Key specifications include an oversized tongue, CX foam midsole, non-skid rubber outer sole, and model number DC02EX797-A14R0. Based on user feedback, sizing runs large, so ordering a half size down is recommended; it is also widely regarded as an affordable entry point into Rick Owens' design language, though quality is perceived as less premium than mainline Rick Owens footwear.","url":"https://www.simons.ca/en/men-footwear/designers/onestr-drkshdw-earth-sneakers-converse-x-drkshdw-collection-men--8946-164140?colourId=0","brand":"Rick Owens","condition":"new","product_category":"men footwear > designers","material":"Upper: Textured hair on hide leather;

My most wanted shoe is a Geobasket but I just don't have the means to get those in my size right now, as I would have to pay retail. I'm a size 13 so the used market for Rick footwear is basically nonexistent. Got both of my shoes for retail and they're great quality with accessible pricing.

I always wear Rick and when I saw the collab it was an instant buy for me because the look improved so much from what it was (personally speaking). \n\nThey cost a quarter of any other Rick shoe retail price and I’d say its extremely versatile since it’s somewhat of a modified classic design. It prob is a good introduction but it’s not a 100% factory made Rick Owens item so quality, wear and durability will be somewhat different. Maybe it’s something you can wear in the meanwhile until you figure out what it is you truly like, they do not make bad beaters at all.","subreddit":"Rickowens"},{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Rickowens/comments/1oy0dej/rick_owens_x_converse_drkshdw_one_star_pro_gets_a/np0z2i0/","type":"comment","title":"Commenter sees the One Star Pro as a positive way to fund mainline and attract entry-level buyers","author":"[deleted]","ref_id":"r_e_4","thread":{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Rickowens/comments/1oy0dej/rick_owens_x_converse_drkshdw_one_star_pro_gets_a/","title":"rick owens x converse drkshdw one star pro gets a","subreddit":"Rickowens"},"excerpt":"Yeah I don’t hate these.
