A$AP Rocky Looks Effortlessly Cool in Square Toe Bottega Veneta Shoes For the FNAA 2024 Red Carpet
More from Footwear News
A$AP Rocky arrived to the 38th annual Footwear News Achievement Awards in an outfit that proved exactly why he’s known as a style icon and a game-changing fashion designer.
Making an entrance at Cipriani South Street on Dec. 4 for the special occasion, he wore a black leather shearling jacket, black sunglasses, black trousers and a pair of squared toe dress shoes. The rapper confirmed to FN that his look—including the leather jacket, viscose silk trousers from Pre-Spring 25 collection look 43, and his Jim loafers—was all from Bottega Veneta.
When he’s not wearing his Puma collaboration, the rapper tends to opt for boots and dress shoes styles from designers like Saint Laurent and Gucci. His partner Rihanna also attended the event, contrasting his all black look by going with a heavenly all white ensemble and strappy white sandals from Manolo Blahnik.
A$AP Rocky was on hand to receive the Collaboration of the Year award with Puma at the FNAAs. Following his partner Rihanna’s success with Puma, the rapper teamed up with the sporting giant in 2023, when he was named creative director of its F1 line. 2024 brought about multiple exciting sneaker drops born of the partnership, including new interpretations of the Inhale and Mostro styles. With the Mostro, they ventured into the modern world of 3D shoe printing.
It’s difficult to name a couple in entertainment with the same eye-catching flair for fashion as A$AP Rocky and Rihanna. They each have their own distinctive styles but also play off of each other’s preferences, often coordinating their outfits when they step out together.
For 38 years, the annual FN Achievement Awards — often called the “Shoe Oscars” — have celebrated the style stars, best brand stories, ardent philanthropists, emerging talents and industry veterans. The 2024 event is supported by sponsors Listrak, Marc Fisher, Nordstrom and Vibram.
