[analyse_image type=”featured” src=”https://www.highsnobiety.com/static-assets/dato/1785179710-converse-first-string-jack-purcell-0.jpg”]

Converse’s next First String sneaker is a luxe snack that smiles back. Welcome back, Jack Purcell.

Indeed, like with other models from the line, the Jack Purcells feature top-tier leather uppers. And it also sports Converse’s CX foam, Nike Air, and Vibram rubber underfoot, promising a high-end ride that’s not only durable but super comfy.

Converse has updated some of its signature touches, for the better, of course. But it still has a lot of Jack Purcell-ness, down to the “smile” on the toe cap.

The Jack Purcell never truly went away. We’ve certainly felt the model’s presence in Converse’s fashion collaborations and even its in-line skate models (dress shoes, too). But the First String release looks to be the first proper (and luxe) revival of the Jack Purcell.

The First String Jack Purcell sneaker is scheduled to drop on September 8 on Converse’s website. It will land in white and green colorways.

And there’s more where that came from. In a press release, Converse says that it’ll release “additional styles” later this year.
