Guys, ROTHY’S! They don’t have a lifetime guarantee, but I’ve had this pair 6 years and look at them! These were an absolute muddy mess before I threw them in the washer. Bonus, they are even comfortable.meowmiixx t1_jbnuis5 wrote
I want to try them but I don’t wear anything without arch support.

Because of this I now wear Allbirds. Much more support and the same ability to throw in the washer etc.

I’ve been looking at getting them for years and could never justify it! I might go order some right now.

You won’t regret it!

I tried allbirds because rothys don’t ship to Australia anymore, and I can’t stand them!!! They are about to go to the charity store, I wore them once and they felt all slippery and weird.
Now have three pairs of rothy’s that I got second hand, they are absolutely the best shoe I’ve ever worn.

I have them and barely wear them for exactly this reason. They make nice travel slippers, though.

You can add insoles with arch support, just take out the Rothy’s ones

Most people wear far more arch support than they actually need. Sure, some people have deformities which make it necessary, but a lot of people just have weak feet and wear increasingly built-up shoes as a crutch, further crippling themselves.

I can’t speak to others but I naturally have very high arches

It doesnt have to do with the size of your arches. Whether they are weak or collapsed.

really? i'm actually genuinely curious about this. i wear ultraboost dna for the support and they're so comfortable but most ballet flats with nothing in them hurt my feet if i wear them more than an hour

If you buy them a size to size and half to big (two sizes up for points) you can add insoles to them. I like the Vionic 3/4 insole.
I wish the Allbirds looked good on my feet. I have heard good things about the Allbirds insoles as well but haven’t tried them.

A few people suggested this but I feel like Rothy’s already has a high price tag. If I’m spending money on something I want it to work out of the box. Maybe if I try them on irl and they look amazing on me I could be swayed but I won’t bet on it.
Edit: I’m comparing the price to all birds
