Reviews

Comfort and Style

"I’ve been wearing good athletic shoes at work primarily for years, and needed a change. The big department store recommended Rothy’s, so I went for it, and I LOVE them! Plenty of room in the toe box, no bunion chafing, not even a break-in period. These just fit right from the start. I have 5 pair so far"

— Virginia C. (5/5)

Best Toe Box So Far

"These are the least restrictive Rothys I've tried and they are very comfortable! I don't have wide feet but am more and more aware of the spacing our feet should ideally have (vs being squished into a triangle). Loved these and ended up ordered a second color. They're great travel shoes! Ah, and with all my Rothys, I sized up (non-Rothys size 8.5-9; drivers size 9.5)."

— Jessica A. (5/5)

Great Loafers

"I have had these before and just purchased them in Morel and Black. They are super comfortable with no break in time. I have a bunion and I never have a problem. I wore them walking in Europe and my feet felt great. I hope they keep making them."

— Barbara R. (5/5)

All-Day Comfort From the Box

"This is my first pair of Rothy's. Bought them for an early Fall trip into NYC. I had instant comfort from them right out of the box! I walked for 3 days in the city w/o any discomfort. Airline attendant noticed them, loved the pattern, and said she has a pair in black for work and finds them just as comfortable as me. I will order more!"

— Carrie G. (5/5)

Updated Daily Driver

"I loved my old Driver from Rothy's and was worried the newly updated Daily Driver wouldn't be as good. Luckily, these are just as comfortable. I can stand on my feet all day wearing these. I got this in Portobello and they pair well any clothes. Fits true-to-size."

— v l. (5/5)

Reliable work staple

"These fit perfectly and don't squeeze my toes like a lot of the popular pointed shoes do. I'm on my feet a lot at work, and these are comfortable, don't make my feet sweat like leather shoes and can be washed."

— Hannah M. (5/5)

Very Comfy!

"The first day I took them off after wearing all day and my feet felt relief so I assumed they would be uncomfortable for all day wear again but when I wore them again, they were very comfy because I guess they had adjusted to my foot. I can wear them all day. I hope my big toe doesn’t rip through them as that usually happens with shoes, wish they come out with platforms soon!"

— Catalina B. (5/5)

First Rothy's

"I absolutely love these rothy's and can't believe I have never tried one on before. They are super comfortable and mold to my feet. I wear them all day commuting to the office and walk around the city."

— Laura H. (5/5)

Classic & comfy

"The shoe is impressively comfortable to walk and stand in, and I love the classic and quality look of the shoe. Price is steep, so I'll have to see how they hold up before I determine if it's worth it to invest in other colors."

— Christi M. (5/5)

Black toe

"It’s too narrow on width and height Toes are pushed down Got a black toe after the day It may take a really long time to adjust Also they look pretty cheap, not impressed, I liked the pointed toes and have been wearing them for almost a decade but these ones are not working so far"
