Since 1963, Ecco has been making leather shoes and bags. It was founded in Denmark by craftsman Karl Toosbuy, who decided to produce more comfortable and durable footwear for his fellow citizens. He was able to rent a small factory in the town of Bredebro and began working with his apprentices. The result was Ecco footwear — combining convenience, tradition, and famous Scandinavian design. These are products made from natural materials and in natural colors, which are just as relevant now as they were 56 years ago.
Where to buy Ecco shoes
Over more than 50 years of its existence, the company has opened many stores. Some of them can also be found in Russia. However, as with all well-known quality brands, prices for the products in the Russian Federation are very heavily inflated. On average, according to our estimates, by 20-30% compared to the official Ecco website in the USA. That is, instead of buying one pair of shoes in a Moscow boutique, you can get about two of the same pairs in America. And that’s not all: in the States there are also discount websites where shoes and clothes are sold much cheaper. As a result, the savings on each pair of boots come to 10 thousand rubles, or even more.
Specific examples will come a bit later, but for now here is a list of websites where you can buy Ecco shoes without any problems:
- Zappos.com. The main marketplace for selling all kinds of shoes in the USA. Large selection, the best customer support in the world (!) (to the point that you can return an item a year later if it simply didn’t fit). But there are almost no discounts.
- Amazon.com. The biggest and most famous online store in the world. You can find everything here. And, of course, you can find Ecco shoes here. In fact, there are even more of them here than on the official Ecco website, because it also sells models from older collections that the company itself decided not to continue. There are often decent discounts (5-20%).
- 6PM.com. The main sale store, Ecco shoes and accessories with discounts of 50-80%. Minimum prices, free shipping to Prostobox.com warehouses on orders over $50. True, the selection is not as large as in other stores. But it is still hundreds and hundreds of products,
- US.Ecco.com. The official Ecco online store. Large selection, including handbags, belts, and other accessories. On your first visit, we especially recommend going to the Sale section: there are always several dozen products here with discounts of 30-50%. That means an additional savings of several thousand rubles.
What you can get
American stores offer a much wider variety of models and interesting colors. But the main reason to buy directly there is, of course, the price. Genuine leather is not cheap, but in Russian stores it gets a special markup. Let’s just compare the prices of the same Ecco products in the USA and in the Russian Federation.
- Boots Ecco Soft 7 Tred Boot. One of the more modern models based on an old and proven concept. An ideal option for winter. In Russia, it costs 12 990 rubles on Ecco-Shoes. At 6PM — $132 (8580) rubles. By the way, even newer Ecco Soft 8 are not yet sold in Russia, while in America they are already available even on discount sites.
- Women’s sneakers Ecco Soft 7 Fashion. In Russia — 10 990 rubles, on Amazon — $95 (6200 rubles). 4790 rubles in savings. Smaller sizes in America can be bought even cheaper, from $69 (follow the link).
- Shoes Ecco Biom 2GO. In Russia they cost 12 990 rubles. On the Ecco website in the USA they are sold for $169 (10 985 rubles). Even including 800 rubles for delivery, it still comes out to a thousand rubles in savings.
- Handbag Ecco Ella. In Russia — 24 990 rubles. In the USA — $265 (17 250 rubles).
- Men’s shoes Ecco Seattle. On Amazon — from $120 (7800 rubles), in Russian stores — from 13 490 rubles.
And of course, delivery from the USA is cheapest and fastest with Prostobox.com. Packages to Russia cost from $7 and reach you in 4-8 days. You can also combine purchases from different stores into one package, so the final delivery cost comes out even cheaper. We have been shipping Ecco from the USA for almost ten years already, and with us your purchases are completely safe.
