/fa/ - Fashion

I love it when Outlier pushes their basic formula a little, taking what are already solid basics to be just that much more nice and satisfying. Intricacy and added, useful features are some of the things that endear me most to clothes.

One interesting thing to contrast Outlier's approach and Acronym's - Outlier has the little key loop here. Acronym frequently adds a full on *carabiner garage*, the piece of fabric you see cutting a diagonal down from the waistband to the hand pockets on the P10.

It's at once more dramatic, more subtle, and more useful. It's a big fold of fabric, that tucks away your carabiner, and keeps it at the side of your hip where it's easier to reach.

Whereas Outlier goes with something more obvious and simpler but that keeps the appearance of the garment more conventional overall.

It's the difference suggested in comparing these two quotes:

"The technology is not the fabric. The fabric is not the technology." - Errolson Hugh, maker of pants in cotton

"...you wind up with clothing designed to solve imaginary problems. You get absurd reflective bits, bike lock holder and weird pant leg systems that are actually harder to use than just cuffing your pants." - Abe Burmeister, maker of pants in Schoeller Dryksin.

In that post is the P4S, which, yes, is a completely different pant *as I discussed right in the fucking post, saying I wanted a hybrid of that and the P10 >>8351596 in a more exotic fabric*.

GTFO, stop derailing, I'm not replying anymore.
