Ah, Converse. It’s like they happened upon the perfect sneaker design decades before they were supposed to, and now it’s predictably stuck around for most of the 20th century. Jack Purcells are a timeless favorite these days–even though most people wearing them think Jack Purcell is a small, terrier-like dog–and now the folks at Converse have updated their look. The Garment Dyed Purcells are given a fresh look with some new colors that you’d think would look more at home on a polo shirt than on a shoe. You’d be wrong; they look awesome, and feel awesome on the feet and the wallet. Lightweight cotton upper breathes easy, same Converse rubber outsole for comfort.
