Zooming in
Rothy's was initially founded in 2012 and launched in 2016 as a women's shoe company in San Francisco, California, according to the store's website. However, the American brand grew over the last few decades and expanded to include handbags and a men's fashion line.
Now, the store sells women's shoes, including sandals, clogs and flats, as well as handbags in styles such as the casual crossbody, large tote and crescent-shaped purse. Men's shoes include sneakers, loafers, clogs and flip flops.

Items sold at Rothy's are made from recycled plastic bottles, natural hemp and merino wool. According to the company's website, the brand has kept more than 715,353lbs of marine plastic out of oceans by using single-use plastic bottles as the brand's signature thread.
Rothy's fashion designers also utilizes hemp and RWS-Certified Merino Wool to create their shoes. RWS-Certified is a certification that ensures wool comes from farms with responsible practices for animal welfare and land management, according to the Textile Exchange.
Purchases are also shipped in boxes made from recycled materials and handbags purchased at Rothy's are machine washable.
