FAQs
Are these trainers suitable for running or sports?
No, the ECCO Soft 2.0 Trainers are designed for everyday casual wear and comfort, not for high-impact activities like running or intense sports. Their construction prioritizes comfort and style for daily use.
Can I wash the trainers in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the leather and structural integrity of the trainers. Please follow the specific care instructions for cleaning leather and the removable inlay sole.
What is ECFS Technology?
ECFS stands for ECCO Comfort Fibre System. It's a technology integrated into the inlay sole that helps to create a cool, dry, and hygienic environment inside the shoe by promoting air circulation.
Can I replace the inlay sole with my own orthotics?
Yes, the microfibre-covered inlay sole is removable, allowing you to insert your custom orthotics or preferred insoles for personalized comfort and support.
Are these trainers waterproof?
The ECCO Soft 2.0 Trainers are made of rich leather, which offers some natural water resistance, but they are not fully waterproof. We recommend treating them with a suitable leather protector spray for enhanced water repellency in damp conditions.
How often should I condition the leather?
The frequency depends on how often you wear them and the conditions. As a general guideline, condition the leather every 1 to 3 months to keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking. If the leather starts to look dry, it's a good time to condition it.
Troubleshooting
Foot feels uncomfortable or too tight
Ensure you have the correct size. Try adjusting the laces looser. Consider removing the inlay sole temporarily to see if it improves fit, or try thinner socks. Allow for a short break-in period if they are new, as leather can adapt.
Leather looks dull or scuffed
Clean the leather gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a small amount of quality leather conditioner or polish designed for black leather. Buff gently with a clean cloth to restore shine and minimize scuffs.
Unpleasant odor from inside the trainers
Remove the microfibre-covered inlay soles and air them out. If needed, gently hand wash the inlay soles with mild soap and water, ensuring they are completely dry before putting them back. Use foot powder or odor-absorbing inserts to help maintain freshness. Ensure trainers are fully aired out between wears.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The rubber outsole provides good traction, but on very slick or wet surfaces, all footwear can be slippery. Exercise caution on such surfaces. Ensure the outsoles are clean and free of debris that might reduce grip.

Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your ECCO Soft 2.0 Trainers:
- Cleaning Leather Uppers:
- Gently wipe off dirt and dust with a soft, damp cloth.
- For tougher spots, use a specialized leather cleaner appropriate for smooth leather. Apply sparingly and wipe clean.
- Condition the leather periodically (every 1-3 months, depending on wear) with a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
- Allow trainers to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
- Cleaning Textile Lining:
- The textile lining can be gently wiped with a damp cloth and mild soap solution if necessary.
- Ensure the lining is fully dry before wearing.
- Removable Inlay Sole:
- The microfibre-covered inlay sole can be removed and aired out regularly to prevent odor and moisture buildup.
- Hand wash gently with mild soap and water if needed, ensuring it is completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage:
- Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Use shoe trees to help maintain their shape when not in use.
- Avoid:
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on any part of the shoe.
