As the new silhouette begins to get its feet under it, in walks this snowy arrangement, wearing a flooded mix of lightened tones through the synthetic upper before shifting into pale blues on the tongue and collar. That remains for the ridged textures on the sidewalls and sole, sporting a opaque/translucent split in the outsole traction.
