Do You Like TOMS?

你喜欢TOMS鞋吗?

相信你们一定见过它：它是船鞋和拖鞋的完美结合。它们看起来十分舒适，但是我们还是不禁要质疑穿着它逛街是否舒适。一位朋友告诉我们，TOMS鞋就像穿在脚上的睡衣一样舒服。

They’re called TOMS, a brand for women, men and kids that was launched in 2006 and has gained in popularity this year. But the question is, do we like them?

TOMS promises: For every pair sold, TOMS gives a pair of shoes to a child in need.
