Does anybody know which Rick leather "LMV" is?
All I could find is "calf", but this one (right) looks thicker than the regular calf (left).
Any help is appreciated.

I honestly think it's the same shoe, but I could be wrong. They are amazing! I want.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

I think the leather on the right ones looks a tad thicker and sturdier.
EDIT:
Left one’s LCW (heavy calf)
right one’s LMV (???)Last edited by Nickefuge; 07-11-2019, 10:45 AM."The only rule is don't be boring and dress cute wherever you go. Life is too short to blend in."

Has anyone had a chance to try on the larry "Kiss" boots yet? If so - thoughts?
Was at the palais royal shop last month and they had only received the womens at that point, but the sa said they had tried on the mens in the showroom and were super comfortable.
Still trying to determine if this is a must have that i'll covet, or just me fantasizing about being a rockstar knowing i'll never wear them in public.

ahn: I keep meaning to respond, to keep your eloquent, if painful thoughts from dissipating into the internet either.I'll take this over-caffeinated moment to say something rather than wait for getting my thoughts together to do your thoughts justice.
First, I still remember your passionate, clear comments about your response to Rick Owens. Never got around to acknowledging that.
Since I try to stay away from too much internet activity, I felt my shared exhaustion with you was based on two slightly different but linked situations. I've found time's passage ( different or a better spin on getting older), if lived consciously, brings with it an understanding of how one acts in the world, a grasp, a familiarity that initial passion ignores or hasn't seen yet.
Getting excited about clothing is a relationship. My above comments could be a romantic interest or infatuation with a person and an excitement, love of something can follow the same arc as with a person. "Familiarity brings contempt" is a bit strong but all of the online possibilities of interaction certainly allow one to do their best to turn that embrace into a strangle hold and then wonder why they've ended up with something lifeless in their arms. (Side note: that is why I hate to see something become popular- on the heels of popularity is fatigue and dismissal. Far better to stay just below the radar.)
Your response and understanding of the players is being recognized more and more as the cause of unhappiness in people who initially used all these formats as ways of connection and expression. Media detox seems like a good start and what better way to heal than in the comforting folds of black? Years ago, YY beautifully talked about his voluminous clothing was about protection and black wasn't about nothing, but about everything. It seems to me, if you turn on the light in your closet, you may find friends welcoming you :-)
OK, this playful romp has turned into a bit of a mess, it's 4:45am and all this thinking has made me lose my buzz . Easier to reply to attacks, questions than put on my hip waders or HIP waders and stride back into this stream of consciousness or steaming pile of consciousness.

My best bet would be to size down half a size if you can.
