I was looking at the Cabourn collaborations, but found these in Olive suede for pocket money, and decided they'd work well enough with his stuff when I don't fancy boots:

Does anybody know what style these are? I've searched the internet and can't find them and would really like to get ahold of them. I believe they're from the 1990's or 2000's.

Quick question on sizing. I'm looking to purchase a pair of Jack Purcell Mids. How do they compare to Converse chucks? I wear size a 6 - 6.5 in Converse Chucks and 7- 7.5 in Nikes. Will a size 7 fit?

Generally 0.5 size up from Chucks. If your feet are closer to 6.5 in Chucks than JP 7 should fit fine.

Some of the nicest Converse I've seen.

They are on the raised 1970 chuck taylor last. For all intents and purposes, they are the ultimate minimalist converse.












I'm not a huge fan of the brown laces but that can easily be remedied.
