Essay:
This stunning leather jacket is a Rick Owens classic. Leather is one of his favourite materials to work with, for him, everything basically started with leather jackets. His leather pieces are instantly recognisable due to their unique fit. They are always tight and have elongated sleeves, just like this jacket. However, what makes this piece stand out is the unique patina that gives it a used look. Furthermore, the jacket is also finished in a great colour, "bitter" in Rick Owens vocabulary. The age of the jacket is sadly not identifiable, yet it is earlier than 2013. The quality is exceptional. The retail price of a comparable jacket is between 2000 and 3000 Euros on the Rick Owens website.
