The chunky silhouette has undergone many design iterations and this time, it is entirely dressed in denim throughout the upper and midsole. It is seen sitting on top of the chunky sole foundation and the denim used has a classic light blue was. The laces over the forefoot and the outsoles are also detailed with the same paneling accent. The denim material meets a touch of contrast with the application of white, which can be seen in the tongue tab branding and the embroidered logo that is seen along the toe section.
