When would be the best time to cop these and what price is decent?

>>10660366
I reckon they'll go on a pretty decent salr. Saw some recently during black Friday but ima wait until the new year probably

>>10660117

I went a few weeks ago. For a while I was the only person in the store. Super friendly sales staff. Beautiful building. The smoke wall is awesome.

They're happy to let you try anything on. I was trying out leathers and the woman helping me suggested I check out the Memphis jeans, which I liked a lot more than I had expected. She told me that their favorite thing to do is dress people up so even if you aren't planning on buying anything it's a super fun experience.

>>10660626
what else did you try on?

Sock sneakers, Geobaskets, the knitted cashmere pod shorts which were absurdly luxurious and soft. I forgot about the geopatch tunic otherwise I would've asked for one in my size. The winter leathers were nice but I think I wanted something thinner so I didn't try any of those on.

I wanted to try on the bodybag they had but I didn't end up working up the courage to do it. It was beautiful in person, though.

They said that in mid-December they would be getting the SS16 stuff in stock so if you're set on seeing Sphinx you should probably go soon. I don't know how much the stock is going to change when they get the Cyclops stuff in.

Hey /rog/ myhabit has some pretty neat deals for some rick. Especially the one size jerseys (I would have copped if I wasn't a manlet).

It's an extra 20% off today for cyber monday. Use the code CHEERY20

http://www.myhabit.com/#s?keyword=rick%20owens%20men&ref=kw_s_s

I'm not likely to make use of the invitation stuff but here's the link anyway if you want.

You think Rick will ever make the jerseys in actual sizes? I've read they fit like M-L so for me it's pretty retarded even considering it.

Best c/w man, them and black jersey prisoners is my jam

Selling a pair of geo's and bought a tee and a mohair knit during black weekend. Bought a lang bomber kinda recently but might return, bit of an impulse cop but I'll see when I get it.

>>10660612
The pants are throwing this off
Way too skinny and they ruin the silhouette

>>10660626
What were you wearing when you went in? Did you feel like they were judging you on your fit at all?

I'm selling a pair of short tongue geos (pic related) in size 7 if anyone is interested.

https://www.grailed.com/listings/293807-rick-owens-short-tongue-geobaskets

>>10662557
I bought mine retail because of the same reason. Got a good price though

>>10662642
If you don't mind me asking, what do you consider a good price for retail? I've given up hope of finding a pair any other way.

>>10662675
I've had them a while but I think I paid like 350 or 375 usd. But had one of those 10% newsletter signup discounts

>>10662692
Oh alright, that's actually pretty reasonable. I'm on the lookout for a good retail price for them. Or if anything pops up on grailed anytime soon.

>>10662705
The dust ones go really cheap. Picked some fleece ones up last year for like 150

>>10662713
I'll look into that as well then. I'm just deliberating whether or not I need an xs. I've been told small before and I've only owned the Berlin pants. I would assume the fit is a bit different but I'm unsure about that.

Height: 6'
Waist: 29

>>10662719
Definitely XS with a waist of 29. At 6ft you would need to wear them a bit lower around your hips as theyre shorter in the leg (most people wear them around the waist usually)

I'm a 28/29 waist and tried on S and was swamped in them.

>>10662730
I figured as much. I just wanted to get another opinion before I buy them. I'll keep an eye out for an alright price and hope they have my size. Thanks for the help and all. I'm in pretty much every Rick thread but have yet to buy prisoners for whatever reason. Very excited for them.

>tfw Geos are out for delivery today

>>10660734
no way
I got size S and I'm about a 30? and they were too big by a large margin - got em taken in an inch or two

>>10662642
I'm in Canada so the fees get added usually which is like an extra hundred.
While on the topic, anyone know where has prisoners for cheap? : )

>>10662814
I believe I got mine from farfetch

When I eventually wind up in an office job I don't want to wear a trad suit - any thoughts on this?

Major issue is everyone who dresses in formal/semi-formal rick seems to look so out-of-place. Only things I can think of are white button up (pic related), unstructured blazer, astaire trousers + cuban heels, boots under trousers, reverse-leather chukkas.

It'd probably be best to branch out into diciannoveventitre/ccp/drklandsberlincore if I need to comply to a dress code - its just that I never feel the same level of comfort wearing anything but R/O ;[

>>10662920
Why not worry about it when you come to it? It will definitely depend on the environment. My office dress code is business casual so I can get away with wearing some drapey shit every now and then. Usually I just stick to black rm williams/acne jeans/white dress shirt because wearing a uniform is easier, if you feel me

Casual fridays are when it gets real fun :~)

>>10662934
mhmm cheers maybe I'm worrying too much - only office enviroment I'll be in is internships so no point splurging on anything but an M&S suit

What is the sizing of these again?
How do creepers fit compared to Geos?

>>10663078
Depends on season, newer variations are much more TTS i've been led to believe

I have a pair in 41 and im a 42/42.5

>>10663085
And in Geos you are?

>>10663089
I have a pair in 41 which are verging on too tight and a pair in 42 which are verging on too loose

>>10663095
Damn I wish I had an opportunity to try these in my country.

Probably ain't copping till I'm outta here. For how many seasons does Rick release these creepers (and variations of)?

>>10663106
They're called Limo creepers, officially. I'm pretty sure they are a seasonal thing, considering there are some sphinx ones on rickstore at the moment

>>10663077
Moist desu

I've always wondered why people buy stuff then pretty much immediately put it on grailed saying "worn once"

Theyre either lying about the wear or they just like losing money right?

>>10663257
My guess is that a lot of people don't have either the wardrobe or the confidence to wear a lot of stuff and it just ends up unworn
Might as well get a bit of money back by selling them, in that case

>mfw My creepers should have been here by now

>>10663257

I've sold stuff as 'worn once'.
In my case it's like new but for whatever reason the item hasn't suited me or just can't force its way into my everyday wardrobe. I generally make a negligible loss.
I've also had good experience, in general, with buying that way. The lack of tags being the only indication the item wasn't new.

hey guys, shouls i trade a satg geo in hammered lamb for a bauhaus in blistered lambskin?
please help me out rick experts

pic related to the thread but not the post

>>10663351
Literally whatever you like most.

Im not a fan of geos and blistered lamb is my favourite material so I know what I would do.

I'm actually looking for a bauhaus or a scuba at the moment

>>10663257

In my case, I purchased for really cheap and it's just sitting my closet literally only having been worn once. Would rather move the money around to buy something I'll actually use.

>>10663351
Assuming you're the person with the stag geo, this is not a good trade in my opinion. Depends greatly on the condition of the garments and the season that the Bauhaus was made in.

>>10663363

I've got a couple bauhaus, what size are you looking for?

>>10663370
46, well depending on season 46. Tried a scuba on in the Rick store from Sphinx and I was a 46.

Do you reckon pod shorts were designed to be gym shorts?

>>10663379
They would be far to restricting unless you wore them around your nipples.

Is there actually any fake rick leather jackets?
Im assuming they would be incredibly difficult to recreate

>>10663449
Once I saw one but it was extremely obvious fake

Havent really decided yet dude, im not sure if I want to fulfil my dream of a Blistered Lamb jacket.

Was on the fence for a long time between Scuba/Bauhaus and have kinda settled on whatever I can get for a great price, probably around the $1k mark I would imagine, its doubtful I could get a good condition one for any less than that unless it was a miracle steal.

Im looking for a Rick piece to start my rickdrobe. Whats the best first piece to get other than t shirts?

>>10664316
This gets asked time and time again, and the only sensible answer is a piece that you fall in love with, even if its a Tank.

>>10664293
If only I could

>>10664316
For me, it's gonna be a pair of shoes.

>>10664327
There are many piece I like a lot but would only suite a rick owens type outfit, I was just wondering what the best "building piece" is.

>>10664379
Its a difficult question to answer without knowing what you have in your wardrobe. I've always thought cargo's are a pretty safe bet.

>>10664316

If yo can afford to spunk on a leather, it's a good start. People compliment a nice leather jacket a lot and you can throw it on with most outfits, so get a lot of wear from it.

>>10664293

>>10664628
Yeah and if you send them USPS its guaranteed that they will get a customs bill. They hand it over to Parcelforce, which is the parcel arm of our mail service, and its guaranteed that they customs charge pretty much anything then have the cheek to stick an £18 'handling' fee on it aswell. Unless you mark the price down but ive found that doesnt always work

If you have t-shirt that are long, they will compliment a pair of pods or other rick shorts and wearing a normal length tee fucks off the long silhouette.

With leggings get uniqlo heat techs as they're cheap but working well for the purposes, just make sure you wash them inside out on gentle cycle as they tend to pile

>>10665305
Which rick tees do you like best? I went through a lot of the sales going on, and there are so many different types of tees and longsleeves and tanks idk what to start with

>>10665314
shit... i have a lot... so it depends on the occasion lol

It's summer in Sydney so I have 3 multiples of the same black drkshdw (ss15) cotton sleeveless shirts (5 if you count the dust and pearl ones) and i rotate them through the half a dozen shorts I have. I have about a dozen in short sleeve and long sleeve in drkdhsw too, they're the beaters, you can wear them everyday and not worry too much. They are almost all i wear casually in summer.

Where as the mainline tees tend to be a mix of fabrics ranging from wool to nylon to silk, those you've gotta treat a little better and I use them for layering when I goto events.

Basically starting out i'd recommend doing drkshdw 100% cotton, grab a short sleeve as it won't be too much out of your comfort zone and it'll last. Remember that unless you have other clothes with a similar aesthetic language even one Rick piece can throw your entire outfit/wardrobe out of whack. So it's somewhat difficult to start with only one piece.

But having said that a S/S drkshdw tee with fitted black jeans (doesn't have to be rick) is a good start. Make sure you got some sweet kicks to go along with it as the thing about Rick is that his entire silhouette is grounded in footwear.
another note in the online stores see if the model is wearing a semi transparent shirt, those usually are a mixed fabric or a super light weight cotton, unless you're cool with people seeing ya nip nips, avoid them.

just grabbed a couple drkshdw jumbo tees for $110~ each on some lil cyber monday deal. stoked

>>10664293
hell no, not since i work at a convenience store anyways, and their dress code is super strict

>>10663783
should have went with something more basic otherwise you'll have to do what >>10663802
said ,or get something with similar aesthetic in a lower price range

other than that, nice pick up

>>10664558
I'm pretty sure most high end-retail tends to start you off at 13/hr. My friends works at Theory and he gets paid 13/hr. At a younger age that's not bad. Although i feel like most people work at higher end retail as a side job or something

>>10661829
bcuz he bought them for $170 and decided to rip off some fuccbois lmao

>>10665562

a paid $140 and it's hardly a ripoff to resell for a profit.

>>10665553

High end designer sales rep positions pay much much better.

>>10665562
>buy low
>sell high

Someone listed a piece with a margin for profit, anyone would have done the same. Tired of salty poorfags getting mad about people flipping things. You dont go to a retail store and get mad because they are reselling items at a higher price than what they paid for it.

Thanks alot man. I went with a safer colour way since it's my second rick piece i've ever owned and i don't really have much to work with

how much should i pay for a used Stooges Dark Shadow leather? Lamb.

So I think rick is doing vanilla soles again. The AW15 ramones I have, 2 pairs with white soles smelled a bit like vanilla. The pair of black ones still smelled like rubber though.

>>10666142
My leather socks smell like vanilla, tell me more about this?

>>10665856
Do not cop either, they both look really gaudy.
>>10666007
Eh, I see drk dust stooges for for like 500-600 so I really wouldn't pay more than that. I would say anything less than 500 is a good deal.

>>10666376
yeah, can't seem to see either of them working, maybe i should get some ramones, or ann d high tops, or just wait and get some geos

Picked up Creeper Boots for $465. Brand new with the box. Decent price?

>>10666268
ahhh good, I haven't bought socks yet, gonna wait till next season when they come down next year.

Basically old Rick (Pre-AW12) soles all smelled like vanille, so when you first opened the box you don't know if it was a pair of sneakers or a giant scented candle.

The current ones don't smell as strong, but that might be good because the old soles were not hard wearing at all.

>>10666454
for sure dude. I picked my up for 550 and I thought they were a steal.

Hey rick fans, could someone please show me a picture of these being worn? I can only find Geos.

My budgets around 4-500, and I have a friend who can get me 40% off at Nordstrom, but I don't know if that'd be the cheapest retail or if itd be better than 2nd hand. What should I look into now to build my wardrobe? Prisoners, save for Ramones, t-shirts or what?

Also what places are good to keep an eye on for good prices, and when would be the best time to buy?

Also I'm in Canada if that makes a big difference

no probs there dude, you can grab BBS, Julius or a whole heap of other designers who've jumped on the long silhouette bandwagon. as long as the shirt complimets the lowered crotch and expanded volume it's all good :)

From Vancouver. Got it at a place in Tokyo, had mmm, the soloist, junya, yohji all for cheap. None fit me till I found the hoodie.

Where should I get the Ramones? And drkshdw or mainline? Specifically looking at the nylon ones

>>10665745
Really cool.

I think I would struggle with these, seem to form to wear with ramones or geo's so I think I would be limited to combat boots, creepers or socks (if I had them :(( )

And I only have spiral creepers and I don't think they work with shorts

>>10666541
Nylon ones are from drkshdw.


>>10666542
Formal* damnit

>>10666547
Haha yes they are was asking if the drkshdw (specifically nylon) are worth getting instead of mainline, would the skimping be too bad or what

>>10666560
In my preference I would definitely spend extra for mainline. I've actually got my eye on some ss16 mainline ones.

The drkshdw ones are nice but they just don't do it for me unless I could get them for a steal

If you can get the leather ramones for a good prices then grab them. The leather is good and really durable. That said I have waxed and nylons drkshdw ramones too and they're all great.

Just find them for a price that's good for you, don't over spend anymore than you have to.

Did you size up on the safari to fit a hoodie on under it?

>>10666541
Oh damn another person from Vancouver that's in /rog/ , nice knowing that

>>10660612
fuck these fags man i think your looking good m8

>>10666664

I've always admired Rick's consistency and totally unique vision, always looking at his stuff, but never really diving into it so my opinion may or may not hold any weight but

I always kind of felt like his clothes are being worn 'wrong' if you can even say that...

I dunno, I just feel like the stuff wasn't meant to be worn in some kind of aspirational cool dark streetweary head to toe fit like this, it's like an easy conclusion to make

just from his interviews and personality, fits like this dont feel to me like what he's trying to do.. to me it feels like rick should be worn much more goofy? like light heartedly?

i dont even know, this is a weak critique and its peoples freedom to wear it and translate someones work however the fuck they want but i feel like rick owens has been adopted into this false image or something and isnt what he was going for in the first place

does anyone feel me or am i just dumb ok bye holy fuck there is a bee in my room

>>10666674
thx

i didnt size up, it would probably be too big

>>10666739
>its peoples freedom to wear it and translate someones work however the fuck they want

i agree with this

art is open to interpretation

who cares if people want to style it different from what the artist's original intention is. it's cool that people are enjoying it and they are doing new and cool things with it

life would be boring if u always had to follow rules

idk y u quoted me in particular but yeah

Would it be possible for a cobbler (?) to shorten the tongue on geos to that similar to the short-tongue iteration?

>>10666751

yeah and i feel like rick is the type of cool guy that he is totally incapable of even conceiving the idea of giving a shit about how people take and wear his stuff

i think what i wanted to say is that i miss when 'rick owens' didnt have such a concrete formulaic pattern when if comes to outfits now

like see this

http://humalien.tumblr.com/post/129542910336/going-on-streetpeeper-always-makes-me-sad-because

i think alot of these were before rick owens got really fuckign huge as he is right now, these just feel more fun and cool to me, its like they were integrating rick's clothes into their wardrobe instead of it being the other way around nowadays where people are just trying to become an image of what rick owens has become in popular media today

am i making any sense at all fuck im sorry its late im tired as fuck and have a shitton of homework

>>10663800
wtc those shoes

>>10666541
gonna give u a whats up if I ever see u in the wild fellow van rick bro

tfw never see anyone wearing rick

>>10666767

When I see those people I imagine them having been like, 'oh shit wow this rick owens guy is making really beautiful leather jackets' or 'wow what a lovely luxurious looking fur coat' or like 'damn those sneakers are super badass!!!' or 'wow that is a cute cardigan' and then saving money and buying it and being like yes this is awesome!! and wearing it with the rest of their other clothes

instead of now it's like

theres a concrete image or frame of reference of what people think "RICK OWENS FASHION" should be

its almost like people who are only getting into it now after he's blown up can't unsee or exit the frame of reference of what it has been adopted into, kind of like how you cant unsee cdg play logo being fucking fucked now whereas maybe 6-7 years ago you might have thought 'hey thats a really cute logo' without any of the added connotations / cultural images / social significance

its like if u got into rick owens after a certain point its way too easy for you to just see it as :

raf sion rick owens geobasket long tshirt dropcrotch sick fit all black instagram fashion x 1000

hahahaha what the fuck is this even a valid critique im totally just imagining what those peoples mindsets were

i dunno take it or leave it i feel like what i might be saying might make sense to a sliiiiiiiiiiiight degree

>>10666541

Are you me I'm from Vancouver and went to Tokyo last year

Not into Rick though

>>10666781
>>10666767
i get what you're saying

i mean im pretty new to all this, and i dont claim to be any sort of trendsetter or anything

i pick out and wear what i enjoy, that's all that matters, right? even if what i enjoy is not "cool and fun" or if it's not a new idea yeah?

>>10666815

yeah and in no way am i telling you that you're doing it wrong or ur a fashion victim fuccboi or whatever, i guess id just like to see people do other parts of rick's work justice, like i love his tailoring, his coats and trousers etc but i hardly ever see people wearing those you know?

you do you man that was just a tangent i went off on while doing homework

>>10666767
I definitely get what your getting at.

Its why I try and mixing my rick stuff with other designer stuff. Even though dressing up full Ricky is fun to.

The best idea is to have some variation and not think just because I'm wearing pods means I need a full rick fit

>>10666820
>>10666820
yeah i feel you

i think it's just harder to fit into what most people are used to wearing, plus it's harder to find inspiration if you aren't already exposed to it all, plus the less common items are less accessible, especially if you're looking for things secondhand

good discussion

get to work man, finals are coming up

>>10666664
I can tell your fit is pretty cool, but your posing is awful. For future fit pics just take a neutral stance with arms relaxed to the side, or even better a picture taken while you are in motion ala Adam Katz Sinding

>>10666520
>>10665355
How do you size for tees? Tts or down

>>10666897
Thanks my posing is terrible lol

>>10666953
TTS

>>10666953
I size up, i like the extra baggy feel, but it depends on the tees to as the jumbos are obviously looser fitted where as mainly silk mixes will be slimmer and cling to the bod.

I go 1 size because it's better to go bigger in Rick in my opinion, especially if you work out.

These are great posts m8s
I'm going to be copping some of my first Rick real soon and I was pretty stressed over how far to go because all I ever see is full Rick fits. Most of my fits are like pic related so I'm pretty confident that if I get some geos or ramones and some nice tees I'll be able to incorporate them pretty well into my current wardrobe.

So basically thx for the reassurance

>>10667021

yeah if i ever ended up getting any rick i think id get a pair of ramones or a cool ass big parka and wear it with band tees and / or my favourite gildan heavy blend sweaters in 2XL with some thrifted pants and go out and have a blast and forget all about whatever the fuck im wearing

ive always thought itd be 'fun' to wear rick if that makes sense? just never bought into it because i just dont look good in alot of it and i spend my money on other designers

Yeah man. What you described made me think of this pic I saw in a thread earlier. V chill and a great use of Rick imo

>>10666007

I'd generally say £400 is alright for a used leather but go a bit higher if you personally like it a lot. Obviously condition will come into it too.

I've got a Dark Shadow Stooges and it's quite interesting. I've never worked out exactly what season it is from so if anyone could enlighten me?

>>10667049
I like the way you approach it.

The best I can deduce is before 2012.

>>10667617
>>10667614
Yeah thats pretty much what I was going to say. Anything pre 12' has that style product code.

You might be able to find out if it is SS or AW if it has a carrying strap

>>10667523
Where did you see that?

>>10667630
Subscribe to the newsletter.

Im interested to see them but dont want to spend 500 euros to get one.

>>10667629

It has the strap inside.

>>10667636
That would make it from a SS season

>>10667631
CHEERS
A

>>10667642

Is that consistent with all s/s? My s/s14 stooges doesn't have one.

>>10667649
No he stopped a few years back. Hence why the new ones don't have them.

Its a shame he stopped as they make the jacket so much more fun for me

>>10667629

This is wrong. Anything before FW13 has that product code. 2012 had a lowercase "made in Italy" (at least for Mountain, not positive about Naska) also the fact that it's made in Italy at all and lastly the sizing being XL rather than Italian sizing leads me to believe it's solidly earlier than Mountain. Probably 2010-2011

>>10667699
Oh was it '13? My mistake.

Didn't know about the lower case manufacture detailing, interesting to know.

>>10667709

Specifically FW13. Island had the old code.

>>10667723
Yup just checked my Island Double layer.

It also has "Made In Italy" in lower casing.

>>10667745

So does FW12. I'm not sure about SS12 but I'm pretty sure it was just those three seasons that had lowercase

>>10667871
I am glad hes settled into some consistency with his tags.

I don't post pics often, you can probably see why

>when_will_they_learn.jpg.png.tiff.mp3.exe

>>10667927
This is why I like B/B Geobaskets, they work as combat boots aswell in certain fits.

Is that tee purple? Would like to see another layer under the tee aswell.

Its really actually quite similar to my lazy city explorer fit. B/B geos, black denim, some layered tees or double layer, flecktarn and a black rucksack

>>10668002
Yeah, definitely more of a boot feel from b/b and that's why I got them.
The tee is actually dark blue/grey, no idea why it looks purple in the pic. Only just noticed now that I'm on my laptop.
And yeah, definitely looking at more stuff to layer now.

>>10668019
Would be cool with a dick flap tank, or some distressed hem tee, DIY an h&m tee.

>>10667871
I don't suppose you know when the tags switched from being plasticy to more papery?

Basket creepers came in and they're just lovely

>thank you papa Rick

Anyone here used ssense/ farfetch/ antonioli? My local boutique doesn't have what i want in my size so i might order online. Bought geos online a couple of years ago and my experience with online shopping wasn't so pleasant to say the least.

>>10668267
Used them all and never had a problem

>>10668231
I really like basketcreepers, work so well with pods

>>10668267
Bought my geos from SSENSE during the sale
Didn't have any issues and they shipped pretty quickly
Can't say anything of the customer support because I didn't need it

>>10668304
Tried the pods + Basket creepers combo today and i'm sure ass hell going to buy me some legwarmers

>shit's cash

>>10668333

Yeah I really want a pair just for that desu, maybe when I move my spiral creepers on I will

With a turtleneck or a mohair knit is tasty

>>10668333
Out of interest how did you size on them? I've never tried them on and im assuming theyre similar to geo sizing

>>10668339
>pods + creepers + turtleneck

This exact fit is what I wanted to achieve, very slick look

Why won't it work with spirals? Do they steal focus away from the entire ensemble

>>10668385
I think theyre too chunky, and the leg opening a bit wide.

it might work, ive never tried it on with much conviction before

>>10666664
I dislike it. You are one of many, but not in an outstanding way.

>>10668352
Went 1 size down like geo's
>/ROG/ info is on point yet again

>>10663366
yeah im the guy with the geo, i actualy discussed selling it to you like a month ago on here, its pretty much immaculate, ive cared for it like a child, im just really not into wearing "shiny" leather anymore, as i think its a bit too flashy, im not sure what season the bauhaus is from but i think its an older version so it should be ok. anyway i decided not to trade, but i might sell it so let me know if youre still interested, i can send you some pics.

Omg the DD02 are my favorite. We had those in the shop in double black, I sold them for way too fucking cheap. Should have kept them for myself. Regrets.

Checkout Rigards. They have a cool pair of prescription frames on ssense sale right now.

Also Yohji prescription frames are incredible. Hervia had a number but I think they are mostly sold out now.

Mykita is great of course, maybe a bit too techy at times.

Kuboraum, like Rigards, is great if you have the face for it, but they are much too large for me. My face is narrow and angular... They just do not work on me.

I have a cote et ciel backpack I wear everyday. Pretty good construction, very minimal.

>>10669391
yeah i was looking at some of them, but I really want a different material than ballistic nylon. I've had high end packs before and while they're indestructible and perform well, I'm looking for something with an interesting finish that stands apart from what I've owned in the past.

the waxed eastpak i posted above is pretty much exactly what im looking for. I have a few months before I'd use it so hopefully one pops up on rakuten or something, but since chances are so slim I'll look into some leather packs as well.

>>10667631

>>10669001
Tbh with glasses I wouldn't concentrate on getting a pair to fit an aesthetic, I would try and get a pair that suits me above anything else.

I used to think "level" tee meant one that was shorter than the super long shirts. Now I'm noticing tees in the Rickstore that are very long and labeled "level". Are level tees just ones with a finished hem?

Where can one get bracelets like those Rick wears (parts of four mostly) without selling a kidney?

"Level" tee is a specific cut but it's mostly identifiable by the shoulder seams. They have seams that are at the front, about an inch down, instead of on top of the shoulder. They generally fit a little more like regular t shirts and don't stack up like his standard tees.

>>10670533
Before you do any of that, make sure that you're allowed in through immigration. I'm not sure what the NZ passport allows but for me I'm allowed into hkg without applying for a visa, but mainland China I can 'stop over' for like 48 hours but I can't leave the airport or something like that, China are super strict on their visas

is there any reason why a "worn once" still with tags $2000 Rick lamb bomber in white be selling for $300 if it looks real in pictures

>>10670568
Probably stolen.

>>10670568
White is a pretty low-interest color for leathers AFAIK. They likely bought it at a steep discount to begin with, so I wouldn't compare retail price.


Still sounds like a suspiciously good deal though. Got pics?

>>10670580
If I risk my shit stealing a Rick jacket I'm doing it for more than $300

nervous to post because I might purchase tomorrow and I don't want anyone to reverse search the pic and steal it :/ I'm on my phone right now but tomorrow around 3PM CST I'll post pics I saved on my computer to get some help verifying its authenticity

>>10670554
Thanks for the heads up apparently an NZ passport allows for a 90 visa free visitation so I should be good.

>>10670621
Gotta be careful with customs bringing it back in. You would probably have to declare it unless it's a gift or under a certain price.

We all senpai here at ROG.

>>10670533
There's a Rick Owens store near Central in Hong Kong

>>10670669
Yeah I figure if I do get them I'll chuck out the box and wear them around a few times so they wont be new enough to be of concern.

>>10670720

Could also mail the box to yourself if you wanted to keep it

>>10670704
Definitely on my list. Being my first time on HK do you have any other recommendations?

>>10670724
Shipping rates to NZ are pretty crazy so I can't see myself keeping it unfortunately.

I have some of the basic cotton sleeveless tees, and they distort and stretch quite easily.

would washing them at a higher temprature help bring back the shape somewhat

B/B reverse leather ramones went up on grailed. earlier. Look a bit beat but I know people in here were gurning for reverse leather ramones

>>10670602

>>10671557
i dont think it is this. He said "leather bomber", the one on grailed is nylon.

>>10671557

just cop a jansport, take the label of and wax it

>>10671595
idiot

I have some limo creepers and someone said I should use redwing oil on them occasionally.

Theyre a reversed/suede oiled kind of material

any sense in what i was told?

>>10671729
I wouldn't use oil on suede desu

>>10671736
Im not entirely sure on the material

Theyre definitely reversed leather though

>>10671729
Oil on Suede/rough out is generally a bad idea unless it's a waxed suede to begin with. if you wanted rain protection for something like that I would say to get silicone spray.

>>10671758
"Not sure on the material"

"Definitely reversed leather"

Ur gonna have to make your mind up m8

>>10671759
I dont want to weather protect them they're protective enough as it is.

Just want to keep the leather supple really because of the spiral zip and they crease and fold around the ankle

>>10671762
Well yeah theyre reversed but that could be something like nubuck or roughout or suede and then they could be waxed or oiled I dont know

>>10671767
Reversed = rough out
Nubuck and suede are different materials entirely. Waxed should be fairly apparent, because they will feel waxy.

>>10662623
people have feet that small?

>>10671763
If that's the case you could oil them, but I would do it very sparingly. Reverse leather absorbs oil much quicker and it's easy to overdo it. They probably don't need oiling as often as you think, like maybe once a year max.

>>10671782
Nope, no one has ever had size 41 feet. They just make shoes that size for the fun of it

>>10671783
This is the material

>>10671791
Reversed leather/Rough out.

get a suede brush to keep dust and shit off. Oil it very carefully if you want, but I don't think it will need it.

>>10671791
They're the same ones I have, i've never treated mine with anything and they've been holding up fine. Like anon said just brush the dirt off.


On a side note I tried them with a bit more effort with pods today and it actually looks alot better than I thought it would

Oops, was going to say I enjoy the illusion of you floating while wearing them.

I got e-mail from ssense customer care regarding sizing of RO Limo Creepers and they told me that according to measurement I should size up +1 size from my TTS (should go for 42 instead of 41).

Anyway, insole from heel to toe size greed is very strange and disproportional:
40 - 10 in
41 - 10.25 in
42 - 10.75 in

I've contacted them before to take measurements of Damir Doma Silent sneakers (margom sole obvs) and honestly I don't believe those measurements were even close (I was afraid 41 which I bought would've been bordering tight, yet I had to insert orthopedic insole, fits perfect with it).

Measuring insole from heel to toe does not mean they also allow some space outside the insole?

Daaaaamn this I want to try creepers IRL instead of typing in dull numbers :(

>>10671913
They are actually my favorite out of the 4
>Fuck you NAHK
The all blacks or all cream just seemed boring, and the black with white sole reminded me way too much of most other shoes I already have.

A shoe with a white upper and a black sole, is something that isn't all too popular. I think it's a really nice look.

>>10671921
>>10671917
Exactly! What price did you get them for, if you don't mind saying?

>>10671941
$150

>>10671946
Damn, got mine for $170 from Europe to US.

>>10671926

What's the return policy for ssense? It's usually pretty good from what I remember.

>>10671937

Heh. Im just saying there's a reason those sold out last and the cheapest. Not that your taste is worse or wrong, just in the minority for finding them attractive. I liked them most initially but I'm all about the white/white

Just bid a guy 1000 for a Crust oiled calf intarsia. Hold me ROG
