This past weekend, TOMS teamed up with Laguna Beach retailer Thalia Surf Shop for a killer event. Local musicians The Pawnshop Kings set up stage in the connecting Surf Gallery, and set the mood with their laid back California style. The Thalia team revved up the Coleman camper stove, grilling up juicy hot dogs for [...]

Hi! Blake’s Mom here. I know it may be hard to believe, but I had never painted a pair of TOMS before a couple of weeks ago. I had my white pair of TOMS sitting on a shelf in my closet with a brand new set (still in the package) of paint pens, just waiting [...]

We were pretty excited to see Pam Mycoskie’s (Blake’s mom) limited edition TOMS fly off the shelves and she is sure to be a busy lady in the coming weeks. The idea of custom painted shoes, however, is a TOMS classic that has been with the company since 2006. In the summer after Blake returned [...]

Friday marked the last day the Vagabonds were in the office at TOMS headquarters! Today, we hit the road on our tour of the Southwest and we couldn’t be more stoked. Last week was absolutely nuts – preparing for a three month tour in a van is not an easy thing. We organized and packed [...]

Hey, everybody! Caitlin here reporting for the Northeast team! Blair, Carolyn, Liz and I had a really successful event on Tuesday at Vanguard University for Global Awareness Day. The students were really excited to learn about TOMS and were eager to support the cause. We even had and honorary Vagabond for the day, Marcus. He [...]

Friends of TOMS just received some INCREDIBLE artwork… from the very appreciative students of an Orlando, FL elementary school we brought shoes to this past fall. They also sent along notes telling us how much fun they had decorating their shoes, and reminded us what each of them drew on their white canvas TOMS.

We LOVE [...]
