The first is “Sage of The Six Paths” which is influenced by its namesake and his power. After that, it’s the “Nine Tails,” a power that was unstoppable until Naruto conquered it. The shoes come in a black and red tone which resembles the chakra.

The last one is the “Kyuubi” which is a combo of the two. These three color schemes all pay tribute to Zion’s relationship with the anime and his likes of Naruto.
