CONVERSE JACK PURCELL APPAREL COLLECTION
The Converse Jack Purcell Wool Trucker Jacket is an intuitive piece that references the iconic jean jacket, and is executed in soft wool suitable for fall layering. The jacket’s cropped length makes it the perfect piece to wear over the Converse Jack Purcell Waterfall Pullover with seismic stripes. Both jacket and pullover are staples that can carry a wardrobe from early fall through winter.
The Converse Jack Purcell Wax Poplin Jacket is a versatile centerpiece for a fall wardrobe. Classic khaki with a clean zip, the jacket can be worn as a single layer over the Converse Jack Purcell Quilted Diamond Pullover or under the Converse Jack Purcell Marble Twill Jacket. The jacket’s waxed texture adds an artful and modern mix, with a silhouette that’s effortless and easy to wear.
The Converse Jack Purcell Coated Chambray Button Down is reversible and lined for warmth, with a wax-coated finish to add dimension and a contemporary look to its casual style. The button-down’s unique fabrication brings a touch of tailored dress to everyday wear. The button-down can be worn over the Converse Jack Purcell Smile Tee for a clean but cozy look.
