Rick Owens/Sneakers altos/EU 43/Couro/Preto/Jumbo Lace Padded Ramones

The jumbo lace is surprisingly functional and gives these a cool, chunky silhouette. Fit my feet perfectly true to size 43. Already getting compliments on the worn-in leather look.

The jumbo laces and padded tongue give these a chunkier silhouette than the photos suggest, which is exactly what I wanted. For used condition they're remarkably clean, and the leather has that stiff, structured feel that breaks in beautifully with wear.

Got these in used condition and honestly they look barely broken in, the jumbo lace setup gives them that sculptural vibe I wanted. Padding around the ankle is still solid and the black leather has that matte grip that makes them feel way more premium than the price I paid.
