TOMS one for one

TOMS one for one

In 2006, American traveler Blake Mycoskie befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created TOMS Shoes, a company that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need. One for One. 


Very shortly the TOMS shoe company will record their one millionth pair of shoes given to a child in need. What an amazing achievement!


TOMS shoes incorporate all natural materials in their production such as cotton and have a line of vegan-friendly footwear which bar all animal products in their content.
