Toms (stylized as TOMS) is a for-profit[2][3][4] company based in Playa Del Rey, California that designs and sells shoes based on the Argentine alpargata design as well as eyewear.[9] When Toms sells a pair of shoes, a new pair of shoes is given to an impoverished child,[10] and when Toms sells a pair of eyewear, part of the profit is used to save or restore the eyesight for people in developing countries.
