Reviews

Disappointed

"I own several pairs of Rothy’s and these are, by far, my least favorite. I bought a half size smaller because of the heel strap. They still came off my feet frequently. They are also not comfortable. The style of the shoe does not allow for any cushioning or support. I bought them to wear for a special occasion and I will probably not wear them again."

— Mary H. (3/5)

Surprisingly comfortable!

"I love these sling backs, very comfortable. Sizing is a little wonky from one style to another, definitely try them on ahead of time if you can, I am stuck with two pair in other styles because sizing is inconsistent between styles."

— Tammie G. (5/5)

Classic

"Almond is my favorite shoe shape and I really wish Rothy’s would make a regular almond that wasn’t sling back. There isn’t any support in these shoes. I typically wear a 7. 5 and I did get a 7 based on reviews. I honestly probably could’ve gone for a 6."

— Chelsea W. (4/5)

Cute but as comfortable

"Shoe fit in my normal 7. 5 size. No blister or irritation on the heel and plenty of toe space. However, the sole of the shoe is not very comfortable if you’ll be on your feet a lot."

— Nicole P. (4/5)

New favorites

"I already have multiple pairs of Rothys but these are now my new favorite. I love the look and feel of them and can wear them to work and out casually with friends. I brought them on my work trip and have been wearing them with everything, including the days we are doing lots of walking. Will buy in more colors!"

— Marissa C. (5/5)

I really wanted these to work for me and I’m sad they don’t.

"There really isn’t any structure for arch support. My toes get squeezed together in the cap toe and the give me blisters. My feet are a regular width as I have very petite 5’2 102lbs. The website recommend to size a half size down because they run big but this was totally off. I wear high heels every single day and my feet needed a break so I decided I would finally invest in a pair of these hoping for a solution to a comfortable work shoe, which is seemingly impossible to find."

— Charlotte W. (1/5)

So stylish yet comfortable

"Rothys never let me down in style or comfort. These sling backs are on heavy rotation in my closet right now. True to size and comfortable all day long."

— Diane W. (5/5)

Beautiful and comfy

"This was my first pair of rothy’s! They maybe come up half a size larger than my regular size. They’re very comfy, classy and look great. I shall be buying more!"

— Beth T. (5/5)

Dress Up or Down

"For those women who’ve given up high heels, these are for you. They are comfortable, attractive and best of all, you can wash with water & a cloth if dirty."

— Joy L. (5/5)

Soooo pretty

"The metallic prosecco color is so pretty and an easy way to dress up an outfit. I took the recommendation of others and ordered a half size smaller than my usual Rothy’s size and am glad I did. The shoes fit well and are comforatable in this smaller size."

— Christine P. (5/5)
