Can someone explain TOMS to me???

I don't understand why they're in...especially in the summer. They're the ugliest shoes i've ever seen.

Can someone enlighten me?Chat Icon

I don't know.. everytime I see a pair all I think is if I had to imagine what the very first pair of shoes looked like; one that a person cut and sewed together by hand, that would be it

Their wedges are really cute and they give a free pair to a poor child for every pair bought.

So are the kids shoes!

See, those are cute but the regular ones, especially the crocheted ones... Well they remind me of something my mom would have worn when she was my age Chat Icon when I heard they were popular, I went to check them out, and I wanted to like them... But I just couldn't.

On a side note, loafers are making a comeback, who is excited about that? Chat Icon Chat Icon

I was just out east and everyone has on TOMS I guess it has a cool surfer retro vibe and everyone that works in the garment center are wearing them as well. I like their policy, just can't stand the look but they are hot right now.

Ugh I work in the button building, maybe that's why I see them everywhere!!!!!! Love the concept but they make uggs look gorgeous in comparison!

I think it has more to do w/their giving of shoes to a child in need...

for every pair of TOMS shoes you buy, they give a pair to a child in need

My DD has a pair but I couldn't bring myself to buy a matching pair. I do really like the wedges, but they are Chat Icon IMO

I think they're kinda cute, but can't justify spending the $$$ on them right now.

I like their mission, and since everyone says they are comfy, I might go buy a pair today since I need a good shoe to wear in Europe.
