Rick Owens Apostle Pants

Rick Owens Apostle Pants

Black drawstring pants, wide leg all the way down, no taper at the ankle at all. The drawstring’s the first thing that stands out, natural off-white cord against the black waistband, tied loose and hanging long past the fly. Fabric looks soft, almost like a heavy cotton or linen blend, matte finish, nothing structured or stiff about the way it falls.

Details That Make the Difference

Waist is elastic with that exposed drawstring doing the visible work, no belt loops or hardware up top. Side pockets sit low, slanted, barely noticeable against the black. Legs stay wide from hip to hem, no break in the silhouette, just pools at the ankle depending on height.

Construction

• Elastic waistband with external drawstring closure
• Off-white cord ties, branded metal tips
• Slanted side pockets, low-set
• Wide leg cut, no taper
• Raw or minimally finished hem

Combination Options

Up top, this works under a Rick Owens Shirt left loose, or a Rick Owens Jacket thrown over if you want more structure against the soft, wide fit of the pants.

Footwear-wise, chunky works better than sleek here. Rick Owens Geobasket or Rick Owens Boots hold up the wide leg well, though a low pair of Rick Owens Sneakers works fine too if the hem’s cuffed or rolled.

Care

• Machine wash cold, inside out
• Avoid bleach or harsh detergents
• Tumble dry low or hang to air dry
• Iron on low heat if needed
• Don’t wring the drawstring cord, let it air dry flat
