Rick Owens DRKSHDW Leather Platform Boots Black

This pull-on boot runs on the same style of deeply lugged, tractor-tread platform sole found across several of Rick Owens’ boots, paired here with a smooth black leather shaft and a small pull-tab loop at the back. There’s no lace, zip, or buckle to deal with, just a straightforward slip-on construction with a slightly slouched fit through the calf. The sole’s chunky, staggered ridges add serious height and a heavier stance than a standard boot silhouette. Within Rick Owens’s DRKSHDW range, it sits alongside a few similarly soled boots, distinguished mainly by its plain pull-on shaft.

A Simpler Shaft on a Familiar Sole

The tractor-tread platform sole shows up more than once across the brand’s boot lineup, but this version keeps the shaft itself plain and unbroken, without laces or hardware interrupting the leather. It’s a more minimal way to wear the same aggressive sole shape.

Keeping the Fit Simple

Since the boot itself is already visually heavy, pair it with slim or straight pants rather than anything bulky up top. It works equally well tucked under jeans or left visible with cropped hems.

An Easy Way to Wear a Heavy Sole

No closures to manage makes this one of the simpler boots to actually put on and wear regularly, while the platform sole keeps it from reading plain. Browse the rest of the Rick Owens Shoes range for other tractor-sole boots in the lineup. Add a pair to your cart today.
