Langster Seattle Handlebars

What is the name or style of these handlebars called? They are flattish with a slight backwards curve. I might want to try and find a black set.

They're generally called 'city bars'. Soma makes one that's the only one I can think of that would come in black; otherwise velo-orange has a bunch of different styles. Actually those look closest to the nitto / jitensha bars - https://www.jitensha.com/eng/flatbar05.html

I don't know if these have a similar bend to them:

You can pick them up there or order them at you lbs.

I think on-one makes a similar bar. But I must question your choice for black, I think It would look really odd with the otherwise white and green color scheme.
