Brings me back, April 17, 2007
These shoes were so popular when and where I was in middle school and high school. I love the feel of the thick sole underneath the lightweight top. This shoe was cool then and now I'm bring them back! Plus I love the story behind Jack Purcell - these are the original "Air Jordans" you might say.

great shoes, not the best on feet, but look so fly, December 7, 2009
These shoes are awesome.... looking. Not so great on the feet. They hurt mine after an hour or two of wear. I bought a Dr. Scholls gel sole to fix the problem though and they are great.
Another huge problem: the rubber Jack Purcell on the back of my right shoe ripped off. not very durable. but the rest of the shoe (made of canvas it looks like is in fine condition).
all that being said, this shoe is still sooo fly. they look especially great with a pair or slim fit dark blue denim jeans.
bottom line: if your looking for one of the best looking sneakers that goes with almost everything, look no further. just be willing to give up comfort.
if your looking for anything else, maybe check out some stan smiths.
these ARE a bit pricey for a somewhat of a poor shoe. if i had to buy again, I'd probably get stan smiths (adidas)

Great looks with zero arch support, October 30, 2009
These shoes are very retro and look great with a pair of dark jeans and a blazer for a sort of slightly dressy casual look. However, the arch support inside the shoe is so flat they're a bit uncomfortable to wear for very long. Definitely a shoe for the flat footed.
