If color is a concern, let it be known they use a cream color on the palms, with white elsewhere. Looks odd to me but I've gotten used to it.

Only major complaint I have is the palms start out slipperier than bat guano. I couldn't even hold a coke can without havin to crush it a little for something to grip. That said, that may be handy in a slide, minimizing friction on the tarmac.
