The Rubber Flash lineup by Bottega Veneta now offers the Italian brand's elevated interpretation of the rubber clog. The fashion house reworked the classic design to follow up on its women's Rubber Flash mules, offering a simple and chunky style for men.
The Rubber Flash clogs for men are designed with a subtle ankle cutout, resembling the women's style. The mules are made from 100% rubber and differ from the women's style with their lack of a platform heel. However, a seamless rubber outsole provides the shoe with a subtle platform lift of 2.8 inches. The unlined clogs are highly versatile. Since they are waterproof shoes, the clogs are suitable for the spring, summer, and fall.
