Buyers comparing Rick Owens Ramones reps note color/material accuracy issues (e.g., the leather under the zipper should be black, though this detail varies by season), so exact color can differ from retail.

Evidence
Public notes used
In a community review of an inexpensive Rick Owens Ramones-style rep, the rubber toe cap was reported as not as tough/durable as expected, a known weak point on budget versions.
SourceCommunity consensus is that Rick Owens footwear (Ramones-style high-tops) tends to run large/loose, so many buyers go a half or full size down, though other buyers say true-to-size works for them (opinions conflict).
SourceBuyers advise that if you cannot try Rick Owens sneakers on, aim for roughly half a size down or stay true to size and make sure returns are possible, since fit can vary by model.
SourceSome long-time Rick Owens owners deliberately size down (e.g., to EU41 from a US 9/9.5) for a snug fit, indicating the standard fit is roomy.
