Rick Owens Drops Stained & Stitched Running Sneakers for SS19
Deconstructing a classic silhouette.
Following the designer’s seasonal take on his iconic Geobasket, Rick Owens serves up a complementary running shoe. Sporting a recognizable low-top silhouette, Owens’ take on the classic trainer is covered in a layer of organic, translucent leather, with dark brown panels underlining the season’s moody theme. Distressed topstitching yields plenty of dangling threads, a motif displayed throughout SS19, with a slightly oversized, rippled translucent outsole adding a menacing edge to the versatile trainer.
Though it’s sold out in several sizes, MATCHESFASHION.COM’s site still has several pairs left for $1,038 USD.
Meanwhile, Owens’ Fall/Winter 2019 presentation, “LARRY,” was one of our favorite shows of Paris Fashion Week.
