BOB vs TOM!

Most of us are familiar with TOMS. If you're not familiar with them, they are shoes you can order online that are sold for a good cause. For every pair of Toms you order, the company sends another pair of shoes to a poverty-stricken area of the world. The company started in 2006, and they are a growing trend.

These, on the other hand, are BOBS. Bobs are made by Sketchers, and they boast that they "Help the World." They sell for about the same price and they look...well, EXACTLY. LIKE. TOMS. They started selling them just recently.

It amazes me what people do sometimes. It gave me a good laugh at the shoe store, though. And it kind of made my day.

  1. TOMS are much better, coming from an owner.My younger sister wants "BOBS" and it annoys me.

  2. I know! My sister has TOMS, as well as a lot of my friends. Can you just imagine people's faces when they look at your new "BOBS"? In my opinion, they're pretty ridiculous! ; )
