Well paired for play: Jack Purcell x Mackintosh

events   Well paired for play: Jack Purcell x Mackintosh   Mackintosh Jack Purcell First String Converse@en

Two legends have come together across the Atlantic to combine over 150 years of British outerwear heritage with 75 years of classic American design.

Merging the best of their style, the Jack Purcell x Mackintosh – a Converse First String collaboration – combines Mackintosh’s unique craftsmanship and signature elegance with the iconic Jack Purcell Johnny sneaker style. This result is this capsule collection – three limited edition sneakers and three very special matching raincoats – and a timeless tribute to looking good while playing on, whatever the weather.

Find them in limited quantities in select Converse First String stores across Europe, including Colette, Wood Wood, Limited Editions, Nitty Gritty, Precinct 5, and Denham. The Mackintosh is available exclusively alongside the shoes at the flagship Mackintosh store at 104 Mount Street in London, and at Dover Street Market, Oi Polloi, End and Hanon in the UK.
