Rick Owens Beatle Gabe - Noir

The slip-on style with those elasticized side gussets makes them ridiculously easy to get on and off, which I didn't expect from such a sleek boot. The EVA rubber outsole has a nice grip on slick pavement, and the smooth calf leather is already molding to my feet after just a few wears.

The calf leather has that perfect balance of stiffness and give—already molding to my feet after a few wears. The slip-on design is incredibly convenient for daily use, and the heel pull makes putting them on effortless.

The heel pull is a lifesaver for getting these on without wrecking the smooth calf leather, and the EVA rubber outsole feels solid underfoot. I've worn them on back-to-back city walks and they've held their shape beautifully. Exactly the sharp, slip-on look I was after.
