The durable silhouette is made using lightweight materials with mesh details across the upper and it is detailed with a color gradient that resembles sunrise and sunset.

The rest of the shoe includes the strong TPU application that creates a zig-zag feature throughout the shoe to ensure that it is waterproof.
