Exposed bottoms for footwear
A distinctive element in luxury footwear, the exposed bottom is much more than a simple support.
Our solutions, made in selected materials such as wood and methacrylate, offer height and comfort, creating a stable and well-proportioned base.
Designed to last, our exposed bottoms combine design, strength and formal precision. Available in numerous finishes and processes, they fit perfectly with the identity of each collection, adding value to every project.
Cork exposed bottoms
Cork exposed bottoms are appreciated for their lightness and the natural look of the material. They can be made in natural cork or agglomerated cork, depending on the desired aesthetic effect and the structural needs of the project. This solution is ideal when the bottom directly contributes to the visual identity of the shoe.
Wooden exposed bottoms
Wood gives solidity and character to the exposed bottom. Buiatti makes wooden exposed bottoms by working on geometries and surfaces, enhancing the texture of the material and the precision of the shapes. It is a suitable choice for footwear that requires a strong aesthetic presence and a reliable structure.
Microporous exposed bottoms
Microporous rubber makes it possible to create light and versatile exposed bottoms, while maintaining good resistance and a clean look. Microporous exposed bottoms are suited to projects that require comfort and flexibility, without giving up the option of leaving the material visible as a design element.
Plexiglass / PMMA exposed bottoms
For more contemporary or experimental projects, plexiglass or PMMA exposed bottoms make it possible to achieve distinctive visual effects. They can be made in a transparent or colored version, maintaining technical precision and structural consistency, when the bottom becomes a true aesthetic element of the shoe.
Exposed bottoms molded in technical materials
Buiatti makes molded exposed bottoms using technical materials such as polypropylene (PP), EVA, TR light and TPU/TR. These solutions ensure uniformity, dimensional control and production repeatability, making it possible to develop high-performance exposed bottoms suited to industrial production.
Custom exposed bottoms for footwear
Every exposed bottom can be developed to measure according to the brand’s project. From the choice of material to the definition of surfaces and finishes, Buiatti supports clients in creating custom exposed bottoms, designed to blend harmoniously into the shoe.
