These came out around 2003 and feature a very mellow colorway which was probably overlooked when it first dropped like many GR dunks. These are starting to appreciate with time although I've only seen completely DS pairs command more than retail.
Here's a picture of them on foot:MATERIALS: The entire upper is leather except the panel around the swoosh which is mesh. The midsole is white with matching stitching and a gum outsole. They come with dark red flat laces.
FEATURES: There are no special features and the name comes from the colorway. I've stuffed the tongues and added sb laces to my pair.
STREET VALUE: retail
MY NOTES ON ACTUALLY WEARING THESE: These are very comfortable. The toebox will definitely crease within a wear or two, but as with other all leather shoes, they are easy to clean. The mesh might require some extra attention as it does tend to show stains and dirt but it can be cleaned. These are definitely fall colors though, so even if the mesh yellows it should only add to the vintage look, and these can be pulled off with business casual wear.
