>What is Urban Techwear
We wear clothes to be comfortable, to cover up our shame, and more importantly for our protection. Technical clothing, focuses on incorporating functionality using textiles and construction techniques to protect the user from their environment.

Thanks for creating a guide, I've been meaning to get into this. Tuxbell needs to better, have you thought about writing other parts of tuxbell?

>> No.12105714

>>12105664
I still consider the section to be under construction because I feel it's lacking some basics to really understanding the depth of this style. For example I want to add a section that just goes through all various functions these clothes can home and what they mean.

I do plan on expanding to other parts of tuxbell, maybe small things you'll see from me here and there?

Looking for some military inspiration, looking at brands like Alpha Industries but found Engineered Garments which in my opinion makes more interesting pieces, but not in a variety of colors and not having an official store make it really hard to find a place that has it all.

Any other brands that have the military style with technical function?

So I wanna try and make some garments myself and I found a bunch of places online that sell fabrics like Gabardine, labeled as sailing cloth. Now I'm wondering if there's different kinds of the material that aren't supposed to be worn by people? As in, fabrics that use toxic coatings or similar things that might be unhealthy to wear regularly.

Honestly, your best bet a just to muddle through it, find something on these shops that looks like what you want then research the most general sounding parts.

But garbadine is a type of weave, denim uses it.

And sail cloths are things like dyneema, so synthetics that are crazy strong and won't tear, parachute material and sail cloth are pretty much the same stuff because of this ( just different weights)

Honestly this is one of those parts of clothing that interests me most, especially the likes of natural fibres like wools.

Anyway, there's a lot of interesting stuff out there you'll pick it up along the way

List your collections y'all.

>Nike ACG Woven Trousers
>ACRNM J1A-GT
>4dimension R9-1 Anorak
>4dimension Neck Gaiter
>Dsptch Shoulder Bag

Collections still small and ever since I got my ACRNM I never wear my R9-1 anymore. I even tried, that way I would have somewhat of a rotation but it's seriously incomparable to the J1A.. literally trumps it in every category. Only thing I like on my R9-1 more is a large pocket located on the back of the jacket. Considering putting it up on grailed or something but not sure how in demand it would be/if anyone would be interested at all.

Also, help me choose some techwear shoes. Boots or sneakers, as long as they can hold up in the elements.
