Rick Owens Alice Strobe Shirt

Rick Owens Alice Strobe Shirt

Black leather shirt-jacket, snaps running the whole way up front instead of buttons. Collar’s pointed but sits flat, doesn’t stand up at the neck. Cropped, stops right around the waist, and there’s these diagonal seams cutting across both sides of the chest, look like pockets almost but they’re sewn flat, not actually functional.

At a Glance

• Snap-front closure top to bottom, silver hardware
• Pointed flat collar
• Diagonal seam lines across chest
• Cropped, hits at the waist
• Snap cuffs instead of buttons

Leather Quality

Got a bit of sheen on it, not shiny exactly, just enough to catch light unevenly depending on the angle. Doesn’t look stiff either, seems like it’d move fine at the shoulder and arm rather than sitting rigid.

Fit

Sits higher than a normal shirt because of that crop, so it’s really more of a jacket layer than something you’d tuck in. Works better worn open than buttoned all the way if you want it to read more relaxed.

Throw it over a plain tee and leave it open, or snap it shut if you want it looking more like an actual shirt. Goes fine with Rick Owens Pants for something all-leather feeling, or Rick Owens Shorts underneath if the weather’s warmer. On feet, Rick Owens Boots make more sense with the leather than sneakers would.

Care

Leather only, keep it away from water and don’t leave it near heat. Skip the washing machine, take it to someone who actually cleans leather. Condition it every once in a while so it doesn’t dry out or start cracking along the seams.
