The second collaborative capsule from Converse and TakahiroMiyashita TheSoloist. takes inspiration from the storied Jack Purcell, which originally released in 1933 and, despite its collar face bumper, has a bit of a rebellious streak.
The sneakers’s dual character — part sport classic, part cultural classic — is conveyed by Takahiro Miyashita’s employment of a mismatched ‘Stars and Bars’ graphic canvas (a print originally introduced by Converse in 1991) and a vertical utility zipper framed by asymmetrical lacing. It is an appropriately respectful yet defiant approach to transforming the silhouette, fully in keeping with Takahiro’s ingenuity.
