— June 23, 2013 — Fashion
The Jack Purcell Converse line for Fall 2013 combines the sleek frame of the original Converse low-top shoes with Jack Purcell street-chic designs. Designed to look like a pair of your favorite worn-in sneakers, the Jack Purcell Converse line features low-top sneaker silhouettes, subtle fashionable prints, expertly faded materials and boldly colored hues for the Fall 2013 season.

These Jack Purcell Converse shoes are the ideal all-around sneaker to bike or simply walk around the city in. Each shoe in the collection includes a design made from the combination of high-quality duck canvas, carefully interwoven fabrics and sharp leather detailing.
