Started an instagram for the channel: clyff6ix at IG. It features behind the scenes stuff, works in progress, pickups, and other skullduggery. First time user so 🤷‍♂️

I have a question. I want to buy a rick Owen's champion jason zip up hoodie but they dont have my size in the mens collection. I see a size xxl in women collection do you think it's worth it to purchase the women's as a male.

[@inkarlcerating]

One of the best Rick Owens channel here in YT! 🖤 I think going back to Rick’s roots on how he polished genderless, unisex, fluidity in fashion are reason for men to explore the womens! My partner has the same predicament that the mens Rick has lesser options. The only issue would be size if you’re more of a bigger built which you have pointed in the video 👍🏼

[@clyff6ix401]

Well said! Wish I could fit the women’s shoes. So many more colors. Thanks so much for your comment. Love your channel btw ❤️🙌

[@kodokushiHill]

i love how u describe the items and speak to the viewers. you are not pompous, you are not an elitest. you just tell it how it is and you genueniely feel like a cool person to hang out with. You have my sub!

[@SM-ox1io]

great video, going to start looking through the womens section more regularly for steals!

[@matteocommodo]

Black metallic pair is so nice !!!

[@mrquinnoconnor]

Really like your videos

[@MJHFTBN]

Hands down the best KZbin channel for Rick Owens! Would love to see a video on tank tops! I don’t own any and they look really nice, but as a 5ft8 guy I wonder if it would look too long to my liking

[@clyff6ix401]

Good idea. I don’t own any either and I’ve never worn tank tops. But I’ve been eying some Rick tanks lately, anyway. I’ll see if I can find some at a good price and do a video when it’s really hot in July or August 👍

[@MJHFTBN]

@@clyff6ix401 nice that would be amazing! I’ve been really interested in the basic ribbed tank top! Do you only wear Rick or also other designers?

[@clyff6ix401]

A few other designers: Damir Doma, Robert Geller, Loro Piana, Billy Reid, Helmut Lang. But not too much brand variety. I tend to go deep rather than broad when it comes to my interests.

[@MJHFTBN]

@@clyff6ix401 Nice! Same here, I usually like to stick with 5 main designers and maybe a few others here and there. Rick being my favorite but really like the work of Jun Takahashi, Takahiro Miyashita, Raf Simons, Henri Alexander Levy and a few others!

[@clyff6ix401]

Wanted to get back to you before sale season ended. You should try the rick ribbed tank. I bought 2 ribbed tanks and 1 anthem tank. One of the ribbed tanks is a large, one is a medium, and the anthem tank is a large. They all fit well, even the length. They find their own hem length just below the hips where they bunch up in a not-displeasing way. I’m still going to make a video. But I hope this is helpful in the meantime. 🤜✨🤛

[@mgophern]

great video. I really like your analysis and comparison.

[@chrismpkz]

Great video, I am particularly really grateful for that insight about the double vs single seam on the dropped crotch. I’m a much bigger fan of Haiders dropped crotch stuff than Ricks (on myself, not necessarily in general) and that comment helped explain why. The double seam creates that extra flap of fabric in the back that isn’t present on single seam stuff (like Haider Perths). Thank you for the video, excited for more :)

[@clyff6ix401]

So glad you found it useful. I hadn’t heard of Haider Perths before your comment. I’ll have to check them out. Thanks 👍

[@clyff6ix401]

Ohhh. Haider Ackermann. I know the brand but never tried the clothes.

[@chrismpkz]

@@clyff6ix401 I’d definitely recommend you look into him some! If you’re a big fan of Rick’s color palette, a lot of the earlier Haider runways (pre 2016 or so) use similar colors

[@gwebb2020]

Great videos and you have a sick collection! Inspired me to try out some new stuff. Thanks!

[@qabriel2346]

Is there a way of softening that rough cotton Rick uses, they’re noisy when I walk and kind of stiff, lmk if anyone has a good way of softening! Love the vids btw! Had to watch all your vids in one sitting haha keep it up 🙏🏻

[@clyff6ix401]

Ha! My partner is always laughing when she hears me swishing through the house. Wish I had a solution for you 🙃

[@bubblebutt4919]

Love your necklace

[@e2magi]

can tell if a piece is a womens piece from the code on tag, RP is womens mainline, RU for mens RO for womens runway, RR for mens DS for womens drkshdw, DU for mens LI for lilies

[@clyff6ix401]

Thanks. This’ll definitely help somebody

[@JonathanCortez12369]

could a rick owens small jacket in womens fit a skinny mens small

[@clyff6ix401]

I don’t think so. A women’s large might fit a men’s small. Rick’s women’s (and most men’s) jackets tend to run slim. That said, it depends on the cut. You could try comparing sizing measurements on men’s and women’s rick stuff on SSENSE. They post measurements

[@katerinaWeekndova]

hey what's the background music?

[@clyff6ix401]

It’s Balaklava by Pessimist. You can always find the music info and links to the songs in my video descriptions 👍

[@gorgonia2287]

Do you have the product code or name or anything for the womens shorts with metallic in it? Trying to find a pair but not sure how

[@clyff6ix401]

LI20S2338-JX, Good luck! 👍

[@amostramel2778]

what are the orange shoes you’re wearing? love em

[@clyff6ix401]

Thanks! They are Rick Owens SS16 Cyclops sock boots in Mango. These have metal D-rings on the heel and no toe cap.

[@stillchillmoody]

do you buy them in the same size?

[@clyff6ix401]

Great question. The margin for error is very generous when it comes to sizing on the elastic waist pieces. A US dress size 4 is an Italian 40. A US dress size 6 is an Italian 42 and so on. By that logic, my RO men’s pants and shorts in a 46 (dress size US 10) should be much bigger. But they are not. On some pieces, they are actually smaller. I’m a 30-32” and anything above a Medium or a US dress size 4 fits fine with elasticized waists. But I probably wouldn’t go up to a women’s 12. I don’t have any experience with the women’s not-elastic clothes though. Hope this helps 👍

[@stillchillmoody]

@@clyff6ix401 thank you for your detailed reply. helped me a lot, I was looking to buy a pair of bela shorts in womans and was undecided which size I should get being that I am a 32 waist

[@clyff6ix401]

Smart! I hadn’t thought of the women’s belas. Might take a look myself

[@dravenbbs66]

@@stillchillmoody I'm also a size 32 what size I should get if I want the belal shorts in women size? I want to purchase something right now in the rick Owens womens collection but confused about the sizing.
