Hit the Road Jack Part 1.

While perusing my local T.J. Maxx, I discovered a relic from my early teens. Jack Purcell Converse sneakers! In my size! I slipped them on my little feet and was immediately transported back to time when I donned the classic wardrobe staple in desperate pursuit of preppy friends and a desire to fit in with the polished crowd of Coronado Middle School. While sitting in that poorly lit outlet store, I made a decision. No longer would this blue-soled sneaker be a symbol of my adolescent social desperation! I'm taking back the Jack! After all, this shoe has been worn by way cooler people then that stupid b**** Cassie O'Brien. James Dean was photographed wearing these sweat kicks! Americana at its finest and the rebellious cousin to that over-worn Chuck Taylor.
