Concept

The concept evolves around the design of a sneaker inspired by football boots, but in a way that fits the brand Bottega Veneta and their latest collection. The idea is to let the shoe feel like it’s sculpted around the foot. The focus of the design was also on the design of the sole. It lets you walk on the famous intrecciato weaving of bottega. The model is made in Rhinoceros 3D. The texture on the sole is created afterwards with a height map to create the embossed sole texture in Keyshot.
