Rick Owens' Third Champion Collection Peddles Pentagrams Aplenty

Editor's Notes: Rick Owens and Champion are back for round three.
Fashion's prince of darkness has released another health goth-y range with the sportswear giant, and it's certainly not for the devout.
Plastering his pentagram motif on essentials such as sweatpants, tank tops, and T-shirts, Owens puts a blasphemous touch on Champion basics.
Worn by a very impressively cut male model, other items from the collection include a slashed pentagram hoodie, a mesh tee, athletic shorts, and jock strap-esque briefs. Styled with Owens' famous Mask sunglasses and thigh-high platform boots (the anti-clog of footwear), the range goes from gym rat to runway with just a few strategic pairings.
By now, fans can expect the unexpected when it comes to the designer's collaborative projects.
With Converse, Owens served up a series of silhouettes that ranged from avant-garde to surprisingly wearable. And with Birkenstock, the Californian transformed the humble cork-soled mule into a sleek (and sometimes furry) flex.
Next up for the designer? His Fall/Winter 2022 womenswear show, slated for March 3, which could very well see the reveal of a new Converse collab.
