The Problem

In 2025 more than 350,000 women of color have left the workforce which unfortunately means just saying “Shoes is your passion” is not enough.

The role of the designer within the shoe industry is the career path that is highlighted the most which has unfortunately resulted in BIWOC competing against each other for these limited positions.
