Three greys deep, if you count black as one. Core Black is the ground colour on the knit upper, Grey Six sits a step lighter and handles the structural areas, and the two together give the sidewall depth without introducing a real second colour. Read from a distance the shoe is simply dark; up close it separates into layers.
Solar Yellow is the exception, used in doses small enough that it works as punctuation rather than as a third colour in the scheme. It is a saturated, near-fluorescent shade, so very little of it goes a long way against a dark base. Below the upper nothing changes: a full-length Boost midsole with inserts moulded into the sidewall, a sock-like collar above it, welded Three Stripes and the segmented rubber outsole. The pair released February 15, 2023 at $160, at the upper end of where the knit version was priced by then.
