Fall’s must-have statement purse from Rothy’s is Meghan Markle–approved and eco-friendly.
Rothy’s is an iconic shoe brand known for trendy women’s styles including sneakers, loafers, ballet flats and pointed flats. Among their celebrity fans are Meghan Markle, who wore a pair of Rothy’s comfortable eco-friendly shoes during a trip to Australia in 2018 and to Africa in late September 2019 with Prince Harry. Other celebs who have been spotted wearing Rothy's include Olivia Munn, Lily Collins, Chloe Sevigny, Jessica Biel, Emma Roberts, Lili Reinhart, Isla Fischer and Mandy Moore.
All of Rothy's sustainable flats are crafted from environmentally friendly materials, like recycled plastic bottles. The shoes are made using a knitting process in which the single continuous yarn is derived from recycled plastic water bottles and marine plastic. Rothy’s latest brand expansion is another sustainable staple: an eco-friendly handbag collection.
Rothy’s recently unearthed a collection of handbags and accessories made from recycled plastic waste that was, quite literally, fished out of the ocean. The handbags are made from the same knit material and knitting process as the footwear. However, the sustainably knit material for these bags is a blend of its post-consumer single-use plastic water recycled bottle yarn and recycled plastic collected within 30 miles of coastlines. The ocean plastic, including plastic water bottles, is then recycled similar to other plastic products. The only difference is that the plastic extracted from the seawater in the ocean weakens the plastic, allowing it to be used to make these trendy and environmentally friendly handbags.
When it came to designing the bags, Rothy’s was adamant about giving the purses the same style and quality as their fashionable women's shoes. Like their signature footwear, the handbags (priced from $65 to $350) are machine-washable and made using sustainable practices. Whenever your handbag is in need of a cleaning, just simply drop it into your washing machine to make it just like new!
The sustainable appeal of Rothy's machine-washable shoes (whose prices range from $125 to $165) now includes 15 styles of handbags with shades like Light Lime and Bright Poppy to add a pop of color to your wardrobe. The handbags and small pouches come in an identical color palette as Rothy’s shoes. And many of the handbags have the Rothy’s brand signature stripe, so you can match your new purse to your shoes if you are so inclined.
