For the Movember Men (and Women) in your life...

The 'Mo', slang for moustache, and November come together each year for Movember to raise awareness of cancers affecting men.  Help change the face of men’s health, in the exceptionally classy “Movember Classics” by TOMS.
Tom's has teamed up with the Movember Foundation to create some Limited Edition TOMS, available for men and women.

Not bad, basic black slip-ons for all those chores you have to do:

Funds raised benefit the Prostate Cancer Foundation and LIVESTRONG.
