    he's not the first one. one of them is at McQueen, another one is at TB. People will run from there first chance they get. Who the fuck wants to work on commission only?

          went to the store today. the stock should make any RO fan happy - standard fair but in more color variations, which is good. The womens jackets were the highlight - really beautiful (at least on the rack).



          Not sure what to make of the space itself - I need to digest it. I like the high ceilings and the idea of the bare space, but because the building itself is new, the interior structure lacked details (wooden floors, circular columns) that make Soho spaces (thinking Yohji and IF) more inviting. Rick's furniture (a couple of chairs) softened the barren effect, which I liked.



          There was a rentboy looking fellow with a Marc Jacobs shopping bag trying on lots of stuff. [72]

                Visited the store yesterday, SAs seem great as has already been said. I love the space, it was cool to see the Rick furniture in there and I'm excited to see the fog wall in person once its up and running. Pretty awesome seeing that much RO in one place at one time, I really love the giant hooded bomber but wish it were done in moleskin like it originally was for exploder.



                Have to be honest, the prices threw me for a bit of a loop. Still, it's nice to have access to this stuff so close to home and know that if you have to have something, you can find a way to make it happen.

                  i find it funny now that i balk at spending 3 grand on a 50 year old piece of holy grail furniture i've wanted for ten years but accept the fact that i have to pay more than that for a leather jacket. clothes are crack, and its gonna get worse.

                    I'm the same way. It is not a good thing.

                      After seeing the heavy influence of Doc Martins in the current seasons boots, I thought you guys might find these interesting. Rick's take on the original 1460 for Doc Martin.





                      "Some of the themes I keep going back to are the insulation, withdrawal and fierce idealistic rebellion of youth. And sometimes a peaceful alienation. These are things I see on the faces of the nomad street kids on Hollywood boulevard every day...wearing their ancient Doc Martens..."

                        pretty interesting as an object... where'd you get the photo? Is this something that he's planning on producing or is this just an original pair of docs taped up?

                          Re: Rick Owens

                          Doc Marten asked a bunch of designers to rethink the classic 1460. I think it will remain as merely just an object. It appears to be a mix to tape and latex, but interesting conceptually. It would be nice to see something like it put into production, even if it were just an object.
