Ian Ginoza x Converse 1HUND(RED) Jack Purcell “Epi Leather”
“I just wanted to make something hopeful,” Ian says of his 1HUND(RED) Jack Purcell V3 shoe design, which is inspired by a single white blood cell. “It’s about a clean slate – something completely pure.” Ian’s 1HUND(RED) shoe isn’t his first positive vision.

The shoe goes on sale tomorrow Saturday August 29th and will be available at the following retailers:
