TOMS
This for-profit company was founded in 2006 in Playa Del Rey, California. TOMS products were inspired when its founder, Blake Mycoskie, was in Argentina as a competitor on the popular show, The Amazing Race. He was inspired to create a simple slip-on canvas shoe. This simple idea eventually was picked up, and suddenly stores around the world were selling TOMS shoes. Unfortunately, TOMS would become a major fad and would slowly find its shoes and products falling out of many retail stores.
