Beyond the Jodies and the Pouches, and the Cassettes and the Sardines, Bottega Veneta has an equally-as-impeccable roster of footwear. Since its inception in the 1960s, the Italian maison has applied its artisinal methods to stylish models that are far from your average dress shoe. Think familiar silhouettes, but rendered in interesting textiles or incorporated with kitschy design elements. For your shopping pleasure, we list 10 of our favorites down below.
SHOP: The Best Bottega Veneta Shoes
1. Stretch Pump
One of the most wanted pieces from Bottega Veneta's line-up is the Stretch Pump. The square-toed shoe's exterior is fully done in mesh, making it a breathable yet sleek option for al fresco affairs.

2. Lido Mule
The brand's trademark intrecciato weaving method is a key component of their Lido Mule. Both the body and padded upper layer of the shoe use supple lambskin, which is made available in a variety of hues.

3. Adam Sandal
If you're up for some strappy business, the Adam Sandal is the one for you. The rope-like laces end in gold snake head embellishments, which are in pursuit of the apple resting between the toes.

4. Knot Mule
Another gilded original from Bottega Veneta is the Knot Mule, which is pretty self-explanatory by name. The metallic heel supports a fully leather body, which boasts of the intricately-done intrecciato weaves.

5. Cha Cha Mule
The Cha Cha Mule is reminiscent of the shoes we'd slip onto the feet of our Barbie dolls. The model features a curved block heel and naturally evokes a need to bust a move on the dance floor.

6. Atomic Ballerina Flat
True to their innovative ethos, Bottega Veneta gives the dainty ballerina flat a quirky makeover by lining it with shearling fabric. It's a conversation starter you can put on your feet!

7. Lug Mary Jane
The Mary Jane has graduated from being a schoolyard staple to a cool-girl essential. The luxury label's iteration is delightfully chunky and punctuated with an oversized gold buckle. Class is in session!

8. Canalazzo Ankle Boot
The Canalazzo Ankle Boot is characterized by its smooth curves and soft edges. The relatively modest four-inch heel, plus the delicate calfskin material, makes breaking it in an easier task.

9. Tire Chelsea Boot
Did somebody mention the chunky shoe trend? The brand takes it up a notch with the Tire Chelsea Boot, which has an extra-tall upper shaft and an exaggerated rubber outsole. The one that comes in Bottega Veneta's patented shade of green remains to be the most recognizable version, and it's not hard to see why!

10. Orbit Sneaker
The maison enters the sneaker game with the Orbit, a running shoe crafted out of technical-grade mesh. The model is reminiscent of classic '90s kicks with its rubber upsole and white chunky laces.
