For spring and summer 2011, Bottega Veneta brings to us a pair of rad shoes, the Nero Calf Canvas Ankle Boot.
In a hybrid design, this leather ankle boot combines both a nautical and winter boot style, resulting in a casual and posh look all together. The bottom section of the shoe is very similar to a preppy boat shoe. The Bottega Veneta Nero Calf Canvas Ankle Boot is definitely for those who want to keep intact the summer boating days in a stylish winter boot.
