text: Really enjoy this pair of shoes. I wear them for work every day. The landscape where I work has severe inclines. These shoes handle rough terrain like they are mountain boots and of course they feel pretty comfy.<br />I have noticed Ecco has been modifying this design over the years and I agree with many here that there are small downgrades. However, overall it's still an awesome pair of business casual shoes. I have had this pair for almost 4 months, still feels brand new.
