The Collabs: Rothy’s Debuts Adorable First Shoe Collaboration + More News

Aug. 2, 2019: Rothy’s is getting into the collaboration game, starting with a special kids’ shoe collection designed by illustrator Pete Oswald. A father of three, Oswald outfitted the brand’s knit children’s sneaker with four adorable animal motifs: a cat, an orangutan, flamingoes and elephants. The shoes are retailing on Rothys.com for $55 and come in kid sizes 10-4. This the first in a series of collaborative projects for the DTC label: It says that down the line it aims to also work with a fashion designer, ballerina, chef and artist.
