Equal parts refined and rebellious, the Converse Jack Purcell sneaker is inspired by the man behind the iconic smile. In 1935, world-famous badminton champion and tennis pro Jack Purcell helped design his innovative and durable performance court shoe with the iconic smile on the toecap.
The Jack Purcell Johnny sneaker, named after the man himself, offers a traditional take on the classic Purcell style. Debuting in the 1930s as one of the original Jack Purcell silhouettes, the Johnny sneaker features exposed shank detailing on the outsole of the shoe.
Pushing the classic-yet-mischievous lines that define Jack Purcell, the new Converse First String Standards Jack Purcell Johnny Hi sneaker features a resin treated canvas with suede overlays. The resin treated canvas has a rigid denim fell that is contrasted by the soft suede overlays of the Johnny. Pinstripe detailing on the rubber midsole offers a finishing touch alongside the signature Jack Purcell smile.
