If you’re a fan of TOMS shoes, then you’ll be excited to learn that the brand has plans to branch out and sell more than just footwear.
Blake Mycoskie, the founder of TOMS shoes, recently delivered the keynote address at SXSW and announced that his company will soon offer more than shoes.
Standing next to a large cardboard box, Mycoskie announced: "The next one-for-one product is inside this mystery box, which will be opened on 7 June. The truth is what’s inside this box is not nearly as important as what is represents. TOMS is no longer a shoe company, it's a one-for-one company.”
For every pair of TOMS shoes sold, a pair of shoes is given to a child in need. Mycoskie got the idea for the company after participating in a shoe drop in 2007 in South Africa.
Readers, do you think that TOMS plans to launch a clothing line? And are you excited about the announcement?
