Rick Owens

[drizzly]

I think all, or most, of the leather rick uses in his jackets is chrome tanned. This will almost always result in the 'flesh', or reverse, side being similarly coloured to the 'skin' side.

There are cases where the colours aren't as closely matched, depending on the quality and tanning process, where you might see a blue-ish tint to the reverse side for example.

Thanks based on what i just read about it, it seems that the leather is pretty much dyed through.

Those scarves are great. DAZED also used one in an editorial, but I can't find it online...

For me it's just the perfect jacket to wear when a blazer is too formal and leather is too informal. You can pair them with almost anything.

Since I read this I've been looking at RO flight bombers for the first time really. Now I want one.

By the way, I predict that after these few posts, next season we will see bombers from 10seisotto, avant toi, and 5,000 other goth ninja imitation brands. You heard it here first.

To some degree its already happened. I've seen a few questionable celebrities wearing what looked like Rick and thought it was all over.
However on closer inspection they were by those dark celebrity endorsed/I'm friends with a celebrity brands.

This kinda thing always happens...

Yeah bombers are coming

[Ivans On High]

Topshop have a bomber called the 'Kanye Bomber'. I wonder who's version Yeezy was wearing...

It's not hard to see why people would emulate rick's version. I mean look at it:

[BodyDouble]

Technically, Yeezy's been wearing the Fear Of God and Haider Ackermann Bomber. From Rick Lately he's only worn the parka and some shorts, but I don't think he's worn a flight bomber from Rick since maybe 2011.

I'm embarrassed to even know this.
