Ecco warranty for shoes
The short version
Ecco covers shoes in full for 1 year, then keeps gore-tex waterproofing covered to 3 years. That full coverage is longer than most of the 12 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Ecco's published warranty, checked October 2026.
