It is made up of the signature [OG Style 36 LX](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36-souvenir) sneaker model as the base foundation. There is also a color palette that highlights black, Marshmallow, and green. However, the most notable design update is seen in the overlays, which are accented with velcro. This allows wearers to add a touch of customization, complete with velcro-backed bone stripes that can be applied to the upper. The black colorway is complete with off-white midsole pieces and has dark base layers to highlight the textures. The new Magic Tape pack is set to launch officially online at Blends on May 28th.
