Nicely Designed, Quality Shoe!
This is my first pair of ECCO shoes and I'm very pleased with the quality of the materials used and quality of their construction. I own many shoes and have been familiar with the ECCO brand however I've always considered them very pricey but with a good reputation. Luckily I came across this pair as part of the Deal Of The Day and bought them at a significant discount. I like everything about them however the only issue is their sizing. I own too many pairs of shoes and with very few exceptions I've ordered all of them in my U.S. std. size 10 M without issue, however not having owned ECCO before and not being familiar with their odd sizing structure (10-10.5, 11-11.5, etc. instead of size 10, size 10.5, size 11, etc.) I ordered size 10-10.5M. Well, they were too big all around but oddly I could have almost lived with them because they were comfortable and because of the way they're designed. They extended about 1-1/2" beyond the end of my big toe on my longest foot and my heel easily would slide up and down with each step and they were slightly wide at the ball of the foot. But, even though my heel would go up and down it didn't hurt and even though they were a bit too wide in the ball they were comfortable and even though I didn't lift my foot high enough on a few steps for the extra length on the front to clear the carpet I guess I would've been able to get used to it. Maybe this is all a sign they are a well made and well cut shoe, I mean I read a number of reviews where the person said they felt the shoes were too big and thought about returning them, only to finally decide to keep them. I almost decided to keep these but just knew if I returned them for a 9-9.5 I'd be happier ... and I was right. The 9-9.5 feels just as comfortable but without any "sloppy" feeling and without being too snug, they are just right. And due to their quality materials and construction, I expect they will provide good durability. So I'm now an ECCO fan who will know what size to buy next time. I think that since I, and many others, would consider keeping shoes that are too large because of the way they're cut really is a testament to how well these shoes are designed, and for that reason find them easy to recommend. I'm not going to say anyone new to ECCO should order them a size smaller than their usual, however I hope my experience will be helpful to others in determining what size to try first.

My favorite shoes, perfect!
Had these exact shoes for over 10 years. Bought them at an Ecco store originally. Received the exact same pair fast and they fit perfect 👌 Extremely happy with these shoes and even wrote to Ecco thanking them for such a well made shoe, they responded within a day!They fit true to size and I wear them for 12 hours a day - everyday. Will buy again

My Favorite Pair of ECCO Shoes!
If you're on the fence about ordering your first pair of ECCO shoes stop reading and just order the shoes. I switched to ECCO shoes a few years ago after blowing through a bunch of different brands - Kenneth Cole, Rockport, Steve Madden to name a few - and feeling disappointed in the products from those companies.The New Jersey Loafer is my favorite pair of ECCO dress shoes to date. They look fantastic (I have the Mink color) and are perfect for the office. Being ECCO's they're extremely comfortable and almost unbelievably lightweight. I can wear these shoes all day long at the office with no issues. I tend to get sweaty feet with shoes featuring man-made synthetic materials so if you have that issue these are an excellent pair of shoes. After a full day of work my feet are bone dry.The sole is lightweight and quiet. I hate making noise when I walk down a tile hallway and these shoes are stealthy quiet even if the soles are wet.I've used these shoes for a little under 2-months and so far they're holding up extremely well. I'm still regularly wearing my first pair of ECCO dress shoes so I have no reason to doubt these will hold up just as good.Recommended!EDIT: One item worth mentioning. I found these shoes ran a size too large. In just about every other dress shoe I own I'm a 10.5. With this shoe my feet would slide out of the back at that size. I went down to a 43 EU/ 9-9.5 US and the fitment is perfect.

Nice shoe, comfortable and stylish
I love Ecco shoes because they are stylish, comfortable, and lasts a few years. My older Ecco shoes lasted 3 years before the rubber started cracking and wearing out. It's worth the extra money to pay for this shoe in my opinion.I bought this shoe thinking it was the same one I had bought previously, but found out it was different. With that said, it's still a nice shoe, came with a travel bag and shoe horn. It didn't come with a travel bag and shoe horn when I bought my Ecco shoes 3 years ago. It's a bit narrow at the top compared to the Helsinki's (I believe I had previously) and also a bit bigger (I wear a size 42). It's comfortable, but the biggest gripe I have with the shoe is that since it's a little bigger, my socks and the insole kept rubbing together making loud squeaky noises. The insole seems to be a rubber type of material. To remedy this I just put another insole on top of the original one.Overall nice, comfortable shoe, but weird that the insole material with my socks would make squeaky noises.
