Ecco ecco buchannan galleries

Dear Sir or Madam,

I walked into the above store at 12.10pm today and was absolutely shocked !Three members of staff, two female and one male, completely ignored me despite me picking up a pair of shoes and twice trying to make eye contact. The male staff member was more interested in playing with a charity tin and all three were engrossed in conversation. I shop in many branches of ECCO and have always found the level of service to be of a high standard until today. You lost a sale of £110.I look forward to hearing from you in due course.

Ecco ecco dress shoes

Recently, while walking in Manhattan on a clear day, one of the soles of my ECCO dress shoe's started to literally disintegrate! These are shoes I rarely wear (approx 5 to 10 times a year)and have had for approx seven years.
Needless to say this was extremely embarrassing and mind blowing. These shoes were over two hundred dollars and kept clean in their original box. There is no reasonable explanation for this. Is there any recourse for this?

Ecco ecco men shoe in brown suede

I was shocked to find that the rubber soles of my new shoes have totally disintegrated. Please look at the attached pictures. I have always been an "ecco" fan and have bought different shoes in the past. This is the first time i have this bad experience and hope you can replace these shoes. At the very least, the product should be "fit for purpise"

Ecco ecco brown shoes

Had a horrible experience with an expensive pair of Ecco shoes this weekend. My wife and I went out for dinner to a friend's home and once there, I realized the soles had literally disintegrated, leaving gazillions of ugly and dirty fragments in their living room. When I came home, I realized there were big chunks of damaged sole in my car as well as all over our home. For a company that considers itself as a provider of high quality shoes, I find this experience unconscionable and would like a full refund.

Ecco ecco track boots

The soles disintegrated. I went to put on my boots and when I stood up the bottoms (soles) just fell apart.
I paid over $200 for these boots and I think they should have lasted longer.
I stored them in my closet, during the summer months.
I wear them for fall hunting and fishing.in the spring for hiking.
they have a number 49 on the bottom. I guess that is the size.
They are brown leather with a "Gore-Tex" tag.
I bought them at Hills Shoes in Cana, Virginia USA 24317
This happened today, August 25, 2017.
I would like a new pair.

Ecco shoes

I bought a pair of Ecco shoes some 7 years ago, did wear them only 4 times. On June 2017 I put them on again an went to work. I was not able to walk anymore because after some 100 meters of walking the sole was disolving! This is clearly a material fault, therefore I put a complaint at Ecco but the answer was that without original receipt and exact purchase date nothing can be done. I am very disappointed, this is the last pair of Ecco I have ever bought, although the confort of the shoes is excellent.

Ecco contacted customer service 3 times by email and numerous times by phone and not had any response back.

My father recently wanted to buy me as a gift a pair of leather sneakers from your UK store. So we visited one in the nearest town (30 miles away) to see if they had them. Unfortunately they did not stock what I wanted in my size and the staff didn't know if they would get anymore in. So my father bought me a gift card instead so I could get them online. On trying to buy them online I then realised you don't allow gift cards as a payment option.

Since then I have contacted Customer Service to ask if they could help me with this query as I have a £100 gift card but I can't use it online and I doubt I will be going to the store in the near future. After sending 3 emails and tried calling 8 times and left voice messages I've had no response back.

Really disappointed with this service as your brand comes across as extremely helpful on your website - but it's not as you ignore customers. In the meantime, I'm left with a wasted £100 gift card.

Ecco expensive ecco shoes made from harmful toxic materials!

At 05/27/2017 I purchased pair of Ecco Soft Retro Sneaker :
Model number: [protected].
These shoes are the worst shoes I have ever purchased. I only wear it one time for 7 hours, when I removed them, the upper surfaces of my foot was red, swollen, severe burned and itching. I could not sleep at night, woke up at 2 am and the tops of my feet were on fire!
It has happened when I was in vacation in London. My vacation was spoiled. I had problems walking, even when I used a different pair of shoes.
When I came back home I went to the doctor, where I was diagnosed with Contact Dermatitis caused by the contact of the foot with parts of the shoe due to the toxic chemicals in the material that the shoes were made from, or dyes and glues used in the manufacturing process. Over 60+ years I wore many different brands of shoes cheap or expensive, never had problems like this.
Fairly embarrassing, that very expensive Ecco shoes made from harmful toxic materials! Ecco have to recall this model, it may harm peoples. This company cannot be trusted, and I'll never buy Ecco shoes again.
I was lucky, the store where the shoes were purchased, gave me the full refund.

Ecco I am complaining about my ecco sandals I purchased

The Velcro does not work any longer yet the rest of the shoe including the soul is still like new. I have been back to the store for a solution, but there doesn't seem to be one. I don't want to put out another $130.00 for just a simple Velcro problem. Also how do I know the same thing won't happen again. I love the shoe but am very disappointed. They are the ECCO men's Yucatán sandal. If you need more info please let me know exactly what that is.

Ecco soles of new shoes are gummy, sticky, and disintegrate!

Shoes were purchased as new several months ago thru a reseller on Ebay. Earlier today I started to wear them and they are a mess as you can see from the photos.
I have purchased many ECCO shoes in the past and have never encountered this problem.
Although certainly manufactured by ECCO, ECCO refuses to warranty any shoes, even brand new shoes, purchased on Ebay.
This is an obvious manufacturing defect. Since the Company refuses to acknowledge and make correction for a manufacturing defect, I will never purchase ECCO's again.

Ecco favorite ecco shoes destroyed after sent in for inspection

Caution: be careful about taking advantage of eccousa's policy of checking your shoes for defects/problems. They will provide you with a free mailer to send your shoes to them for inspection. I did this with my favorite pair of shoes with a note that I wanted them sent back to me since they were in very good condition except for a small sole issue. Instead, they sent me a gift card and destroyed my favorite shoes. They refused to return my shoes. I even wrote to their global headquarters, but received no answer. I wanted them to return my shoes as I had indicated in the note that accompanied my shoes to them or to have them make me a new pair. No response from global headquarters. This was a terrible experience for me with ecco.

Ecco ecco shoes got hydrolyzed.

My ecco shoe got hydrolyzed.

I purchased the shoe in last June from ECCO showroom in Al Ashmak Mall, Qatar. I was using regularly. Last week I felt the difference and I found the right heel bottom part was broken and rubber powder coming out. I took it to show room and came to know that the problem arises, if it was not weared for sometime. And to complaint to the site as they have no way to fix the same. Hence the complaint.

My contact details :

[protected]@dohabank.com.qa

I do not have copy of the invoice as it was lost.

Myself and family are very favour of ecco shoes and sandals. This issue has dented our interest on ecco products.

Please respond as early as possible.

I will be uploading the shoe image as well.

Regards,
Abdul Kareem. M

Ecco horrible customer service

I have been wearing ECCO shoes (as well as sneakers, boots, and sandals) almost exclusively for around twenty years and have generally loved them for their comfort. In spite of this, I have just ordered my last pair. I ordered a pair of shoes online because my local store didn't have my size (a common occurrence with ECCO) around three weeks ago. After waiting ten days for them, they sent the wrong size. I called and requested they send them express mail since this was their mistake and I didn't want to wait another ten days for shoes I paid $150 for. No deal. The woman said she would send me a return label to drop them off at UPS and that she would send the send the replacement pair as soon as she received notification from UPS that I had dropped them off. Now, another seven days later, I have heard nothing - no shipping notification - no refund - nothing. I called to find out what was going on. The customer service person (who turned out to be the same one who had promised to send the shoes as soon as the notification came) was extremely condescending and said she had sent them on Wednesday - not at all when she said she would - which should have been the Saturday before that. I asked her why she didn't send them as promised and why had I not received any shipping notification and she told me to "calm down." She had sent them on Wednesday and they were scheduled to be delivered next Thursday. She was altogether rude and condescending and not the least bit apologetic for lying to me or for my having to wait such a ridiculously long time for a pair of $150 shoes. There is no excuse for such a lag time in this day and age and even less of an excuse for ECCO subjecting me to such rude and condescending treatment. Again, my very last pair of ECCOs.

Ecco leather boots

I have had my boots for a couple of years having paid around €160. They hadn't been worn during the summer, and when I took them out to wear they looked OK. By the time I walked to my car, drove a few kilometers and got out, I found that both soles from the heel forward had detached and crumbled into powder. This was deposited on the carpet of my car, and has ground in and stained that, as well as leaving a trail of rubber pieces in the restaurant I entered.
Only on looking at your site, I found that there are thousands of complaints stretching back many years, and it appears nothing has been done except a few exchanges when complaints were pressed. Footwear at this price should not biodegrade, and should have been withdrawn at the first signs of the problem.
Please advise what action I should take for restitution

Ecco shoes

Over a month ago I order a pair of Ecco shoes. Money was paid through safeslbillpay. Weeks later I received a pair of shoes - not Ecco and nothing like what I ordered. Very cheap shoes with gold lettering stamped on the side of the shoe. I wrote many, many times without success. After submitting order number and pictures many times ( they claimed they didn't receive the original pictures) they finally claimed the company who mailed the shoes for them sent the wrong shoes. I paid $20 extra for the original shipping. Now the company wants me to keep the shoes and pay more money to get the ones I ordered. I have contacted the company many times with no success. What a scam.

Ecco substandard - my last pair with ecco

Bought a new pair and used less than 10 months showing signs of defect on the base and heel. Written to ECCO and took 1 month to have their response and finally reverted is not their defect, though admitted is part of the "bubble trap during manufacturing process". I don't mind to return the shoe for their study but no replacement given. OMG...

Email written as below:

shoes to our shop at Gurney Paragon so that we could have a deeper look on the defect signs of sole disintegration as you mentioned.
Thank you.

You are so smart. Only after wearing the shoes for 10 months you complained and demand a new pair. My shoes which I worn for 2 years are defective as well. Can I demand replacement as well?

Ecco exchange policy

Ecco will not provide an exchange or refund for shoes that do not fit correctly.

I bought a pair, which were fitted too small. Fortunately in the store I thought they might be a little too tight, so I exchanged them for a larger pair before I left the store.

After wearing them for a couple of hours, they became intolerably painful. So I went back to return them.

They said foot pain was not an excuse to exchange or return shoes. So I am out about $160.00.

I must say also that these were very cheaply made, probably in China or a similar low wage country. They could not possibly have cost more than $10 to the company.

Anyway, there are so many reputable sellers of footwear that you can find something good without going to Ecco.

Don't get caught in this trap like I was. Any reputable company will at least exchange your purchase. Most will refund your money if there's something wrong with the shoes. But once Ecco gets youyr money, you're out of luck if there's a problem.
