***The Official Rick Owens Thread***

Still trying to find any info if anyone knows why/whether/how some geobasket sneakers have a more structured toebox than others.

Aw, I imagine most people go tts so I'm a 44. Really tempted to just pick it up I have a schott 626 but the ro really feels like something I would wear and be a part of me but I'm a stickler about wanting heavy calfskin or cowhide in a jacket so this one just seems perfect to me

I have a stooges that is tts, and the fit is really tight. In fact, its so tight that i Would reccomend sizing one up. However, all men are different and i strongly suggest trying before buying. As it stands, i seldom wear my ro (just took it lot since i found the threads on here) due to my percieved notion (and fear) of it being too small.

Mine (calf) is rather thick compared to my other calf, which makes it feel rather rugged.

How often is the high or mid collar Intarsia released in some sort of black leather? It doesn't look like one was released for SS14 or will be released for AW14?

that jacket is made from mink so thats why the price is so high. remember the other year RO had alligator jackets $53925.

That gator jacket, the olive one, went down to $15k, size 48, my friend bought it, i think it's a reasonable price since the lining is also kangaroo leather

let me know when he tries to re-sell it, i may be able to fit a 48. still 15k is steep...

If someone can drop $15k on a jacket I doubt he'd care about reselling.
