Best for Rothy's Point 2 is shaping up to be a game-changing upgrade for anyone seeking comfortable, sustainable, stylish footwear. A super-comfortable, machine-washable shoe that's worth the investment despite limited all-weather versatility.
Pros
  • Cloud-like "In Love Insole™" with heel-to-toe cushioning
  • Better fit with refined shape (no toe outline)
  • Added elastic for all-day flexibility and wearability
  • Made from recycled water bottles with minimal waste production
  • Certified B Corp with genuine eco-friendly practices
  • The Wool Runner is an absolute 10/10 for comfort and casual wear. Everything else they've made is always a little bit of a trade-off from that.
  • They offered incredible comfort, especially for someone like me who struggles with plantar fasciitis.
  • I've worn the new Wool Runners NZs for 3 months and they're the best shoes yet. I wear them everywhere.
  • I was shocked when I got them, expecting them to be garbage. The sole has less forefoot cushioning but they feel like similar shoes to the NZs.
Cons
  • This is why I will NEVER buy shoes that use naked foam cushioning as a sole. You really can't complain about short lifespan.
