TOMS Women's Classics

Comment

I seriously love TOMS. I got this exact pair (color and size) several years ago from the TOMS website and wore them out so much, I thought it was finally time for a new pair (see picture). Unfortunately, at this point in my life, $50 plus shipping for a pair of shoes is just not in the budget, no matter how much I love them and how much use I will get out of them. I really do like the TOMS company, and would love to support them, but cannot afford it. Here I go to Amazon to find one for PRIME and only $35!! Seriously the most comfortable pair of shoes I own; I wear them all summer long. As you can see from the photo, I get A LOT of use out of them, and theyve held up wonderfully through the abuse Ive put them through (several vacations, water rides, college campus walking, a puppy chewing them, working outside in the garden, and many many many steps). Will definitely recommend TOMS to anyone!!

Do not buy Toms from Amazon!! I returned these because I am convinced they were fake!. I have owned Toms for years and this was my first time buying through Amazon- I knew right away something was wrong when I tried on this pair. I ordered my usual size 10, but they were a smaller fit than what I’m used to with a size 10. I also noticed the bottom of the shoe felt softer/fuzzy/more slippery than normal, and the shoe did not conform nicely to my foot...the material felt cheap. Well, by the end of the day my feet were killing me!! Never had so much discomfort from these shoes before. One of the main reasons I buy Toms is because of the comfort, but these online ones must be dummies. Since I wasn’t able to find a pair of Toms locally in my size and color of choice, I opted for a pair of Bobs because I was so frustrated at this point with the whole shoe situation- best decision I made!! Bob’s all the way for this girl now! If you’re set on buying Toms, I would really avoid Amazon and just stick with local stores or buy it through the Tom’s website.

TOMS are always difficult for certain people to wear. I dont have narrow feet but I have a high discomfort tolerance when it comes to my feet in new shoes. I know that with TOMS, it normally takes them a week before my feet feel comfortable in them. Once they stretch out a bit, I can honestly wear these day and night. Theyre not meant for hiking, rainy weather, beaches, etc. so if you use them all the time, they will most certainly wear out quickly. I use them for running errands, shopping, walking around town, etc. and they have lasted me at least a year before needing replacement (and that was with me getting caught in the rain with them several times). Im always a size 6 in TOMS (about half a size smaller than I am in regular shoes), so think about sizing down a half size. Try walking around in them in the house before removing the tags and if they still feel uncomfortable after 3-4 days, Amazon normally offers free returns. They shouldnt be painful but they will feel tight on the sides for a bit but they always do stretch enough if you get them in the right size.

Ive purchased Toms from DSW and bought these on good faith via Amazon. It was winter, I didnt try them until spring, not expecting an issue. I know, I shouldve tried them on, but just didnt think I needed to. They fit funny. All (4) Toms I bought via Amz. fit funny. I thought that was weird, and maybe it was me. So I gave it a few days/tries. Then Googled Toms/Knock-offs. Realized thats what I bought. To be certain, I ordered duplicates from Zappos. Those fit perfectly. They even look like the DSW pairs. Now I see the authentic "tells". Google it. I contacted Amazon, and was denied returns, which I certainly understand because of the long time lag. But I wasnt even offered a replacement at least. So - BUYER BEWARE. I will not buy shoes on Amazon again, on principle. I truly understand the time lag issue, but Ive been a long time customer with very few returns. BE CAREFUL WHEN PURCHASING TOMS ON AMAZON. I will leave this review on all (4) pairs that I bought. THESE ARE FAKE TOMS AND DO NOT FIT. They are short, stiff, and the lettering is different. Grrrrrrrr. By the way, my daughter experienced the same thing but because she wanted to wear them as slippers, she noticed immediately and was able to exchange. There was definitely a difference in the new pair she received. Also, side note - I dont know which box/from which vender - but one had dried mouse poo. I just shook it out, thinking that "things happen". So you see, Im not in the habit of complaining about Amazon purchases. Im just furious I spent this money on fake goods. But I guess this is part of the consequence of not shopping locally...? I gave Amz. ample opportunity to make this right before writing this review.

I wore these on an eight day trip to Mexico City. I had worn them only once prior to the trip to make sure they wouldnt give me blister. The fit was just right. It was the dry season, so the shoes never got wet or rained upon. It was winter, so the weather never really got above 75 degrees. So no excessive sweating per se, no moisture from the environment. Yet these shoes managed to smell so horrible at the end of the trip that I considered leaving them in the trash at my AirBnB. These are my first pair of Toms and they were passable other than the stench. I know sweat is human and please believe me when I say I am not a squeamish person - I use natural deodorant for gosh sakes, I feel that smelling to a certain extent is acceptable. This was... beyond that extent. I packed them in my carryon to save my seatmates on the plane. So I guess consider that before purchase?
