The vamp uses thick fabric material. And the surface has special coating.

The tag shows the introduction for the vamp coating.

The intensity of the color change depends on environmental conditions. After a total of approximately [16 hours] of exposure to UV light, the links will no longer change color. The color changing ability cannot be restored. If you are interested in it, you can have a try.

The effect was evident when ultraviolet lamps were used.

The position of big toe is added with leather material to improve the protection.

There are 5 couples of shoelace holes. It uses rapid lacing system.

The side of vamp has star & arrow logo. The shoe collar is reinforced with leather.

The big upturning shape is special.

The upturning material on both sides of forefoot sole improves the lateral supporting performance, and it also reinforce the fabric vamp.

The thickness of EUR42.5 shoe-pad is about 4.39mm.

It uses environmental protection recovered insole fabric.

Overall:

CONVERSE BB PROTOTYPE CX MID vamp is stitched with leather and fabric. And it uses special coating. The performance is excellent. The forefoot sole uses ZOOM AIR cushion with CX foaming cushion insole. The cushion performance is excellent.

The size of CONVERSE BB PROTOTYPE CX MID is standard. The width of forefoot sole is moderated. The upturning area of both sides is big. So if your foot is wide, it should be unsuitable for you. After fastening the shoelaces, the ankle position is comfortable, but as the shoe collar is a little stiff. We suggest to wear the thick socks. I can feel the resilience from the ZOOM Air cushion of forefoot sole even if just running and jumping . The CX cushion of heelpiece is neither too hard, nor too soft. The outsole is widened, so the overall stability is great.
