The bright colors and translucent bodies finished with a glossy surface is visually appealing and make its way onto the shoe. The upper is made with a clear green design, whereas the heel strap is finished in a banana yellow. The Haribo branding motif is on the outer side, Crocs branding is on the same strap, and the sole unit is designed with a rainbow-style gradient palette. This section transitions from green and fades to yellow and then red. There are also some shades of orange which is on the top and bottom surfaces to round it all out.
