White Jack Purcells - Purchased this pair off zappos and quite surprised about their shipping. Unbelievably fast shipping and service. Shoes are great and comfortable, but a tad heavy. Maybe its just me, I'm also used to wearing pro-keds as well. Love my jack purcells, a timeless classic.

I love my Purcells for their nostalgia and their style. I wore them when I was a kid and did not know they were still being made. My daughter wears them now as they are the new rage. I wear them all day for errands and such. The leather is easy to keep clean and looks great. They offer no heel height and at 5 foot 1 and 3/4 inches, I need the extra inch offered by my running shoes when I wear my jeans. I might wear them for tennis but I would not wear them for running. At my age, they are no longer a sport shoe just a fun shoe.

Sweet - These jacks are sweet and lack the charismatic crudeness of my first USA made pair. That said, they are pretty sweet, The insole is comfortable and the leather is pretty classy. These puppies are hard to beat. The shipping time was also pretty ridiculous; they came the next buisness day which was unbelievable! If you wear Converse, the new chinese made sizes correspond to the old USA made ones. This is my third order with Zappos and they continue to amaze me.

more support - i have worn these type of jack purcell tennis shoes since i was a kid. with the advent of shoes such as new balance there is definately a comfort gap. don't get me wrong, they are great shoes just could use more support.

Classic in leather - I have always loved the canvas version - was thrilled to find that they are now in leather. Same classic look only better. The insole & arch support is much improved over my last pair of canvas I bought - although I highly reccommend buying "superfeet" inserts, you won't be disappointed with the added arch support these inserts provide, especially in the "flat" Jacks or Chucks.

Love Them - I have the all white leather ones, and I like them very much very comfortable. I have a narrow foot and was worried they would be too wide. They are just fine with socks of course and am happy I bought them I like them so much better for casual wear instead of the clunky sport shoes that most people wear. These are classy looking in comparison.
Brands I'd also recommend: Another pair of these in a different color

Jack Purcell leather superior to its canvas brother - The leather look is great and the comfort much better than the current canvas model. However, it does leave a little to be desired for comfort, i.e. not as cushiony as others. Still, overall look plus good fit confirms right purchase.

Surfers Rule - I am having a great time bringing back the surfer look of the early sixties. White T-shirt under a Pendleton shirt, Levi 501 jeans with turned up cuff and my Jack Purcell’s. The best is the leather comfort of the new Purcell’s. The canvas is the original, but age demands a better fit along with a great look. A little more arch support would be nice. A very in fashion and run around shoe. Great look and great service from Zappos.

White Jack Purcell’s are a must for summer! This shoe is a timeless classic that screams preppy. I buy a pair of these shoes every year or 2 because they are essential. I only purchase them in white leather (canvas is such a pain to keep clean).

Try the leather Purcell - If you are a fan of Jack Purcell court shoes then you really ought to try the leather model. I bought the basic white leather shoe with the navy "smile" and found it to be much more comfortable than the canvas model. I went with 1/2 size smaller than I normally buy athletic shoes and that worked great. I use a padded insole for added comfort. These shoes are great with jeans or khakis and don't have the bulk of modern athletic shoes.

I always order my Jack Purcell's a 1/2 size smaller than marked. They run a little narrow (or maybe I just have wide feet), so that makes the toe box a bit snug but then they hug my feet in a sweet, little comfy way. They take about a week to break in but they're my favorite and have been since high school! I guess they're owned by Nike now, which would explain all the new colors/textures in these and the All-Stars.
Brands I'd also recommend: Converse All-Stars, other Jack Purcell's, Vans, etc.

Love the look but they hurt! I ordered a pair that was my usual size and they were too big, so I exchanged them for a half size smaller. They are not very comfortable, so I am not sure if they are too small or that they do not have enough support and cushion. I still like them.

Jack Purcell, a timeless classic - The Jack Purcell leather low-tops really epitomize what a classic tennis shoe should look like. They're a refreshing change from the SUVs that most people wear on their feet these days. Whenever I wear my white Purcell’s with a pair of jeans, the women always comment on how sharp they look, and that's a good enough recommendation for me.
