I love these shoes because I can wear them in the house and then keep them on to go anywhere.  Some have remarked that Bob's is a rip off of Tom's.  I don't see how that is possible since Tom's itself is a rip off.  The shoe style was first made in Argentina. They have been around since before the founder of Tom's was born.  And Soles4Souls which is non-profit has been around longer than for profit Tom's.  Bob's is a part of Soles4Souls.  Does it really matter which shoes you buy if both are helping people in need?
At least you can get Bob's on sale and cheaper. I don't want to be a Tom's shoe snob because I like to save money and help someone at the same time.
