Jack Purcell - The Sneaker of James Dean


The King of Cool himself James Dean has always been a style icon. Here's the classic picture of him chillin' like a villain on a sound stage somewhere, kicking up his white canvas Jack Purcell's between takes.

Hard to mistake the shape of the design on the sole of the sneaker (see picture below) and the smiley face on the right toe. Gives us older cats some hope when the coolest fashion dude of the last half century is wearing white sneakers WITH BLACK SOCKS! Oh man, make fun of me now...
