecco Biom Walk 5 weeks ago. They do what they say. I'm very happy with them and will be buying more of the Biom series.

Just got this Biom Walk. Well constructed and very comfortable. Fit is excellent. Highly recommended. Now the nits: 1) That split achilles thing rubs on both sides of my tendon. Not bad, and I'm sure I'll adapt, but it's useless and an unnecessary annoyance. 2) The Yak tag is absurd. I'll black it out, so again not a huge deal. But why? I know, label lovers. I don't like labels and don't like people who do. I don't need "look at me" shoes to persuade people I'm significant. 3) That glowing tag on the tongue? Again, I'll black it out, but see nit #2. Seriously, that's a terrible design element. 4) Biom all over the laces? Geez. Easily replaced, but awful. Why not just put flashing lights on them? They're great shoes, you just need to design them for secure grown-ups.

My husband really liked the casual look of this shoe. Unfortunately, the area around the heel/ankle is too high and rubbed his achilles tendon uncomfortably. At first we thought we got the wrong size, but after trying 1/2 a size larger, he encountered the same problem.

Holy smokes, are these comfortable! Believe me, I'm an overweight, middle-aged man who decided to start walking to get in shape, but historically, my feet hurt after the first half mile. I'm up to three miles and have lost 20 pounds. With these shoes and the right socks anyone can get out and get active.

I tour internationally with a major symphony orchestra and, therefore, do a lot of walking. For years I've looked for a very comfortable pair of walking shoes that look casual but not tennis shoe (ish). With the Ecco Biom shoes I have found both. They're great for a four or five mile walk and look decent enough for a nice bistro or cafe. I'm not real fond of the orange accent but I like the general look. The fit is good, there's good arch support, and they're soft enough on hard pavement.

You will not to break in these shoes. Right off they are ready to wear. They are very light. The yak leather very smooth and soft. Recommend very highly.

Very nice, well manufactured and comfortable shoes. Have been wearing them daily for 7 months, and they still look like new. Top leather is so flexible and nice looking. Easily cleaned. They worth the money paid for. Very pleased with Zappos and Ecco.
