TOMS and AREA debut limited-edition collaboration

TOMS and AREA debut limited-edition collaboration coupling after-dark glamour with timeless design in New York on November 10, 2026.

TOMS, the brand known for its cult-loved footwear, and AREA, the fashion brand balancing craft with culture, join forces for a limited-edition collaboration. Launching November 10, 2026, the collection brings together TOMS’ laid-back heritage with AREA’s glamorous, downtown aesthetic. Crystal embellishments, statement-making bows and sculptural accents inject a sense of occasion to TOMS’ iconic silhouettes, creating effortless after-dark styles designed for holiday parties, nights out and everything that follows.

The TOMS x AREA collection reimagines TOMS’ Alpargata and ballet silhouettes with AREA’s distinctive embellishment and elevated detailing. “We loved the idea of taking something as effortless and recognizable as a TOMS shoe and giving it the AREA treatment,” said Nicholas Aburn, Creative Director of AREA. “It’s that contrast between ease and extravagance that makes the collection so exciting.”

Highlights include the Classica Alpargata with an embellished slit in white and black, inspired by one of AREA’s most popular denim silhouettes that have been seen on celebrities from Taylor Swift to Beyoncé. The assortment also includes two low-profile ballet flats, the first finished with embellished crystal shoelace bows drawn from AREA distinctive womenswear and a second with allover rhinestone detailing inspired by their Spring/Summer 2027 line. The final silhouette is a sculptural Alpargata that builds off of the voluminous folding seen across AREA collections.

Together, the styles offer a fresh take on occasion footwear, pairing statement-making details with TOMS’ effortless appeal. “The most exciting collaborations push familiar designs into unexpected territory,” said Heather Altomare, SVP, Product at TOMS. “AREA’s bold approach to embellishment and form gave our signature silhouettes an entirely new point of view, bringing together statement-making design and effortless comfort.”

Three styles from the collaboration debuted during AREA’s Spring/Summer 2027 runway show at New York Fashion Week on September 13. The TOMS X AREA collection launches November 10, 2026 in the United States and across Europe. The collection is available to shop on TOMS.com, AREA.nyc and select retailers.
