The overall design of the EA Sports x Nike Trainer 1-3 Max is actually fairly basic. The sneaker's upper features a bronze metallic color that's accented by black laces and tongue, which has the EA Sports logo on it. In case anyone's wondering, the bronze theme was probably chosen to match the game cover featuring Marshall Faulk. The EA Sports x Nike Trainer 1-3 Max sneakers are limited editions.
