The leather detailing gives this classic black or moon rock hue a contemporary twist.
The perfect pair for playful summer evenings, the Ecco Touch 15 ($259) is a pretty ballerina flat from the Eye Candy trend – reflecting optimistic and positive vibes shown by surprising hues and unexpected detailing.

With six colours to choose from you may well fall in love and need to take home two.
ECCO’s new-season sandal sees influence from futuristic trends. The Ecco Touch 25S’s ($279) modern metallic detailing and inventive perforation ensures this sandal stays a step ahead of the season’s core trend. However this modern style stays balanced with classic shade options (Gravel, or Black), and the ECA-moulded footbed and lightweight shank completes the comfort factor.
Talk about easy breezy, the Ecco Easy L ($229) boasts both comfort and convenience, as the slip-on style is ideal for the garden, the beach or barbeque! The smooth, soft camel nuback leather upper add grace to a sporty exterior – which comes in fun favourite colours such as Melon, or more subdued Gravel or Black – and the convertible heel back makes the this handy footwear option highly versatile and functional.
The humble espadrille stays hot this season, and ECCOs Osan ($299) undoubtedly brings classic into a new universe. This super-soft, flexible shoe takes the global trend into an exclusive, office-appropriate leather version, while still paying homage to the original design. Available in White, Red and Emerald.

And for a more understated sneaker that still holds interest and appeal, the ECCO Osan ($319) features a clean silhouette and modern precision boosted by laser-cut perforations and the option of Red Alert or Black hues. Its airy comfort and slim-line feminine style embody summer’s poetic, dreamy side.
