Customer Reviews Converse Jack Purcell® CP Canvas Low Top

I had a pair of these when I was 11 and despite the price, I became nostalgic and bought a pair. I paid nine bucks for them thirty six years ago. My JPs are white size 11s, so they look bigger on my feet than they do in the closet. They fit fine, the new arch support makes them more comfy than most low-top, flat-bottomed, old style sneakers. No slipping or uncomfortable rub spots, like at the heel or the upper part of the big toe. No binding or pinching at the tie point for the laces, but be careful how you arrange the tongue of the shoe when you go without socks. The wrinkles can cause pressure points if you fuss with it, no problem. If you want the look without the hassle, wear socklettes. Love the metal tipped laces. All in all a perfect weekend shoe;looked great with a tan linen suit.

I bought these to replace an old pair of White Converse All Stars. I love them! They look great with jeans and without socks are cute with a skirt or dress. Super comfortable too and moderate arch support. They do run a little big - I always wear an 8.5 and ordered the Men's size 7/Woman's size 8.5, but these feel more like a Woman's 9.

I love Born Shoes and this sandals are gorgeous but they run small. I bought them in my usual size, a 10 and they were so narrow. I could hardly get them in and had to return them! Maybe because they are a B/M width and not just an M, but definitely would not recommend for people with slightly wide feet.

I love these shoes. They fit true to size. I wear an 8, bought an 8, and they fit well. I would say though, that they are a bit narrow. Luckily, canvas stretches and I'm sure that after some wear they won't be so tight. Overall, they look great and offer more support and cushion than Converse All Stars in my opinion.

Nice fit, very nice look. Fits true to size. I am somewhere between an 11.5 and a 12, and this is a perfect fit for me. Wore them walking quite a bit, and the arch support is pretty good for this type of shoe.

Bought for my husband to be his standard almost every day kind of kicks. He absolutely loves them! He’s an under-pronator, and these sneakers are not the most supportive (albeit more cushiony than the regular Converse style), but he’s not wearing them all-day every day. Good price, too! Love my Zappos!

These are sharp looking and comfortable. They were purchased for my husband as a present. His shoe size varies between a 9 and 9.5 shoe size and we first got the size 9 but had to exchange them for the 9.5 for a better fit. He loves them and they fit perfectly at the larger 9.5 size.

I love these simple, classic shoes. I finally bought my own pair after borrowing my daughters. They are flat shoes so you may want an insole if you prefer more of an arch support. I find the Jack Purcells to have more support than the Chuck Taylors.

This is an awesome shoe! It looks great! I would definitely order a 1/2 size smaller than what you would wear in regular style Converse Chucks. Shoe definitely needs to be broken in before walking a long time in them. Other than that it is great!!! This is also a very hard to find shoe! Thankfully Zappos has them! Plus, their customer service is the best out there! Thanks!

Love these shoes! They are super comfy and go with everything. Would buy again and again.

I usually wear Chuck Taylor shoes but thought I'd give these a try, and I'm glad I did. They have a nicely padded foot bed, so they're pretty comfortable. I seem to get a compliment each time I wear them. They might run a little bit larger than Chucks. I bought my normal size but could have gone with a half size smaller, although it wasn't enough of an issue to make me return them. Overall, a classic shoe that's very versatile. Thanks, Zappos, for your excellent service and lightning fast delivery!

I bought these for my husband who has very wide feet and wears Chucks, too. These were instantly comfortable and he gets compliments on them all the time. I had tried the PF Flyers, too, but they weren't quite right. Jack Purcells are a great choice for a basic daily casual shoe!

CONVERSE JACK PURCELL - My daughter is a first mate onboard a Major cruise liner and I am forever sending 2/3 pairs of Jack Purcells. With the type work she does onboard these are a must. Well, mom is on to them as well. I just adore the feel and comfort.
