Anyone here good at identifying Rick Owens pieces by product code? Specifically I want a Stooges leather jacket, I found one with RU 5764 / LP. I know the material is hammered lamb from the LP, but I'm curious as to which season this particular model is from. I'm thinking SS09 Strutter but I'm getting conflicting results.

Anyone have any info on how Asos.com clothes are made? I know on the website they proclaim it's all ethical, has any independent researcher released any info though?

I want to share a problem regarding the brown buttons from Rick Owens Limo and Naska collections.
Has anyone encountered similar problem: The brown color dye came off with moist (eg. sweaty/wet hands) and stained your hands/other light colored items?
Personally I have a few items from these 2 seasons and I never aware of this problem as I nearly always wear those items with dark colored clothings. But this afternoon, I wore a pearl colored tee with the draped swing shorts from Naska, and later this evening I noticed that the brown buttons from the pants are leaving brown stains on the T shirt which I initially thought was chocolate marks.
So I tested out the brown buttons from my other items by placing damp pieces of tissue paper on the buttons and I observed that the brown dye comes off quite easily (without rubbing) and stained the tissue papers.
Is there any way to 'fix ' the color on those buttons? Or should I just replace the buttons with normal plastic ones? What do you guys think about this?
Also, would anyone of you expect something like this to happen on expensive designer items? I can accept this to happen with dark denims or some leather goods, but certainly this really shouldn't be happening with the buttons.Last edited by whtnnk986; 08-28-2013, 12:19 PM.

Depends on which RO blazer. typically Julius one is a tad shorter if we're comparing both in the most similar style. and definitely skinnier on the body part, and a bit slimmer in sleeves.
regarding the 2 julius blazer,
I dont own any of those. I own one skirted blazer from FW2012,
anyway fabric aside,
the 437Jam1, is for winter, and it is the version with skirt companion, therefore it will be cut a little roomier for both layering in winter and the long silhouette.
while the 417Jam3, should fit skinnier considering the fabric and fit.
but probably ask someone who own them, for double check.still trapped in my juvenile state

minhcu2805, I am a size 44IT and I own 417JAM1 (SS13) in a size 1. The jacket fits me a lot like the image you shared, perfectly slim. The sleeves are even more skinny than those on Taralis blazers (which are already quite narrow), and they are elegantly long.
I wouldn't worry about the construction of a Julius blazer. Mine is fully canvassed and made with beautiful fabrics. If you are looking for a skinny blazer, I would certainly choose Julius over Rick Owens.
Another bit of information which I can offer, is to recommend 437JAM7. This one is more of a casual/distressed blazer, but it is incredibly slim. I had the pleasure of trying it on at The Archive in SF, and you can find it here: http://archivesf.com/archivesf_item/...l-long-blazer/
Hopefully this helps!

this may seem like a dumb question but what are the limitation on special/custom orders of previous CCP leather jackets (fencing, scar stitch, overlock)? for instance, if i wanted to get the FW06 overlock, would it be possible to obtain the same leather and construction that was used for models as old as that?
