 Exhibit 10.1 

SPONSOR GUARANTEE 

May 1, 2014 

This Sponsor Guarantee (this “Guarantee”) is made and entered into as of the date set forth above by
Mill Road Capital II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Guarantor”), in favor and for the benefit of R. G. Barry Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used in
this Guarantee but not otherwise defined herein have the respective meanings given to such terms in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from
time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Company, MRGB Hold Co., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and MRVK Merger Co., an Ohio corporation (“Merger Sub”). 

 1. Guarantee; Obligations. To induce the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which, and subject
to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the Surviving Corporation, the Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees to the Company, pursuant to the terms and
subject to the conditions herein, the due, punctual and complete payment and performance of the payment obligations of Parent to pay, as applicable (i) contingent upon the Closing, and when and if due after the Effective Time, the Equity
Portion of the Payment Fund, (ii) when and if due, any amounts that Parent has agreed to reimburse the Company pursuant to Section 6.5(b) of the Merger Agreement, and (iii) when and if due, the Parent Termination Fee (such amounts, as
applicable, the Guarantor’s “Obligations”). All payments by Guarantor hereunder shall be made in immediately available United States funds. Solely with respect to the Guarantor’s Obligations under
Sections 1(ii) and (iii), but not with respect to the Guarantor’s Obligations under Section 1(i) to pay the Equity Portion of the Payment Fund, Guarantor reserves the right to (a) set-off any amount owed under such Obligations by the
Guarantor against any payment owing by the Company to Parent, Merger Sub, the Guarantor or any of their respective affiliates, and (b) assert any and all defenses which Parent or Merger Sub may have to payment of such Obligations. The parties
hereto agree that this Guarantee may not be enforced without giving effect to limitations on the Guarantor’s liability in the amount of its Obligations. For the purposes hereof, “Equity Portion” means the
total amount resulting from (w) the aggregate amount of the Payment Fund, plus, (x) the aggregate amount of the payment obligations of the Surviving Corporation under Section 2.3 of the Merger Agreement, minus
(y) the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (or any Alternative Financing) contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter, and minus (z) the Company’s cash and short term marketable securities as of the
Effective Time. 
 2. Unconditional Guarantee. The Company shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the
Obligations in the event that Parent or Merger Sub becomes subject to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Company to so file shall not affect the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. This is an unconditional
guarantee of payment and performance and not of collectibility, and one or more separate actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee, irrespective of whether any action is brought against Parent or Merger Sub or
whether Parent or Merger Sub is joined in any such action or actions, provided that Guarantor shall have the right to assert defenses that Parent or Merger Sub may have to the payment of any Obligations under the terms of the Merger Agreement, other
than any such defense arising out of, due to, or as a result of, the insolvency or bankruptcy of Parent or Merger Sub. If any payment by Parent or Merger Sub of the Obligations  

 
is rescinded or must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever (other than pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement or due to a breach of the Merger Agreement by the Company), the
Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder with respect to the Obligations (plus any Prevailing Party Cost, as defined in Section 16 below) as if such payment had not been made. 

3. Changes in Obligations; Certain Waivers. 

(a) The Guarantor agrees that the Company may, at any time and from time to time, without notice to or further consent
of the Guarantor, make any agreement with Parent or Merger Sub for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge, or release of any of the Obligations, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement
between the Company and Parent or Merger Sub without in any way impairing or affecting this Guarantee. The Guarantor agrees that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be released or discharged, in whole or in part, or otherwise
affected by (i) the failure of the Company to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against Parent or Merger Sub with respect to the Obligations; (ii) any agreement with Parent or Merger Sub with respect to
(a) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of any of the Obligations, (b) any rescission, waiver, compromise, consolidation, or other amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Merger Agreement or
(c) any other agreement evidencing, securing, or otherwise executed in connection with any of the Obligations; (iii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Parent or Merger Sub; (v) any insolvency,
bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting Parent or Merger Sub; (vi) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right that the Guarantor may have at any time against Parent or Merger Sub, whether in connection with the
Merger Agreement, the Obligations, or otherwise; or (vi) the adequacy of any other means the Company may have of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations. 

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all rights or defenses arising
by reason of any law that would otherwise require any election of remedies by the Company. The Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, notice of the acceptance of this Guarantee and of the Obligations, presentment, demand for payment, notice of
non-performance, default, dishonor and protest, notice of any Obligations incurred and any and all other notices of any kind (except for notices required to be provided to Parent and Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement), all defenses that may be
available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law, or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshalling of assets of Parent or Merger Sub with respect to any of the Obligations, and all suretyship defenses
generally (whether at law or in equity), other than breach by the Company of this Guarantee. The Guarantor acknowledges that, as an Affiliate of Parent and Merger Sub, it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions
contemplated by the Merger Agreement and that the waivers set forth in this Guarantee are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits and after the advice of counsel. 

4. No Waiver; Cumulative Rights. No failure on the part of the Company to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right,
remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Company of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power. Each and 

  
 2 

 
every right, remedy and power hereby granted to the Company or allowed it by law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other, and may be exercised by the Company at any
time or from time to time. The Company shall not have any obligation to proceed at any time or in any manner against, or exhaust any or all of the Company’s rights against, Parent or Merger Sub prior to proceeding against Guarantor. Following
the Effective Time, the rights of the Company under this Guarantee may not be waived without the written consent of a majority of the individuals who were serving as directors of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time. 

5. Representations and Warranties. The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Company that: 

(a) the Guarantor has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Guarantee and to pay and perform the
Obligations; 
 (b) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate, partnership or limited liability company action and do not contravene any provision of the Guarantor’s charter, partnership agreement, operating agreement, or similar organizational documents or any law, regulation, rule,
decree, order, judgment, or contractual restriction binding on the Guarantor or its assets; 
 (c) all consents,
approvals, authorizations, permits of, or filings with and notifications to, any governmental authority necessary for the due execution, delivery and performance of this Guarantee by the Guarantor have been obtained or made, and all conditions
thereof have been duly complied with, and no other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Guarantee; 

(d) this Guarantee constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor
in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) general equitable principles
(whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and 
 (e) Guarantor has the financial capacity to pay and perform its
obligations under this Guarantee, and all funds necessary for the Guarantor to fulfill its Obligations under this Guarantee are currently available to Guarantor and shall remain available to the Guarantor for so long as this Guarantee shall remain
in effect in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 
 6. Assignment. The Guarantor may not assign or delegate, as applicable,
its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder to any other person (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the Company. The rights of the Company under this Guarantee may not be assigned without the prior
written consent of Guarantor; provided, however, that, following the Effective Time, the rights of the Company under this Guarantee may not be assigned without the written consent of a majority of the individuals who were serving as directors of the
Company immediately prior to the Effective Time.

connection therewith, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Company against one or both of Parent or Merger

property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Obligations and Prevailing Party Costs (as defined below), if applicable, shall have been terminated or paid in
full or, in the case of the Obligations, fully provided for by the irrevocable deposit of immediately available funds to the Payment Fund described in Section 2.2 of the Merger Agreement. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in
violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the payment in full in cash of the Obligations and Prevailing Party Costs, if applicable, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Company, shall be
segregated from other property and funds of the Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Company in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Obligations and
Prevailing Party Costs, if applicable, whether matured or unmatured.  
 16. Costs and
Expenses. In any action at law or suit in equity to enforce this Guarantee or the rights of any of the parties hereunder, the prevailing party in such action or suit shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party

VOTING AGREEMENT 

THIS VOTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), is made
and entered into as of May 1, 2014, by and between Mill Road Capital II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Shareholder”), and R. G. Barry Corporation, an Ohio corporation (the “Company”).

 RECITALS: 

WHEREAS, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, there has been executed an
Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, supplemented, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, MRVK Merger Co., an
Ohio corporation (“Merger Sub”) and MRGB Hold Co., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company
(the “Merger”), with the Company as the Surviving Corporation. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement; 

WHEREAS, as an Affiliate of Parent and Merger Sub, Shareholder acknowledges it will receive substantial
direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; 
 WHEREAS,
Shareholder is the record or beneficial holder of 1,093,189 Company Common Shares (as defined in Section 1.1 below); 

WHEREAS, as a material inducement for the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement, Shareholder is willing to agree to
vote the Shares (as defined in Section 1.1 below), so as to facilitate consummation of the Merger. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows: 
 1. Voting of Shares. 

1.1. Shares. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Shares” means
all of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Shares, par value $1.00 per share (the “Company Common Shares”), owned of record or beneficially owned by Shareholder or over which Shareholder exercises voting power as
of the date of this Agreement, together with any shares of capital stock of the Company that Shareholder purchases or otherwise acquires beneficial ownership of, or over which Shareholder exercises voting power, after the date of this Agreement and
prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 4 and any stock dividends and distributions and shares of capital stock contemplated by Section 1.4 below. 

1.2 Agreement to Vote Shares. Shareholder hereby covenants and agrees that during the period commencing on the
date hereof and continuing until this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 4 hereof, at any meeting (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting) of the shareholders of the Company, however
called, and in any action by written consent of the shareholders of the Company, Shareholder shall appear at the meeting or otherwise cause any and all Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum and vote (or cause
to be 

  
 1 

 
voted) any and all Shares in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement. Shareholder further agrees not to enter into any agreement or understanding with any person or entity the effect of
which would be inconsistent with or violative of any provision contained in this Section 1.2. 
 1.3
Waiver of Appraisal Rights. Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to exercise or assert, any rights of appraisal, dissenters’ rights or similar rights at any time in connection
with the Merger. 
 1.4 Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization. In the event of any change in the number of
issued and outstanding shares of Company Common Shares by reason of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Company Common Shares), combination, reorganization,
recapitalization or other like change, conversion or exchange of shares, or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company, the term “Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and include the Shares as well as all such
stock dividends and distributions and any shares of capital stock into which or for which any or all of the Shares may be changed or exchanged. 

2. Transfer and Other Restrictions. Shareholder represents, covenants and agrees that, except as agreed to by the Company in
writing: (i) Shareholder shall not, directly or indirectly, during the period commencing on the date hereof and continuing until this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 4 hereof, offer for sale or agree to sell,
transfer, tender, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of or enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or understanding with respect to, or consent to, the offer for sale, sale, transfer, tender, pledge, hypothecation,
encumbrance, assignment or other disposition of, or create any Lien of any nature whatsoever with respect to, any or all of the Shares or any interest therein; provided, however, that Shareholder may contribute the Shares to
Parent as contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (ii) Shareholder shall not grant any proxy or power of attorney, or deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or other arrangement, with respect to the voting of
Shares (each a “Voting Proxy”) except (A) proxies delivered to management, so long as such proxies do not contravene Shareholder’s obligations pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof or
(B) by order of a court of competent jurisdiction; and (iii) Shareholder has not granted, entered into or otherwise created any Voting Proxy which is currently (or which will hereafter become) effective, and if any Voting Proxy has been
created, such Voting Proxy is hereby revoked. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement does not amend or modify, or change or limit in any way, the obligations and agreements of Mill Road Capital Management LLC pursuant to
Section 7 of the Confidentiality Agreement.

 2 

 3.2 Non-Contravention. To the knowledge of the Shareholder, the
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement does not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and compliance with the provisions hereof will not, contravene, conflict with, or result in any violation of, breach of or
default by (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both) Shareholder under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets
of Shareholder under, any provision of (i) Shareholder’s charter, bylaws, partnership agreement or other organizational documents, if applicable, (ii) any loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other
agreement, instrument, permit, concession, franchise or license applicable to Shareholder or (iii) any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, injunction, rule or regulation applicable to Shareholder or any of Shareholder’s
properties or assets , other than any such conflicts, violations, defaults, rights or Encumbrances that, individually or in the aggregate would not impair the Shareholder’s ability to perform the Shareholder’s obligations hereunder. There
is no beneficiary or holder of a voting trust certificate or other interest of any trust of which Shareholder is settlor or trustee or any other person or entity, including any Governmental Entity, whose consent, approval, order or authorization is
required by or with respect to Shareholder for the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by Shareholder or the consummation by Shareholder of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

3.3 Title. Shareholder is the record or beneficial owner of the Company Common Shares indicated in the recitals
to this Agreement, which, on and as of the date hereof, are free and clear of any Liens that, individually or in the aggregate, would impair the ability of Shareholder to perform Shareholder’s obligations hereunder or prevent, limit or restrict

effective upon its execution by Shareholder and the Company and upon the execution of the Merger Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by mutual written consent of Shareholder and the Company. This Agreement, and the obligations of
Shareholder hereunder, including, without limitation, Shareholder’s obligations under Section 1 and Section 2 above, shall terminate, without any action by the parties hereto, upon the earlier to occur of
the following: (i) the Effective Time; (ii) the occurrence of any event or circumstance set forth in Section 8.3(a) of the Merger Agreement; and (iii) such date and time as the Merger Agreement shall have been validly terminated

under applicable laws and regulations to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 6.
Miscellaneous.

relief or by any other means available to the Company at law or in equity and Shareholder hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the Company seeking so to enforce such covenants and agreements by specific performance,
injunctive relief and other means. If any action, suit or other proceeding (whether at law, in equity or otherwise) is instituted concerning or arising out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereunder, the prevailing party shall
recover, in addition to any other remedy granted to such party therein, all such party’s costs and attorneys fees incurred in connection with the prosecution or defense of such action, suit or other proceeding.
