We’re already big TOMS fans; their offbeat espadrille-inspired shoes are the perfect combination of looking good and doing good, since a child in need is given a pair of shoes for every one you buy.
But it gets better: TOMS is now getting in the sunglasses business.
The new line of TOMS eyewear
include chic retro sunglasses that are equal parts old school and
of-the-moment. No matter what your look, there’s a pair that will work
for you.
These are investment sunglasses, and while we think they’re worth the
investment just for the hip factor, you’re really buying more than just a
pair of shades. You’re helping someone else to see. Through the One to
One program, each pair of TOMS glasses sold equals sight for one person, through either medical treatment, prescription glasses, or surgery.
90% of the 284 million people in the world with vision impairments live
in poverty; having their sight back is a simple way to help them break
the cycle and make their way economically in the world. When you take
that into account, these shades are a bargain at any price. -Susan
TOMS sunglasses come in two unisex styles (a Wayfairer and an aviator) and
in a women’s Jackie O-inspired round frame. All styles are available in a
nice range of classic colors. You can see the entire collection — and read all about the One for One program — at TOMS.com.
