Customer Reviews Converse Jack Purcell® CP Canvas Low Top

Love These Shoes! I’m obsessed with these shoes, they are so adorable cute and I’ve worn them since 5th grade (and I’m in my third year of college now). They have a classic look and are basically the only tennis shoe I will wear, I LOVE THEM... and Zappos is the best. I’ve ordered things repeatedly from them and they have the BEST customer service. Free overnight shipping? Who won’t say no to that!?

You can't go wrong with a classic! Normally I would only wear a pair of All Stars, but I recently decided to give the Jacks a try... great decision! They are just as classic as Chuck Taylors with a slightly different look. When I wear Chucks, I have to go a half size down. These fit true to my size. They offer a bit more cushion as well. It's nice to be able to switch on and off with two true classics!

Love the old school JP's - These are a classic tenny! They are actually made better than the original JP's, with more padding all around the shoe. Very comfy with our without socks. Size wise, they seem to run a little big. I'm usually between a 6.5 or 7, but I ended up having to get a 6, which fits me perfectly! I love em.

Sizing - I wear a size 10 in Chuck Taylors, but size 10 for these are too small. 10 in Chucks are 28.5 cm and 10 in these are 28 cm. You'd think .5 cm wouldn't make much of a difference, but it does. I wore them for a couple of days thinking they would stretch, but they haven't. And the white ones get dirty quick. Anybody want to buy a used pair?

Great Deal!!! These shoes are perfect, and the service that comes with them is better than any shoe store you can visit in person.

Love them.... I bought these for my husband. He has really enjoyed them, fit great - true to size, look great - classic look with the added bonus of being improved for comfort and use. They are nicer than the originals, the metal eyelets and better cushion are the best improvements.

Jack Purcell - Love the shoe, much more comfortable than my old chuck's...felt like they run a half size to a full size big.

Thank you Zappos! Another great transaction with Zappos! As far as I know nobody in my city carries Jack Purcell sneakers. I bought these in a size 9 men’s for my girlfriend as a b-day gift. They fitted perfectly on her size 11 foot. She did say they felt a little snug around the toe area at first but after a couple weeks of wear they loosened up and now fit her great.

Simple & comfy - These sneakers are so simple, but that's what makes them great. I love how bright the white is.

Jack Purcell's still got it!!! My boyfriend has received nothing but compliments. A lot of people didn't know you could still buy them. We told them Zappos.com. Thank you.

Comfy classic! I bought a pair of black Jack Purcells in size 6.5 and they fit almost perfectly. A word of caution, you may get blisters the first time wearing these, but after the first time, they get comfy.

Jack Purcell sneakers - a great shoe! I had Jack Purcell's for many years in the '60s and '70s. This is my first pair in 20 years. I'm glad I spotted them at an ad at Zappos.

I love my shoes!! great classic shoes. if you ever had them growing up, there back and still have that same "ol school feeling"!!

Classic sneakers! These are awesome. They're actually more comfy now than when I bought them in high school and college. Classic look that doesn't go out of style.

These shoes were the perfect replacement to my decrepit old white gym shoes and a good update to my wardrobe as well. Now I have a supported arch and don't look like an 80-year-old woman.

Great casual shoes - I ordered both black and navy and have tried on white before. The white is too pristine for me and don't go well with a pair of white pants I have. I felt the black was too "formal" and I already have Adidas Sambas that are versatile as black sneakers. Why not go for black Chuck Taylors instead? So the blue was great. Much more casual looking than the black and still provide some color to contrast white pants (or white jeans). I love the feel and comfort and the details and craftsmanship are amazing. Very simple, but very stylish. One of few sneakers that can be worn with chinos/jeans/even suits without looking cheesy. The silhouette is narrow, but that's how I like my shoes and the rounded toe with the smile is perfection. I would recommend Puma's Roma shoes, which have a similar shape and simple styling. Order half size or full size smaller (I usually wear 10 or even 10.5 depending on shoe, but 9s in the Jacks fit well for me).

Rockin' shoes - I love Converse. This is my first pair of Jack Purcells after wearing Chuck Taylors for a very long time. I did have to go up half a size, but Jack's have more padding and a thicker insole, which is also removable for orthotics! I love the way they look and feel.

The Classic never dies - White sneaker that has the right look. More refined than Converse All Star (not quite a "bobo"), and not a typical athletic shoe/"trainer", this sneak is a perfect summer shoe. From shorts to jeans to a casual seersucker suit, these sneakers rock!!

Nice update on a classic - These are much more comfortable and fit my feet way better than the Chuck Taylor models. Great weekend shoes! They do run a bit large. I wear a men's 8.5 normally, and the size 8 here fits great.

Great new fit!!!! These are a world of difference compared to the old design. The new insole is thick and comfortable.

Jack Purcell's - I love these tennis shoes!! These are great for the summer for the "no ankle socks" look. I always receive so many compliments when I wear them. There're great with jeans, capris or shorts and are completely comfortable. I recommend buying these tennis in 1/2 larger size than your normal size, if wearing socks or footies.

Love these shoes! These shoes are great for everyday wear and looks awesome with anything. They're more comfortable than the regular chucks by far. As always I got these shipped extremely quick (overnight).

Bought for my husband - I bought the shoes for my husband as a surprise because we were unable to find cloth Keds anywhere. We went to Tucson & he wanted cooler shoes. We really like them.

Jack Purcell - Eternal - I have worn Jack Purcells since I was a teen in the sixties. They have been and will remain my "sneaker" of choice due to their eternally classic look and the comfort that they provide. Thank you Zappos for making it easy for me to welcome back an old friend.

Comfortable and cool - These are actually more comfortable than I thought. They are much more comfortable than the regular converse chucks. They also look much cooler too. Not the best shoe to support the arches in your feet but looks sometimes require some sacrifice I guess.
