Holy shit, those jeans are amazing.

How do I make my own?

"background on this is that after less than six months and only very light useage (maybe 20 days total), the zipper on a pair of rick sneaks jams COMPLETELY and I have to use force to get them off my foot. after examining them more closely, I see that the fabric of the zipper has been stretching/tearing over time as the zipper was placed when the shoe was produced, and finally it broke completely because the zipper teeth did not align.

in my opinion, a production issue and shoes should not break in this way after such a short time - even considering it is rick and the "fucked-up" aesthetic philosophy. suddenly now I can't use them at all...."

"6 months is the life expectancy of a $1000 pair of sneakers? I'd like to think it's a little longer than that."

"I think the real lesson here is stop buying rick shoes!"

"if we leave the unstable cotton out of it then i think the most egregious offender is the shoes. we pay for the look, and i am willing to pay $1k+ for a shoe, but damn shouldn't i expect them to last at least as long as a $35 pair of canvas chuck taylors? without multiple trips to the cobbler. (i have a pair now that i love. but even so, there are obvious shortcomings)"

"Your point makes sense, but unfortunately that’s not the way it is. Sometimes a designer has to sacrifice one thing to gain on another. Ricks trainers are a great example. Because he wants an exaggerated form, there are on existing lasts or presidents set which factories can work from. This coupled with the whole scale thing that we already discussed makes life very difficult. So, in this case you are paying not for the name, or the quality, but for the design/form! My opinion is that Rick chose to sacrifice the quality for the form and one day it may well pay off, but first he must address the production issues, otherwise, you say it will dent his image!"

"bottom layer of crepe sole coming off side zips after 10 wearings. crazy glue worked for me, but it shouldn't have to."

>If you had a guy who was following you around all day telling you things that made you feel bad, what would you do? You'd tell him to fuck off.
You know what dude? That's pretty solid. Right on.
