A unisex canvas high-top with a 6–8 cm platform heel, front lacing plus a side zipper, and a stitched rubber sole. The buyer record covers Rick Owens Ramones generally rather than this listing, so treat the sizing guidance as line-level and confirm internal measurements with your agent before ordering.

Pros
Cons
Fit notes
Sizing notes for Ramones-type Rick Owens high-tops commonly say they run about a full size large; the usual method is foot length plus roughly 0.5 cm compared against the shoe's internal CM, which lands a size down. Wide-footed buyers are advised to size up in narrow silhouettes instead.
Buy if
You want a canvas high-top with a pronounced platform, four-season wear, and unisex sizing across 35–48. A good fit if you will confirm insole length before ordering, since Ramones-type Rick Owens sizing commonly runs about a full size large.
Skip if
You want a low-profile sneaker, or you need independent buyer reviews of this exact listing, which do not exist. Wide feet are a poor match for narrow Ramones-type silhouettes unless you deliberately size up.

Buying FAQ
Sizing notes for Ramones-type Rick Owens high-tops commonly say they run about a full size large. Measure your foot and compare it to the shoe's stated internal CM rather than ordering your usual number.
It lists a rubber outsole with sewn (stitched) construction, which is stated catalog material rather than a tested result. Buyer discussion of DRKSHDW Ramones rates the line's soles as very durable, but that is line-level commentary, not a check of this pair.
The listing offers unisex sizing across women's 36–42 and men's 38–48. Choose the size that matches your measured foot length rather than the label on the size run.
Buyer comments on the line diverge — durable soles versus more comfortable walking — and none of them address a 6–8 cm platform specifically. The listing itself makes no comfort claim.
Ask your shopping agent for the insole and internal length in CM, close-ups of the eyelets and stitching, and confirmation of which colorway (canvas or waxed canvas) is shipping.
The feature block lists the colors as canvas and waxed canvas and spells the brand as "rricowees". If labeling matters to you, have the agent photograph the tongue tag, heel logo, and the actual upper before dispatch.
Evidence
DRKSHDW Ramones use a TPU sole that buyers describe as very durable, whereas mainline rubber soles are more comfortable to walk in but wear out noticeably faster.
SourceOwners of DRKSHDW Ramones report they can be worn continuously for weeks and describe them as among the most comfortable designer sneakers they own.
SourceBuyers comparing Rick Owens lines say DRKSHDW Ramones are lower in overall quality and comfort than mainline Ramones, and recommend mainline if comfort and quality are the priority.
SourceQC posts on Rick Owens Ramones high-tops report construction flaws such as wonky eyelets; one buyer exchanged their first pair and found the replacement still looked off.
SourceA buyer review of low and high Rick Owens Ramones describes them as great quality that would not be called out, and notes they arrived with both black and white laces.
SourceRick Owens Ramones typically run about a full size large, so buyers commonly size down; the recommended method is to take your actual foot length plus ~0.5cm and compare against the shoe's internal CM measurement, which usually lands one size below your normal size.
SourceBuyer sizing notes for Rick Owens footwear are inconsistent across models: Ramones bought in mainline fit noticeably one size large, while some Geobaskets in the same labeled size fit snug but tolerable, so the same size number does not behave identically across silhouettes.
SourceFor wide-footed buyers, Rick Owens narrow silhouettes like the Ramones are best sized up rather than down, since pinching causes real pain; wider feet are otherwise generally accommodated by the line.
