The Red Shoe is an extraordinary piece of handmade Italian footwear featuring an iconic emblem of artistry, style and story.
THE STORY
In a chance encounter, Barollo’s Founder and Creative Director, met a remarkable woman, who has dedicated her life to working with women in the automobile industry, tearing down barriers and shattering glass ceilings in traditionally male-dominated professions.
Ms. Patrice Banks formed Girls Auto Clinic to educate women about car care. With her mission firmly in place, Ms. Banks has created a repair shop staffed by female mechanics and catering to women in the greater Philadelphia area. Patrice’s passion and drive are uniquely inspiring and empowering, and these characteristics are the reason Barollo has created an exclusive shoe to celebrate Patrice and the team at Girls Auto Clinic.
A portion from the sale of each shoe will go to Girls Auto Clinic to help them train the next generation of female mechanics while supporting the growth and vision of this remarkable woman and her team.
