Ecco Dress Shoes

Community noted

Comfort dress shoes built with an injection-molded sole construction rather than glued-on soles, paired with full-grain leather uppers.

Why it's buy-it-for-life

Recommended for BIFL comfort dress shoes because the glueless injected sole cannot separate from the upper the way cemented soles can, and the leather quality is regarded as top-tier.

    Can highly recommend ecco for bifl comfortable dress shoes. No glue as sole is injected, so will never come off.
