Do You Like TOMS?
你喜歡TOMS鞋嗎?
I’m sure you’ve seen them: They’re a curious hybrid of the boat shoe and slipper. They look quite comfortable, yet I question their suitability for the streets (a friend of mine referred to them as “pajamas for the feet”).
相信你們一定見過它:它是船鞋和拖鞋的完美結合。它們看起來十分舒適,但是我們還是不禁要質疑穿著它逛街是否舒適。一位朋友告訴我們,TOMS鞋就像穿在腳上的睡衣一樣舒服。
They’re called TOMS, a brand for women, men and kids that was launched in 2006 and has gained in popularity this year. But the question is, do we like them?
它們就是TOMS鞋,這個品牌創(chuàng)建于2006年,是專為女士,男士及小孩設計的品牌,這款鞋今年特別流行。但問題是,你們喜歡這款鞋嗎?
TOMS promises: For every pair sold, TOMS gives a pair of shoes to a child in need.
TOMS公司承諾:您每買一雙正品鞋,我們將會送一雙給給需要它的孩子們
