TIP: I found their classic alpargatas run small. Toms say they stretch with wear but mine didn't budge. So if your new Toms feel too snug when you try them on, I'd return them.

If you're stuck with Toms shoes that are too tight to wear, you could try a shoe stretcher. Stretching made my Toms feel about half a size bigger & more comfy to wear - see my before & after pics and a video demo.
