    Would you be so kind and tell me, what (in your eyes) makes them look legit?
    Stitches, overall silhouette, leather quality impression. I'd like you to make a closeup photo of zipper stitching, zipper tongue "inside" side, the front.

      I can't, I don't have the shoes. Haven't bought them yet.

      Zipper tongue on most RO wedges have those two "buttons" on the left side.

      Also, the lining on the back is usually double?

        Then request these photos from seller with better quality as well.
        There are several iterations which have single button i.e. http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/63649
        I can't see anything regarding the back lining on your photos (by the way fix your links in this post, they are broken) due to bad quality but you can check how it's usually done at my link, it's double-single-double again with different lining pattern.

            RO sneakers

            Hi,

            Looking for feedback on these:


            Are they made in 42.5? Never saw that size at the store...

              42.5 is legit for Rick Owens sneakers, I saw a few on LVR. But where did he get all these Rick sneakers ?

                i've had this question too and i was just assuming it's an error in size conversion. i've always thought rick to not have half sizes. it seems like to create whole and half sizes in luxury boots/sneakers is pretty inefficient.

                      Does anyone know if the Rick leather worker jacket from Naska was supposed to come with wooden buttons?

                            my GUESS would be that they were hand-made by evan / parts of four, just like the toggles for the ... eh... toggle coats...
