It is accompanied by tonal laces that wrap itself around the forefoot and the tongue. The brand's signature patch logo reading ALL STAR is seen at the medial side of the shoe that stands out against the dark uppers. The rest of the shoe includes black top stitching and dual vent holes to welcome breathability. The midsoles have a protective tape and the toe cap boasts a black rubber makeup.
