***The Official Rick Owens Thread***

[yapopor]

Took my Ramones to a local cobbler for heel protection and ended up doing the whole thing. Just picked them up and thought of y'all.

Looks good but I would have looked for white soles.

How much did he charge?

The Black is hardly noticeable and I wanted them worked on asap so I just used what they had. I had taken in some Wescos of mine to get adjusted a bit, which shouldve been about 10-20$. The total was 100. So my Ramones were around 80 I think. Wasn't sure if that was high or not, but about 5 other cobblers in my area weren't willing to do it.

Has anyone successfully shortened the sleeves on a rick leather?

Does anyone make a rick like leather with normal/slim proportions?

Rick like meaning minimal and big pockets

Despite everyone saying don't do this, I just got back a stooges whose sleeves were shortened maybe 1.5" and frankly it seems way nicer now. The sleeves definitely would not have shortened that much because of creasing through wear, and they're still on the long side, just not to the point of swallowing my fingers; I really think I'll wear it much more often now. It's not as if the long arms are the only design elements that make the jackets interesting.

It was an expensive alteration, though.

How expensive? Been considering doing the same on some of my jackets.

Hey folks, I currently have a size 48 mid neck intarsia in horse, color is raisen (dark brown). Unfortunately it did not fit me so I am sending it back but before I do, does anyone want the jacket for my cost + shipping and any fees. ($410 conus, sorry not negotiable at this point)

jacket has scratches on the back but if it fit I’d keep it for myself unfortunately it fits like a leather shirt.

Anyone have any experience with LGW leather, specifically from 13/14 (but any at all is cool)? Is it like LCW, but matte?

Haven't dealt with LGW but LCW is going to differ between seasons.

They're all fairly grainy but some are thicker than others.

Anyone know roughly what the weight of the thick drkshdw felpa fleece is in oz/sq yard or grams? Tryna use this info as a basis to compare with stuff by other brands

Anyone have a heavier bomber in 52/XL they would like to unload?

 

[happyriverz]

Let me know if anyone is interested in a black FW2010 Showtek shearling (with leather sleeves) in size Small.

 

[spidercan]

Do these Drkshdw Astaires fit right or do I need a different size? Thanks!

Anyone have a heavier bomber in 52/XL they would like to unload?

i have a black 54 canvas flight bomber from FW17 that i haven't worn in ages.

 

[Enexde96]

Thinking about picking up a bomber sometime soon and I was hoping somebody here with insight could help me find the right fabric. I think ideally I'd like it in a weighty, cotton gabardine and would prefer something without too much poly/nylon/silk.

So far I'm looking at a few different models with these codes:
RU16S3791-B (100% cotton?)
RU16F6791-TE (97% cotton / 3% Elastane)
RU16S3797-D (100% wool)

Just curious for those that own or have handled these on what they would recommend, but also open to other suggestions.

Hey there, was wondering if anyone here knew what leather LSGP is. Couldn't find it in any of the compilations of Rick product codes. As you can see it's a textured leather. Label says milk/milk for the colourway but it's clearly a very light grey. Thanks
