Reviews

The Do It All Wedge

"I wear these with dresses, shorts, jeans, and linen pants/trousers for an easy, polished look (and much welcomed extra height!). They seamlessly blend into boho, quiet luxury, and even athleisure ensembles. I make all my friends who say they can no longer wear heels try them. The straps are comfortable and secure. Zero break-in time required."

— Korri P. (5/5)

Poor design

"The shoe is so uncomfortable in the arch of my foot. The arch is hard and cuts into the bottom of my foot. It’s very odd since I have a very high arch and typically Rothy’s are too flat for a healthy fit. Since the sole is molded, it doesn’t give at all so the shoe never get comfortable."

— Chynnon A. (1/5)

The comfiest and hella stylish

"As soon as I tried on the store, bought it and didnt remove it until home. I use it on my daily walks that includes uphills and grass. Wore it for walking around the wall for more than 5hours. Get it and don’t look back."

— Anne L. (5/5)

Comfort and style

"The Wedge is everything I ever wanted from Rothy's. A lover of their flats, I longed for just a bit of height but without losing any of the comfort. These are it! I absolutely love these shoes and wear them as often as possible!"

— Marlleen M. (5/5)

When I tell you I wore these all day. . .

"I wore these all day for work and school drop off and walking lunch - my feet are fine. They are so comfy and just the right amount dress up and dress down. 10/10 would recommend."

Love this Wedge

"I usually wear a size 6 but bought a 5. 5 . Fits perfect . A beautiful shoe ! So comfortable too."

— Diane S. (5/5)

Heels scuff so easily

"I have worn my new $180 sandals twice in very low impact venues. The heels scuff very easily and it does not seem like they will clean up. I am disappointed, I was willing to venture into sandals after moving my more traditional Rothy’s for years."

— Donna D. (2/5)

Amazing Fit & Style!

"So comfortable to wear. I love these for both their style and fit. They go with everything from jeans to dresses."

— Maryellyn H. (5/5)

Comfortable

"I have neuromas in my one foot and anything with heels is painful. I was hesitant to buy these at first but wore them for almost 12 hours the first time. No pain in my feet and do comfortable. Love them!!"

— Elizabeth S. (5/5)

Surprisingly cute and comfortable

"I’m always nervous when purchasing wedges online. I have a weird foot arch so that’s where the hesitation comes from. So far, I’ve only worn them for short outings. They’re comfortable, the foot feels snug and supported. Caution when walking on slippery floor. I got a little nervous with that, but made it out of the store alive and free of embarrassment. 🤪 I’m 5’8 so the heel is just right. I have zero cartilage in my right knee but the height didn’t cause any additional pain or discomfort. Pairs great with shorts, pants, and dresses."
