In a style typical of Rick Owens, each model is imposing and bold, featuring thick rubber panels juxtaposed against silver overlays and heavy buckle fastenings. The Rotterhiker High Tongue extends far beyond its summery counterpart, and sets itself up as a must-cop for all those looking to invest in some warm footwear next month.
