Loafer ShoesClassic alpargata style, canvas upper, elastic gore for easy fit, suede footbed. with every pair of shoes you purchase, toms will give a new pair of shoes to a child in need. one for one TOMS Shoes was founded in 2006 by Blake Mycoskie. The shoe is a unique slip-on design comprised of clean lines and lightweight fabrics in vibrant colors and prints. TOMS was founded when Blake was inspired on a trip to Argentina by the traditional, rope-soled Argentine "alpargata." He was struck by the poverty and health issues of the country, and set out to reinvent the alpargata for the U.S. market, and in doing so to accomplish one goal: Making life more comfortable for those without shoes. To realize this purpose, Blake made a commitment to match every pair of TOMS purchased with a donation of a pair to a child in need. It's simple: If you buy a pair of TOMS, the company will give a pair to someone in need on your behalf. During its first year in business, TOMS sold 10,000 pairs of shoes, and Blake returned to Argentina to lead his first annual Shoe Drop during which he donated to the children who had inspired him. TOMS Shoes are now available in multiple colors and fabric combinations for men, women and a recently introduced line for children, aptly titled Tiny TOMS.

User Reviews
These are the perfect red. They fit perfectly and only took a couple wearings to be comfy, comfy. Love Tom’s Alpargata shoes!
These are the best classic TOMS. They sell some that have a recycled rubber insole, and it is kind of thick and makes the shoes a little too tight. These have the pig suede foot bed made inside of them and are perfect.I normally wear a 12½, but they do not offer half sizes this big so I got a 13, and they are just less than half an inch too long, but fit great. They are a little tight on the ball of my foot, but as I have found with all TOMS the canvas stretches after a couple of days and they are great.
For all the ladies looking to purchase this shoe: please remember it is sized for MEN, it is the MENS model of the classic Alpargata. I repeat: The sizing you see above is for men. So if you order a 7, thinking of the size 7 ladies Tom's you have in your closet, these will be at least 1.5 sizes too big for you.I, myself, am a woman. And I ordered these shoes, sized for men, because I have giant lady feet that can fit average male sizes. I could not find a women's 10 in the red alpargata stocked anywhere reputable on Amazon but lucked out with this item listing. I am a size 10 in women's footwear. Ordered an 8.5 in these Alpargata slip ons. They fit great. Here is a quick guide for conversion sizing:If you wear a size 10 in womens, you're an 8.5 in mens.9.5 in womens, you're an 8 in mens.9 in womens, you're a 7.5 in mens.8.5 in womens, you're a 7 in mens.You get the picture.These are classic, authentic, well made canvas Tom's. They are comfortable, easy to wear, versatile, and can take a good beating. This specific listing has great options for the MENS sized Alpargata, and by extension, options for ladies who have larger-than-average feet.Otherwise, order arrived on time, in genuine Tom's packaging. The were shipped by a third party but are still completely authentic Tom's.A word to the wise: once you've broken these in and wear them regularly, try not to get them soaking wet. As in, do not submerge in water. It can warp the (p)leather sole, and they will stink to high heavens, as if somehow releasing all the dirty feet smell they previously contained & kept at bay. This goes for all canvas lined, leather/pleather soled Toms. That certainly shouldn't be a delabreaker though.
My feet are extra wide (EEE) so I didn't expect these to fit. But they do. Exactly. Barely.Follow the advice and order a size larger if your feet aren't exactly the size on the chart.I love the color and square toe. (Red)Most of my shoes are too long in the heel but these fit just right in the toe and heel area.They just aren't large enough for the middle of my foot so the stretch part has to stretch a little.
Very comfortable casual shoe. True to size and red was a great color choice. If you have flat feet, this does not offer much arch support. If you have an arch, this is a great casual shoe.
I love Toms! I use most of the time to go to work, but its so comfortable that I go out with them sometimes! At first fits a little tight, but after wearing for a day it was perfectly shaped to my feet
I love TOMS, this is probably my 8th pair. This model in particular was too tight across the arch. They’re beautiful and well made, don’t take me wrong, but you may want to order a half size up if you have a high arch like me.
I've always liked Toms but I feel like the quality has gone down on them quite a bit. I felt like what I received weren't real Toms! I've purchased these before years ago. The fit is fine, the shoe is fine! I simply wear them to take out the dogs but I wouldn't wear this in public anymore as the color has faded quite a bit and I don't leave them or wear them in the sun!
