ECCO Golf Shoes are a product of ECCO, a Danish footwear company founded in 1963 by Karl Toosbuy. Known for its innovative approach to shoemaking, ECCO emphasizes full control over the production process, from leather tanning to shoe manufacturing, ensuring high standards of quality, comfort, and durability. This vertically integrated model allows ECCO to produce premium footwear that is sold in over 100 countries worldwide.
The brand's journey into golf began in 1996 when Toosbuy and his son-in-law, inspired by their new interest in the sport, decided to create golf shoes that prioritized comfort and performance. Early collaborations with professional golfers like Thomas Bjørn helped establish ECCO Golf as a credible name in the sport. The company gained global recognition in 2010 when Fred Couples wore ECCO’s spikeless Golf Street shoes at The Masters, sparking a revolution in golf footwear. This event popularized hybrid golf shoes, which combine street-style aesthetics with on-course functionality.
ECCO Golf is renowned for its technological innovations. Its signature Hydromax-treated leather ensures water resistance and durability, while FLUIDFORM™ Direct Comfort Technology creates lightweight, flexible soles. The introduction of BIOM® technology further enhanced natural movement and comfort by mimicking the foot's anatomical shape. These advancements have made ECCO Golf Shoes a favorite among professionals and amateurs alike.
Today, ECCO Golf continues to innovate with designs that blend functionality and style. Its commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship solidifies its position as a leader in the global golf shoe market.
