Three colors from adjacent parts of the spectrum is a harder thing to pull off than one accent on a white base, and this makeup leans on how close they sit to each other. Purple Agate is a dusty mid purple. Rush Violet is brighter and more saturated. Teal Tint, a pale blue-green, is the outlier that stops the other two from blurring into one another.
LX marks Nike's premium women's material grade rather than a change to the construction, which is where the $120 price comes from. The shape underneath is the low-top the brand has produced continuously since 1982, with a perforated vamp, a padded collar and a rubber cupsole enclosing an Air unit at the heel. Colorways like this are the reason the model has stayed in production for forty years. The pattern never changes; what changes is which three colors get laid across it, and how far Nike is willing to push them.
