I JUST WANT TECHWEAR PUSYSY THATS IT BUT I CANT STOP EATING REEE

>>13181238
I've been in to technical clothing and what was formerly known as techwear my entire life but the more I try to understand the internet trend "techwear" the dumber it seems

>>13181291
Techwear is not one single movement, but is instead a collection of movements. Beginning from Cyberpunk literature, outdoors clothing technology innovations, influences from the likes of Massimo Osti, and eventully Errolson Hugh's domination of the aesthetic of urban techwear.

Simply put, your confusion probably stems from trying to define 'techwear' in one sentence. There are too many deviations, styles, and philosophies to claim any one aspect is the definition of techwear; yet all follow a line of taking advantage of clothing technology.

>>13181313
>Simply put, your confusion probably stems from trying to define 'techwear' in one sentence
No not really if anything, I feel like stems from the fact that the internet movement of techwear is trying to do exactly that, put it in to some weird ass stylistic box and excluding things seemingly arbitrary reasons and including things seemingly without any context to techwear.

>>13181324
Yeah, there are those people.
You can thank Sheriff Hugh for them.

Really want to post the latest LA Meetup pic

>>13181560
Do it

Are these techwear?

I'm into techwear, but I think that techwear tends to have bulkier silhouettes and I'm more into the SLP aesthetic. I really want to incorporate tech or functional clothing into my wardrobe.

What kind of outerwear can you guys recommend? How about footwear and maybe even accessories?
Are there any rings that are techwear approved, for example? I currently just wear a silver band.

>>13182731
if you like slp then theres lots of slim silhouette you can play around with. not even just acronym coats, but lots of great long jackets out there that have the same elongated slim silhouette like a m65 parka that you can build off of. especially if you have slim trousers (Check veilance or outlier) and boots like the slp combats. techwear doesnt have to be all baggy even though that tends to be the most common

>>13182901
This is pretty much what I was going to say.

I also suggest just going through the brands list on a boring Sunday and seeing what sticks out to you.

>What kind of outerwear can you guys recommend?
Read the tutorial to get an understanding of jacket properties and types. From there you can look at all those brands like Veilance and have an appreciation for what is appropriate for certain conditions or what layers.

>How about footwear and maybe even accessories?
Athletic shoes and boots are your best friend. Visvim is highly rated, and there's countless sports shoes that fit the aesthetic.

>Are there any rings that are techwear approved, for example? I currently just wear a silver band.
No one in techwear will nitpick that too much. For a more cyberpunk feel Guerrilla Group is the only """""Tech"""""" company that has rings.

>>13182901
>>13183215

I already wear Outlier Slim Dungarees that I have heavily tapered for the kind of SLP fit I want. I have some black sidezips from SLP and am looking to get some footwear that I can use more casually. I was thinking about Rick sock boots since I can put my pants over them, also considering BBS x Salomon boots in black.
Any footwear off the top of your heads that have a considerably slim silhouette like Wyatts?
Thanks for everything boyz

>>13183647
Stone Island Shadow Project had nice sneaker boots, hard to find now but they might return.

Yeah I highly rate the Bamba 2 from BBS x Salomon. There were a few who wore the Balenciaga sock memes

>>13182701
Yes absolutely

To all those nerds that wear that shit,
what I'm gonna say will instill a fit,
y'all look like fuckin loosers,
Even bums look better, they're boosers

>>13185305
>loosers

Jesus christ fuck off, seriously.
It annoys me that people cannot differentiate between lose, and loose. Same with waste, and waist.

My favorite one, they're,their,there.

>>13183777
Nice trips

ID on those pants?

>>13185979
I believe they might be one of the nike sportswear bonded pants, not sure which though.

any thoughts on Enshadower?

>>13185979
probably Nike techfleese

>>13186945
Cheap, but as with most things in life, you get what you pay for.

>>13187046
I see. the thing is that most techwear brands seem to be pretty expensive which makes me unable to afford any of them.
do you maybe know any other brands that are cheap aswell? (below 80$ for a jacket etc)

>>13187056
There are other cheapo brands out there as well, such as 0608 and 11lab(taobao).
At that price range for just a jacket your best bet is to lurk grailed and ebay for a steal on a decent piece from something like prada sport, cp company, or any of the brands in the brand list really.

>>13187075
cool. thanks for the advice mate.

>>13186913
Oh, shit. I forgot about that one.

>>13188779
Hey it's Mike Sunday

>>13189060
Depends on if yours are the nikelab//acg version or not

>>13188773
I guess it's an enshadower piece that's no longer available. However, for waist and shoulder bags, no one beats Porter.
>>13188288
Absolutely, even mainline, they're just not hyped up enough for nerds if it's not the ACG/Nikelab.
>>13188288
Conceptual for now. Looks like he's looking for investors and support before moving forward. Let's hope he gets it because these alone are forward thinking even if some of it is way over-the-top.
>>13188409
>>13188514
Not bad, they look way less chunky on foot in your first pic, and I appreciate the subdued New Balance logo. Tuck your laces and these should serve you decently.

You're mistaken, the terrorwave/slavcore thread is two doors down on the left.

>>13189620
This, should look more like pic related if you're looking to be tech.

>>13181960
I like this version a lot more than the ninja stuff. I think the hiker tech stuff has a lot more variety and more natural earth tones makes more sense than black, black, even blacker.

What do you guys use for midlayers?

>>13191021
I personally use an arc'teryx LEAF bravo jacket, polarfleece sweaters, and sometimes even just cotton sweaters.

>>13189581
god damn that is an ugly group

>>13191041
I just gave my bravo to my girlfriend and am still gunning for an alpha/lt. Not sure which is really better to go with. Sucker for velcro and tactical looking but the lt just looks so slick

>>13191460
The LEAF Alpha LT is very clean. Only complaint I have ever heard is it makes crinkling noise due to the material. That might have been first gen though.

>>13191140
Nice jacket w2c

>>13192974
Its an acronym jacket from some seasons back, and then good luck saving up 2 stacks to buy it

new to techwear here, can anyone please explain this chart to me in a non-meme term?

>>13182701
>cotton
absolutely not

and the same elitist fags on twg who wear them are the same ones that shit on people for wearing taobao pants when these are the exact same thing

>>13184219

What's are some reccs for pants/ shorts to wear during the summer time? My area gets pretty fuckin humid in the summer.

>>13190905
Agreed friend.
>>13192974
Incredibly rare, you have a better chance of finding something decent and just as nice on the brands list for women.
>>13193121
It's a parody of a Rick Owens Discord meme parodied by some dorks.
On some level it does point out some common 'looks' I guess, but yeah, you should look for inspo and fits and see what stands out to you.
>>13193273
Agreed among many others
>>13193382
Moisture wicking is the primary property you should look for. Some shorts like the ACG shorts from last year have vents, others have a light breezy feel. Give the brands list a shot.

>when a piece tries to be /tech/ but gets lost in the aesthetic and ends up extremely non-utilitarian

>>13193592
HOLY FUCKING SHIT

>>13193594
KYS poet, go back to your tryhard lunarmemes you old bald faggot.

>>13193601
I don't even like him that much (his fits/posts are fine but I wish he wouldn't namefag in non-lunar threads, take off the fucking tag when your identity isn't relevant). but goddamn. I may be annoyed by him every now and then but holy fucking shit am I annoyed by you dumb cunts that apparently just follow him around and trash up the board, you realize you end up making his posts way more prominent by making every other thread about him?

>>13193592
It's funny, you're shitting on it but I think everyone who browses the lunar threads is drooling right now.

Honestly not convinced that jacket is impractical though. Depends on what you're planning on storing in that back pocket. If it's stuff you'll need every five minutes I agree that it's impractical, but you don't have to do that.

>>13193624
It's a sick jacket and extremely practical if you're actually out in nature doing something could keep a notepad , research materials, dry socks etc in it

>>13193651

What are ur thoughts about him?

>>13194772
His identity is rooted in buying shit. In shilling shit that he bought. Lifestyle products and fanciful projections of what those products say about him are the foundation of what he has come to believe is a process of self actualization.

metacuck!

>>13194716

I need a good waterproof backpack, with a hint of orange preferably any recommendations?

can somebody id this jacket for me for the love of god.spotted on Enfin Leve

>>13195786
it's just a fucking generic department store bomber jesus christ

Maybe you guys will know this, where can I find a shirt similar to this one?

These are neat and all, but do people actually wear these, like on public, on a daily basis? No offense but a lot of these kinda looks too bombastic/conceptual to be actual everyday wear

>>13197941
The same question can be applied to the entirety of fashion.

Anyone know a coat with a sling that isn't the nike ACG or acronym
I hate carrying my coats

>>13198313
You should be able to DIY a sling to any jacket using goretex patches.
The Techwear General Discord has some information on how the ACG sling system works.

>>13181238
oi where can i find reflective shit like what op posted and pic related?

i really want somthing dark and non relective with a reflective grid or pattern on

What do you think about the Nike SB RPM for more of a BDU fit? Not necessarily to be weather proof as I want to dump that money elsewhere, just to nicely compliment the fit.

>>13198336
OP jacket is from vollebak, otherwise you could try searching for 3m or reflective jackets in general. A lot of running brands make them, as well as nike and adidas.

Does anyone know how I could replace zippers like these on my cargo pants

>>13198313
Lululemon x Roden Gray collab from last month has a cool bomber with a sling.

>>13198788
What brand are they? There are a lot of outdoors companies that offer repairs if you mail it in to them

Hackronym

Goretex shoes? Other than converse

>>13199359

Thats hobo budget, too.

>>13200486

The NMDs are all that I know about which aren't full hike boot.

Seconding for suggestions of other good tech footwear. Goretex not really a requirement for me. Pref. More athleisuretech (i.e. I can't imagine actually running in acronym x nike stuff)

>>13200486
Adidas has plenty including the lastest EQT and City sock.
Converse recently had a collab of some sort that had 3 different goretex boots.

bald, woman beating broke 40 year old calls a successful, happy nice 22 year old who loves reviewing things a "cuck"

thats funny. kys you little gay bitch

Hey /utg/ just dropping in for advice. I wear a lot of old wool and canvas and shit for my daily style, very far removed from "techwear" but still something you might see in cyberpunk media (for instance, on a character whose schtick is fending off nihilism/transhumanism by practicing old world traditions, guy who just came out of deep freeze hundreds of years in the future, that sort of thing). I also enjoy camping and backpacking, and I have a separate, smaller set of clothing for /out/ activities: light, thin, high tech fabrics in form-fitting, high-mobility cuts. Nearly the polar opposite aesthetic from what I wear day to day, but both are appealing to me. Now and then I'll swap pieces between them. I guess this could be called "tech-trad" or some shit. Anyway, I'm curious to know if you have any thoughts on the intersection between these two seemingly disparate types of clothing.

>reddit spacing to delineate second topic

I'm also looking for a new pair of quick-drying synthetic trail-worthy sneakers to give me a lighter alternative to my waterproof off-trail boots. I would like to find some /utg/-approved sneakers, ideally all black/grey with nice toothy lug soles, yet still decently light and flexible. I saw a few pairs from Adidas and Nike that I'm considering.

these threads would benefit from the WAYWT threads in the outlier/veliance/MW/TAD subs. Some of the top accounts (youngsatchel, branespload, etc) have some great fits and at least on outlier you have the brand's creator regularly explaining his fabric and design choices.

sold out everywhere though

>>13203060
Did you check in store? I know that they can ship them from store to store.

>>13202626
>>13202628

Both of those are sick.

>>13202239
I think that the intersection of those two mediums is the true beginning of techwear, where it went from there has many different stories and beginnings but at the heart of it, techwear is the melding of outdoors technology and the clothes we choose to wear (be it for fashion, sports, etc.) Traditional Techwear is a valid style, carve your own path and see where you end up.

I love my Adidas Terrex Agravic shoes and On Cloud Cloudventures.

>>13181238

whats good footwear for techwear?
most of the inspo i see is either kiking boots or yeezy-esque things, neither of which i want to wear.

reddit spacing

i sort of like pic related but the ropes might be a bit over the top and bulky for every day wear.

what would you guys wear with your techwear?

>>13204747
hiking boots*
hikers dont seem like the moneygrabber type

tech wear is cool but obviously fucking stupid, i live in a major city but almost never see anyone wearing shit like this unless they are walking around high fashion areas and most of the time they are degenerate looking fucks in their 20s probably surviving off their parents cash.

i just can't think of a less applicable trend than urban tech--wear as it has no real utility for any day-to-day part of life that isn't a massive inconvenience unless you want people to think you are a fuccboi when you are walking round tescos on a saturday night.

>>13204753
as if techwear is anyless practical or has anyless utility than normal fashion does.
classic techwear is supposed to be a blend of practical utility and regular fashion, (see: geography student core), modern techwear is prettymuch all for looking scifi but even then its still more practical than most fashion styles.

of course in unfashionable areas you wont see people wearing it because you wont see anyone wearing anything fashionable at all

I really like looking at techwear but I think wearing them casually (in school campus, workplace, etc.) seems cringy as fuck.
Am I wrong?

>>13207028
This is precisely the reason gray man-ing is most appealing to me. As much as I would like to cosplay techninja all the time I feel it is socially impractical.

>>13189620
i like it mate despite all these fuccbois saying it doesnt fall under muh ebig category
its definitely a 'tech' jacket,
i like your slacks which are techninja mobility status
and also the simple black shoes.
nice scarf but i dont like the hat cause its cheap and the scarf only happens to be an okay design but the material is clearly cheap too.
i understand not wanting to drop money on ACRNM but a nice ACG Nike Jacket would be better material than that northface and would give your overall look a better appeal.
The red hat would be nice if it was similarly plain in texture like the rest of your outfit and was a darker red not that cheap red materal from china lol. understand? thats a rating/critique for you.

>>13197918
you dont

dont like it boring as fuck and gey despite desperately wanting to be super minimal cool le ebig full blag outfit

>>13205196
super gay. sorry ilove you and hate you at the same time thats how i am. Jesus christ said to be usefully compassionate. Life is not only about trying to be nice to people who you wish to grow and succeed but to maybe even hurt them and push them to grow and succeed. that is true compassion. to be able to sacrifice your own short term life (when you get mad about my criticism), for another persons future. The thing is this place is anonymous and i could shit on you and just leave and you could figure that all out on your own. thing is im a nice guy. listen mate your outfit is trash because you forgot what really makes an outfit look good. contrast and color (this basically gives off your personality). the funny thing is the way you ahve put this outfit together is also a window into your personality. I see that you like techwear mate but do you really look as cool as those people whom you've possibly seen wearing these items? no. the main reason is because you are not just a really tall person who can wear anything and make it look great. thats just a sad part of life. the genetic lottery that we all enter.
1.Jacket is too big for you. Consider a different jacket that naturally tapers your body and isnt huge
2. Everyone needs to work out in this board lmfao because they all have twink ankles. did you know women subconsciously assess your social worth/attractiveness based on the width/thickness of the shin/calf area? leg day!
3. wheres the color and your personality
4. why are these all meme items
5.low effort yet looking for attention? or genuinely think there something to appraise here? if its criticism you want,well here it is.
6.wow dat white shirt coming from underneath le ebig white black contrast. how original would it really have been if you just wore red underneath there like the red on your shoe? probably not really at all but it still would look better than this boring shit. lol sorry again

Take it easy newfriend, you asked for critique from /fa/. It's average, and could use some improvements. Look for inspo and go from here. Techwear also benefits greatly from living the lifestyle and being fit.
>>13209676
It looks so cute in thumbnail though. It's like techwear for ants... or I guess ladybugs considering that shit silhouette.
