tsonga, more than a great shoe – a great cause :: review

Tsonga_For some girls, it’s the smell of chocolate, good coffee, expensive perfume… For me, I love the smell of rich, buttery soft leather. I am kind of a leather snob when it comes to purses and shoes. So, you can imagine my delight when I opened of the shoe box and got a wiff. Mmmmm. That box contained beautiful, HAND-STICHED driving mocs from South Africa by Tsonga! gazingadenimmoccYou just don’t get truly handcrafted goods anymore! I have the Gazingas in a bold blue (called Denim on their site – They are also available in other colors). The rubber soles are flexible making them super comfortable (the first time I wore these out it was for a shopping marathon and my feet felt great!). Every time I step out and about with these beauties, it never fails that I get compliments on them. And if you don’t swoon at the smell of good leather, then do you believe in love at first step? Because you will now! Bonus – the insides are lined in light pink leather! Nothing says luxurious girly shoes like light pink leather! Light. Pink. Leather.

TsongaThese are more than great shoes – they are a great cause! The second I learned about Tsonga, I loved what they were about. And they have more than Gazingas. (If you haven’t read that word aloud yet, please take a second to do so. Isn’t it fun to say?!?) They have other leather accessories, darling stuffed animals, gorgeous bags…they have something for everyone! Extra points for you if that person is socially conscience and likes helping others!

Hand-stitched. Handmade. Handcrafted.

Watch this Tsonga – A Thread of Hope Video to learn more about them or click here to read their story. It’s pretty amazing what they have going on!

    I have to say these look so comfortable. It is nice to see a company who cares as well!

    These shoes are so cute and I love to shop sites like this that help others. It is nice to know the things you buy are helping people that are trying to make it.
