    My ramones are pretty old as they have the D-ring and don't have this, though I'm not positive what season they're from.

      Ask for pictures of the DRKSHDW labels and the rest of the tags. You can also call up a Rick Owens store, I imagine, and they can check the ID number on the tags.

          Rick Owens Jumper A/W 13/15 PLYNTH - Does this look genuine? I believe it to be.

          Hi all. First time posting here. I buy and sell regularly on eBay. The Rick Owens Jumper A/W 13/15 PLYNTH in the pictures is a recently sold item which the buyer claims is not genuine. He cites that the fabric is of poor quality. The tag like many Rick Owens states that imperfections are not to be considered defects. There is some noticeable unevenness at the bottom pictured perhaps this is from washing, though it is nearly new. Other than this I have no reason to doubt its genuine I have over 1300 positive feedback on eBay to date. What do you guys think given the pictures?

But maybe I am wrong, because it was stored in the wrong way for a longer time and the imperfections are maybe on purpose. The fabric gets a bit more unregular and crinkled in the lower end (waist). The double seam fold gets also more contracted in the lower end. And some edges are pretty fuzzy.
            Please find following the link to the ebay auction also. Thanks in advance.
            What looks off is the manufacture tag is stitched into the garment. On every Rick piece I own from mainline it's stitched onto a small piece of fabric ribbon and then stitched into the seam so it's easily removed. I can't say that for every piece, but for every piece I own for sure.

                  I think that is not entirely true. I have owned legit Rick pieces with the tag stitched into the seam, mostly old seasons. Though I do not know if they have change it absolutely for new seasons.

                      I think they just increased the image contrast to make them look a bit odd... my main issue with them is how collapsed the heel cup is. That alone would make me avoid them.

                        Don't buy them, no matter how cheap they turn out to be. They are 100% legit (in fact rest assured it's very hard to come by fake CCPs, although some Chinese experts made a batch of derbies some while ago, and was way too cheesy not to be told as fake, now they are making cheesy drips (and I saw some in-development workshop photos of their u-sole tornados), the drips are getting better though), but just not worth any. Soles were badly worn out and then added with some rubber protectors, the right shoe's lace isn't original. And they came from an earlier collection than the nowadays popular 2010 (onwards) collection.

                            Not to say you should buy the derbies, but most of CCP's best work was pre-2010. 2010 is "nowadays popular" since it is the last but mainly because it has been produced for years so there is a lot more of it.

                              Maybe best work but certainly not best clothes

                              Ah the golden age of human hair ties and $4,000 jackets designed to grow mushrooms.

                                It seems to me that the rubber outsole is original because it is sewed on the derby. Isn't it?
