The complete shoe was covered in a Saturn Gold / Tea Tree Mist / Tent color scheme. Saturn Gold nubuck is applied to the overlays, tongue, and foundation of the upper, which is composed of wheat mesh. The medial Swoosh has the same beading as the lateral Swoosh but is facing the traditional direction.
Both have the instantly recognizable reverse Swoosh. The AM1 also has a nylon design, which can be seen on the lace eyestay and heel, where it is coiled and a co-branded banner is sewn. The heel Air Max unit is painted over, with a new Cactus Jack logo sewn onto the tongue flap.
The midsole also has a tonal appearance. Last but not least, the black outer sole unit has "CACT.US CORPORATION" printed across it.
