Moving along the boundaries of progressive tailoring and avant-garde footwear design, the Rick Owens DRKSHDW High Sock Sneaks set an uncompromising fashion statement with their sculptural silhouette. Completely enveloped in the deep black, triple color combination Black-Black-Black, the model fascinates with an absolutely monochrome, matte-gloss finish. The pitch-black stretch denim upper material merges visually perfect with the matching protective toe cap and the striking bumper sole, while the thickly hand-applied wax coating lends the deep black a fascinating, leather-like texture. These exceptional boots reach up to the mid-thigh and convince with an elastic shaft that contours the leg like a second skin, falling into refined, deconstructed drapes across the forefoot and ankle. Crafted from lightweight, ten-ounce stretch denim, the material refined in a traditional Italian wash house in the Veneto region offers a high degree of environmental awareness thanks to ZDHC-certified washing processes and innovative water purification. The characteristic platform sole with its unmistakable, sharp-edged shark-tooth profile guarantees optimal grip and rounds off the avant-garde design with a powerful, architectural contrast.
