With several seasons under their belts, the partnership between Owens and adidas seems second nature. But, even with the resounding success of Owens’ work with adidas, it is official that the partnership is coming to a close. While the three stripes and Owens have enjoyed working together across several collections, Owens will be ending its work with adidas following the Fall/Winter 2017 season. Instead, as seen on the men's Spring/Summer 2018 runway, Rick Owens has begun a new footwear collaboration series with Hood Rubber.

uhh okay?
why are you telling me this? i don't care
Tyler Jenkins
imagine going on a board pertaining to a topic you dont care about, clicking a thread about a topic you dont care about, then proceeding to take the time to make a post about how much you dont care about the topic
Nathan Sanders
Too bad. The collaboration really produced some nice models like the techrunners and the mastodons. Don't really like the vibe or aesthetic of Hood Rubber but I guess it fits to Rick his vision.
Dominic Ross
they have another sock model that looks pretty good
Ryan Jackson
eh, i think that they did some cool stuff together but also it ran its course. it's a bummer but i'm looking forward to whatever ol ricky does next
John Sullivan
>one of the rare times actual fashion (or at least something similar) is discussed shakin my damn head
Ayden Hill
Good riddance, the only good model to come out of this partnership was the tech runner.
Noah Watson
Rick is a meme. Now that Adidas is the coolest brand in the world they can't be bothered to be seen with such jokesters.
Aaron Gutierrez
Can anybody fix up a "My friendship with Rick ended. Now Yohji is my new bestfriend" pics?
Jace Price
Mastodons are nice.
Nathaniel Sanders
they were once, indeed, unfortunately they're extinct
Matthew Ortiz
Never heard of Hood Rubber, interested to see what will come out of this.
Dylan Moore
Im sad they didn't do more versions of the angular tech runner, those were cool as hell.
Matthew Price
fuck off
Tyler Ward
:3
Lucas Taylor
hahaha top shitpost.

Rick Owens x UNIQLO 2018 cap this
Camden Cox
Watch the board split at the seams
Brody Reyes
The new sock Land Runners look really good, but I'll still expect great footwear from Rick.
Ethan Reyes
Sad because it actually provides interesting models. Now Raf should really stop mixing colors for autism shoes. There's white Rafstans and one good colorway for Memeweegos each season at best. Rest of it is fuckin trash.
Jaxson James
fuckin perfect
Jayden Hernandez
Hood runners look odd, they look like those cheap off brand leather shoes you buy in those tacky fashion magazines, the design really reminds me of exactly that, but some of the designs actually do look pretty high end and high quality, I would rather see ricky make his own shoe's and or keep working with adidas, his own shoes are usually very unique and interesting, I doubt I would actually buy them as a much as I would with his more down to earth adidas designs.. eh.
Aaron Adams
Rick is releasing these in September - updated Mastodon Pros without the branding.
Logan Watson
>Hood Rubber Sounds like a black porn site
and the Mastodon
Jack Hughes
Glad Rick saw how normie Adidas is now
Brandon Jenkins
I've been waiting for this all my life
Cooper Carter
Rick needs access to leathers for his nice shit and normie sjws at Adidas want to move to full synthetics.
>inb4 some retarded shit about drksdw line being vegan
Looking at Hood Rubber's website, they've got some decent silhouettes and aren't afraid of using leather. This is a good move. Can't wait to buy the first release.
Isaiah Ortiz
bump
Juan Martin
Now I want Raf and Adidas to split
Ethan Morris
just looked at hood rubbers store, rick would make a great partner to tinker with these kinds of silhouettes.
damn shame im a poorfag
Benjamin Baker
Hoodrubber stuff already looks like a redwing x uniqlo collab. Also, expecting all this new collab to be lunarcore moonboots and nothing interesting
