Hot on the heels of its Mad Archive Sneakers, Jun Takahashi and UNDERCOVER present the latest addition to their “Chaos/Balance” drops. Following the likes of last year’s checkerboard and solid white releases, the latest drop sees the Japanese stalwart taking on the Jack Purcell, updating the classic tennis silhouette with a premium leather upper, gum rubber outsole and “Chaos/Balance” branding across the design’s signature toe “smile.”

Fans can find the kicks in black now via HAVEN while both the black pair and a grey version can be picked up via HBX.
