Unable to obtain actual dragon skin for this version of the Converse Jack Purcell Leather Ox, Converse went instead with a croc look to emulate the mythical creature inspiring this new release. Coming in a bit more subtle than than the their last Year of the Dragon drop we got a look at, this low lets the scaly texture do all the talking. With Chinese New Year coming up pretty soon here, be on the lookout for more sneakers coming with the Zodiac tie-in. Follow us after the jump for a few full views of the sneaker, which is already popping up at Asian Converse accounts. As always, stick with Sneaker News for info on whether or not these will find their way to American shores. via FRESHNESS
