Sustainable since day one.
At Rothy’s, we take a whole brand approach to sustainability. From our materials to our production to the way we treat our people, we consider sustainability every step of the way. And we’ve been that way since the very beginning.
1. Be flakey
Single-use plastic
bottles are chipped into
little flakes.
2. Under pressure
Those tiny flakes
are then pressed into
tiny pellets.
3. Thread cred
Pellets are made
into spools of thread
and knit into shoes.
plastic water bottles—and counting.
Every minute, one million water bottles are sold globally. And unfortunately, 91% of the world’s plastic does not get recycled. By knitting the uppers of our shoes from recycled plastic water bottles, we divert waste from landfills every day and look great while doing it.
