If you like the regular Converse All-Stars then you will most likely love the Converse Jack Purcell. The Purcell is both lighter and all around more comfortable than the All-Stars. I have several pairs of Jack Purcells and they are all very comfortable and the fit and finish is consistent. The Purcell runs true to size, unlike the All-Stars. The only downside is that the Purcell is not available in as many colors and styles like the All-Star but hopefully that will change soon. Like I mentioned at the start, if you ever tried a pair of All-Stars, which most people I know have, and liked them then definitely get a pair of Purcells and you will like them just the same, if not more.
Brands I'd also recommend: Vans, Converse All-Stars

I am usually a standard 10 and these fit perfect. Nice shoe, surprisingly comfortable, the only thing is the shoe laces are strangely long.

These were my "go-to" shoes in high school, why did I ever stop wearing them?

These were a gift for my son. He has several pairs of Jack Purcell. He rarely wears anything else, more comfortable than Chuck Taylor.

These shoes are amazing. I don't have to worry about damaging them like I do with Chucks. They also come with metal eaglets! I personally like the way they look better than Chucks, too. The front part doesn't pick up as much dirt as Chucks. These shoes are going to last me much longer than 6 months-1 year.
Brands I'd also recommend: Chucks, American Apparel

Great shoes. I've worn All Stars for years and decided to try Jack Purcell's because I like the style. Sizing runs large. I normally wear a 9.5 or 10, 9 fits perfect in these. Also, have great cushioning, much more comfortable than All Stars.

I love these shoes! I had a pair back in high school and getting this new pair reminds me they are as wonderfully classic as I remembered. Perfect pair of sneakers. Versatile with lots of outfits. Plus, as always, Zappos shipping was incredibly fast. I highly recommend!

Great shoe! The shoe was generally true to size but a little narrower than similar shoes from other brands, even a little narrower than the Converse Chucks that I own, but not so narrow that it was uncomfortable or unwearable.
Brands I'd also recommend: vans, asics, puma, adidas

Great shoes but they run quite big. Had to go 2 sizes smaller than what I usually wear.

Let me start off by saying that I have never ever left feedback on any site in my life and I make tons of online purchases. I ordered these in a size 8 from Journeys and they were too small. They wanted 8 bucks to return them and then another 8 bucks to ship me the new pair in an 8.5. That's just crazy so I came here and ordered them around 7p.m. and got the free 4-5 day shipping. They came the next day! I was blown away. Free shipping and they were delivered to my door in less than 18 hours, that's insane! Thank you so much Zappos! You're amazing! I love the shoes too, I had an old pair that I ruined by trying to wash them and put them in the washing machine and drying them in the dryer, not a good idea.
Brands I'd also recommend: Sperry Top Sider and Converse

When I was a kid, we called these "Chucks". But I have flat, thin, skinny feet, and Chucks were not kind to me. However, I still love the look! I took a chance on these, and they were so comfy that they went straight from the box to vacation, walking all over the place. I am no spring chicken, at 55, but they still look great with my knit dresses, skirts, leggings and tunics, etc. Now, nobody has an excuse to pass on these. They are comfy, and can be styled however you like (no cocktail dress, I'm afraid, but pretty much everything else).
Brands I'd also recommend: cole haan, frye, uggs

Actually order these on my uncle's behalf. Every since he's put them on, he's been raving about how much he loves them and how comfortable they are. Even said he plans on ordering another pair of two.

Love the retro look! They're a tiny bit rough on the pinky toe and heel, but since they're canvas I'm hoping they'll soften up with some wear. Right now I'm using some moleskin for protection.

Perfect summer sneakers. Very cute with dresses and can be worn with anything! I wore mine to a wedding and got many compliments. Keep in mind these run very narrow in the front. I normally wear a 8.5 womens in Chuck Taylors but I had to move up to a 9 in Jack Purcells. They do fit true to size but I believe these shoes were designed to be worn without socks hence the narrow design.
