Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for winter hiking?
Yes, the waterproof membrane and stable build make them appropriate for cold, wet trails, though they are not insulated for sub-zero alpine conditions.
Can I put my ECCO ULT-TRN trainers in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can damage the adhesive bonds and ruin the leather. Hand cleaning is strongly recommended.
How should the fit feel initially?
They should feel snug but not tight. Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe.
What does PFAS-free mean?
It means the water-repellent treatment used on the shoe is free from poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances, which are harmful to the environment.
Are these trainers good for wide feet?
The ECCO fit is generally anatomical, but as they are made of leather, they will adapt slightly to your foot shape over time.
Troubleshooting
Waterproofing seems less effective after extensive use
Check the leather surface for signs of drying out and apply a leather-specific waterproofing spray compatible with membrane footwear.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
Ensure the laces are tensioned properly; the ULT-TRN design benefits from a secure midfoot lockdown to prevent shifting during steep descents.
Build-up of dirt in the tread
Use a stiff-bristled plastic brush to dislodge compacted mud, as excessive buildup can reduce traction on slippery surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care for your ECCO ULT-TRN trainers will significantly extend their lifespan. As these shoes feature leather uppers, it is essential to clean off loose dirt after each hike using a soft brush. If the shoes become very muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid submerging them in water for extended periods. To maintain the waterproof membrane's integrity, do not use heavy-duty wax or oil-based conditioners that may clog the pores of the material. Always air-dry your shoes at room temperature, keeping them away from direct heat sources like radiators or fireplaces, which can cause the leather to crack and the sole adhesives to fail. If you use custom orthotics, the factory insoles are removable to accommodate your specific support needs.
