Detailed Review
The ECCO Women's Corksphere Thong Flip-Flop stands out in both comfort and design. With its full-bodied ECCO GREYWOLF leather or ECCO FLUFFY PEBBLE NAPPA leather, you experience a soft touch that feels premium against the skin. The incorporation of the CORKSPHERE footbed is where this flip-flop shines, providing a responsive support system that cradles your foot with every step.
Designed for all-day wear, the lightweight synthetic rubber outsole absorbs impact efficiently, making it suitable for prolonged use without discomfort. One of the key highlights of this sandal is its leather-lined extra foam layer, which adds to the immediate softness felt upon wearing.
However, as with any product, there are considerations. While the flip-flop boasts remarkable comfort and quality, some users may find the initial fit of the thong between the toes slightly bothersome until broken in. Additionally, being on the pricier side compared to typical flip-flop offerings might deter budget-conscious shoppers. Nevertheless, if you value comfort and style, this sandal is likely a worthy investment for your wardrobe.

User Reviews
Very comfy and great quality. Pretty soft sole, good for joints. Nice design, perfect strap proportion, looks nice even on wider feet.
These sandals were comfortable and narrow enough for me. It pained me to return them because my long toes don’t always look great in thongs. They would probably look great on most feet and beautifully made.I’m going to try a different style of Ecco’s!
They are very fashionable yet comfortable. However, walking for too long hurt on the top of my feet with blisters.
The shoes look very cute. Not a great fit but good enough I thought to keep. Big mistake. I was wearing them around the house for a while to see how they feel. Then yesterday I was running some errands and those shoes hurt my feet so bad I had to buy new ones because it was impossible for me to go on in those shoes. I don’t have the box anymore so I guess I can’t return them. Huge disappointment
First of all giving it a 5 star because the sandal is of highest quality base and leather. Don’t think it’s fair to take off points because it would not fit right to my footSizing.. I ordered a 9-9/2 which I always order for ECCO Yucatán. But the yachtsman sandal is 39 in size and this says a 40 and it was small. I have very narrow foot and the toe section my foot hung off the base. My heel section fit right but it was too big where my foot goes under the T strap part and I sloshed around in it but not by a lot. If you have a wide foot this will not fit you. It would fit a B width foot. As for the color it it is not as deep as shown. If you wear 8-1/2 B WIDTH shoe then ORDER 9-9-1/2. The footbed itself is so completely with microfiber top and cork below itIf you have a question just ask and I will answerOnce again leave stars for quality of the shoe amd not fit because everyone has different characteristics of their foot. Like it said it fits narrower then most brands.
I just love this sandal it’s beautiful, high quality like all Ecco shoes, super comfy footbed, but the darn thing is just too narrow. My toes hit the edge and with the lip it’s just not comfortable. I saw many reviews say the same thing but I hoped for the best. Sadly I will return them. Come on Ecco please make your sandals a bit wider, I do not have a wide foot.
I love these sandals. I suffer from constant heel pain and I have been wearing these since I got them. So far no pain. The cork and the sneaker like bottom seem to absorb a lot. I want to get these in other colors. I absolutely love them. Worth every penny. Very comfortable and easy to walk in.
The thong piece between the toes has a hard seam down it that cuts into your toes. Cute shoes, fit well otherwise, but had to return.
