Today, we wrap up an amazing week and a half of reminiscing and reflecting, with a step forward. We asked you here on the blog, on Facebook, and on Twitter to tell us your dreams for this year and the responses were passionate, heartfelt, and genuine (OK, some were super silly too). Here are our [...]

Unfortunately, we don’t all work remotely from Shoe Drop locations (potential 2011 idea, Blake?), but our HQ scenario isn’t too bad.

They produce incredible rap videos, make clever accessories, bake impressive cakes, create beautiful art… all with the simple inspiration of One for One. Here are some of our favorite creative endeavors [...]

I’ll be honest, I resisted Twitter at first too. But with so much going on at TOMS- so many Shoe Drop moments to share, photos to post, insights to reveal- it was clear a Twitter account would be a fun way to connect with thousands of people around the world. Couldn’t have imagined that the [...]
