Rick Owens Lovers Thread

Hi all! Seeking counsel on my first Rick Owens purchase and would appreciate any input/advice!
I've gone through pages of this thread and deduced some of the different leather types, and have concluded that blistered leathers are very thin and light. I'm looking for something more substantial than that, so I've ruled out blistered leathers for now.
Does anyone have any experience with this type of leather, in terms of warmth, thickness, how it ages, if it scratches easily, etc.?

As background, I just purchased the Balenciaga leather jacket which is quite substantial (and I guess it's lambskin), and the Acne moto jacket in beige, so I am looking for something to round it out...
Thanks in advance for any input!!

I would guess he uses Origin Assured fur, probably Saga.
Could any Rick Owens specialists out there please help me with a jacket I just purchased from Nordstrom. Its from Moody F/W 14 collection, classic biker style, calf with code RP14F6708-LTQ (any one familiar with this leather type?). Similar to the Carapace jacket that came out since it also has a quilted lining. It also has YKK zippers which is different than my others that have RO zippers.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey guys, does anyone here own the leather thigh high sock boots?
I found a great deal for them but not sure if they're authentic so it would be great if anyone could help me work it out. To me they look pretty good but I'm not really familiar with them so it's hard to tell.
I just bought the drkshdw knit/wool version (neoprene lined) of these and I love the look and how snug they are on my tiny legs but I think the leather one would sit better and look better.
Also in the photos the calf looks like it might be too big, do y'all think it'd still be as tight as mine currently? Is this normal? Or would it be too big? I think the size of this is the same as the ones I own.
Thanks in advance

Hi Ladies!
New here and looking for advice on my most recent Rick Owens purchase!
I bought a new pair of black sock wedges and was extremely excited when I received them. However, I soon realized there are tears on the stretch leather where it meets the top edge of the back leather panel on all four corners. I was wondering any of you have experienced anything like this with these shoes?

I don't have experience with their shoes but instead with RO leather jackets. I wouldn't think this acceptable. Especially since shoes will flex a lot with wear. Looks like it will tear and the leather looks compromised. Maybe some else can chime in on this who has these too.
I'm not entirely sure which style that is, but I have two pairs of stretch leather over-the-knee boots and have not had any issues with tears. I would return them and buy another pair.
