The shooes features multiple technological details including full-length Zoom strobel unit, full-length Cushion 3.0 foam, a radial herringbone traction pattern, Flight plate, Eclipse plate, and the Isoplate in the sole unit.

The Air Jordan 38 "Universityr Red" sneakers come clad in a "White/Black-University Red-Metallic Gold" color scheme.

The base of the shoe comes constructed out of red nubuck material, which is overlays with crisp white textiles upon the side profiles. The red nubuck makes up for the toe boxes, tongues, and the lacing system.

Another hue is added into the mix with Black featured upon the sock liners and the tongue tags. The look is finished off with white plain laces, branding, midsoles, and the semi-translucent outsoles.
