Rothy’s Mary Jane Review

TL;DR — Rothy’s Mary Jane ($155) is genuinely lovely — right up until the bow straps ripped after a handful of wears. Rothy’s response: $30 off a replacement, not a fix.

Loafer Roundup

TL;DR — We tested 5 women’s loafers ranging from $95 to $180: Allbirds wins on comfort but looks like slippers; Rothy’s ($125, washable) and Everlane ($180, leather, still going strong after a year+) are our picks.
