# Breathable Layering Premium Sneakers Bottega Veneta's Climber Sneakers Get Three Colorway Updates By Amy Duong | Published 2021-09-23 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/climber-sneaker References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2021/9/bottega-veneta-climber-sneaker-new-colorways) Luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta introduces three new tonal iterations of the Climber sneaker model for the season. The seasonal colorway kicks off with the versatile option of String, followed by Abyss Cobalt, and finally, Camping is the last colorway to drop. The silhouette made its original experience earlier this year as a part of the seasonal Salon 01 collection for SS21. The shoe retains the lightweight silhouette with a streamlined construction throughout the entire piece. It sits on top of the signature Vibram rubber sole unit for traction and it holds up a knit sock upper that can be removed. It also features an elastic lacing system for functionality above all else. The shoes are now available to shop online.
