Create your own Sergio Rossi personalized shoes.

With over 60 years of history Sergio Rossi is a symbol of Italian excellence, internationally recognized as a point of reference both for the fashion sector and for the end customer. The inspiring principle of the brand is the belief that quality, care and talent must always be central to the creative process.

Over 120 expert artisans create Sergio Rossi shoes by hand with Italian mastery permeating the entire process, from the vision and the initial sketches to the final product. The San Mauro site is able to develop, industrialize and produce all types of luxury women's footwear, from flats to high heels.

To discover the essence of the brand, Sergio Rossi invites you to personally create your own pair of shoes under the guidance of the craftsmen inside the "Magic Kingdom". When you take part in the Making Of process you will be able to touch all the components and discover the techniques that go into a pair of Sergio Rossi shoes, a meticulous job that requires excellent manual skills and know-how from the cutting of the leather and the assembly of the upper right up to the binding of the upper with sole and heel and the finishing.

You will also have the chance to visit the Sergio Rossi factory. For your own shoes you can choose between two must-have styles: the SR1 Sleeper or the Cindy.

This experience will take place on a date to be mutually agreed between Sergio Rossi SPA and the auction winner.

The Cause

The Cooperative IL VOLO Onlus, with its headquarters in Monticello, was founded in 2000 thanks to a group of volunteers and mental health specialists, to help youth with psychiatric problems associated with personality disorders—specifically Borderline Personality Disorder—by designing and realizing structures and services for the cure as well as social and work re-insertment.

Personality disorders are conditions of grave psychiatric suffering characterized by an instability of emotions and interpersonal relationships. They are different from other mental issues in that personality disorders don’t deteriorate mental or cognitive functions, and if properly treated at a psychotherapeutic and rehabilitative level they can allow the patient who is suffering to live a life that is balanced socially and workwise.

After chasing this goal, VOLO has created and runs the Comunità Terapeutico-Riabilitativa “Villa Ratti” in Monticello Brianza (LC), which hosts twenty youths between the ages of 18 and 35.

The path of the patients in Villa Ratti lasts about 12-18 months and is based on a Therapeutic Rehabilitative Project which is done through a series of activities—daily, rehabilitative and psychotherapeutic on a few different leves such as personal, social and work.
