Amber R.

She’s well loved and still looks like new! The Brooke mule in camel is for sure always fighting for first place in my TRC collection. I wear these 3 seasons and multiple days a week. Just so easy to wear!! She’ll always be a fav!

One of the first pair of TRC shoes I ordered! Love my Thea in Chestnut. She goes with all the things. Dress up or down or anywhere in between. Every wardrobe needs a pair!

This bag is so versatile and holds all the essentials! I’m wearing it with a different strap in the photo but with the chestnut strap it’s even more neutral. Great bag for every day!

Abigail D.

This is my favorite Jessie to wear in Fall/Winter. The wine color is an unexpected great neutral. It goes with so much and hides dirt very well. I feel like I can wear them to do anything and I’m not worried about them showing wear which by the way they are so durable!

Nora in cream goes with everything. I had a white pair of sandals from another shoe brand that broke so I was thrilled to replace them with a pair I know will last a long time.

Love this classic shoe! The coastal blue option is no longer available but styling this shoe (no matter the color) is so fun! I love how put together I feel just sliding into her.

This boot is so classy! They look great with jeans, skirts, you name it! I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to get a pair! They are just gorgeous!

Autumn A.Verified

My feet are on the narrow side and I cannot get over how well these fit my feet! But don’t let that deter you if you have a wider foot because the leather (especially soft leather like these have) conforms to your feet over time. I love the look and feel of these shoes and they work well for work or play.

These are the best boots! So comfy, cute, and sexy! I am not a heels girl but I can do these gorgeous boots - perfect for my high instep and slightly wide feet- just slip on and go!

These shoes are SO comfy, even directly out of the box! They are a perfect dressier sandal option to wear to the office with sundresses, or as a casual weekend option.

These are great! They are a bit big, but I always go big to be safe. I wore these all day and after work grocery shopping. I love the mission and how it is handmade.

Beautiful, light weight neutral earrings with a little sparkle that are perfect to dress up or even to add something a little special to a casual outfit.

These shoes are beautiful and comfortable straight out of the box. They work for casual or dressy, socks or no-shows. I feel like I could wear them all the time!

Allie J.Verified

These are so cute! I love the geometric shape of the leather and the gold chain in the middle makes them more interesting. I also love that they keep leather scrap waste out of the landfill.

Once again I find myself thinking, "The Root Collective has knocked this out of the park." This shoe was comfortable straight out of the box (not common because my feet are on the wide side) and is fast becoming a staple.

These sandals are beautiful and I just love the creamy white color. They go with everything and are unbelievably comfortable.

Deborah N.Verified

Gorgeous shoes. I got these during the less than perfect sale, but they arrived in perfect condition. They are made with the usual TRC quality workmanship and beautiful colored leather. They were slightly tight across the toes upon initial wear, which reminds me of how my TRC Theas first fit. But Thea broke in perfectly after a few wears, and I'm sure these will, too.

I can't believe I'm just discovering the Root Collective and its environment loving values. I purchased perfect pre-loved huaraches (woven sandals) in a beautiful mustard. Can't wait for this Chicago weather to break so I can wear them.

These shoes are amazing. I truly wasn’t expecting to love them as a comfort shoe but you put them on and they are butter soft and so comfortable!

Elizabeth L.Verified

These are gorgeous! I love the contrast piping and the snakeskin imprint on the leather. The grip is good as well. Currently a little stiff, but hopefully will become softer with more wear.

Alex is my new favorite sneaker. I love the style, and they are super comfortable. I'm typically a 9.5, so I sized down to 9 as suggested and they're perfect!

Amy I.Verified

Love these! The wide toe box is comfy. They’re well-made; I can tell they will last a long time. Love the black w/white color since it is distinct but versatile. I’ve been looking for new leather casual sneaks for a while and almost bought another pair of brand names…. So glad I remembered RC!

Janni C.Verified

Best Buy yet. these boots are spectacular. They are easy on / easy off. They are supple. They are smooth. They are quality. I get so many compliments on these boots - I always tell people about The Root Collective after I say thanks. There's something about the design that makes this the perfect boot. Plotting my next pair!

New fave shoes! These sneakers are so fun and extra comfy, especially with the rounded toe box and more toe space - great for wide feet. Can’t wait for more colors!

First time I put them on I wore them five hours and they were awesome! That never happens. So glad I made this investment. Love that it gives beyond my purchase.

I love these earrings! They are so lightweight that I forget I have them on, yet they add a beautiful touch to whatever I'm wearing that day. Highly recommend these! Please make more colors.

Melissa L.Verified

Absolutely *LOVE* these! I've already ordered another pair! I'm usually an 8.5/9, and the 8 works great for me in the Alex! Don't wait on this one! They are amazing!

If you don't like attention, then don't get these shoes in this orchid color! I got compliments on these the first time I wore them. I have wide feet, usually wear an 8, and these fit perfectly in that size. The strap gives a little "wiggle room" for sizing, so not as much break-in needed as with a more structured shoe.

Cassidy Wedge in Orchid Leather (PREORDER)

Abigail D.Verified

This strap is gorgeous! I’m a sucker for all of the ikats and unique fabrics TRC incorporates into their products. This is a fun unexpected neutral that goes with so much.

A few years ago, I got the Gaby in size eight, my normal size; they were too small and had to be exchanged for a size 9. Since that time, TRC has made modifications to the sizing, and now a size eight really IS a size eight. Happy to say that these fit perfectly and will be fun little shoes to wear in warmer weather.

Heidi M.Verified

A classy black heel is a staple in most women's shoe wardrobe and this one is THE BEST. The sexy cutout + the COMFORT. I never thought a shoe with 3" heels would be comfortable, but these are. My foot is a bit wide and the toe box needed stretching at first, but once that was done these fit like a glove. I know this classic pair of shoes is timeless and will last in my closet for years.

Chrissie Heel in Noir Leather (PREORDER)

Dana S.Verified

Perfect neutral for all seasons (except maybe not in Colorado!) Love this classic style in camel - they are a bit tight to get on at first but I know they will stretch and mold to my feet. Beautiful craftsmanship 🤎

Piper Flat in Camel Leather (INSTOCK)

Christine K.Verified

The Piper is so comfortable and so stylish! I took a major risk and decided to break them in on a full day of walking in a major city--no pain or problems whatsoever. They have only gotten more comfortable with each wear. The camel color is a great staple that goes with so many things. I've gotten many compliments when wearing them as well. I like that they can be fairly casual or slightly dressy. A great shoe!

I've used the water protectant on all my leather shoes and bags. It blends in well and actually smells so much better than most shoe products! I'm really impressed and plan on purchasing more Chamberlain products in the future.

Elizabeth L.Verified

These are very comfortable and feel sturdy due to the strap. The brown color is beautiful. They remind me so much of a pair of shoes I wore out at least 10 years ago and have always wanted to replace.

undefined review of Custom Millie image 1 out of 1

Colleen A.

I measure a 10.5 shoe size and borderline narrow. I sized down to a 10 as I usually do with TRC slip on flats. The toe box is a little tight for me straight out of the box, but I am hoping this will be comfortable after a few more wears as the leather molds to my feet.
