Happy 75th Jack Purcell



This year marks the 75th Anniversary of Jack Purcell joining the Converse family. In 1935, Purcell designed a canvas and rubber badminton sneaker for Converse. These Converse look very similar to the Chuck Taylor All-Stars, but are distinguished by the smile across the toe. Converse is celebrating by introducing updated designs from the archives and new textures. The menswear-inspired leather brogue collection features a fun purple interior, wingtip details, and fun sparkling metallic finishes! Try wearing one of these updated designs on the weekend or even on the court.
