White side inserts contrast with the blue overlays, while a black Swoosh occupies the forefoot. The ankle strap carries a white 24 and small Volt Swoosh, linking the upper branding to the visible Air units below. Black and blue tread sections cover the underside around another lime-colored accent near the heel.
Ken Griffey Jr.'s signature model combines synthetic leather with textile across the upper. A hook-and-loop ankle strap adjusts the fit above the laces, assisted by pull tabs at the tongue and heel. Max Air cushioning is present in both the forefoot and rear.
