The uppers are constructed from a TPU-like material, which is further accented with the soft golden hue. The gold is contrasted by black details across the collar, the throat, and the thick heel strap. The shoe also sports a series of accents across the silhouette, featuring the Nike coordinates that is seen on the toe box area informed by print.
