Luxury fashion house Bottega Veneta introduces its new rubber slide that is designed just in time for the summer season. Its new silhouette gets a signature shade of its iconic Parakeet green palette as well as the additional options of black and sea salt.
The shoes are entirely crafted from rubber and have a design detail that is true to the brand's language, with a repetitive selection of five bars that are collected together. It alternates to create a horizontal and vertical layout look throughout the entire closed toe forefoot. The structured look has a curvaceous feel as the opening to the slide is large and has an ergonomic insole marked with the brand's branding.
