The brand, founded in 1963 by Karl and Birte Toosbuy, celebrates the 20th anniversary of ECCO RECEPTOR® technology in 2026 with the launch of the new RECEPTOR XP (Xtreme Performance): a trainer that incorporates elements from the outdoor world, reimagining 1990s styles for a modern and dynamic audience.
Pitti Uomo also served as the stage for an exclusive preview of the limited-edition ECCO.Kollektive collection. A project that represents the meeting point between craftsmanship, innovation and contemporary design, combining ECCO’s expertise in leather goods with the creative vision of international designers.
