In 2006 an 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. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by caring TOMS customers.

Since our beginning, TOMS has given over 150,000* pairs of shoes to children in need through the One for One model. Because of your support, TOMS plans to give over 300,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world in 2009.

Our ongoing community events and Shoe Drop Tours allow TOMS supporters and enthusiasts to be part of our One for One movement. Join us.

Why shoes?

Most children in developing countries grow up barefoot. Whether at play, doing chores or just getting around, these children are at risk.

Walking is often the primary mode of transportation in developing countries. Children can walk for miles to get food, water, shelter and medical help. Wearing shoes literally enables them to walk distances that aren’t possible barefoot.

Wearing shoes prevents feet from getting cuts and sores on unsafe roads and from contaminated soil. Not only are these injuries painful, they also are dangerous when wounds become infected. The leading cause of disease in developing countries is soil-transmitted parasites which penetrate the skin through open sores. Wearing shoes can prevent this and the risk of amputation.

Many times children can’t attend school barefoot because shoes are a required part of their uniform. If they don’t have shoes, they don’t go to school. If they don’t receive an education, they don’t have the opportunity to realize their potential.

There is one simple solution…SHOES.

Of the planet’s six billion people, four billion live in conditions inconceivable to many. Lets take a step towards a better tomorrow.

White ceramic swiss watch

From the maker of this beautiful, eye-catching watch:

White ceramic watches are the hottest designer item going today. But when I saw that genuine Swiss Movement ceramics were topping $5,000.00, I decided that drastic measures had to be taken. I knew we could do better. So I called our designers in Switzerland and offered up a challenge. I told them to take a good long look at designer ceramic watches on the market. I told them I wanted the kind of timepiece that goes for a short walk down the runway on a supermodel’s wrist and then gets quickly escorted by armed guards safely back to the vault. And then I told them to deliver a Stauer timepiece that packed the same kind of “wow”… at a price with much less “ow.”

Like its exponentially more expensive cousins, our Stauer Ladies Swiss Movement Ceramic Watch is lightweight, durable and incredibly scratch-resistant. The luxurious face features easy-to-read blue and white hands, with a date window between the 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock positions. The bezel’s polished stainless steel ring catches brilliant flashes of light and a sapphire crown adds the final elegant accent. Crafted with a legendary genuine Swiss Movement and water resistant to 3 ATMs, it’s as functional as it is fashionable. Needless to say, I sent the designers a case of Veuve Cliquot champagne with a note reading, “Mission Accomplished.”
