I bought these Jack Purcells a few years ago. I didn't know much about them, I just bought them because I loved the design. I remember being shocked that such cool rain sneakers existed at the time. I don't know the details, but it's a double name with the brand Hancock. The sophisticated design is characteristic, and it looks like a rubber coating has been applied over the sneakers, with the rubber part having a zipper. There are two types of laces. They're included for a change of pace. The ones currently on the shoes are stretchy rubber laces I bought at ABC-Mart. I'll include everything. They stretch when you put them on, so they don't loosen easily, saving you the trouble of retightening them. I didn't want to wear down the soles, so I've only worn them about 2-3 times. There is some wear and tear. I've kept them in a shoe box without wearing them. There are orange-like stains on the rubber part. There is no original box. How about them for the coming season? P.S. I've made the shipping costs the seller's responsibility.
