INTERVIEW: Rubies Rising Footwear & Apparel

What is Rubies Rising and How did it get started?

 Allow me to introduce myself: my name is Victoria, and I am an engineer from Fayetteville, NC. The Queen City has been my home for three years now, and I'm convinced we are a perfect pair--dynamic, ambitious, energetic, and eager to make our mark.

Beyond footwear, Rubies Rising is a movement. We are dedicated to encouraging, empowering, and enabling women to live victoriously. Why? Because confident, powerful, vision-conscious women make an impact. We invite you to browse our collection and join us as we make a mark that can never be erased!
