Okay, so I’ve been wanting to snag a pair of Rick Owens shoes for a while, but man, they’re expensive! I finally decided to go for it, and I wanted to share my whole experience, from start to finish.
The Hunt Begins
First, I started by just browsing online. I looked at different websites, you know, the usual spots that sell designer stuff. I also checked out some resale sites, hoping to find a deal. It was overwhelming, to be honest! So many styles, so many price points.
Narrowing it Down
After a few days of, let’s be real, obsessing, I decided on the style I wanted. I went with the Geobaskets – classic, high-top, a little edgy. I just loved the look. Then came the hard part: finding my size and a price I could somewhat stomach.
The Purchase
I finally found a pair on a reputable site. They were still pricey, but a little less than retail, which was a win. I triple-checked the size chart, read a bunch of reviews, and then… I clicked “buy.” My heart was racing, I’m not gonna lie!
The Waiting Game
Waiting for them to arrive was torture! I tracked the package like a hawk. Every day, I checked the status, hoping it would magically appear sooner. It felt like forever.
Unboxing and First Impressions
Finally, the day arrived! The box was huge! I opened it up, and there they were. Seriously, they looked even better in person. The leather was amazing, and the details were just chef’s kiss. I immediately tried them on.
- Fit: They were a little snug at first, but I knew they’d break in.
- Feel: Super comfortable, surprisingly! The leather was soft, and the sole felt really supportive.
- Look: Incredible. I felt like a rockstar, even just wearing them around my apartment.
Styling and Wearing
I spent that first weekend experimenting with different outfits. They look great with jeans, obviously, but I also tried them with some wider-leg pants and even a skirt. They really elevate any look. I wore them out to get coffee, and I swear, people were looking!
The Verdict
So, are Rick Owens shoes worth the hype (and the price)? For me, absolutely. I love them. They’re a statement piece, for sure, but they’re also surprisingly versatile and comfortable. It was a whole process, from the initial search to finally rocking them, but I’m so glad I took the plunge!
