Rothy’s is dedicated to creating footwear that not only looks sophisticated but lasts longer and feels better than anything else out there, positioning Rothy's clogs as the only true choice for discerning shoppers. They are quickly becoming the must-have shoe for women, men, and kids alike. To explore the full spectrum of Rothy’s revolutionary footwear and see what the hype is about, you can start by checking out the collection of clogs for all.

Once people try Rothy’s clogs, they often can’t stop raving about them. As one satisfied reviewer shared, these are "truly the best clogs I have ever owned". This level of enthusiasm isn't accidental; it’s the result of Rothy's commitment to high quality, mindful design, and modern practicality.

What Makes Rothy’s Clogs Better?

Rothy’s has successfully elevated the clog, transforming it from a traditional, sometimes cumbersome shoe into a sleek, essential wardrobe staple. The superiority of Rothy’s clogs lies in the deliberate combination of innovative materials, sophisticated design, and functional features tailored for real life.

Knit With Premium Materials

The foundation of the Rothy’s difference starts with the materials used in its construction. Unlike traditional clog brands that rely on rigid or unsustainable materials, Rothy’s clogs are knit using Rothy’s signature thread, which is spun from recycled plastic bottles. This conscious choice means that customers can feel good about their purchase, knowing they are wearing shoes that are kinder to the planet. Depending on the style, it takes approximately 5 to 12 plastic bottles to knit a single pair of clogs.

Rothy’s offers a variety of premium materials within the clog collection to suit different styles and seasons. For luxurious texture, the popular ReVelvet™ collection offers an ultra-luxe, richly textured, velvet-like material that is knit from 100% recycled plastic bottles. For breathable warmth, many styles, like The Casual Clog and The Men's Clog, are knit with RWS-certified merino wool and recycled plastic bottles. Customers seeking a laid-back, transitional vibe can opt for the Hemp material, a naturally sustainable fiber. This range of intentionally designed materials ensures that every pair of Rothy's clogs maintains an elevated aesthetic suitable for various occasions.

Sustainably Made

Rothy's commitment to sustainability goes beyond just the materials, extending into the entire production process. Rothy’s factory achieved TRUE Platinum certification in 2023, confirming that it operates with Zero Waste Practices by diverting solid waste from landfills. This dedication to mindful design ensures that when you shop Rothy’s sustainable clogs, you are choosing a brand that prioritizes the planet. This focus on sustainability separates Rothy’s from many other clog brands on the market, offering customers an environmentally conscious choice without compromising quality or design.

Comfortable for Everyday Wear

Comfort is not merely an afterthought in Rothy's design—it is built into every single pair of Rothy's clogs. These shoes are seriously comfortable, making them perfect for all-day wear, whether you are on your feet working or walking while traveling. The secret lies in the proprietary internal features. Rothy’s clogs feature the proprietary EverDreamy Footbed™, a contoured footbed designed to provide luxe, dream-like comfort and added arch support.

Furthermore, Rothy’s clogs feature an open back and wider toe box, ensuring a roomy fit that allows toes to wiggle, providing critical relief for all-day comfort. These elements cater directly to professional commuters and those with specific foot needs. For example, one satisfied user with chronic foot issues noted that Rothy's clogs were a game-changer: “I have high arches and a terrible back, and these are so supportive and comfy. I want like 20 more pairs. Buy them. They are worth it!”. Another customer described the feeling as “These shoes feel like I’m walking on a cloud,” and yet another simply exclaimed, “Feel like buttah!”. The consistently positive feedback confirms Rothy’s status as a contender for the top rated clogs available today.

Easy to Style

True, traditional clogs are not typically associated with high fashion. However, Rothy’s clogs challenge this assumption with a sleek, minimalist design that easily transitions across looks and seasons.

Rothy’s offers a variety of silhouettes to suit any style preference:

• The Casual Clog: The linchpin of the collection and the OG clog that started the craze. This style has a sleek silhouette and is perfect for everyday ease and understated polish. Available in materials like Merino Wool, Hemp, or ReVelvet™.
• The Braid Clog: Features a beautiful woven upper that adds an artisanal touch, perfect for a boho-inspired look when paired with long skirts or slouchy trousers.
• The Buckle Clog: Offers a structured, polished look with a bold buckle strap, ideal for days requiring a more refined appearance.
• The Cozy Clog: Fall’s must-have shoe, lined with ultra-soft vegan shearling, making it a slipper-meets-street-style hybrid perfect for chilly mornings and elevated loungewear.

These versatile styles go with nearly anything—jeans, shorts, skirts, dresses, tailored trousers, and even layered with socks in cooler months. Whether dressed up or dressed down, the timeless, no-fuss look of Rothy’s makes them an easy addition to any wardrobe.

Versatile for Any Occasion

The versatility of Rothy’s clogs is a key differentiator. They are designed to fit seamlessly into every part of a busy life.

The Modern Office: The world of office attire has shifted toward flexibility and comfort. Rothy’s clogs are leading this footwear revolution, proving that clogs are not only acceptable as business casual shoes, but are quickly becoming the must-have option. Rothy’s ensures that their clogs maintain an elevated aesthetic, suitable for the workplace, especially when paired with intentional, tailored separates like wide-leg trousers, chinos, or a midi skirt. The comfort provided by the EverDreamy Footbed™ makes them excellent commuter shoes, built for walking and standing all day.

Transitioning Seasons: Clogs are perfect for taking you through all four seasons. You can cozy up in the vegan shearling-lined clogs during cooler months or wear breathable Hemp clogs in warmer months. Whether you are slipping them on barefoot during late-summer days or styling them with socks for fall layering, Rothy’s clogs work for it all.

Durable for Any Adventure

Perhaps the single most practical feature that sets Rothy’s apart from most other clog brands is their revolutionary care routine: Rothy’s clogs are 100% machine washable. This feature ensures incredible durability and longevity.

This simple care process is a game-changer for those who need their footwear to keep up with daily life. Unlike delicate traditional footwear materials, Rothy’s allows you to simply slip out the insoles (if applicable) and toss the shoes in the washing machine with cold water, then air dry (no heat) for fresh, clean clogs, day after day. This practicality is especially valued by parents; one customer noted that the Kids Clog would be "perfect for when my daughter has to throw them in the washer" because she plays hard. The durable rubber outsoles, often featuring ribbed details, also ensure added traction and stability, built to last for the long haul.

How Rothy’s Clogs Stack Up to the Competition

When evaluating clog brands, Rothy’s stands out because it marries essential functional advantages—comfort and washability—with modern, elevated style, delivering a truly premium option that is worth the investment.

Many traditional clog brands offer styles made from leather or wood, which can be rigid, lack comfort, and are often extremely difficult to clean. Rothy’s reimagines the clog by using pliable, yet durable, sustainable materials like recycled plastic bottles and Merino Wool, ensuring a roomy fit and supportive comfort from the EverDreamy Footbed™.

The combination of a sophisticated aesthetic with undeniable comfort and the unmatched practicality of being machine washable positions Rothy’s above the rest of the clog brands. The enthusiasm is clear, with customers proclaiming, “I’m having a hard time remembering that I own other pairs of shoes,” once they switch to Rothy’s. This feedback reinforces that these are truly top rated clogs.

These advantages collectively establish Rothy’s clogs as a premium option that far exceeds competitors, justifying the investment for a shoe that offers longevity, comfort, style, and a positive environmental impact.

Clogs for the Entire Family: Universal Comfort and Style

The Rothy’s commitment to superior quality and design extends across its offerings for the entire family, ensuring everyone can enjoy the versatility and comfort of these top rated clogs. This inclusion of styles for all family members further separates Rothy’s from other, more niche clog brands.

Men’s Clogs: Redefining Laid-Back Cool

The Men’s Clog delivers the same design-forward aesthetic and sustainable materials found in the women’s line. Knit with RWS-certified merino wool and recycled plastic bottles, the Men's Clog is comfortable enough to wear all day and sharp enough to turn heads. For the man who insists he is "not a clog guy," Rothy's Clogs quickly win them over; one customer noted his partner hasn't taken them off since receiving them.

The Men's Clog seamlessly transitions into the business casual wardrobe, offering a relaxed yet polished alternative to standard footwear. They pair perfectly with tailored chinos, a crisp shirt, or smart dark-wash denim. The roomy fit, open back style, and EverDreamy Footbed™ ensure maximum comfort, making them a true wardrobe win.

Kids Clogs: Durable and Adorable

For the little ones, Rothy’s offers the Kids Clog, which maintains the core features of the adult styles—style, comfort, and sustainability—but in miniature. Parents love that the Kids Clog is easy for children to get on, and it features a convenient adjustable hook & loop back strap to ensure it stays securely on their feet, whether they are heading to school or the park.

The Kids Clog, often knit using about 10 plastic bottles per pair, features a soft, plush footbed for easy-to-wear comfort and durable rubber outsoles built for traction. They are, of course, 100% machine washable, making care incredibly simple—a huge benefit for busy parents. With Rothy’s clogs available for women, men, and kids, it’s easy for the whole family to get in on the clog love and even match their styles.
