Listen closely, because this might get confusing. When you buy a pair, you give a pair, and today at EcoSalon you just might win a pair. Got that?
I’ll start again. We’re giving away a TOMS gift card worth $50 toward the purchase of a pair of TOMS shoes.* Leave a comment to be entered.
TOMS Shoes are comfy, co-ed and some of them are vegan. More importantly, the company’s focus is on giving – One for One, to be exact.
For every pair of shoes you purchase, TOMS will give a pair to a child in need. Since 2006, when Blake Mycoskie was inspired to start the company, TOMS has given away over 140,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world.
It isn’t easy to move this cynical eco-chick, but the TOMS commitment to kids is quite meaningful and masterful. Mycoskie has inspired others to join his mission, which keeps the message growing“¦far beyond the shoe itself.
I can’t help but feel inspired. Don’t you want to be a part of it too?
Leave a comment to enter the giveaway. One entry per person, the contest ends next Wednesday May 20 at midnight. Good luck!
* When using your gift card, please be mindful that not all TOMS shoes are eco-friendly. Look for the vegan styles here and here, including the Wrap Boot (image above).

65% post-consumer plastic bottles? Recycled soles? How very cool!
I’ve had my eyes on TOM shoes for awhile. This is totally rad.
I have been DYING for a pair of Tom Shoes – such a good cause!
Have you seen the Silver Glitter TOMS! How fantastic are these – always love a sparkle!
What a fantastic giveaway – Call me boring but I adore the canvas ones. Tried and true – similar to the boat shoes I love so dearly.
Wowzer – I wonder how comfortable they are? I would imagine they are very durable and clean-up easy – plus, in so many colors, perfect with tons and tons of outfits!!

Have to agree with other posters- I’m infatuated with this idea and just haven’t saved up enough $$ to buy myself a pair yet. Thanks for giving us the opportunity win one!
This is such an awesome giveaway! Those boots are fabulous too!
I have been wanting a pair of TOMs! I think it’s a great cause and will hopefully inspire others to follow his lead.
I wonder how comfortable the boots are – because they look tres chic in a comfortable way! I surely hope I win!!
Happy Thursday everyone!
These are so cool!
❤ TOMSshoes + I totally want to work for the company!! For now I follow on http://twitter.com/TOMSshoes
Super Cool – mens and women’s – perfect for summer.
Love all the choices – literally tons to pick from and super versatile. Thanks for the giveaway!
Great giveaway! I’ve been shopping this summer for vegan shoes at Vegan Chic http://www.veganchic.com. I’m thrilled to see so many great options in vegan footwear out there. It is about time!
Oh man, I’ve been a big fan of TOMs for awhile now. Would absolutely love a free pair!
This is one of the best companies ever!
Seriously a fab fab giveaway – just think – if everyone bought a pair how many children we could help!
Super thanks to you and Tom for the giveaway
Love Tom’s shoes and their commitment to a great cause too. I’ve got my eye on the Vegan Red Clay Woven shoes, they look so comfortable.

Wow, these are incredible, I hope to win!
I’ve been seeing commercials about Toms Shoes. What a wonderful company to give away a pair of shoes for every pair purchased.
These are so cute! I love that they’re vegan and stylish. Not an easy combo. 🙂
I wrote about Toms a few months ago because I love the idea of the shoe drops and of giving back with every sale. Plus, the shoes themselves are really cute! If every company adopted this philosophy, the world would be in much better shape. Would love a free pair to spread the word on my feet! Thanks for doing this.
TOMS has partnered with MonaVie too. Specially designed shoes and every pair that is sold send a pair to Brazil. It’s a cool company. Glad to see eco-friendly choices as well!
Toms shoes can make every eco-chic gal with a heart of gold, feel very Green, Grown and Sexy. My personal faves were the VOTE and Be The Change You Wish To See styles.

I love the wrap boots…
Love the wrap boots!
I am surprised that a generous concept like Tom’s shoes is so successful! It goes to show that a company can create a great product that sells and help those who are in need.
This are eco-chic shoes! and my favorites are the wrap boots!

Awesome! Great idea! What a go getter! 🙂
I love Tom’s Shoes, they are so unique!
I just heard about Tom’s Shoes for the first time the other day — was so impressed with the concept of the company. Great company, cute shoes, perfect combo!

These are so amazing- I wish shoes like this would become more readily available in the public, it’s so hard to shop for shoes online.
TOMS has given away over 140,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world. That is totally AWESOME! What a great way to give back ,Tom.
The wrap shoes are really interesting. I have been looking at their webpage after seeing the commercial (I think it’s for cell phones, but the shoe message is much more memorable) Great company!
What a great testimonial for socially responsible business practices. It only takes one person to start a movement, and Blake Mycoskie is certainly proof of that.
~ You can do well by doing good ~
Kudos not only to Blake and TOMS shoes, but also to all those who support this movement by purchasing shoes from this company and spreading the word about its commitment.
I love TOMS, they have really cute shoes and its such a great cause.

This is so cool. Count me in!
I think this is such a great idea, giving away a pair of shoes for each one purchased. I only wish more companies were willing to be so generous with their products. I have always been a big supporter of TOMS shoes and am so happy EcoSalon is too!
Smart Girlz wear Tom’s!
I think that giving shoes to children is just awesome. There are many needy children out there. I have never owned a TOM shoe and I would like to try it. Thanks.

Practical, smart, generous, comfortable = Toms!
I have wanted to buy a pair of Tom’s shoes for awhile now…especially since they’ve started this amazing new program. However, I recently lost my job — so I have had to really cut back on my spending. I would just LOVE to win this contest!
Thanks so much!
I’ve yet to buy a pair of Tom’s but I love their business model of buy one/give one away. Their shoes look so comfy, and those wrap boots are awesome!
Finally! A place where I can shop for shoes for my daughter! 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!
Great comfy shoes, great cause- didn’t know they made boots too! Very cute.
cool! i’ve been wanted to try out Tom’s for awhile.
A pair of TOMS would be awesome, a lot of my friends already own them.
TOMS are amazing! I love their shoes.

I’ve also been considering TOM shoes for a while (how can I not, running a conscious shopping site?) and this might be a good chance for me to try my first pair! I’m crossing my fingers – good luck, everyone!

I love the idea! I have never bought a pair, but I am so eager to try them! And the idea of giving a pair of shoes per pair bought is amazing!
xoxoo
I’ve been following TOMS for a couple of years now, and I am elated to see that so many people are taking an interest!
Those Wrap Boots are amazing!! I am totally going to get a pair.
I love that shoes can be donated to a good cause.
I’d love to get my feet in a pair of the bright red women’s TOMs!
Good luck with the giveaway. Also, I use AT&T, just like Blake from Tom’s Shoes! Woo hoo!
National television spot featuring TOMS and AT&T? Incredibly heartwarming!
I love eco friendly chicks. So hook this dude up with a pair of TOMS so i can get me some earthy crunchy hippie love
me likey toms shoes!
what a great thing you are doing! Glad we can be a part of it! =)
I’ve seen the commercials and love the concept! One pair of shoes at a time can be a big step,right?
Can’t wait to check out this brand!
you have blessed us once again by promoting Toms shoes. Buy one, Give one, is an incredible opportunity to pay it forward and bless someone else.

my vegan daughter will be celebrating her b’day soon. what a great gift a pair of Tom’s would make. hope its my (and her) lucky day.
Cool shoes..good cause. Will probably buy a pair even if I don’t win….
These shoes are the most compfy shoes ever. I had a pair in the picnic print, but I was watching a friend’s dog and they ate them. I am waiting for a new design I will like so I can get another pair. 🙂
I love TOMS. Been wearing them since they started out. Love the cause even more.
I love those wrap boots… It’s great to see a company being both environmentally and socially aware. ^_^ Happy!
Oooh, I’ve been wanting to try some vegan eco-friendly shoes!
Neato!
I love toms
Sheesh, I would love so much to win the TOMS giftcard. I’ve been wanting a pair of these for a while, just for the sole fact that I’d feel great knowing I’d be putting a pair of shoes on a child who needs shoes. Hopefully this contest is still up and I could potentially win.
Love these shoes! please add me in to the giveaway!
lol this all green stuff started when i bought a book for my grand son a book when santa turned greel teaches kids about going green it was gread and best of all my grand son is only 4 but he undrstands going green better now .. book by victoria perla…i found it at garden ridge store
so niw i wnt to win those shoes!
I have always wanted a pair of vegan toms ever since they came out!
Toms doesn’t have enough vegan shoes made out of recycled plastic bottles and hemp. They used to and I hope they get back to that soon. There is only one mens style made in that fashion.
Well Done! I Like it!
I think that so often we in the states take for granted how privileged we are to not have to worry about things like shoes. It’s just a day to day thing, in fact the truth is I hate shoes. If they weren’t a social norm I would prob. go barefoot. But then again, I don’t remember this either: people in other countries don’t have the privilege of paved roads or green grass to walk on either, or even maybe a real floor in their house. We have all of that here, nothing to worry about. What Tom’s is doing is not only great for those who are less fortunate than us but is also a humbling reminder of how blessed we are as a country and how much I take for granted every day.
what a coincidence! i just planned an outing with my friend for tomorrow because she wants to get a pair!
this is such a lovely idea. we need to give back in ways like this more often.
go toms!
this is wonderful! : )
TOMS shoes are so cool. I’d die for a pair of TOMS. I’ve never had one!!! Can you believe it? So cute! and for such a good cause! They’ve given over 600,000 pairs of shoes since May 2006. Now that’s a lot of shoes. I hope I win. I wish more companies would have something similar to this movement. These shoes aren’t only super cute, but eco -friendly and help less-fortunate children around the world.
Earle Organic Cotton Women’s Vegan were the pair I just bought on sale…I wish I could afford to get a better more neutral pair lol =)
This is such a GREAT cause and a way for everyone to be able to help!! Thant’s the best feeling in the world. It is a blessing for someone to come up with this idea!! God Loves Everyone!!
Hmm this is a smart idea to get ppl to help out the cause, I’m 17 nd I’ve never had TOMS because my dad doesn’t like them and he’s the one to buy me my shoes .__. but I’d like to try them out nd see how they are 🙂
I ❤ Toms : )
I ❤ Toms Shoes!!! 🙂
I just love vegan TOMS all my friends have at least 2 pair ,but i don’t have 1 pair the way money is tight we can’t afford them.
Thanks so much for the giveaway! These shoes look so comfy!
I think it’s awesome the founder is using his company to do good things across the world. I definitely need a purchase a pair in the near future.
I would love to enter! what an awesome opportunity
I would like to enter to get some wonderful TOMS all my friends have them and i am sooo jealous!
I adore TOMS and what that company has accomplished!
I am planning to get a pair of TOMS to wear while I volunteer teaching English in Ecuador this fall! I have never had a pair and I love the company’s beautiful mission! (:u00a0
Unique and nice designs…When I will wear TOMS shoes they will say out aloud to others..THINK OF MY SHOES..haha…very cool!
I love TOMS!!!! They are soooo comfortable and stylish!!!!!!! I especially love the reason why I buy them. Because everytime I buy one pair I know that a child who gets blisters everyday can finally be free from shoelessness!!!!! :DDDDD
