Jack Purcell Blue-Tips!
I thought they quit making these! My brothers and I wore these in the early 70's so I had to have a pair, just for the sake of nostalgia. They're every bit as comfortable as I remember and have a cool, classic vibe about them. If you wear Converse All Stars, I recommend going a full size larger on these because they have a little more padding and arch support than Chucks. Love 'em! This is my second pair of shoes from Zappos and their customer service is absolutely the best on the 'net. I will never set foot in a shoe store again. Ever.

These are great -
You get exactly what you expect, and that's what's great about Converse canvas sneaks.

Great intellectual summer shoe - These shoes are great. They go with practically anything in my wardrobe. Be sure to get your regular shoe size, NOT Chuck Taylor sizes. I'm a 10 in Chucks but I'm a size 11(wide). They're a little snug since they're narrow so if you have wide feet, consider getting them a half size larger than your normal size.

Great Shoe - I ordered a size 8, when I typically wear a size 7.5. The 8 is slightly big, but not enough so that I need to send this shoe back for a smaller size. Therefore, I think the 7.5 would have been too small because I like a little breathing room for my toes. It's very comfortable and I like the simplistic, retro style. I bought these for an upcoming stay in Europe, and I'm confident they will stand the test of time while keeping me stylish.

Great shoe....Great service!!!
I love these shoes. Classic and hip. I get many compliments on them and even wear them to work due to the easy dressablility of these shoes! Zappos is by far the best, I am typically an in person buyer of shoes, but the level of service is unmatched! I'm a Zappos buyer for life! I ordered these less than 24 hours before I received them! INSANE!!

Jack be nimble -
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack reminded of when I was quick. I saw these shoes and was nostalgic about my childhood when I'd wear my Jack Purcell's until the sole wore through. I'd run in the rain and creeks and watch water squirt from the metal eyelets on the insides of the shoes. They fit well too.

Awesome comfort even for an old lady!!!
I have foot (actually, FEET) trouble. These shoes are just the most comfortable. There is a nice arch, they are cool and my feet don't perspire in them. I bought three (3) pairs because I didn't know how much longer you might be carrying them. GREAT SHOE!!!

Great shoes!
I love these shoes. I wear a 9 1/2 in every kind of shoe, but with the Jack Purcell I needed a 10. They fit a little small.

Love these!
These shoes are for men and women, so they run a woman's 'C' width, which is what I was hoping for!

Better than Chuck All Stars!
Just received these shoes yesterday morning after ordering them the day before! Zappos customer service and shipping is the best! As far as the shoes go, the women's 8 was a little big, but the women's 7.5 was too snug… so stuck with the 8. Overall they are super cute and will probably get another color in the future (I ordered white this time).

I love these shoes - They're cute and comfortable. True to size and they arrived at my house one day after I ordered them. I will wear them until they fall apart and then order another pair!

Always a favorite.
These Jack Purcell’s are so comfy compared to similar shoes. They are a bit narrow--so if you have wide feet, these probably wouldn't be comfortable. I have a slightly narrow foot and they fit great. I can walk in them all day without feeling fatigued or like my arches are going to give out.

Love 'em!
I love these shoes. They make me want to do heal kicks... They are way more comfortable then the normal Converse. However, I feel like the shoe is a little narrow around the toes. My pinky toes are getting rubbed a little.

Excellent pick -
This is an excellent choice for this genre of shoe. They look great with jeans and are particularly great for us gals over 40 who want to add some stylish "oomph" to the wardrobe without looking age inappropriate. They provide that slight look of rebellion, and a wonderful retro look that we can claim as our own (since we wore 'em back in the day before our kids did!) Contrary to other reports, I found these shoes to be true to size if maybe a tiny, tiny bit long--perfect for comfort. Not enough to size up, though. I tried that and it was a mistake. Removable insole a plus for orthotic wearers.

Jack Purcell -
This is a comfortable, classic sneaker. The canvas version breathes well. But, if looking for a lot of support then this may not be the sneaker for you.

Nice Shoes -
I ordered a pair of Jack Purcell's a size larger than my Chuck Taylors because I read the reviews that Jack Purcell's fit more true to size unlike the Chuck Taylors. I usually wear a size 10, but for the Chucks, I was a 9. Jack's were too big for me in a size 10 so I returned them and got a size 9 and they fit me great! The only thing I wish they had changed is the canvas and the "rubber" part up front are pure white, the sole is a little yellow, you can't tell in sunlight, but indoors it really does show. It's not a big deal, but other than that, the shoes are awesome.
I'd also recommend:
Chuck Taylors for a less preppy look.

Great shoes -
Just got my Jack Purcells. They look great and are very comfortable. A great Converse shoe if you're looking for something a little different. Definitely order 1/2 size larger than you normally would.

Love these shoes -
I love my new Jack Purcells! The only thing that bothers me is that they squeak with my orthotics in. I have an older pair that doesn't do this, so maybe it’s just a matter of breaking them in more.

I LOVE this shoe. I ordered the same size I take in my Chuck Taylor and it fit perfectly. I think these look a little more grown-up and have a retro flair!

Classic favorite -
My shoe size varies from 9.5 to 10.5 depending on sizing of shoe. Last year I bought a ten, which was ok with thin socks, little tight in the toes. This year I bought a 10.5. Was afraid they might be too big, but they're much more comfortable.

Better than all stars -
I have Cons all stars and these. Jacks have much better fit (a liner with some arch support). Cons All Stars always feel like you have something in your sock. Purcells are much more comfortable, while maintaining that vintage look.

Stay with this one, Cons suck.

The Lexus of Converse -
These shoes fit well, feel well and look awesome. I have owned Chuck Taylors for a good 15 years and these are the prettiest ones I have ever worn. Not a kick-around shoe, but a nice styling one!
