Yes they are Greenguards - 700x28. They roll well for such a heavy tires and I don't have to worry about missing a dental appointment because of a flat tire. They are the first "semi-pneumatic" tire I have ever used. They have great traction for the rainy muck Portland dishes up in the winter. My only complaint is the hard ride; too hard for touring, at least for me.
