Rick Owens

[empaulio]

I paid a visit to the gallery showing Rick furniture today. Most of his chairs, I was hoping to see the huge day-bed with the high back but unfortunately that was not present.
He did have some amazing lamps and fur throws.

I hated those black trainers when I first saw them, but the more I looked at them the more I started to like them. So I ended up buying them!

I would love to buy a pair of those wedges for the missus, does anyone know about sizing for the women's shoes? I read that they run 2 sizes big?

 

[Velony]

My wedges I bought recently run pretty true to size. Don't know about other styles though.

I purchased these Rick Owens boots from LVR yesterday and I just got confirmation that they've shipped! I cannot wait for them to arrive! It was love at first sight, they invoked the batgirl in me.

I don't know how to attach the image. Sorry that I had to link.

Nice boots y0shi!

 

[Mona13]

Fabulous, y0shi. I would love to see pictures when they arrive. I had my eye on those in the beginning of these season (also the knee-high pair), but I'm not sure I could pull them off.
BerlinRocks - thanks for the editorial. That leather mini.....

aaah that leather/mink jacket is one of the most gorgeous things ive seen.....there was one on LVR...if Only one digit could be removed from the price tag

 

[Velony]

congrats, y0shi! Please post modelling pics when you get them. I'd love to see them on a person.

Congrats Y0shi!
Has anybody here tried a pair of his mens boots? I'm not talking about his trainers but the low boot with the zips on the side.
I'm just wondering how they would look without having a head to toe RO outfit

 

[Ryan Weld]

I have a pair of the pull-on boots which I have never worn because I hate them and I prefer to wear sneakers. The ones I got have a big bulbous toebox, they almost look like clown shoes. I hate them.
The sidezips look a lot better and have a relatively sleeker profile and I think they can work in a variety of styles/outfits.

Got these yesterday:

These are a lot different to the older style trainers, they're about an inch taller, a bit wider and run half a size big. I have to use an insole, but other than that I'm quite happy with them.

Mona13 & Velony, I'd be glad to post some modeling pics for you! They're due to arrive tomorrow!

Inaya, Ryan_Weld, empaulio..Thank you

 

[empaulio]

Ryan_Weld Those are the 13 hole version right? I have not seen them with the laces in before.
Would it be possible to post a picture of your pull on boots? I think the ones I am thinking of may be the ones without a zip, if that is the shorter version

 

[y0shi]

Guys! So, my boots arrived, now I'm quite short...like around 5'4/5'5 and I'm a size 39.5 when it comes to shoes...I sized up buying the boots and got them in a 40. I tried them on and I guess they'll be okay with socks on but when I raise the shaft up it wobbles and falls down to my knee. I doubt that my legs are too skinny to hold it up, are they meant to fall like that, or is it maybe because I bought it in a larger size? (although logically thinking about it, the size shouldn't really be an issue) I feel like I should scotch tape them in place every time I wear them... I'm not tall enough...lol.

i would send them back. doesnt sound like a match made in heaven to me. the past season otk boots stayed up no problem and i have very skinny legs.

Nooooooooooooo, say it ain't sooooo I can't send them back, I can't...I love them too much.

^Unfortunately yoshi, I would agree with lucky.
The same thing has happened to me before with a pair of thigh-high boots that I bought unseen and the boots just keep slipping down to my knees as I walked....eventually I sold off the pair of boots.
It sounds like the boots are not fitting your legs well...

 

[Ryan Weld]

empaulio yes those trainers are the 13 eyelet ones

Here are my pull-on boots:

Thank you Ryan_Weld I think they were the boots that I had in mind.
I see what you mean about the shape of the toe.
The only issue I have is that the ones with the side zip are higher thats my only put off.
Next time I have the chance I will have to try them on and see how I feel.

Have you tried your new trainers with skinny jeans, If so how did they look?
I seem to think that the majority of Ricks clothing only mainly works with Ricks clothing! (besides some leathers and basics!)
