They work well with the bomber-shorts-tights look. They also look different in real life as the preview shown is in a small size. Pic shows a UK 10 / EU44 2/3 US 10.5 fits slightly larger than US 10.5 Vans.

I thought these looked like a joke at first but they've grown on me, would be nice for summer fits

Which is best?

>> No.8002771

So I could cop the full-leather version of these for about $500.

How do they size compared to Ramones?

Actually how do they size compared to the recent Raf Velcros or Silent Saturs/Buckled? Since Rick's isn't the most consistent.

you can buy somewhere else other than the official rick store.

i think full leather looks best, and the textile/leather combination isn't much cheaper anyway. the textile/leather models are actually constructed a bit different on the inside that you can't see on pictures. there's an additional layer of textile inside the shoe that's slightly elastic. makes them more comfortable and probably better for athletic purposes if you'd do that.

I'm split between all-black leather or black and white leather.
Black and white seems more RO to me, similar to the geobasket but still very unique.

If I'm putting down £400+ on a shoe I'd like it to stand out quite a lot, but full black would be easier to make fits out of I think.

yes. in this case it's definitely true. most retailers really doesn't do that. if anything they won't list the remaining amount if it's more than 1 or 2.
farfetch isn't a single retailer btw, rather it's a marketplace of many smaller boutiques that doesn't have their own site.

I've got all of the basics nailed down and I'm moving to more 'up there' designers.
It'd be my first and probably only Rick piece I'd ever buy, considering his outwear and pants are too expensive.

I might pass on these though, the black don't stand out enough given the price, so I'll probably go for black/white geobaskets (black back) instead.

Unless Rick will have some more new shoes coming out soon?
