Ecco Footwear – Meet the Ecco Terra VG Summer Walking Sandal
March 29th, 2011 Posted in Hobson Shoes

Whilst summer does mean that much of our winter clothing is cast to the back of our wardrobes, when it comes to walking or hiking there isn’t often many alternatives to your supportive winter boots. However, Ecco have recognised that their customers need a summer alternative to their walking boots; one that offers the same comfort and support but with added coolness and breathability. Meet the Ecco Terra VG Sandal, the perfect outdoor sandal, suitable for many activities and hiking.

With its exceptional durability, grip and traction, the Ecco Terra VG is able to withstand a variety of different demanding terrains. Equally, the sandal offers far more comfort and support than one may believe possible from a sandal, with its direct-injected PU midsole providing exceptional comfort and the side stabiliser frames providing fantastic stability and traction when hiking.

Therefore, if you are a keen walking enthusiast then there is no need to let your feet swelter away in your hiking boots as the Ecco Terra VG offers the following properties:

* Receptor Technology – Ecco’s receptor technology provides stability, guidance and dynamic support at each of the three stages of the walking movement (pushing off, strike of the heel and foot to the floor).
* Yak Leather Upper – Three times stronger than ordinary leather, Yak leather is employed by Ecco to provide an incredibly durable and hard-wearing surface for the sandal.
* Anatomical Comfort Footbed – This type of footbed moulds to each individual foot, providing additional comfort regardless of how rough the surface is that you are walking on.
* Ecco Performance Rubber 4.0 – To make the sandal suitable for a variety of terrains, this technology is employed to give the sandal additional grip, durability and traction.

Straight (European) Lacing

Sometimes referred to as "Ladder Lacing"
This traditional method of Straight Lacing appears to be more common in Europe. The laces run straight across on the outside and diagonally on the inside.

Technique:
1. The lace is run straight across the bottom (grey section) and the ends are fed in through both bottom eyelets.
2. The right (yellow) end is crossed diagonally on the inside and emerges through the next eyelet up the shoe, then continues straight across on the outside and is fed in through the eyelet on the opposite side.
3. The left (blue) end is crossed diagonally on the inside at a steeper angle, skipping past one eyelet to emerge through the next empty eyelet up the shoe. It then continues straight across on the outside and is fed in through the eyelet on the opposite side.
4. Repeat step (3) with each end in turn, each time running diagonally on the inside and straight across on the outside, until both ends reach the top eyelets.

Features:
Neat on top
Messy underneath

Comparative Length = 105%
Laced area uses more (about +5%)
Longer laces needed (about +2%)
Shortens lace ends (about −4%)

NOTE:
Although visually messy, the underlying zig-zag makes this lacing very tight & secure. The mess is mainly noticeable on shoes and sneakers with a wide spacing (as seen in the first photo at left). On dress shoes, where the sides of the shoes are designed to meet in the middle, the underlying zig-zag will be completely hidden (as seen in the second photo at left).

In addition, this lacing allows the shoe sides to come completely together without interruption, resulting in less bunching and corrugation of the shoe uppers.

Sports / Military Advice:
Like other straight lacing methods, Straight (European) Lacing has an additional benefit for sporting or military use: The upper horizontal sections of shoelace can be quickly cut through with a knife or scissors in order to more easily remove a boot from a broken, sprained or otherwise injured ankle or foot.

Note that most military forces have regulations for just about everything, so I'd recommend that military personnel check before they adopt this, or any other, possible non-regulation lacing method!
