ECCO has added to its constantly growing sneaker selection with the inclusion of the Corksphere 1 Highs, which are offered in men’s sizes.
The sneakers come in two colorways: a sleek deep onyx, or a dark gray that’s inspired by the hue of magnets. Both variations have matching soles that work to maintain the minimalist look, which also have bits of cork exposed on the sides of the heels. These unique accents expose what the comfortable soles are created from, with the Corksphere technology embracing the natural shape of the feet while providing the perfect amount of support. The cork accents are extended to the tongues of the shoes as well, while small branded tabs are featured to make the design more cohesive.
