Roma Boots is a Dallas-based social business selling multi-purpose footwear on a one-for-one business model. For every pair of Roma Boots sold in North America, a pair is donated to someone who desperately needs it elsewhere in the world.
Offering a line of adults and children's rubber rain boots as well as flip flops, Roma Boots offers a stylish and altruistic alternative to a regular pair of rain boots while helping to provide safe footwear to a child in need in the tradition of Tom's Shoes.
In providing safe, durable and practical footwear, the company allows its conscious consumer to invest in the prosperity of a child and encourages them to break free from the cycle of poverty.
