Bottega Veneta Quilt Leather Trainer Roller Skates

A footwear style that I did not expect to cover when I started doing these sneaker round-ups, Bottega Veneta has released a pair of roller skates. Referencing the popularity of roller skating in the 70s and 80s, these retro-infused sneakers are handcrafted in Italy using a smooth cream leather on the upper. Possibly the most luxurious roller skates in existence, they are tagged at a cool £1,565.
