They feature a obsidian colored upper along with beige on the heel tab and toe cap. The upper is constructed from some sort nubuck / durabuck material. They are not the best for basketball, as the low cut design does not provide too much support around the ankle. The low top versions consist of features such as a quick lace system and an outsole which features a solid, modified version of the herringbone pattern, which provides great traction on the hardwood, as well as new flex groove details for added flexibility.
