Alright, let’s gab about these Rick Owens Cuban heel shoes, or whatever them fancy folks call ’em. Now, I ain’t no fashion expert, ya hear? I’m just a plain ol’ woman who knows what feels right on her feet, and these things… well, they’re somethin’ else.
First off, they cost a pretty penny, more than a whole month’s groceries for some folks, I reckon. They say it’s ’cause they’re made of real leather, like sheepskin or cowhide, and that the leather ain’t all smooth and perfect, which makes ‘em look… I dunno… “artsy,” I guess. They even put cow fur on some of ‘em, which seems a bit odd to me, but hey, what do I know?
They say this fella Rick Owens, he’s a big deal in the fashion world, shows off his stuff in Paris, which sounds mighty far away to me. Never been to Paris, but I hear it’s fancy. Anyways, these shoes, they say they’re kinda like his trademark, what he’s known for. Easier to wear than his clothes, they say. Like a door into his whole fancy-pants world. And shoes, they can make a moment special, I guess, like a wedding or a funeral, though I wouldn’t wear these to a funeral, too flashy.
- Them Boots: Some of these Rick Owens boots are made with some other fella, Straytukay, or somethin’ like that. They got these Cuban heels, which just means they’re kinda thick and not too high, not like them stiletto things that look like they’d break your ankle.
- Size Matters: Now, they say most folks can wear their regular shoe size in these. But if you like ‘em tight, like a hug for your feet, maybe go down a size. And if they’re leather, they’ll stretch a bit over time, so keep that in mind.
I heard some fella sayin’ he loves a Cuban heel, bought a pair from some place called SLP. Said they were “incredible.” I don’t know about incredible, but they look sturdy enough. And they ain’t just for women, mind you. Seen men wearin’ ‘em too, even that Ezra Miller fella, the one who’s always in the news. He seems to like ‘em.
Some of these Rick Owens boots, they ain’t just your plain ol’ Cuban heel. Some got these silver screws, which sounds dangerous to me, and see-through heels on top of the Cuban heel, makin’ ‘em real tall. Like eight centimeters tall, whatever that is in real measurements. A good few inches, I reckon.
Finding shoes that fit right, that ain’t a torture device for your feet, that’s a challenge, lemme tell ya. You got your high heels that make you wobble, your strappy sandals that give you blisters, and your big ol’ platform shoes that make you feel like you’re walkin’ on bricks. But these Rick Owens shoes, they say they’re comfy. Got good support for your arch, soft stuff for your feet to rest on. They say it’s like “pure luxury” walkin’ in ‘em. Luxury, huh? I guess that’s why they cost so much.
I saw somethin’ about gettin’ these Rick Owens shoes at a place called Saks, with free shippin’ and returns, if they don’t fit or somethin’. But even with free shippin’, they’re still gonna cost ya. But hey, if you got the money and you want somethin’ fancy and “avant-garde,” as they say, go for it. Just make sure you can walk in ‘em. Nothin’ worse than lookin’ like a newborn calf on stilts.
So, that’s the lowdown on these Rick Owens Cuban heel shoes, from a regular person’s point of view. They’re expensive, they’re made of fancy leather, and they’re supposed to be comfy. Whether they’re worth the money, well, that’s up to you and your pocketbook. Me? I’ll stick to my comfy old shoes, thank ya very much.
