About Rick owens

Rick Owens is the architect of gothic luxury: since the early 2000s, the American designer has translated his brutalist vision into shoes that no one could mistake for anything else. The Geobasket is the flagship, a high-top in thick calfskin with an elongated, almost sculptural silhouette and the signature angled lacing panel. The DRKSHDW Ramones brings the same attitude to canvas at a lower price point, while the Jumbo takes everything to the extreme in a heavy, statement-making boot-sneaker. This is not a brand that fades into the background; it is all about proportion, materials and attitude. Owens works with small production runs and premium leather, which drives its exclusivity. As a result, prices vary widely between boutiques. Solezilla is the only Dutch comparison site that also covers this designer segment, allowing you to find the lowest price for a specific model instantly.
