>Rick Owens Sneakers
They are disgusting and clumsy looking; they are repulsive and unelegant, like their wearers. Pic related
>>11351584
I agree wholeheartedly bruh. To me, they look like Converse tried to make clown shoes.
>>11351584
The main issue with Rick, especially here, is that people who can't really afford it try to pull off the look
So you end up with this gawky teenager wearing a single Rick piece along with a bunch of stuff he got at the mall, and he's short and has a bad body and everything just feels bad
no they are gud
I'm skinny fat and wear super skinny jeans
Idgaf desu
>>11351601
Why does /fa/ cum all over them?
>>11351609
how it that gud?
>>11351607
Yes, true in part, but the over all design is just clumsy
>>11351609
This dude is probably mildly autistic and has either acne or really smelly breath.
>>11351607
Even Rick himself looks like shit
I honestly think these clothes are designed that way as a joke to see if anyone would actually buy it. The joke worked too well though, and now they can't stop.
>>11351671
Ayy lmao exacts my thought

Isn't facile projection what fashion is predicated on? You wear something because of the connotation it manifests to others; therefore, viewer must project a shallow opinion.
>>11351609
They are an obvious Vans ripoff
undercuts don't deserve the hate they get around here
>my fucking great grandfather probably rocked an undercut
literally nothing wrong with classic cuts.
I wanna dress just like Kanye
>>11351609
that looks like total shit
not even kidding
>>11351612
because /fa/ knows nothing about looking good.
"Fragrance" as perfume and an ingredient in nearly all personal care products should be outlawed because it makes a significant amount of the population really sick - including me.
>>11352930
It makes you sick? For how long?
>>11352129
The more conservative cuts will be timeless, I agree
>>11352171
There are a few people on here that know their shit
>>11351601
Isn't that the point of the shoes? kooky exaggerated proportions?
rick shoes are indeed ugly as shit.
also expensive =/= fashionable. that seems to be a huge /fa/ misconception

I said it's the point of the shoes, not that they look good, or that anyone was being ironic.
Also '$500<' doesn't mean more than $500, just so you know, kiddo. If you wanted to say that, it'd be >$500
>>11351584
Guys like that haven't worn Rick in nearly half a decade
The people that wear Rick today are kanye west fans or south east Asian teens buying their clothing second hamd

OP here, and agreed. Pic related isn't that bad at all, I was just being facetious. I do have a massive dislike for the people you just described.
>>11354420
Yeah I used to wear the Rick Owens silk blend long sleeves instead of James perse... because Rick was cheap on gilt.
After I was done with it
Nearly everyone I sold to had the last name nyguen or however it's spelled
About 20 different people 16 of them southeast Asian
And wrote like they were young.
It's a fad amongst the undesirable minorities today
People just get angry when they hear that because they think it's racism bit if you want to blend in with niggers and Koreans all day acting hood then go ahead
>>11354452
James perse is so much better man. I have both and regret spending 230 on some fucking l/s tee
> it's a rick hate thread in disguise
Black shoes can look fine with a brown suit as long as there is not too much contrast.
Button up shirts under sweaters looks stupid and too uptight/uncomfortable
You can look really good just buying stuff from cheap places at the mall. Money cannot buy good visual sensibility.
Vans are fine. At least get a decent colorway. Not the super normalfag ones that are black with white stitching and outsole. At least get a decent colorway.

Dick Owens' cloths are good, just his shoes make me cringe.

I enjoy the fact that people wear slim or skinny fitting joggers more now, as they're comfy as fuck and I think they looks nice with good shoes and a nice jumper.

>"Fragrance" as perfume and an ingredient in nearly all personal care products should be outlawed
Agreed desu but not because you're a weak fag. It should be outlawed because having to jump through a million hoops to just not have your actual perfume/aftershave blended with like five cheap stenches is a huge pain in the ass.

This also disgusts me. I like to wear cologne and when I wash my face with creams that have "fragrance" when I apply my cologne it usually mixes in such a horrible way that I can smell myself.
>>11356004
>v-necks are superior to crew necks

i agree with most of this but oh lad you're wrong on these two
Even if you're wearing an amazing fit, if you're overweight/underweight/obviously unhealthy, I will fixate on that aspect of your appearance.

The way I see it you would basically combine muted/dull colored preppy pieces(Button up,Polo,dull khakis) with solid black pieces in a tasteful manor.
>>11356656
I would imagine that it would look like the wardrobe of someone who is a CEO by day bit doea hardcore BDSM shit by night
>>11356668
ye
>>11356656
Trying to think of better terms. While Rick pieces can work into to vibe calling it rick-prep is limiting.
Just gonna throw some names around. Feel free to contribute your creativity.
Dark-Prep
Alt-Prep
>>11352930
natural selection faggot
>>11356675
Rick and prep are antithetical to eachother... That would be hard as fuck to pull off. It would be like Hobbes having a child with Ayn Rand
>>11356684
That is what would make the combination, if tastefully curated, striking and questioning in a good way.
all clothing looks bad if you're not pretty and fit
monochrome is lazy and i automatically assume you shop at h&m and zara if i see you in basicbitch uniform c.13-16
if it weren't for kanye west more than half of the guys "into" fashion today (including /fa/) wouldn't be into fashion right now
>>11356688
Holding my credit card right now thinking on getting this coat (it is dick owens). Can I work with this somehow in the way you are talking about?
>>11356692
more like asap rocky years agoo
>pic related, reminder
I actually like zara. It's a great way to get good quality reps for a really nice price.
>>11356695
If we are talking the realm of this alt-prep thing I could see this with somewhat slim dull khaki pants and oxfords. Or you could go with a less sneaker like alt/rick pair of shoes/boots.
That being said regardless that piece looks versatile and can go with a lot. Bit long for my tastes though. Make sure it fits you right. Tailor if need be.
>>11351584
agreed, Dick Ovens has some nice jackets but their pants and shoes look like complete garbage

Unpopular opinions:
- I don't think money buys style. I buy expensive pieces, but just as much of my wardrobe is random shit i found at the thrift store on half-off day. Some of my fits are sub-$10 if you don't count shoes. No-fuckscore
- I like the look of repaired clothing. Sometimes I buy damaged garments if I think I can make the repairs look cool.
- I think all the sneakerhead stuff is wack but I like nice sneakers. i'd take a normal pair of ultraboosts or whatever over y3's or 350's any day of the week. Even if a shoe looks real cool (like my examples) the hype ruins it for me. I always regret buying hyped sneakers.

>v-necks are superior to crew necks
is probably the WORST
>>11357573
are you posting ironically redundant stuff or do you think your opinions are unpopular?
>>11357588
>I always regret buying hyped sneakers.
maaan I feel you on this. lately I've been put off of buying sneakers simply because they are just terrible piece of capitalism that result in 20thousand people in the same city wearing the same shoes, that's not fashion.
thrifting is also very /fa/ so not very unpopular.
I need to see the repaired clothing though, v curious.
>>11357605
the biggest thing that ruins it for me, is how much attention a hyped shoe brings to you. "OHHHH YOU GOT THOSE?!?!" "those are fake" etc all day long from strangers.
I suppose thrifting is popular. I think it's at least a little unusual that most of my favorite pieces are thrifted though.
it's way too dark to take photos of anything right now :( some examples of some stuff i've done recently:
mesh upper on my running shoes tears? nothing some nylon thread can't fix.
cool nylon vintage joggers with a crotch blowout at the thrift store for $2? i bet some cross stitches would look cool.
free designer sweater with stage makeup stains? redye!
I'm not very skilled or good, but it adds to the charm. The magic has to be right, sometimes repairs look like shit but those times they come out looking good it's a look no designer can ever replicate.
>>11357549
What are you implying?
>Rick Owens is shit
>wearing all black is the safest way to dress and completely unfashionable in my opinion
on a similar tip, there's a lot you can do with thrift store finds if you have a good tailor and know what they can & can't alter easily. basic alterations are very cheap, especially done in bulk or if you're a regular customer. for example if you're looking for tapered pants you don't necessarily need to buy tapered pants. if you're looking for a slim buttonup, anything that fits in the shoulders/length/sleeve length can probably work it doesn't need to be a slim cut shirt off the rack. etc
>>11357573

Joggers can sometimes be good for running. Not that nearly anyone on /fa exercises, but still good to know.
>>11351584
I think tucked in almost everything looks good
I also like mid waist jeans and pants
I also don't like skinny whatever
I also like undercut mid partings like pic related unironically
Pic related is better than anything y'all can come up with because you guys circle jerk the same 3 shoes and the same 2 pairs of pants
>>11354362
and they don't wear rick.
well, not really, they don't wear his trendy pieces. shoes like the ramones are just used to push the brand sell to retards. rowens is a bit of a hack in that regard, but not the biggest in the industry, he has done some good shows.
>>11359931
I also don't see why uggs are really that bad
I don't own a pair and have never worn them but I guess they could be alright in some kind of at-home casualwear
there is literally nothing wrong with cargo shorts
>>11360022
there's literally nothing wrong with anything
it's just that generally cargo shorts are affiliated with fedoras or autists. this is a fact. you can't find a single normal perish in cargo shorts. if you think you are normal with cargo shorts you're dead wrong.
I take back what I said. you can find some people with cargo shorts that are normal... never mind, those people that aren't weird or autistic are autistic about fashion anyways so they can pull it off. I was right. only autists wear cargo shorts.

street wear is not and should never be considered fashion
even brands like supreme and palace are no better than shit tier mall brands like diamond supply
any one wearing an article of clothing with the brand spread across their chest or in any large visible place should be castrated.
street wear is the male equivalent to basic bitch uggs,riding boots,leggings,infinity scarves and olive parkas.

>comes straight from askreddit to post this

>>11362041
is it really though?
I mean, I completely understand what you mean with that the brand doesn't make the clothing piece. But for many, the brand is also what you want to affiliate yourself with - if you have two exact jackets, let's say a kilted jacket. One with supreme and one with barbour logo. They are both EXACTLY the same except for the logo.
You'll buy the one you want to affiliate yourself with - not because the logo is pretty. Just reading your post makes me guess you'd pick the Barbour jacket. It's more traditional. More safe. More grown up.
Supreme is for younger people. Probably a bit of more liberal-ish crowd.
Think about it.
>>11351609
