Are you talking about a pair at MyHabit or the older Ricks that had a swoosh-like design?
If you mean those old one, for the most part they sold alright. You got to keep in mind they were around $800 when Prada America Cups were around $300, Common Projects were still around $200 back then too, so in comparison it was still ridiculously expensive back then. Not to mention that the quality was bad, the back sole were stapled and it rusted and stained the sole and more than half fell apart and had the crepe sole that is crazy slippery and melt away with wear.
The biggest factor though, Rick Owens was still on the rise, he wasn't as mainstream now. Only a select few stores carried his brand and even less online. So no one would really buy close to $1k sneakers for a shoddy built pair and from a relatively unknown designer even if the shoes were epically nice. I regret it every day but thinking back, I could understand why I wouldn't pay that much from what I was seeing and hearing about the shoes.
Oh I meant on MH, not in general, haha. Geo's sold out decently fast but the dunks were just sitting (albeit in carts).

Nah, all on Ricks on MH sold quick. People were probably still browsing/waiting for other items to be let go before placing their order so the items were on the waiting list for a while. I was there within minutes and all were gone for the most part, within 10 minutes at least.

Is that nylon? These had potential but it looks like they didn't use high end materials. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

I like the blue arenas other than that fit is corny
idk why people don't understand that givenchy is supposed to be worn with baggy jeans in a carefree style, when you rock it all coordinated with the pretty boy jeans and shoes it looks so try-hard

Haven't handled it but likely nylon, LV doesn't use cheap nylon though. Like on their bags for example, of course they are flimsier than canvas bags but they do not feel as cheap as like those gym slack bags. With the shoes, it'll likely be better because it'll be lined and cushioned on the inside so if you like the shoes, I think you'd be good with the quality.

better than when they try too hard on a collab and its flops. Stick with whats tried and true

I have the Ozweego 2 from last season. The navy and maroon pair.
Edit: just read the question from the previous page. I got mine in a size 8 (my true size) And I would say they run just a bit small. Like, they fit me fine but I would go with an 8.5 just for a little bit more breathing room.

Shame shame shame. I will say it and say it again majority of you in here just buy shoes because they have the "high end" title. So a collab that puts an R on the side of the Stan Smith shoe with perforated holes? How exciting and wildly creative.
