Converse Malaysia threw a Jack Purcell Pop Up Store which took over The Off-Day Bangsar located at Jalan Telawi 3 for on a fine Thursday night. This event was to showcase the newest range of The Converse Jack Purcell “Cross-Stitch”.

Whilst everyone has heard of Converse, Jack Purcell has been around creating sneakers since 1935. The classic sneaker with its iconic “smile” toecap perfected the brand as a household favourite stylish sneaker. Converse Jack Purcell has been moving the brand into the vintage-classy direction and re-outfitted in sophisticated soft tumbled leather. 

This pop-up store serves as a visual curation of Irman Hilmi’s Offday retail experimentation; where it specialises in capturing the old-school appeal in premium menswear with a little bit of punk rock influence that work hand-in-hand with Converse Jack Purcell’s old school appeal with the ala-Americana direction.

Members of the media and bloggers were treated to a DIY vintage charm bracelet session in line with the theme of the night.

The Fall 2014 Converse Jack Purcell sneaker collection introduces the all-new Converse Jack Purcell Cross Stitch - a waxed cotton cross-stitch detail - outfitted in leather, a core texture for seasonal dressing. The premium and quality leather materials and subtle stitching details in the sneaker collection are refined and built with all around comfort.

From the price tags, the price range was between RM189.90-RM200.00++ so I would say its pretty affordable for hipster looking good quality shoes! ;)

Anyway if you were eyeing my #OOTN, here it is --

My green top is from MGP Label, Singapore's up and coming label! Customer service was nothing short of excellent, I received my parcel the very next day after confirmation -- that coming from a blogshop all the way from Singapore! THUMBS UP!

Also not forgetting, my green top just so happened to match my cool ride from UberX!
