Customer Reviews ECCO Sport Yucatan Sandal

I had a previous pair of Ecco sandals which were very comfortable and lasted a few years. When I came to replace them, the size information was worn off, so I didn't know exactly which size to order again (sizes can be very different between different shoe companies). I tried calling Ecco USA, hoping that if I gave them the measurements of my existing sandals then they could tell me what size that would be, but they were extremely unhelpful. Still, these were very comfortable sandals, so I decided to order some from Zappos. Zappos customer service was superlative, by the way. I have absolutely no problem recommending them to anybody. Free overnight shipping, are you kidding??? Ecco, on the other hand, I am having some second thoughts about. Previously, I have been recommending them to everybody, since they have been so comfortable in the past. However, these sandals are not what I have come to expect. For one thing, they are definitely narrower than the previous pair I had, and yet they seem to be the same nominal size (they were the same length, and they do otherwise fit me). The width is not comfortable; they just feel like I'm wearing very narrow sandals. I use them regularly for everyday walking around, but nothing I would characterize as unusual activity. Yesterday, I noticed that the sole near the heel is completely worn through to the inner material. Obviously these sandals are worn out in less than one year of normal use. The previous set lasted more than four years. I am not very happy with Ecco at this point.

Nice appearance but poor cushioning - This sandal is excellent in appearance and comfortable from the standpoint of the strap positions in relation to the foot. That said, the cushioning is very firm to the point it is almost nonexistent.

They felt great wearing around the house but once outdoors at the beach they caused blistering around the toe area and inside ankle. The neoprene was uncomfortable and stretched when wet. The velcro came undone frequently when wet. I would not recommend these for anything other than light casual wear in dry conditions.

Ordered the Ecco Yucatan Sandal and received a Ecco Yucatan Sandal box with "Rockport Sandals" inside. Sent them back and am waiting for my refund. In the meantime, I reordered the Ecco sandals again and received the correct pair of sandals. Thank you.

I've been wearing ECCO Yucatans for years and have found it to be the best shoe for me in terms of comfort. When I got this latest pair, I found that the sole felt rather harder than previous pairs but wore them anyway because the fit was as good as it's always been. Big mistake -- by the end of the day, I was hobbling around with pain in my right foot and knee. Having worn them, it's now too late to return them, and I'm stuck with a very expensive pair of sandals that I can't wear. This was a huge disappointment and an expensive lesson in the perils of shopping for shoes online. I'm hoping that this is just a one-off and that I'll find another pair of Yucatans that feel as good as they always have. Or maybe ECCO is going in a different direction with this model and I need to find something else to live in.

Unable to use as fit was much smaller than expected as Zappos had informed would be on the product item page. Followed all instructions and chose size according to recommendation and still came up short. Very FIRST time, purchase, and EXPERIENCE HERE ON ZAPPOS and so far it HAS NOT BEEN GOOD AT ALL, because now they don't have the larger size up that I need and now I'm stuck with a VERY expensive pair of Ecco Sport Yucatan Sandal that I can't use or wear or even return if I want to or else I won't be able to get the next size up whenever it might come in as they don't know and they told me starting in two months maybe they'll get more. Also, the quality of the build seems old like it's been sitting around for a few years and I just happened to be the lucky sucker who got the last item of this product in stock which of course is the one that's in the worst quality state possible that's still sellable so that they can get away with it. I'm starting to understand why I didn't bother to ever use Zappos in the first place as all of this is exactly what I was afraid of and was expecting was going to happen. Sucks, I was hoping they were going to be good...

These shoes run small.

Intended use was for hiking, running, and water crossings. Thought I would try something other than my time-proven Teva’s. Didn’t work. Looked great, however, after doing a two mile walk, several toes got blistered. Ouch. Perhaps the toe box is too narrow for wide feet. I returned them.

Ecco sandals are the only shoes I have worn for about 11 years. Every single day. This pair gave me blisters on one foot, and I got a nerve tumor on the other foot while wearing them (it may be unrelated to the shoe, but, then again, it may be). It seems like the shoe has been redesigned at an angle that puts more weight on your toes, and the straps on the toe are a bit wider. It's very distressing, as Ecco is the only brand that fits my unusual feet.

Expensive chineese made sandals. Came apart at the seams after one season of use. Would not buy again. Better to pay half the money and get one season out of them.
