FAQs

What is the primary material of the Bottega Veneta Riva Mule?

The upper is made of braided raffia, and the lining is crafted from soft lambskin.

Are these mules suitable for wet weather?

Due to the raffia material, these mules are best suited for dry conditions. Exposure to excessive moisture should be avoided.

How should I clean the braided raffia?

Gently wipe with a dry cloth. Avoid getting the raffia wet. If damp, blot immediately and air dry away from heat.

What is the origin of this product?

The Bottega Veneta Riva Mule is made in Italy, reflecting high-quality craftsmanship.

What type of outsole do these mules have?

They feature a rubber-injected leather outsole for durability and improved grip.

Can I wear these for long periods?

Yes, the lambskin lining and cushioned insole are designed for comfort, making them suitable for extended wear, though a brief break-in period may be beneficial.

What does 'Macadamia' refer to in the color description?

Macadamia is the designer's name for the specific shade of beige, described as an elegant and neutral tone.

Troubleshooting

Raffia appears dull or dirty

Gently brush with a soft-bristled brush. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth, but avoid saturation. Ensure the shoes dry completely away from heat.

Slight discomfort or rubbing

This can occur with new leather linings. Wear the mules for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet. Consider using thin socks or hosiery initially. Professional stretching is an option if discomfort persists.

Sole shows signs of wear

Inspect the rubber and leather sole regularly. Minor wear can be addressed with professional resoling services to maintain the shoe's structure and longevity.
