TOMS Shoes Upgraded for Neiman Marcus

You may have heard of TOMS Shoes' good work: they've been supplying one pair of shoes to children in need for every pair that's purchased. Now, they've upgraded their style (and the price) for the posher socially-minded shoe shopper at Neiman Marcus.

The capsule collection comes in a number of styles for men and women, including the four attractive and comfortable incarnations above, for $78 - $85. We especially like the creative linings and the warm, calming beige shade. If you were thinking of getting your father slippers for Father's Day, definitely go with these (and help a kid!).

These shoes can easily be worn as house/garage slippers, or you can pair them with jeans for casual affairs. Either way, that classy TOMS label tells the world you care.

The latest charity effort by a celebrity puts together Charlize Theron and Toms Shoes in a project to aid her home country of South Africa. Her version of the classic slip-on cloth Toms shoe features an African baobab tree and a custom lining with the Africa Outreach Project logo. The vegan-friendly shoes sell for $54 and will benefit the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project, which seeks to improve the lives of teenagers in South Africa. Also 10,000 pairs of the shoes will be given to impoverished children living in remote communities in South Africa. The shoes have proved popular, they are already backordered.
