Better wait for the end of season sale, you just missed the last one.
Connor Johnson
remember the toecap looks very big from the front
i do love this picture too though, has made me want low ramones for the longest time
Asher Sanchez
Yeah, I noticed that. A bunch of stuff seemed crazy cheap online but non of it was in my size.
Any idea what material the picture is though?
I find it weird that there aren't more generic shoes like this. Converse look really busy, covered in logos and stitching. If there was something remotely similar for less I'd consider it.
Carter Lewis
The shoes in the picture are from Rick Owens mainline, not the DRKSHDW diffusion brand. Rick Owens Ramones are leather, Nylon/Canvas/whatever else is most likely DRKSHDW.
I have a pair of Converse from a few years ago that look VAGUELY like Ramones but way worse leather. I got them because I was new to Veeky Forums and in love with Tricky Ricky. I might finally wear them soon. Actually I'm going to try to remove the stupid branding on the side right now.
Brayden Fisher
be careful when buying these, they can legit look like clown shoes because they are a bit bulky.
Camden Stewart
Exactly the same here. Also I really dig the pants.
I need pants like these in my life. Where the fuck do I get em
Justin Green
I did it, I removed the logo and changed the laces I'm not going to lie lads, this is the most ashamed I've been in quite a while. Converse are from 2013. The pants are a wool/linen blend from wings+horns.
I forget their name but they've been posted a ton of times. I think they're $200. Maybe you can reverse image search and try to find them through there. Good luck!
Brandon Long
any wool trousers tapered and hemmed
Chase Cox
I did a whileback but I think no one knew, I'll try search again.ty
I've heard this alot, but I haven't found a place that sells similar looking ones or good ones at a £100 and under price range
Jacob Kelly
other than the colours, they look nothing like ramones silhouette is the key (or lots of money)
William Baker
I love my lows. Pick them up for sure
Aaron Rogers
Really? The material looks almost matte and thinner than the leather.
Luis Torres
Rick Owen's is plagued with people who either think he's all about the clunky ass geos, dickflaps, mastodon trousers, and other weird shit. And hardcore fans think if that's not what you're wearing from rick, then you're some sort of poser.
Rick makes: Plain tees, Berlin/Torrence/Detroit Jeans, Boat Shoes/Mastodon Sneakers, Crew Patch Jumpers, and makes a plethora of nice accessories such as Naska Socks, Wallets, etc.
Is it worth it? That's up to you.
Not what you asked, but I figured I'd give you some insight onto Rick so you're not blinded by fanboys and normies
Justin Williams
If you're size 11+ ricks will look disgustingly disproportionate. I'd also suggest sizing down half a size so they fit snug and the toebox ain't as exaggerated as intended
Bentley Sanders
Every time I see a rick owens thread, I always go who would be dumb enough to buy his stuff. Then I see this video and remember.
Isaiah Perry
fact only fashion victims buy and wear his footwear
Brody Williams
I'm heavily inclined to agree despite being a ricky fanboy, but not every shoe he makes is shit. Just...most of them
these come in black as well, and yes, they're expensive as dick (Thanks labor, name branding, capitalism, and exclusivity) they do look wearable compared to geos or oversized ramones.
Levi Wood
>mfw wear ricks with straight cut jeans and thrifted tshirts
what core am i
Isaac Walker
lame nigga core
Christopher Morgan
tbqh a lot of rick's shit is obnoxious and for fashion victims but his basics are pretty good and the ramone low's are actually a pretty good shoe too. if you wear more than one rick piece in an outfit you should consider self harm, or probably already have
Jaxon Mitchell
i would get high top R A M O N E S
Brayden Peterson
This is what puts me off. I moved to LA last year and the people I see them on are squat chinless Chinese guys and chubby Jewish teens. I really appreciate Rick Owens for his story, his statements, his integrity, his sincerity, his humor, and his general attitude as a designer. I like to wear clothes that reflect values I understand, so I want his clothes. But for me, a lot of it doesn't really fit.
Like you've pointed out though, and as I've discovered, there is a handful of very wearable items.

how to pull off ramones and not look like the from the back guy
>dont be a manlet >understand proportions
Angel Evans
hi avery
Christopher Murphy
people will tell you to go half a size down but in my experience, sometimes a full size down is better. i recommend that you go to a physical store and try on a pair first to get your bearings and then make your decision from there.
Adam Cooper
I plan on dropping into the La Brea store. But honestly I think I'll wait until sale time. I saw the end of the recent one and they're like 70% off. I'm not into it enough to spend $1000 in a low sneaker.
Charles Williams
If you have a local dealer, you should try them on. They're got pretty fucked up dimensions like said.
Hunter Morgan
so w2c jacket for dude on the right I really like jackets that have that wrist design
Charles Lewis
this is the only good rick fit I've ever seen
Gabriel Bell
That's the correct way to wear ramones
As less of a meme as possible
Julian Collins
YOU HAVE TO GO BACK
Luke Gray
i like this fit i will now buy ray romanos ty for inspo
Ian Mitchell
which ricks tho
Jose Richardson
hahah this looks even uglier than converse. Seriously what the fuck.
Alexander Morris
it is converse. dude just mangled them up. and his feet are small or wide or something? and they look like shit
Nathaniel Evans
>*heavy breathing* M-muh sekrit club
Jack James
Wtf Book.
Austin Harris
Why not just get Chucks? especially 70s repro chucks, pretty much exactly the same + it's less clownish looking, toecap looks better, 1/4 price and people won't ask why you've got fake Chucks.
Man it sure sucks being on of the very few to be too intelligent to fall for jewish tricks on Veeky Forums
Blake Mitchell
COS
Carson Phillips
look up "undercover television jacket" or "undercover marquee moon jacket"
Adrian Martinez
Converse are really busy despite somehow being known as a 'minimal' shoe. >clownish looking That's the whole point, numbnuts. Rick is all about messing around with proportions.
Jayden Ramirez
This is what surprises me about all of this. Why do you have to spend more and seek out high end designers to get less? A $70 pair of Converse is a vomit pile of stitching and logos and materials and crap.
Clown shoe version with minimal colors.....$800
Aiden Jenkins
looks worse now
Thomas Turner
Problem with Rick is that in the end all of his fits you will wear are boring. It's same stuff rotating with nobody actually wearing some interesting pieces from him. Dunno about you, but I like Raf more because he at least does something more or less new each season instead of bringing out Mollino jacket and some level tees with pods over and over again.
Jayden Carter
>Looks like you can mix his shoes into normal outfits. You do realize that most things rick makes are normal as fuck
Grayson Torres
>Dunno about you, but I like Raf more because he at least does something more or less new each season instead of bringing out Mollino jacket and some level tees with pods over and over again.
Do you watch Rick's shows at all? He's constantly changing the wardrobe.
His tees and pods are Forever for him -- same with staples like the Mollino and Bauhaus. Not his fault those are what sell the mostl most people aren't willing to really branch out with his stuff, though, I would agree with that.
I really get tired of seeing Pods. Geos/Ramones, Double-layer outfits over and over and over.
Camden Allen
wearing your pants like a rice farmer
Isaiah Butler
booky ur such a qt
Evan Gray
Shouldn't buy them if you wear anything larger than a us9.5 imo. Proportions are already exaggerated and if you have large feet then they are going to be over the top.
Angel Wood
incotex
Grayson Morgan
since nobody actually responded im p sure these are mainline leather, but the nylons are cool too. looking at them for highs, not a huge fan of the leather hightops but theyre definitely my favorite for the low
also who has the rog discord link
Carter Barnes
...
Jackson Rodriguez
theyre canvas and not mainline
Carter Cox
waxed canvas? looks too rough to be nylon, but they definitely arent regular canvas
Leo Bell
yup
Luke Carter
get back in the discord, jacob.
Evan Allen
>Looks like you can mix his shoes into normal outfits. These are actually quite hard to pull off
Gavin Cox
this is key to op. sounds decent bc youre not going full out memeninja but you should be wearing low tops
Nathaniel Rodriguez
i dont understand. and wouldn't it be jakob?
Cooper Wright
Why's that?
Elijah Smith
Book you're the cutest anime character
Nathan Ward
There are people who actually wear Rick Owens? I thought that was kinda like a Veeky Forums inside joke
