Plaid Heritage Sneakers

Noah x Converse Jack Purcell 1935 reworks the heritage sneaker with construction details drawn from the original 1935 design alongside a custom plaid upper. The Japan-exclusive iteration features four-stitch toe caps, asymmetrical toe guards and vintage-inspired proportions that preserve the model's characteristic low-profile shape. Noah adds an original plaid pattern across the upper, while embroidered cross motifs appear at the heel alongside specially developed heel labels. Two sets of laces, offered in white and red, provide interchangeable finishing options.

The collaboration uses refined materials and restrained branding to distinguish the updated model without altering its established construction. The four-stitch toe cap and asymmetrical guard remain prominent details, while the vintage proportions reinforce the anniversary reference throughout the silhouette. The sneaker is scheduled to release first through select NOAH locations and retailers in Japan on August 21, 2026, followed by a wider Converse release on August 26, 2026.
