I'll start should I get a brand new pair of B/W Geobaskets or '08 Creatch B/W Dunks? They will cost me roughly the same amount.

Also dump inspo for Dunks

>>10272385
If they're in that condition, get dunks

>>10272385
i'd get the dunks, they are only getting more rare
just get geos in a year or two

>>10272395
they're in fair condition, but I just took the pic off google

***re-posting cause I didn't get much of a reply in the last thread, s/o to the one guy that did reply tho :))***

Does anyone know if Rick will release Reverse Leather Ramones again? I know there's always grailed and other second hand sites as an option but i'd prefer to cop them new tbh.

Also does anyone have fit pics of ramones being worn with slim or skinny jeans? I love ramones but the whole baggy aesthetic / look that comes with most rick doesn't really suit me

>>10272382
what the fuck are those alien creatures

>>10272385
I agree with the other two anons, get dunks, they're getting more and more rare every day and imo they look way better than geos

Which Rick item should I buy so I can join this meme club?

>>10272416
dude omfg i spit chocolate milk out of my nose lmao xD

>>10272424
I'd say start with a few tees, then move on to outwear / footwear. One tee was enough to get me hooked.

>>10272440

I was thinking about going all in with a leather jacket. Will it look stupid without a full rick fit.

>>10272443
It will that's why you gotta build up to it. Go with a Double Layer Tee, it's easy to style but unique enough to stand out.

>>10272428
what are you 6

>>10272385
I seriously don't understand why nike sued rick.
That line looks nothing like the nike swoosh.

>>10272488
I can see similarity, and apparently so did Rick's legal team. Although, it's a shame, because they were an incredible design. Geobaskets just can't compete with a pair of Dunks.

Rick Owen's London is reopening after refurbishments maybe Rick/Michele will turn up. Will I see any of you there?

>>10272537
It's already open? I was in there less than 2 weeks ago

>>10272385
dunks fo sho, you'll have a chance to cop geos every season, if you find dunks in good condition, Buy them

>>10272506
if they had to stop howcome theres still brand new dunks popping up for sale?

>>10273022
There isnt lmao, doubt people have kept them in the box unworn for 7 years then putting them on grailed

Are vicious dunks a bad idea?

How big are the one size tanks? are we talking big enough to fit a cow or what?

>>10272416
ZoMG O_o

>>10273240

Roomy, but they work on a lot of bodies. If you're REALLY big, then no so much, but I've seen everyone from the buff fit model in the showroom to lanky dudes like myself wear it and it suits a lot of people. I prefer it in finer jerseys and not the thick cotton, but it's doable in all fabrics.

>>10273054

Mostly for people who want a Rick proportion, but not the detailing. It's a bit too watered down for me, but I can see the appeal and the use.

>>10272443

No. You see people wearing Stooges and Worker jackets all the time because they're so straightforward and classic, but with the little tweaks that make them feel special.

>>10273358
thanks for info on the tanks, just copped a jersey one for 70% off

>>10273366

damn, where?

Would low ramones or high ramones look better with pod shorts?

>>10273391
cruise

>>10273442
highs for sure, need something chunky

This is an honest question. Does people seriously like Rick Owens? I thought it was just a meme. It really looks just completely awful.

>>10273483
Have you ever heard of anything called an opinion?

There are no designer "memes" in real life, stop spouting buzzwords

do yuo think I could flip these for a profit? selling for 400EUR per piece in Amsterdam

>>10273571
Easily.

Can sell for 600+ with no issue

>>10273590
cheers

>>10272409
I think a store in Hamburg still carries these.

>>10273595
Just look at grailed, 600USD is like the standard for geos and ive seen them go for 750USD

>>10273471
Are the lows not chunky enough?

>>10272385
tfw you realize shit like buying shoes and keep them in box for 10 years guarantess you some mad profit

>>10273690
nah i wouldnbt say so

>>10273483
Hahahaha

hey guys I'm also wanton to buy my first Rick piece. Can anyone tell me if this is legit because the price is fantastic

http://www.cruisefashion.com/rick-owens-ricks-tank-top-592409?colcode=59240901

>>10273828
thats womens

>>10273828

Ofcourse its legit, cruise are a massive seller

>>10273886
Nah, dont think it is. And even if it is who cares

>>10273914
It is, its in the womens section

>>10273918
point still stands, who cares? No one would even notice

>>10272554
yeah turns out the refurbishment was just a paint-up so its all boring nobody fun was there and everyone was surly because they had a stressful day ;[

>>10273920
Womens clothing and mens clothing especially in one size fits all will fit differently

>>10273940
sure it fits slightly differently but it really isnt obvious to anyone, the OS tanks are just slightly nipped in at the waist.

I rock womens pods all the time becuase they look better on me than the mens

>>10273947

Post yfw you realized Rick Owens was actually a really ugly chick and Michelle Lamy has a dick

>>10273953
No, just skinny af.

>>10273828

Rick even said that he hates the gender definiton of clothing, rock it for rick.

>>10273886

They put it on a women's mannequin, but it's from the men's collection. The closest thing in the women's collection in terms of shape are the Halter Tee and kind of the Column Tee.

>>10273571
CRAZY I WAS THERE THIS MORNING! i bought truffles at the store opposite. I'm back in switzerland now

>>10272382
got a chance to cop this for 260$ coppernot

>>10274094
i own 0 rick at all

>>10273571 Was there today too. bought a Rick shirt. pretty nice.

>>10274127
what store is it?

>>10272382
Rick Owens is a troll right? I mean yeah its funny we got kiddos/retarded preadults to spent like thousands of dollars on literal garbage that will make you look like a fucking dweeb... But I'm beginning to feel bad guys. These kids don't know any better.

Fuck its so god awful, imagine them looking back at themselves in a couple years... Shit that cringy regret they gon' feel. No adult should dress like this, and no kid should use so much of their hard earned money (or their parents) on this trash.. Waste of everything..

Whatever, express your 'art' and what nonsense i've heard people defend his trash with. Whatever gets you wet, just.. Dont assume people will turn their heads thinking you are well dressed in this trash clothing.. You are as deluded as Trunks were.

>>10274255

I'd cop if I wasn't fat

>>10274255
I don't get people who don't do what they want.

Fashion is like anything, you should behave in accordance to your own tastes. I think Rick's clothing is beautiful, and that's why I buy and wear it.

The only intention Rick has is for you to like his things and wear them. If you don't like it, fine.

If you don't understand it, maybe that's on you. I like how you are so quick to shrink an idea like art appreciation into "2deep4u". Why like anything? Are you supposed to just have a passing interest in things? Are we going to ignore that digging deep into any area of fine art is very rewarding, or that it alters your perception? Rick is the kind of designer that takes the history of clothing and fashion into consideration with his designs, as well as a sort of prediction of where it can, or should, go. If you are used to just fast fashion jeans and t-shirts everywhere, I can see how it would be jarring, but to me it looks very natural, it has a timeless quality and a very modern feeling to it.

I'm not going to listen to the radio all the time just so I can know all the music everyone talks about, I'm going to listen to shit I love to listen to even if I can't talk to most people about it. I'm not going to wear shit you think is appropriate because who are you, and why do you think I need to impress you? I don't really want anything to do with someone who has an issue with the way I look.If I'm crossing the street and people are staring, then whatever, I'm probably listening to music or talking to someone.

This never happens though. I've never had any social problems. If anything, it's brought me into contact with people I can relate to.

So there you go. Do what you want, because you're going to die

>>10274258
Used it just as an expression for: Nobody will admire, like, look with awe, think 'nice', drool, even remotely enjoy -> the look you achieve with Rick owens.

>>10274255

>I don't like it so nobody else can enjoy it.

Literally black-and-white textbook autism.

>>10274324
You would have never worn Rick unless there was some hype to it, and in hope somebody would recognize it. Also, calling his clothes art, shows you know very little of art, and he hardly incorporates art history into his clothing, maybe just history. More so he is saying fuck fashion history and going his own way, but in all honesty i feel sorry because holy shit it looks goofy, and if you like looking goofy that is on you. I will never understand it, the same way i will never understand anyone who dresses goth (don't tell me its not remotely the same thing). I know I'm gonna die, i wanna achieve something before i close my eyes the last time, and i sure as wont do that if i spent all my cash on drapes and astronaut boots.
But yeah go ahead and dress in it, but when you're 30 and missing some extra pocket change or looking back at your early adulthood.. Damn, you will cringe son.
(Again.. It's all in the hype and the name.. Not in some artform, expression or whatever excuse)

>>10274637
But anon. I dress for myself

>>10274644
Eh, i for one get that people like it.. They are free to, i just don't see the appeal, nor have i gotten a good explanation to why, at least not a single one that doesn't come down to that it is hyped designer clothing all bought for the name.

Pursue your dreams and hopes, but it is like getting tattood on the hands and head, you sure as shit wont be employed showing up in dunks and robes.

>>10274669
There are so many things wrong with your post that I'm going to break it down for everyone to see.
>You would have never worn Rick unless there was some hype to it, and in hope somebody would recognize it.
wrong
>he hardly incorporates art history into his clothing
If you think an artist NEEDS to incorporate history into their work your a fucking retard

>in all honesty i feel sorry because holy shit it looks goofy
Ok? No one cares man. Your just like those people on youtube who go and comment on videos they don't like. "eww mf doom he sucks!" Just fuck off already.

>I know I'm gonna die, i wanna achieve something before i close my eyes the last time, and i sure as wont do that if i spent all my cash on drapes and astronaut boots.
Look dude, again no one cares about your personal aspirations here. You don't have to go out of your own way to tell someone you don't like something.

>But yeah go ahead and dress in it, but when you're 30 and missing some extra pocket change or looking back at your early adulthood.. Damn, you will cringe son.
Except I'm not a poorfag. My parents have money, I have money, and I'm going to medical school.

>Again.. It's all in the hype and the name.. Not in some artform, expression or whatever excuse
Wow you actually managed to write this poor excuse for an argument in perfect ring structure. Unfortunately though your wrong again.

> artform, expression or whatever excuse
>whatever excuse
>whatever excuse
If this is how you reason than maybe I'm the one who should feel sorry.


Listen up everyone, (especially people new to Rick and interested in his clothing) avoid retards like this. Some people just cannot reason correctly and will be so extremely stubborn that nothing you say could convince them. Unfortunately I got baited, but learn from my mistakes.

Oh and if your still thinking of responding please try to present an argument other than, "IT REALLY IS HYPE GUYSSS."

>>10274669
Stop liking what I don't like etc etc.

It's comfy.

>>10274265
>http://www.ultraviolet-amsterdam.nl/
they don't have them for sale online :(

>>10272385
buy dunks dude you won't regret it. they'll only increase in value.

>>10275170
Bummer, But I doubt that they'd sell them for 400. The owner said to me that Rick never goes on sale there except for some mustard color shirts since they didn't fit in his store.

>>10274324
I wholly feel the same way. Some people spend way too much time criticizing everything they don't like or understand instead of just doing what they do like. I feel like it could be projecting their insecurity and fear of being themselves on others. I like and get ricks clothing, and his whole artistic vision. I don't spend time bitching about how stupid other peoples styles are, I'd rather indulge in the things that I personally like.

Well guys my worst nightmare came true. Bought my first Rick shoes ever on grailed. Sender fucked up the zip code so it was sent to another location. Now usps told me they lost the package and I should ask for a refund from the supplier. I don't even know what to do I just lost 500 dollars and when my parents find out I'm gonna get my ass kicked fuck me.

>>10274669
You said it yourself, you don't get it, you don't share the perception that others who do get it do. We're not trying to impress you, the world doesn't revolve around your personal tastes, if you don't like the small circle in this world exploring these types of aesthetic styles, why waste time blabbering about how you don't understand it and think it looks goofy.

>>10274976
would be so nice with that one size tank that rick wore in those pics with the sock Ramones (in pearl I think?) or a jumbo tee.

still sooooo good though

>>10275554

File a Paypal dispute.

>>10275554
I wouldn't be worried at all. If the sender fucked up paypal will have your back 100%. Not to mention if USPS lost the package and nothing was signed you can reasonably win the claim right then and there as you never received a thing.

>>10274324
STOP PAsting THIS ITS CRINGE AF

>>10275678
He/She's right

Ramones with cap or without cap? The cap has that iconic Rick look but without it they look so much more sleek. I'm not sure which look better

>>10274805
First of all, i did not imply he incorporates fashion history, the other guy did. Second of all, i said i respected it, but that i needed an actual reason for why people likes his clothing. You could achieve his aesthetic in many other ways than spending literally RIDICULOUS amounts of money. Anyone in this thread has yet to give me their reason to what it is that is appealing, that is why i continually assume it is due to hype and name.
Really wear whatever the fuck you want, but you would never wear any garment in the rick-ish aesthetic unless it has his name on the tag, as far as i can understand from these threads. Then people are MOCKED when they try to go for the aesthetic, but do it without spending thousands and buying the rick clothing. That happens on here, no praise for people who likes the aesthetic, only praise for people who wear and like Rick.
Yet anyone has managed to convince me what the appeal is. Then they are called poorfags for trying to achieve a look which you all praise, but in fact it seems it is merely the name and again hype, that you admire and want.
Then people ramble when i try to understand it, instead of giving me any reason to. Calling me out with the usual responses, instead of presenting an actual argument other than 'i like it' whic would be fine, if they could reason WHY. IMHO you can't rationalize behaviour and interests in that way, and also this is a fashion board, why not fucking discuss fashion instead of closing up and getting all mudd, i am trying to open a discussion.
I mean, could people not achieve this aesthetic without spending their little pay (and damn apparently parents money, jeez) and without resorting to Rick, which is mainly runway fashion, and IMO yeah a *fashion-art* kinda statement, not to be publicly worn, but to mess with the conservative fashion and try to push it in other directions and show possibilities that COULD maybe be incorporated into fashion, but not be worn seriously and publicly?

>>10275795

Just different looks. One is more of a sneaker, one is almost a boot.

>>10275152
I can get comfy clothing for 20 bucks at H&M...? Not much of a reason, definitely not a reason to spend 3 grand on a single outfit

>>10275800

I have a feeling that you just don't want to be pleased, but you raise an interesting point.

>You could achieve his aesthetic in many other ways

What brands and products have you found that are comparable? I think a very signature item would be the bias-cut pants. I don't really see anybody doing anything else quite like it, though you do see wider legged and kind of slouchy pants from brands like The Row and Celine, but the specific detailing and fit of the bias pants always stand out. Could you show me some of the "other ways" this look could be replicated?

It seems like you have a very strong opinion about the subject, so having some insight into some specifics would be very helpful.

>>10275806

I can't find any silk/viscose tees with super long sleeves and raw hems at H&M. I wish I could and if you ever see some, let me know.

should I cut off sleeves off my LS, I can make some socks lel

>>10275800
you're assuming alot. If anything I've personally been dressing "similarly" before I even found /fa/. I've always been into the monochrome gothesque futurism that rick owens appeals too.

>>10275849
wtc boots those are nice

>>10275941
any season combat just sole variations

>>10275800
>Anyone in this thread has yet to give me their reason to what it is that is appealing, that is why i continually assume it is due to hype and name.
Because that's fucking impossible. I can't explain why I like Monet or Kandinsky to a greater extent as to why I like Rick over others brands. I just do. It's called taste.

>>10275800
I know this is a lie because I've followed the past 10-15 Rick threads from top to bottom. Every question about Rick to new people has been met with nothing but kindness. The only people who get hate are butthurt retards like you. Read the archive you fucking newfag.

>>10275941
they were on sale at jus.se for like 550 USD last FW sale.

>>10275795
Im in love with my capless ramones. Wore them everyday. Even to work.

>>10276580
Any fit pics? I really want to pull the trigger.

>>10272488
Rick actually said himself it was designed as an absurd mashup of sports sneakers including nike dunks. specifically mentioning nike was probably where he went wrong.
He said he was flattered when he received the cease-and-desist

>>10272385
Like everyone is saying, get Dunks. Not only because they are rarer and more value potential but they are far higher quality than current season geos.

>>10272409
I think the shearling ramones are a beautiful alternative if you live in suitable climate for it lol.
I hope the do another run of these soon. I'm sure there will be sometime.

>>10272409

>>10274094
I don't like the flair on the sleeves but it's a great price for sure

>>10274094
w2c? Or 2nd hand?

>>10276721
what jeans are those?

The people in OPs pic look terrible and those Geobaskets look like 3rd world bootleg design.

Why the fuck does everyone worship this old guy in a fucking skirt

>>10276952
Not sure if bait

Copped these new for a good price last night, excited to get them in the mail :) Finally decided to pull the trigger after a few weeks. Planning to get some rick layering T's in the next couple weeks too

ok rick has already gotten told by nike to stop copying them, now when is converse going to step forward and tell him to stop copying their designs as well??

>>10277270
the "converse" design is ripped off by tons of companies. it's just a basic shoe design there's nothing terribly unique about it

>>10277270
They would have to do that to more or less every shoe company that exists if they bothered with Rick and I doubt they have the money for it.

>>10276760
im buying it from a friend who doesnt like it anymore

Pods finally arrived.

love the rayon/acetate/cotton blend

I only own black rick footwear, also really interested in getting creeper boots, which are black.

Kind of want to get away from black footwear a bit with rick, possibly selling/trading my b/b geos for b/w but i've never been a particular fan of them. Any suggestions?

why are his clothes so expensive? They are cheap materials and looks like shit too

>>10277668
>They are cheap materials and looks like shit too


:^)

poorboi get out

>>10277668
i dont like thing so thing is bad
dont talk about the quality of materials with that pleb opinion of yours

>>10277678
thats the truth

Just praying that some of these older knits with the cool ribbed detailing come up in XL


>>10276698
you don;t know what you're talking about.

Rick's shoe quality has never been higher. THe dunks have staples for fuck sake.

>>10277452
fit pic? Do they go up stairs?

>>10277678
>>10277685
>Projecting
He is kind of right though, even if you do like the cut, the materials are not exactly 10/10, and not worth the price tag. The price tag is mainly due to the name on it.. Even Rickbois know that

>>10277689

>>10277685
It's a nigger brand.This nigger wearing thoes shit clothes makes the brand rly garbage

>>10277702
I can't believe people still bring this shit up.

This is what you get with "designer" fashion. You are not paying for durable working clothes.

If you are responsible with your money you should buy some sturdy clothes made in your own country and donate the rest to charity

jesus

>>10276003
>Being new
Anyways, i said that people who try to achieve the look, but without actual RICK garments are getting fucked on.
"Hi guys, i love the Rick look, but i dont have the money, so i bought fakes/off-brand/DIY"
And then people fucking stomp them with their fashion elitism and pappamoney. Which is way offputting and shows how fucking little they actually know about fashion and that they are trendjumpers 100p

>>10277360
>>10277321
>>10277270

You can't copyright a shoe pattern, basically. Rick didn't copy the design of the shoe. It's entirely different. What he got in trouble for with the dunks was the "Swoosh" which is a trademark. You CAN get in trouble for reproducing somebody else's trademark. For example if on the Ramones he started putting a logo similar to the converse logo, he would get a C&D.

>>10277704
go back to /b/ and forget about fashion

>>10277712
>offputting
yes
>shows how fucking little they actually know about fashion

no. I have never seen fakes/copies that are not shit.

it goes both ways: rich people shouldn't shit on the poor, and poor people shouldn't do the sour grapes thing

your aliexpress sneakers a shit

>>10277712

What? False! Rick threads are the only threads with nice people in the interacting with each other like normal human beings. Then some assholes hop in and ask the same half assed questions like "why do you guys like this trash" or "where can I get fakes because I'm too poor to afford the real thing" which are both fucking lame
I'm sorry but if you buy fakes you are a piece of shit and truly don't belong around other people who care about fashion and design

>>10277711
Lmao, jesus christ that is so wrong it fucking hurts. If you buy a designer suit in high end prices, you can be damn sure the materials are magnificent, stitching too. If you buy runway fashion sure, you can't be guaranteed (but you are not supposed to dress in runway clothing, duh)
That really does not correlate with Rick Owens. You are paying for design and name, but without the quality I would expect, if i went and spent grands on clothing...
>responsible with your money
>Rick thread
k

going to sleep

dont be nerds

>>10277689
>Do they go up stairs?

Lmao. Does wearing rick limit you to ground floors?

Yeah they're women's so they don't come down to far, don't impair movement

>>10277727

What is the "quality" you expect from a product that is deliberately washed and aged to be slinky and soft and worn when you first receive it? It seems like you just want the clothes to be made in a way that is counter to the way they have to be made to look, feel, and fit the way they do. Are there brands you know that make super thin, easily snagged tees and slink and drape down the body but are also super durable and thick? Aren't those two opposite methods of manufacture?

>>10277720
>>10277723
>these guys
>not elitist assholes
Heh. But yeah you get the deal, right. People like the look (i for the love of god don't, which is probably obvious) and you fucking stomp on them for not being 'right' and having the money for the 'real' siqq Rick look, only achieved with papas money. Often people post fakes and y'all can't even tell the fucking difference.
I would never buy fakes clothing since i care about quality and material, which is ALSO the reason i would never buy Rick.
Stay mudd

>>10277743

I think the issue isn't that people dislike them for buying fakes or copycat designs, but that a lot of the fakes and copies don't wear in the same way. It's like saying you love tenderloin and serving flank. Yes, both are meat, both can be delicious, but you can't treat them the same.

>>10272382
hey

>>10277857
since when ronald mcdonald got into black clothes

LMAO

>>10276698
The dunks have staples and pencil eraser soles. You literally shave 0,5 cm off the sole every time you take them for a spin. I'd agree that they look nice, but quality wise they leave a lot to be disered.

>>10277727
>but you are not supposed to dress in runway clothing, duh

Says who?

Stop being constrained by imaginary rules and fashion faux pas

>>10277727
This guy again. People dress in runway clothing all the time, get over it.

>>10277704
You are liteally the most closed minded person in this thread.

Must feel good to be a hick, right?

Thinking about buying a pair of canvas Ramones soon, was curious if any of you guys own a pair, and could tell me what to expect in terms of quality. Stuff like thickness of the canvas and how well they age.

>>10277948
Good quality and they age well

>>10277743

You're missing the point entirely, buying fakes is unacceptable. You're throwing out straw mans with this "papas money" nonsense and saying that people can't tell the difference because they can. Stop projecting. Go outside and hang out with people IRL, you'll see that there 4chan isn't real life. This isn't the baseline for measuring what people know about designer shit. I'd be willing to bet you've never owned designer clothing or that you probably have zero friends that do, and that's fine I don't give a fuck nobody gives a fuck about your designer clothing but when you come in and start talking shit expect to have somebody call you out. Saying that there is little difference between fakes and auth shows how ignorant and lacking an eye for subtlety you possess, it's not elitism and it's a fact. On the subject of elitism, isn't that the point of high end clothing? To be elite? To make the best or be the best at what it is? Why settle for anything less than the best? It's all perception based - what you're saying about not buying Rick is equally as "elitist" by your standards but lacking in fucking substance. Keep shopping at ASOS or whatever the fuck nobody cares if you don't like Rick but why bother be on here? You're wasting your time. Clearly a lot of fucking people all over the world have loved rick for well over a decade now. It's not going away

Depends on the material. The soles are bulletproof especially if you put a heel tap on and are good about picking up your feet.

I have them in suede, canvas, and leather. I like the suede the best, followed by the canvas and then the leather. I'm not quite a fan of how the white leather he uses ages, but the black looks sick when aged.

>>10278181

Which leather is it? Makes a huge difference. I have the calf in cream and love the way it's aging.

>>10278194
I have the deerskin geobaskets and the cream calfskin ramones. The deerskin ages great. I wasn't a fan of the calfskin after a certain point.

>>10277634
bumping this, it got lost in all the angsty rick hate

>>10277743
>>10277743
if you ever saw Rick's stuff in real life, wore his clothing and footwear especially you would understand that even the Chinese trying to make 1:1 fakes are fucking up badly. I might order a pair of fakes one day and do a comparison infographic to explain how shit they are. Yes, you need to be tall and athletic to pull off Rick so a model wearing fakes will look better than a fat manlet wearing the real thing but seriously, there really aren't many real alternatives to actual Rick if you enjoy the aesthetic and the quality is truly fantastic. you will be surprised if you actually try it on one day.

got a brand new pair of DS ramones. they are squeaky as fuck right now. watt do?

>>10278694
>Yes, you need to be tall and athletic to pull off Rick

Im not a manlet by any means, but I think this is a bit of a myth - sure youre limited in what you buy, you might look stupid wearing the chunky felpa shorts and cargobaskets and stuff like that but there is plenty of stuff you can wear no problem

>>10278225

yeah some of rics stuff is too shiny to the point it makes you look like a gimp if you wear them together


matte texture is better imo for certain things

>>10278725

unfortunately the squeak is a new design feature to make it more like a clownshoe

>>10278763
lel

>>10278725
Its just new rubber, wear them a while

>>10278782
hehe I know man I was just humblebraggin to make that one poorboi Rick hater mad ;)

thanks for the thoughtful reply though, love the Rick threads

>>10278818
Thats ok fam, I hope you enjoy your ramones. Sick cop.

>>10278744
what... is it like having to shout up at people all the time, manlet :)

Naaaah you're absolutely right, it's just that the shorts and tees are very long, high tops are all very high and jacket sleeves are crazy long. ricks not tall and he looks fantastic so I guess just athletic will do?

>>10278876
Sure athletic looks good with the tanks and skin tight tops but everyone bar fatties can pull the look off pretty well, if youre really skinny and tall some of the really tight cut jackets look dope,

Guess the athletic people get to wear tanks the best and skinnies the jackets

>>10277743
I'm gonna attempt an explanation as to why people get bashed for wearing fakes or H&M and Zara copies. The obvious point is the morality of copying the work of a designer who has been honing his skills for 20 years. The quality, drape, and the way it feels on you is another. but what bugs me the most is that it's trying to substitute something people love with something slightly off and pretendI got its the same thing. imagine you're in love with Cara and then end up going on a date with her but 2 minutes in, this other girl comes back and pretends she is her. you're not gonna be happy. add to that the anonimity of Internet and you understand why people shit on cheap fits..

>>10278954
Its like buying a Squier and saying my Fender is sick.

>>10277634
not really a huge fan of the b/w geos just cause they're pretty out played / over played or whatever

There's tonnes of other possibilities tho...
OG Dunks in b/w , full white / milk, black with white sole
Ramones in b/w or full white / milk
Both tech runners in all the different colour ways
Spring blades
socks

there are so many options dude, but you probably already knew that lol

>>10279004
these are so underrated. so versatile yet not black or white. Dijon Dan would like these.

>>10279012
My only issue is paying Rick prices for a canvas shoe

it's a very very thick canvas tho ;)
>inb4 for you

>>10279012
holy shit yea how did I forget about all the options with ramones, I love all the tan colours n shit

>>10279012
>Dijon Dan would like these
yh those are dope nuff love for the brown ricks
just copped a blistered lamb leather jacket in brown

>>10272385
Ok guys Dunks for $1000 or guidi back zips for 650?

Shit. Unless you're an obsessive collector or running archives I'd say Guidis. On the other hand you might regret living and never owning those sweet dunks when you had a chance.

>>10279111
Two entirely different shoes. You need to know if you want chunky sneakers or sleek boots.

>>10279111
Backzips for 650 is p. good deal imo, then again i paid retail. Dunks are cool but i always feel weird wearing white sneakers

>>10279004
Yeah i hear you and agree with the b/w geos.

I already have B/B ramones aswell, but thinking of copping b/w mainline soon.

Never been a massive fan of springblades or the techrunners, though they are growing on me.

Next cop is Mainline Ramones/Creeper Boots/Sockies

>>10272382
fuck Rick owens

>>10279173
Gladly :^)

guys what rick can be worn for semi formal occasions, need compatible footwear too

>>10279260
Geobaskets and a tie.

>>10273571

>400 EUR

I keep getting confused when I read euro amounts, because that would be worth $600 a few years ago... God, I love how your union has gone to shit.

>>10279260
Top down this is how I would do it.

Jersey longsleeve top
Blazer
Astaire pants
Creeper boots

>>10279279
>>10279260
Or some slim tapered pants and black/black ramone lows

damn these would look sick with pods

>>10279289
https://www.rickowens.eu/en/men/collections/sphinx

>>10279304
yeah look so dope with pods. Only thing stopping me copping is hold ups about quality

>>10279357
Yeah same, I'm not paying that much for shoes of inferior quality made in sweatshops. I'll probably wait and see how low they go in the sales.

>>10279111
I'd go for Guidi.

this with a blazer and creepers

>>10273571
does anyone else have geos that don't have such a bulbous toebox?

>>10279526
Yeah they're called dreamboxes.

>>10279623
look at the pic i posted...

>>10279526
>>10279623
kek

Really though I notice this aswell, but it depends on leather and model. I notice it most with this same model.

>>10279637

>>10279637
yeah i kinda wish mine weren't so flat

What are some other Rick essentials?
So far I have a tee, cotton pants and a pair of ramones.

summoning Dijon Dan
Post a fit bro

>buy longsleeve on Grailed
> "fits a true medium"
> try it on
> actually fits a size small

The fit is shit in comparison to all my other stuff - I basically have a long sleeve that I have to wear under my DS sweater because it looks so bad on its own.

>>10279853
llol tfw, i bought a shirt that was listed size medium but it was "one size" in reality

>>10279853
any of his shirts fit small though

single layer unstable LS actually stretch though

Is gud deal?

>>10279688
today's the day

>>10279934
its bretty good if you have a few things to wear it with - looks like very smart/casual rick so be warned it could look funny with geos and a tank

>>10280029
Is Dijon Dan the face of mustard?

Can I get a fit critique? I'm moving from wearing Tom Ford into Helmut and Rick. I tried on an outfit at Rick in SoHo and the pods + one of the thicker long sleeves looked sick, but wasn't completely sold on paying retail. Picked up a few pieces on grailed. Can you break down everything bad about these fits so I can try to correct them?

I'm 6ft 150, but I've been steadily dropping 1% BF per two weeks or so. Hoping to get to like 10% by the end of December.

http://imgur.com/a/Wpj6C

>>10280367

Dude, you look small already. Fucking lift weights or something, fuck. Don't buy into what these twins tell you - they're all emaciated teens with testosterone deficiencies.

Anyways, w2c sweater? Looks cool.

>>10280403
I'm starting a bulk when I hit about 12% BF. I want to get to about 175 at 9% by Dec '16 maybe less depending on how a bulk goes.

The grey sweat is Balmain. The hoodie is from Stone Brewery.

>>10280367
tie the ramones, cover them with the pants dont tuck them in

>>10280029
dijon daniel you've done it again

>>10280367
i agree with >>10280539 about the ramones. fits p gud only thing that looks strange is the pants

Quick, does anyone in LA know places where I can find Rick? Preferably small boutique type places, but anywhere is fine. I'm gonna be visiting in a few days for FYF fest.

>>10280029
DD lookin ripped from that all mustard diet

>>10281000
maxfield is the best place. I'm going to FYF too, see you there

>>10279012
those just look like faded black ramones

>>10280029
super nice

bravo rick what a piece of shit

>>10280164
>>10280548
>>10281096
>>10281166
c-cheers boys

>>10272382

Does anyone know of any online shops currently selling the one size tank tops in either black or gray?

>>10281667
rick owens official site has them I believe

>>10280367
not bad, i agree with the ramones though - tie them and cover them

>>10281727
Only seems to have brown in the iteration I'm looking for:

ahh yeah,

try looking through the stores on this http://www.fashionsauce.com/brands/rick-owens-stockists

I know its not a definitive guide but its pretty good

what a QT

>>10279274
lol, you have got no idea of economy, right?

>>10281764
Cheers I'll trawl through them now.

onesize DS tank in milk arrived, damn the neck whole is small


Nice piece though. Comfy as fuck

>>10281772
She is.

>>10281772

She's ruined by those clothes.

>>10282465
eh the shoes are trash but the rest is ok

where can i get replacement laces for my geos and dunks? i can't seem to find ones long enough

Looking for lacing advice here, the light laces are an off white that reminds me of the laces on b/w ramones. I think all three options (black/white/laceless) look nice.

>>10282984
White laces make them look tacky tbh, ditch laces and go without

>>10282984
Abysmal shoes to begin with but black laces are the best. No laces looks goofy and white laces looks mismatched.

>>10282984
I think the black laces look great in sawtooth :)

>>10283059
>>10282984

Island dunks are pretty good man, the b/b is a weak colourway. b/b looks good if its the reversed leather

>>10272385
I really want some dunks, but I have US11/EU44 feet. I'm scared they'll look even bigger than my Ramones. I'm also finna cop short tongue geos

>>10282984
do the black laces, but in the style of the white ones.

>>10283065

They will look bigger than your Ramones. If you're wearing the smallest size you can, then your body just man not be able to pull off the super oversized stuff without having a looser lower block. I think if you swapped out for cargos or drawstrings with a slightly oversized fit, they might work for you. Denim is going to make it worse.

>>10281238
Lol seriously what is this

>>10282443
Pictures

i like the way rick stuff looks but i can't pull it off without looking like an idiot.

>>10283446
>i can't pull it off without looking like an idiot.

You wont look like an idiot, if youre sacred to go full drapey goth ninja you can do a minimalism rick, just rick tops or denim/one of his jackets or something like that

>>10283271

>>10282984
why do people wear islands with jeans
looks like complete shit, even more when they are stacking
either go shorts or cropped trousers/sweats

>>10279111
Alright I'm gonna go with the Guidi's. Should I go with horse of donkey leather?

>>10283748
horse erreday

>>10280029
dijon dope

>>10281238
>>10283262
They're called poo-poo faux jean trousers from
a rare Rick show called "Hopeless Fanboy" (f/w06)

The leather is made from the ballsack of an albino alpaca and dyed black. (also available in shitstain mustard)

>>10283606
nice

>>10284336
W2C shit stained chaps?

>>10284415
grailed or make them yourself
very easy

alright so you guys totally trolled me. you guys always said to size down on rick bottoms so i did and these cropped pants fit too small all around... $200 down the drain , thanks fah

>>10284453

Do they have an elastic waistband?

>>10284453
>what is reselling

>what is getting information from only one source

>what is trying on before you buy

>what is love

>>10284459
yeah theyre these http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/kind-u/item/571715000519/?s-id=borderless_browsehist_en

the material is really thin too, i can only imagine how skin tight they would be if the fabric was heavy denim instead...

>>10284461
i cant try them on, no stores carry rick near me, i can resell yeah but its a bummer cause that money is gone for the time being.

I came home and saw that my ssense package came in. I ordered a rick Owens Brown Cotton New Turtleneck. I wore it and loved it. I went to take a shit in the rest room and I didn't realize how long the shirt was. I ended up getting shit on it. I want to know the best way to get it out.

>>10284520
what the fuck did i just read

Can someone tell me how the pants fit? true to size? i measure 31.5 do you think a 31 will fit me

>>10284541
safe
mine fit about half size big

>>10284453
>>10284472
Your supposed to size down on nearly all ricks elastics. Next time post these pants in the thread to get more detailed info on the fit.

>>10284547
i have helmut lang jeans that were 32 but the thing said the actual waist was 31.5 but when it came in the mail the fucking waist was like 33

>>10284536
He stained his turtleneck and wants to know how to wash it/get rid of the stain

>>10284520
I'm also interested

>>10284548
>>10284472

I have a Rick mainline elastic with the same cut and it fits TTS. Every DRKSHDW elastic piece I own fit one size large.

dont die yet goddamn

Who says to size down? I wear TTS most elastics, I even have some skirted pods sized up and it looks good, just have to tie it

How often do used poplin pods come up? I can't even find any new

>>10284520
It's cotton, wash it on low

how do you guys rick in the blazing sun
rock a one size tank and pods and gladiator sandals?

>>10277704
there isnt even a single piece by rick in this picture

>just moved to a country that has no Rick
>gonna be here for a while
> all my Rick is black
>realize I want to be more like Dijon Dan
>customs here are 60% so can't even order

>>10286407
ouch

go on holidays specifically to buy rick :^

>>10286407
Get a friend to send them as a gift to avoid import VAT.

>>10286407
What country are you in that has 60% customs?
Here I was thinking New Zealand's customs at 25% were a nuisance.

where's a good place online to cop legit rick owens? in dire need bros

>>10286910
Grailed is probably your best bet

>>10286910
You mean second hand or new?

>>10286974
Either or, prolly new

>>10287184
There are hundreds of retailers that sell rick

Can I just make a new thread? Rick generals are always painfully slow past 270

>>10287256
yes

New Thread. Also If you have og pics and you don't post them ITT you deserve to die
