The shoe's upper is constructed from white leather as its base, with green suede overlays adding a pop of color and texture. The standout feature is the textured reptilian-mimicking skin layered on top of the green suede, giving the shoe its distinct [snakeskin appearance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snakeskin-colorway-2).
