I live in NYC and this shoe is excellent for my walking commute. It's extremely comfortable and I can wear them all day without my feet feeling tired. I'm very happy with this shoe and will definitely have a pair of these around.

Ecco shoes, and especially this one, are extremely comfortable and lightweight. I tried these shoes a year ago and I have decided to throw out all my other shoes and only buy Ecco's going forward.

I'm a guy, shopping is a four letter word, even though it's seven. I recently ordered three pairs of shoes from Zappos as a first time buyer. Because some manufacturers size slightly different, I had to send one pair back twice. Sent it back with preprinted label paid for by Zappos, ordered the replacement, and magically, the next day the replacement arrives. How do they do that? Now I have the perfect fit and did not have to go "shopping." I'm going to order stuff I don't even need, just because it's not shopping. Wahoo!

Absolutely the best shoe for my job! I am a car salesman and I have been trying to find a good shoe for a while now. I will look no more...I will never buy another brand other than Ecco! Extremely satisfied! THANK YOU ZAPPOS!

I am now a firm believer in Ecco shoes. After a short break-in period, these shoes are very comfortable. Many of the reviews state that Ecco shoes run about a size larger than other brands, so I purchased size 44 (10-10.5), normally wear a 10.5-11. The Eccos felt a little snug when I first put them on, but they feel great now. Will definitely purchase Ecco in the future.

I've worn several pairs of Ecco mens dress / casual shoes. In my experience, I would recommend going Size smaller than your standard US size. I wear an 11.5 and purchased a 45 based on size chart. They fit amazingly for the first 2 months, however after the leather stretched naturally they were very loose. My last 3 pairs have all been 44. It felt tight but again after the “2 month” mark they fit fantastic. Great shoe, Great Price, and another satisfied Ecco Customer.

These are my husband's favorite shoes. This purchase was his third pair. He prefers Ecco shoes in general for comfort, but has found this style to be the best for his profession. He is a manager that is on his feet, on concrete, for the majority of the day. If he wears another shoes (especially another brand), his feet, legs and back hurt. Worth every penny!

This shoe brand was suggested by a coworker after I was complaining about sore feet after a conference we attended. I bought them through Zappos because I've always wanted an excuse to try buying shoes online. The shoes run slightly larger than the listed size. I wear a size 12 and bought the largest size that Zappos offered (which was like an 11.5) and they fit wonderfully. The shoes are some of the most comfortable non-athletic shoes I've ever owned. Worth every penny.

I ordered these for my husband for Christmas. I was actually replacing the same pair that he has had for 3-4 years because he loves them so much. We walk a lot and they are really comfortable and durable. They look great with a pair of jeans or they can be dressed up too.

I love these shoes. Perfect fit, classy, look great with jeans or slacks. My feet do sweat a bit even in winter, but these shoes seem to breathe a little better than my previous cheap par of slip-ons from Kohls. And of course super fast shipping and great service from Zappos. I just hope the soles hold up.

I'm ready to order my next pair of Helsinki's and I went back to check when my first pair was ordered from Zappos. I ordered the Rust color back on 4/4/2011 and have worn them 5 days a week for over a year and a half now. They are finally showing some signs of wear -- some on the heel as I strike on the outer heel box, and some on the outer side of the shoe where the leather meets the sole it's starting to separate. This is not unexpected as I used to wear shoes out in 6-8 months time. I wear them with in a business casual/casual environment with slacks and jeans and they look great. I sometimes have to stand for hours on a concrete floor while working on equipment and my feet feel great afterwards. I used to spend maybe $80 on a pair of work shoes. Before I 'splurged' Helsinki's, my feet would be dying after a day of validating equipment. I remember how I used to take weight off of one foot to give it some rest with all that standing. The Helsinki's are just what I needed to help my feet out. After a day of equipment validations, my feet are in great shape. Thank you Ecco! Also, thanks for adding the Cocoa Brown color! The rust color had just a slight hint of burgundy that I was okay with, but now the cocoa brown will be my color of choice. Ecco's are well worth the price and I will never have to shop around for a good pair of shoes again.

These are wonderful dress/business casual shoes. They are soft and comfortable with plenty of room in the toebox.

I'm a teacher, and I buy a pair of these Eccos every year. Not only are they stylish and extremely comfortable, but they hold up really well over the course of the year. I highly recommend them.

This was the second time I bought these shoes for my husband because he loved the first pair so much. The first pair lasted about a year and a half of everyday wear with lots of walking during the work day and some work days lasting 14 hours. They're the most comfortable dress shoe we've found.

I bought my first pair of Ecco shoes 10 years ago and they're still going strong. I'm now on my fourth pair. Very durable, very comfortable - you won't be disappointed.

These shoes are fantastic. The fit is true to size, although there was a little slipping at the heel for the first few wears, but then the shoe started to conform to the foot. Lightweight, with comfy insoles and good support. Spent a day standing on hard concrete floor and walking up and down stairs and had no pain in feet, legs or back - better than sneakers.

I ordered these for my husband to replace a pair of Ecco slip-on loafers that he had worn out. Was looking for a light-weight supportive shoe and this one is it! They run slightly large so order the Euro size that is slightly smaller than the US equivalent. Great looking shoe with a slightly elongated toe.

Very comfortable, stylish shoe. Only had it for a couple of weeks and it's survived torrential downpours and muddy fields (both unintentionally) and came out the other end looking no worse for the wear.

Tight at first, but I wore thicker socks with the shoes. The thicker socks and longer walk from airport to hotel broke them in and they are getting more comfortable. For pilots, the traction on the bottom sometimes gets hung up on rudder pedals with grooved rudder pedals. Water resistant but don't treat these as if you could walk in the rain for extended period of time without getting your feet wet.. ie.. a walk around the airplane okay. Walking a mile, probably get your feet wet.

My partner says (I purchased these for him), if you have a high arch the top can feel like it is rubbing on the top of your foot. Otherwise a beautiful shoe. (I hope it breaks in for him.)

I bought these for my boyfriend who wears a size 14. They mostly fit well, however cut in a little too soon and put pressure on his little toe. We're hoping they will stretch out and become comfortable enough to wear for a full day.

Good comfortable shoe that did not require a significant break in; however, the European size isn’t a direct comparison and seemed to run a bit small.

This is my second pair of this identical shoe. The first has been a long time favorite. Obviously I like the style and comfort. My only draw back has been trying to replicate the correct size. I have other ECCO shoes and another slip-on is a 44 which is my Euro eqivalent to size 10.5. My new pair felt small and the replacement (45) seems a little tight in the toe box...but, I'm keeping the shoes and I am confident they will stretch. I have a wide foot. The replacement process was an incredible experience in great customer service; Kudos to Zappos!
