Rick Owens FW13 Men

[mrbeuys]

Well, you can't wear it in August :-) This is a shearling top and I immediately thought of you when I saw it. You are the man to pull it off.

you might be right about that actually... and I will of course get the boots as well. My brain's going to make them pretty by then

[Faust]

Come to think of it, the entire outfit is awesome. Minus the sole of the boots.

[mrbeuys]

Who says that's a problem?
And it will be priced closer to 12k, 65k buys you a big throw.

[Shucks]

lemme rent it for a weekend?

i'm too stoked about spring to muster up much excitement for fall this time, but fuck yeah ice-climbing boots and big roomy jackets. good wide sleeves too - nice cut. and those wrapped shoulders appeal to the BDSM side of me.

I wonder what everyone would think if let's say RAF presented those boots. Just this.

Beuys said it right:

Raf can send anything down the runway and people will still find nice things to say.

I am afraid this applies to Rick also.

A little late but well done Faust on the style.com piece.
Great to see you getting the recognition you so thoroughly deserve.
And props to Tim for the interview.

Damn.. I really quite by this collection. If only everything was in Black and some grey/white, it would look much better though. I thought it was going downhill for the last couple of years now.
Likes:
The boots are fucking awesome! Really like the strap. Adds to the futuristic vibe. Sole won't wear off quite as fast now :) Big hoodies are cool, and the shearing coat is the best leather in the collection from what I could see. Stiff fabrics for the stand up funnel necks are great as well. Also all trousers are great and some of the gloves too

Dislikes:
The Ikea sheepskin coat though is really awful and don't dig the arm constriction things and the brown colors are shit.

Favorite looks for me. Most favored from top to bottom:
1
2
3
4
5
6
And only if this was nonprint, monochrome palette:
so much better all black

Weird to see sleeves that actually allow for circulation...

i just picture the entire collection with the regular ro combat boots. way better imo

[Patroklus]

can't climb a mountain in regular ro boots, collection wouldn't have synergy imo

[cjbreed]

for many of the looks you need the giant boot to balance out the giant shapes of the jackets/outerwear. so maybe with the sole hacked off you can still get the weight you need. but still, i just can't get behind those boots. i might as well throw on my snowboarding boots. for me i'd rather wear the flat sole combats

[Patroklus]

might look cool, post a waywt

I'm not sure if the boots (esp the tan ones) go well with the collection, but they're hilarious and awesome. It's like rick was on acid and watching a lot of anime so he decided he wanted to design a pair of timberlands for some weird vision of neo tokyo or something. I really want a pair but I doubt I'd ever wear the tan ones.

money on pony hair coming out in a regular fabrication and selling out before sales hit
