Customer Reviews ECCO Turn GTX Boot

I am disappointed in the width sizing of this shoe. I have numerous other Eccos that run a bit on the wide side of medium and have a more fuller toe box. That is not so with these boots. Comparing the foot bed inside the shoe confirms, at the heel that it is significantly narrower than other Eccos that I have. And they were not as roomy in the toe box, hence they were very uncomfortable to wear.

Pros: Clean design. Waterproof. Comfortable out of box. Quality materials. Full grain leather. Cons: Runs slightly small and also shallow in the toe box. Thick shoelaces seem out of place and frumpy. Midsole under the forefoot is very flimsy which makes for lack of support.

Buy a the next size up! I'm a 11.5 U.S. and had to go with the 46 Euro size. I'm not crazy about the pebble texture to the leather, and while the heel has wonderful cushion, the ball of the foot seems to have none. Feels very odd. The foot liner is thin, with little arch support. A disappointment compared to my Ecco boots that I own. Not sure I'll buy Ecco again. I can't understand why show manufacturers put so much time and money into a shoe and then throw in a thin, cheap foot liner. The look of the shoe is so-so, not real stylish.

This boot was far too wide and did not fit. It seemed like it was a size to large. Most of my Ecco products are excellent but this boot was uncomfortable perhaps because of the size. I am returning it.

I have had these shoes for about a year. I never really liked how they felt. The soles on these shoes are very soft and provide little support. It is almost like wearing a pair of moccasins or a cheap sneakers. If you like this sort of thing, buy these shoes. If you prefer a stiff soled shoes for walking further than to your car in the driveway, I would suggest avoiding these shoes.

I loved these boots immediately. They looked great and felt amazing, and the Gore-Tex was perfect for the rainy Portland season. Unfortunately, I've only had these boots a year and I've worn them out. I'm a college professor, so I'm on my feet a couple hours a day -- certainly not extreme conditions. I hardly wore them over the summer, but the soles are cracking, and every time it rains now, water comes in the shoe and soaks my heel. Not a nice feeling. For nine months of moderate wear, the price seems a bit steep.

In a word: disappointed. I found these boots to be narrower, pointier, and lower quality than I expected. In my opinion, they almost look like women's shoes in person. The leather is stiff and cheap looking compared to other Ecco boots than I have owned. I sincerely hope this isn't a sign of things to come for Ecco. Made overseas! It's a good thing that Zappos has a solid return policy.

These are the loudest shoes I’ve ever owned! If you intend to walk on any epoxy floors, polished tile or even unpolished tile, do NOT buy these. The soles squeak so loud with each step it’s almost unreal. I’m stunned that in all the reviews no one has pointed this out. This was my first Zappos purchase and it’s a shame I can’t send them back as I paid a lot for them. But I’ve worn them for a day so can’t return. I’m not really confident that reviews here are the real thing.
