This month, ROMA Boots celebrates their 11th anniversary marking its most successful year to date in terms of sales, customer service, and most importantly, to “Give Poverty the Boot”.

The founder of ROMA Boots, Samuel Bistrian has stayed true to his passion and the commitment he made 11 years ago, leading a company with a philanthropic mission at the forefront. The company’s business model merges for-profit fashion with a strong 1-for-1 philanthropic give-back mission. The brand gives back to charities daily through its “Product With Purpose” initiative and the ROMA Foundation. Bistrian identifies as a philanthropist first, and a businessman second.

The ROMA Foundation brings children and families hope, love, and lasting change by donating a brand new pair of vegan rain boots, investing in their education, and creating jobs in their communities. Also partnering with Convoy of Hope, the brand donated 40,000 boots in 2020 alone.

What began as a local idea in Dallas to help kids in Romania has turned into a global movement impacting hundreds of thousands of children across 30 countries. The mission for 2021 and beyond is to increase the momentum and keep helping people, especially children.

ROMA Boots is preparing to launch new colors for its best-selling Chelsea Boot line, with plans to ramp up even more philanthropic initiatives as well to celebrate their monumental success.

About ROMA Boots:

After spending years working at Neiman Marcus, Romanian-born Samuel Bistrian wanted to take his passion for quality and customer service a step further by giving back to people in need. Growing up extremely poor, he realized how big the impact of rain boots are in a child’s life in poverty-stricken countries and from that, his business model for ROMA Boots was created and the company’s tagline “Giving Poverty the Boot” was born. After almost a decade, ROMA Boots is fulfilling their commitment by providing aid, creating a culture of empowerment for those living in poverty and educating children to contribute their gifts and talents to society. The company name ROMA means love.
