In recent seasons, the fashion house Bottega Veneta has evolved beyond its famed leather goods and accessories. With more styles added to their lineup each season, the house has also become a footwear powerhouse, continually developing exciting new styles. In their most recent launch, the brand has added a new Orbit sneaker to its series, which may be its thinnest and lightest design yet. Perfectly in line with the current trend of subdued silhouettes, the new Orbit sneaker has been slimmed down to the maximum, creating a barely-there style. Donning a thin sole, the new Orbit sneaker mixes just the right amount of a classic casual sneaker and designer touch to create a one-of-a-kind style you don’t want to miss out on. 

Bottega Veneta introduces the thinnest sneaker in its sneaker collection

Named ‘The Orbit Flash,’ the newest sneaker in Bottega Veneta’s collection gets inspiration from classic Y2K styles and traditional ‘70s era trainers. Featuring supple suede and lightweight nylon, the design seamlessly blends these materials to create a texturized style with depth. Subtle leather trim details on the tongue and eyelets add a sophisticated touch to the look. Taking the spotlight is the shoe’s ultra-thin rubber outsole, which appears non-existent unless highlighted by its contrasting gum colorway that extends up to the heel. Arriving in six distinct color schemes, the new Orbit flash sneaker offers a fresh take on a classic silhouette that continues to grow in popularity. Available now via Bottega Veneta’s webstore, the sneakers retail for $990 each.

Your summer shades are tired, it may be time for an upgrade with KREWE’s expert advice
Accessories, Sunglasses, Face

There are few things better than putting together a great look, checking yourself in the mirror, and then going for that perfect pair of sunglasses to slide on and complete the outfit. Your shades are the completion of a transformation from indoor to outdoor. They are functional in that they protect your eyes from the harmful rays of the sun. And they keep you from getting that annoying headache resulting from squinting all day. But they are also an amazing stylistic opportunity. They can become your statement piece; just ask Elton John if they are simply functional. But how do you select the right sunglasses to upgrade your collection? I was recently in the KREWE store down in the Meatpacking District and discovered that shopping for shades can be more than just scrolling online; it can be an experience unlike other shopping outings. After my experience in the store, I asked KREWE to spread the knowledge for shopping for new shades.

The best sunglasses are the ones you instinctively reach for day after day. But if your current pair is starting to feel a little too familiar, it may be time for an upgrade. – Kate McCabe, Vice President of Brand Marketing, KREWE
