It was the soft buttery LS lamb leather, in a perfect weight, with it's smooth refined natural texture that attracted me when I saw it in Tokyo. Thinking it would be the same, and at a much more competitive price, I ordered from Luisa, only to receive what I would consider a vastly inferior and "ugly" piece, no fault of the retailer of course, just my bad luck.
The one on LVR(and the corner) is hammered lamb
Are you 100% sure the one you want isn't oiled calf? which is smooth and 'buttery soft'.....and also more expensive. Both versions out this season.
I never seen 2 of the same jacket(same leather/code) from RO being offered at different prices because of the grade of leather either.

The High Neck Intarsia (Black) on LVR is the LS lamb, not the hammered lamb.
It's RU6761/LS. I checked with them before placing the order, I checked when it was delivered, and just before returning it, yes, I checked it again...it is the LS lamb.
I've handled both the oiled calf and the LS lamb, both current season...it was the LS lamb I wanted, positive.
It wasn't me who suggested that any differences in pricing were due to the grade of the leather (same leather code). I never believed this to be the case, and still do not.
Btw, premierminister, the leather from Apartment than you claimed to be the LS lamb costing €1950, is actually the Oiled Calf. That explains its higher price.
Y did you ask LVR about the leather characteristics of the other jackets they had in stock in the same size? might have been worthwhile given the price difference compared to other stores..
"AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."

What exactly does LS stand for?
I enquired about the jacket before they had pictures of it, they said 'we are currently unable to provide you with photos of this jacket in Black. It is lambskin intarsia, stone wash treatment, not waxed.' so I assumed it was the hammered one.

They say otherwise:
'thank you very much for getting in contact with us. concerning the RICK OWENS, INTARSIA LEATHER JACKET, i have to tell you that we only carried the non oiled calf leather version, and it is almost sold out, remaining only on in size small.'

Thats right. Today Apartment apologized for the wrong information they gave me by email.
I hope the oiled calf is not the same "quality" as it was last year. I bought a GeoJkt in oiled calf and was VERY disappointed. The leather looked like synthetic.
Fuck you and your viewpoint, I hate this depoliticized environment where every opinion should be respected, no matter how moronic. My avatar was chosen just for you, die in a ditch fucker.
