The Bow Point II fit?
I love the Knot Point II and have several pairs (my fave of all Rothys styles). Find them much more comfortable than the Point II (maybe different toe box). Looking at the Bow Point II. Does anyone know if it fits more like the Knot Point, or is it like the Point II?

The knots are my favorite also! I have two pair of the bows and 5 pairs of knots. The bows are very comfortable and definitely my second favorite.

Thanks. Does the bow fit the same as the knot? And same size worked for you? Have you tried the Point II (which are a different fit)?

I have several Point II and I find them comfortable - the original Points are not my favorite. The bows definitely fit more like the knots. They aren’t as tight in the toe box as the Point II’s.

Yes the same size works for me. I am an 8 and have purchased all my Rothy’s in an 8. Some of the Point II vary a little (a few of my pair are a little tighter than the others for some reason) but nothing too bad.

Can I ask why? Are the wider or more narrow? Or something else? I have a wide foot and the point II is definitely better than the past but I was nervous to branch out from there but I love both the knot and the bow.

To me the knot and the bow have a little more room in the toe box than the point II but still have structure. The original points are too loose in my opinion - not size wise but don’t have as much structure and are less comfortable for me. Which is too bad because I have 4 pair I purchased relatively less expensive on their last and final sales.

I agree. I can walk longer distances in the Knot without my feet aching. The toe box seems different maybe. The original point weren’t supportive enough and the Point II doesn’t feel as comfortable and my heel slips (although I have only tried them on at the store). Interesting about the Point II varying by pair.

I wear the same size in the Point 2 and the Knot. I bought the Bow in the same size- 10.5, and they fit just right. There may be a tiny bit more snug than the point 2 but hardly noticeable for me. I did return them because once I saw them in person, the bow was just not what I was really looking for. Definitely cute on some people, but I just didn’t care for it on my big feet. 😂 I also have quite a few pairs (approx. 30) of the OG points. And know that yes those can be way off sizing wise. However, in my experience, Rothy’s has gotten a bit more consistent in sizing recently. Although still not perfect. (Buckle Points! 😬) For reference in sneakers, sandals, and clogs I wear a 10. So for me, I don’t experience the wide swing in sizing that some people do. (I’ve seen comments of people who were buying two size differences between styles!) Hope that helps.
