Rothy’s sustainable shoes are supposed to fit true to size. However, some customers prefer to size up in the pointed flat shoe because of the shape of the toe.

Rothy’s shoes do not have a break-in period. Meaning, you do not need to wear Rothy’s shoes for a significant amount of time in order for them to fit your foot perfectly. They should fit perfectly the first day you buy them, which is a part of their appeal. These shoes will also not stretch out like shoes of similar brands.

The Rothy’s sneaker may begin to have some slight give when being worn inside. The sneaker also has enhanced comfort due to the addition of the midsole, which the other shoe styles do not have.

You must wash the shoes in cold water and remove the insoles before washing. Use mild detergent and let the shoes air dry after they are washed.

Rothy’s do not do well in heat. This includes warm water, dryers, and outside heat (Do not put the outside to dry). This is when warping and shrinking occurs, and you are going to want to avoid both of those things in order to keep your shoes clean and pristine!
