TOMS Women's Alpargata Slip-On

TOMS, a socially conscious footwear brand, was founded in 2006 by Blake Mycoskie after a trip to Argentina. Inspired by the traditional "alpargata" shoes he encountered, Mycoskie set out to reinvent the design for the US market, with the goal of providing shoes to those in need.

The TOMS classic Alpargata features a unique slip-on design, with clean lines and lightweight, vibrant fabrics. The uppers are made from Earthwise textiles, while the outsole is crafted from durable rubber, standing approximately 1/2 inch in height.

Comfort and support are prioritized in the TOMS Alpargata, thanks to the custom CloudBound foam insoles. These insoles are made with 50% eco-friendly materials, including 25% recycled polyurethane foam, 15% recycled rubber, and 10% bio-oil.

TOMS' commitment to social responsibility is at the heart of the brand. The company pledges to donate one-third of its profits to support various grassroots initiatives, partnering with local organizations to address mental health, increase access to opportunity, and combat gun violence.

During the brand's inaugural year, TOMS sold 10,000 pairs of shoes and Mycoskie returned to Argentina to oversee the first annual Shoe Drop, where he donated shoes to the children who had inspired him.

Today, TOMS Shoes are available in a wide range of colors and fabric combinations, catering to men, women, and children. The recently introduced Tiny TOMS line caters specifically to the little ones.

The TOMS Alpargata is available in both domestic and imported options, with the manufacturer's origins clearly indicated on the product details. Consumers can choose from Canvas or Rubber soles, ensuring a versatile and durable footwear option.

TOMS' commitment to social good, coupled with their stylish and comfortable designs, has made the brand a popular choice among ethically-minded consumers. By providing shoes to those in need and supporting various community initiatives, TOMS continues to make a positive impact worldwide.
