    I love these shoes! They are so comfortable and have great support. I bought the reddish corduroy ones this time. I love the colors and fabric designs. My first pair has been washed in the washer I know at least 20 times and still look good. One thing if you haven't tried a pair on. They need to fit a little snug because they give and fit your foot after about half an hour after wearing. Love love love these shoes. They will last kids until they outgrow them.

    Never heard of Tom's Shoes? LOL. Besides being great shoes it is a company that gives a pair when a pair is sold. The ads are on tv and all over the internet. Teens love them, every girl I see has on a pair. The glitter ones are being worn to prom and to weddings. Older adults are finding out how comfortable they are even the men. Now they are being made in children sizes. they are carried only in one store here, a hunting/sporting good store that sells Life is Good/Columbia/Northface etc. line of clothing.

    Remember if the shoes do not have the pleat at the toe they are not Toms.

    Look at the crochet lace ones on the website. They look fantastic with summer dresses and really classes up wearing a pair of capri pants. I'm not much of a shoe person until I started wearing these.

    Thanks for this info BellaBoo. These look like some great shoes. I'm going to have to give them a try.

    Ohhh. I have seen Tom's but haven't bought a pair.
    I have been thinking about getting a pair Vibram FiveFingers. http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/pro...ila-Womens.htm I go barefoot 24/7 almost 365. Matter of fact I go barefoot so much that when I do put shoes (anything but my NIKE sandles) on they hurt my feet no matter what kind they are. I know I'm a hoosier! lol
