It has a soft shell design language which brings attention to the intricate gatherings. The three colorways include Power Red, Dark Blue, and Silver Metallic. The red and silver palettes are finished with off-white Three Stripe branding on the side. The blue version is finished with a bold metallic hue as the branding accent. The structured leather stripes bring a stark contrast to the silk frills.
