Converse Jack Purcell OTR Leather Mid

Editorial Review:
Product Description: A staple of early Hollywood and boarding school, the Jack Purcell keeps finding new fans. Eternally hip and understated, the classic shoe now pushes that status in a progressive new direction. This low cut Jack Purcell OTR (On The Road) boot is the fusion of athletic and dress. Full grain leather with padded collar brings all day comfort. Rubber heel piece adds functional durability. A rebirth of the 1950s male persona has arrived hop on board.
Great product, fitted like a glove. Didn't have to pay any import fees...I want another pair!

This is a great shoe! Very stylish and durable. It is even an easy shoe to run in, if need be. I first saw it on the "James Bond Lifestyle" website. It was worn by Bond in Casino Royal (2007). Converse has stopped making this shoe, I hope they decide to reissue it!

I just got a pair of these; they come shipped from American Athletics. Arrived quickly, and exactly as expected. A couple of notes though:
-Realize this is much more the marriage of a boot and a shoe than a sneaker. They're a bit warm for the summer (Craig must have been dying in his scenes) and require a bit of breaking in. I have gotten a couple of "nice hiking boot" comments.
-Some people (read some of the reviews on Zappos) find the tongue arrangement uncomfortable. Like many hiking boots, the tongue is not a separate flap (think sneakers) but is instead connected with extra flaps of leather to right underneath the eyelets; in boots this feature is to ensure that water cannot drain directly into the boot. I similarly found this uncomfortable at the start (it tends to bunch up when you put your shoes on) but a combination of manually straightening the leather and simply breaking in the boots has alleviated the problem
-There's no tread- it's simply flat. No big deal; surprisingly good purchase on most surfaces and good to drive in, but I would be a bit worried with these on the snow or sand.
-Extremely hydrophilic. I recommend treating them as soon as you get them.
Those notes aside, I am very pleased with the purchase. Comfortable shoe, looks great, and recommended to others.

Product as expected, BUT having to pay an extra £42 IMPORT CHARGE that was not expected as company never informed us. We had to pay over £30 P&P!!!!! NOT HAPPY.....
