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.
I'd also recommend:
Chuck Taylors, obviously.

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).

Any day shoe -
Very comfortable and even tough it is white you can wash it. Wear it with shorts or jeans it is stylish. Overall good buy.

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.

Adorable -
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!

Fantastic shoe for a girl or guy. Stylish but down to earth. I had to order a half size lower than I normally do (thanks to the other comments) and they fit perfectly. Thanks Zappos!

Forever Cool -
Jack Purcells are the coolest tennis shoes ever made. The new ones actually have a padded insert for better support which is a vast improvement over the originals. Always great for clay tennis courts. Good on boats. Good for just being cool. By the way Jack Purcell was a world champion Canadian Badminton player back in the 1930's, retired as the undefeated World Champion in Badminton in 1945 and was inducted into the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame in 1955 and the Olympic Hall of Fame in 1973(when the Olympics still didn't recognize Badminton as a sport), just in case you were wondering who he was. He designed a rubber and canvas badminton shoe for B.F. Goodrich Company of Canada in 1935. He is one of my Heroes, as you can tell. May Converse continue to make Jack Purcells forever.

I got turned onto these by a friend and absolutely love them. Comfortable and look great! Not a huge fan of the steel tipped laces and the laces ran long, but otherwise no complaints.

Very comfortable shoe!
Probably the most comfortable pair of sneakers I’ve ever owned. Way more comfortable than a Chuck Taylor sneak. I got mine in the color black because I’ve always found black footwear to pair up with just about anything. They go great with my Chino/Cargo pants as well as jeans for a variety of occasions! Be sure to check the sizing before you order as these shoes run big. I had to return the first pair because they were half a size too big than marked.
