It also features smooth suede materials that panel across the upper stretching over the eye stays and the 1 Cent logo is seen accenting the tongue tabs and padded heel section. Other details include the striped pull tabs that are on the tongue and the double-stacked heels. Rounding out the sneakers are the slightly clear outsoles with black carbon fiber plates.
