what exactly do you want to ask about your pic, op?

interested in buying the Outlier Slim Dungarees

anyone have any experience with Outlier stuff? worth the money?

>>8718856
what do you mean?

>>8718856
He has no question, that' just inspo.

>>8718863
I have a pair. Easily my best and favorite pair of pants. The dwr is ok, I've had some trouble restoring it all the way though. There's some stretch and the gusset work well. Very comfortable and looks good. I'm a 28 waist, but I had to size up to a 30 to fit my thighs (cyclist). Any other questions?

Recently copped pic related in green. I regret not getting black, but it was sold out.

>>8719242
have you got any fit pics? people often compare them to 511s but I don't have a pair of them either. They look like a perfect fit in the store photos but I don't know how much I trust them

thanks

>>8719292
I can upload one tomorrow as they're in wash atm. The store pics are what the pants look like at their best. The pants don't fit as well for me in the seat and they're a bit long (I'm only 5'7) so I have stacks. Those are just minor things that I notice tho, I've gotten tons of compliments on them, and my GF practically drools over my ass when I wear them.

I also recently copped pic related

>>8719367
Oh, and definitely worth the money! I'm buying at least another pair or two.

>>8719367
i'm definitely going to cop then. I'd appreciate the fit photo but not sure how i'll see it as this thread will have probably 404'd

>>8719399
I'll try to keep it alive for a bit by dumping inspo. If that doesn't work I'll post a monochrome blue/ navy fit with them in whatever waywt is up.

Anyone interested in making a techwear general pastebin?

>>8719799
this is the sort of shit I would expect space bounty hunters or w/e to wear- is that the idea?

>>8719846

the whole getup has a bit of a platemail look to it, what with the square edges jutting out of the pants. and that visor on the hat is kind of like a full helm

>>8719846
Not exactly. Aitor Throup makes experimental clothing I guess. Take a look around their site.
You can read more about the hat here:

>>8719640
Here's a real picture from someone who actually owns the jacket, rather than a product page image.

>>8719292
I'm not that guy, but here's a fit pic. As skinny as they get - I'm a size 28.

>>8718863
I'm wearing some right now and they are nice, going to get them tapered at the lower leg a bit though as they're a little baggy

>>8720536
I don't have that problem. Leg opening is good and achieves pretty decent stacks. I wouldn't taper $200 tech pants regardless.

>>8720549
What shoes do you wear with them?
I'm 6'2 and Copped the 33 inch waist
I've got dem squatting legs so the fit on the thighs is good but skinny calves so it kinda looks like shit atm

>>8720575
This is me:
>>8720481

I have a pair of NBs and a few pairs of Nikes as well. I also wear oxfords with them at work.

I am definitely a skinny guy with stick legs. I wear a 28.

>>8719721
i wouldnt mind seeing that. i am a big fan of the military tech ware

What do people think of this?

Nike sb RPM

>>8720633
sry

>>8720113
Wish I could think that way. The Align shell has been a grail of mine since I got into this stuff. If I could afford either i'd probably go for ACR first as well, but Veilance looks so sleek and can fit into most any casual outfit, but with an edge.

needs more ponchos!

So what I really want to see is someone do that ice bucket challenge in techwear adn just completely shrug it off as nothing.

>>8718863
they fit me really slim when I ordered TTS, but they seemed to have relaxed slightly. Outlier is slightly overpriced, but there isn't much more on the market that is quite like what they make if you want something low key but with really good tech stuff. Slim dungs are good pants to replace jeans/ heavy duty pants.

>>8720064
that's stupid. i wonder why he designed it like that
any fit pic?

>>8720942
This is a fucking great idea anon.

>>8720633
I've had two. An all black one and a khaki multi-colour. Got them both from an outlet for $25 each, and that's what they feel like they are worth. The padding on the back is very comfy though and there are plenty of compartments and a nice sized laptop compartment. It's not too big either. cop if you can get one cheap. though, the aesthetic feels more skate style than tech, imo

>>8720942
would be sweet wearing some DWR shirt and pants. If it was with a shell on then it would just look tryhard and no one would understand why youre dumping water on you with a raincoat on. but they dont make many shirts like that for obvious reasons...

>>8720942
I could do that with
>>8720481
Fit, zipped and hood up.

That would kind of defeat the purpose, though.

>>8720113
If I actually needed to stay warm or really dry I would go with Acrteryx if I wanted a still top quality jacket but trade off a little weather resistance for aesthetics i would get ACR. Both are incredibly cool brands but to say ACR trumps Arcteryx just isn't fair.

>>8720979
Acronym is just overpriced garbage with some extra R&D flair that people pay ridiculous amounts of money for "exclusivity."

There may be some functional benefit to the design, but it's not worth 2-3x the price. The shit is made of the same Schoeller/GTX materials as everything else in the market that are priced at a fraction of the cost.

I know the good shit is worth the money, but are there any shoes out there that are at least a bit techwear-ish and cheap?

I don't have enough to convince myself to buy flyknits atm :(

So my current techwear wardrobe is sitting:
Outlier new way shorts
Outlier Slim dungarees
Ministry of Supply Aviator chinos
2 Ministry of supply t shirts
Proof NY nomad pants

Does anyone have any recommendations for shirts? I'm thinking of grabbing the OCBD proof NY has, as outlier shirts just seem too expensive for what they are. Any other good techwear shirts out there that match the "casual" look?

>>8720997
Word to the wise techwear isnt cheap.

>>8720998
Which shirts are you referring to? I have Icebreaker, Outlier, and TAD merino wool shirts, and honestly, the Outlier shirts absolutely fucking blow the others out of the water.

>>8720997
>don't have enough for flyknits
Probably shouldn't be looking at trying to buy techwear then.

>>8720997
I like wearing nike free og in anthracite. nice little reflective bits and a cool aesthetic, though they dont provide any rain resistance or anything. Honestly though, any runners that arent gaudy usually will be your best bet.

>>8720997
flyknits are played out. they were hot last year bro. save your money

>>8721012
I was looking for something more along the lines of button downs. outlier is usually pushing 2-300 for theirs, which i dont mind paying for pants but for a shirt I feel like they're dipping a little two far into the "oh were semi popular so we can jack our prices up now" realm, like they have been for a while now.

>>8721016
Flyknits may be played out on /fa/, but they are very rare in the real world, and the comfort certainly offsets any "played out" concerns.

>>8721021
The blazed shirts are only $125. I hear the pivot design is incredible, and once get one, you won't go back.

All of my current button downs are not techwear, unfortunately.

>>8721021
>>8721027
Doesn't appear to be anything technical about the ProofNY shirts, so maybe give these a shot anyway? Bonobos makes excellent quality clothes and the fit is top notch on their slim stuff. Great casual and office attire.

http://www.bonobos.com/b/casual-shirts-for-men

>>8721027
they arent selling those currently, right now they just have the ones for 175, which looks like I can pretty much get from proof ny for 90

>>8721035
the tech aspect of proof ny is the cotton nylon blend which makes it a little harder wearing than straight cotton

>>8721022
Nah, I see them everywhere around here. Not the trainers like in the pic, but the FK frees and lunars are all over the place. Sneaker trends burn out fast. They are too loud and dominating to be versatile in most fits.

>>8721038
>>8721027
my bad outlier does have the blazed up. I'll prob pick one of those up thanks man

>>8721043
>harder wearing
Don't feed into some of the shit they shill onto you. The blazed cotton shirts at least are treated with nanosphere. Nylon isn't necessarily "harder wearing," it's more about the weave than anything.

>>8718854

I know this is pretty vauge but a techwear thread before linked a foreign website that I believe was danish, or at least the currency was danish. They had some pretty nice 3/4 pants and if anyone has any idea what I'm talking about that'd be awesome if you could tell me the name of the site.

>>8721523
thx m8 <3

>>8721409

>>8721077
No, nylon is definitely harder wearing than cotton, but the real advantage is that it'll dry so much faster.

But you should not buy from Proof NYC. Literally in every single aspect a low rent CTRL-V of the Outlier concept. These not particuarly impressive jeans are the first thing they've done that hasn't been an exact conceptual dupe of an Outlier product.

http://proofny.com/collections/bottoms/products/blueprint-denim

Which is sad, because there *shouldn't* be just one company making basics in advanced fabrics. But there's meaningful differences between, say, Lacoste, Sunspel, and James Perse, even though they all produce versions of René Lacoste's original piqué knit cotton tennis shirt, which was athletic wear so cutting edge in its day that polo players promptly jacked it.

We starting to see it some, but more out of athletic brands going fashion than the other way around. For instance, Mission Workshop makes Dryskin slacks now, the Division Chino, with a pocket shape I like better and a concealed zip cargo pocket.

Does anyone know when Aitor's hand kicked/s into the garments at G STAR? Was he responsible for the S/S stuff this year, or is it starting with the F/W?

I've got near zero familiarity with the brand, and a mass upscale streetwear brand is so different than what he's done before, that I don't know where to start reading "yep, that's Aitor, def Aitor" and where not to.

>>8720113
>Veilance is boring

Yes! So goddamn austere, like the fashions of some dreary, haughty technocratic bourgeois. Like these people walk through futuristic arcologies doing nothing besides emanating calm and passionless commands to peons and machines.

Some of mainline Arc'Teryx suffers from the same problem, too, but less so and more often redeemed.

>>8720942
Someone needs to do it while ice climbing in full Mammut, Arc'Teryx, and Black Diamond.

>>8720995
Lol, dude, we've been over this. You're the guy that says this in every Techwear thread, right?

>>8720997
For what application and particular aesthetic? Most contemporary shoe designs are technical already.

Ignore the people saying you shouldn't try to do techwear when you're poor. You can assemble a solid summer tech fit for less than $100 new, to speak nothing of thrift stores, and winter you just need to add ~$150 for insulation.

>>8721492

Pretty much everything in that photo is vomit inducing except the coat. Especially those runners and the Guy Fieri shades.

What's a good brand for underwear? I'm looking for slim fitting boxer briefs in merino.
And what brands are good for socks, also wool and both thin enough for summer to be worn in nice shoes, and winter.

Hmm, from what u described it sounfs like its worth more than 25$. Why do u thibk its worth that? I can onky cop for 95$ and I really like the look, even if its more skate than tech or whatever

Just bought these Manfrotto photographer's jackets at a BIG discount. Must be being discontinued.

The soft shell jacket can be worn as an insulation layer for the field jacket, or by itself. Big Kevlar patches on the shoulders and elbows on both jackets add style as well as grip and durability. Exterior lens pockets on the field jacket fold down flat when not in use.

Does this count?

I don't have time to dig through Australian sites rn, but seriously, techwear. does. not. have. to. be. expensive.

That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with Acronym or CP Company or anything else at that end of the price range - it just means that capitalism is shit and the poor have to be a little savvier, something relevant but uninteresting always and everywhere, like digestion.

>>8722796
>Lol, why are people so hellbent on insisting that techwear is financially inaccessible?
nobody said that

you just have to spend more

just because some other brand shits out uninspired crap in a similar fabric doesn't mean that 'techwear' as we know it can be done cheaper.

when we buy clothes we don't just buy clothes, we buy a product, a complete entity built up on exclusivity, design, image and actual build quality.

if you want to techwear for less, all the power to ya but you're not gonna achieve the same aesthetic you see online

>>8721267
w2c?

>>8722869
1) You realize you're talking about Patagonia and Mountain Hardwear, right? They're not "some other brand" and it's only "uninspired" insofar as THEY ARE THE INSPIRATION.

2) They're not crap. The Mountain Hardwear design is not to my taste, but you could get a tailor to fix the bootcut easily. Otherwise, they're not terribly different than the Outlier Ladies' Dungarees. Which is better? I could mount an argument for either.

(LD have Nanosphere, the MH has zippers on the pockets.)

3) If you're trying to copy someone else's aesthetic off the Internet instead of developing your own, one that has something to do with you, and with necessity, then you're a fuccboi. Sorry.

>exclusivity

This is pig disgusting, sorry. If there's a single idea underpinning techwear, it's that what you're able to do in the clothes is what makes you interesting. Not what you can cop, what privileged knowledge you come into, or how much you can convince yourself you're better than.

I can't think of a single technically innovative designer who isn't into ideas of democratization and accessibility, even if the constraints of the system means that can't currently be reflected by their work.

Aitor Throup is at G STAR now. Any fuccboi with $100 can stroll down Lafayette Street or order online and be wearing an Aitor Throup directed design now. Get the fuck over yourself.

>>8722993
>I can't think of a single technically innovative designer who isn't into ideas of democratization and accessibility

Okay, brain fart, let me tweak this a little. Frequently, most of them are. But when they're aren't, it's emphatically not a market one except because the market rules everything. Think Jun Takahashi refusing to sell early Undercover to the people outside his friends circle.

It's not democratic or accessible, but it's about actual earned human relations, not capital. Again: if there's a single idea underpinning techwear, it's that what you're able to do in the clothes is what makes you interesting.

>>8720997

A lot of people just seem to be convinced that techwear is more technically impressive than it is, or, more likely, take the advertising completely uncritically.

Yeah, it's waterproof breathable, yay. You're still going to sweat. No amount of money will buy a shell that you won't sweat it.

Wow, dressy pants with DWR. Dockers was making those 10 years ago, and anyone has always been able to roll their own with some nikwax. Hell, your typical wool slacks are just about as water resistant as DWR, even nanosphere.

Anyone know any pants you can wear with chelsea boots meaning they are tight around the ankle like skinny jeans? Thought about the slim outliers which i like but i guess they are to wide.

>brass on techwear
the fuck

>>8718854
So, is techwear just basically the shit I pick up from MEC for hiking/climbing? You know, stuff from Patagonia, Marmot , Outdoor Research, where everything is made with gore-tex?

is there a good way to hide the reflective parts of common tech wear pieces? i really dont like it

>>8723356
>not being turned on by this
not techwear but 'yes'

>>8725699
>marmot
>goretex
u wot m8

>>8726001
?
Marmot uses goretex

>>8724918
i like goretex. its almost as light as cotton twill and is way more breathable than polyester while still being waterproof. no idea about these other "tech" fabrics but ive been satisfied with my goretex products

Are the rifts split toe? Do you need special socks for them?

>>8722993
this.
but those pants do look like shit. techwear does have the added stress of being expected to be more innovation but fit and style matter.
definitely agree w/you about accessability though man, props.

>>8723011
most of them are because of the R&D that has to go into it or simply for the fact that they're new companies or simply for the fact that they produce in smaller quantities so of course the cost for manufacturing is going to be more expensive because buying materials in smaller quantities is more expensive.

>>8724918
there are still things that cost money.
any type of extra attention to the sewing/seams whether that be bonding/taping/welding them or constructing the seams anatomically.
plus a lot of things are outsourced and patent protected. lots of membranes are, lots of coatings are, gore-tex sure as hell is.

>>8725699
yes sortof. there are different tiers. some, like patagonia, marmot, etc. is closer to sportswear but yes involves tech and is apparel.
outlier, ministry of supply, etc. is techwear that can be applied to an office setting and slightly improves stuff like movement, breatheability, etc.
and then theres like christopher raeburn, acronym, gyakusou which is very conceptual and more fashion-y.
essentially its a movement to improve clothes through technology and science.

>>8725712
whats wrong w/you???

>>8726062
fun fact: gore-tex has to be approved for use in clothing products. its very tightly closed, controlled system and they have very little competition.
its a widespread rumor that the gore-tex offices/people whoever "they" are, are more lenient in japan which is why you see so much more crazy fashion stuff overthere compared to here in america.

No. Bose is overpriced and thus not worth the money.

>>8726681
Please. Don't go saying stupid shit before you look at a frequency chart for those.

Anyone know any good places to get sewing patterns for techwear style clothing?

looking to buy a pullover style anorak from them, yet curious as to how waterproof/good quality they are

>>8724630
how the fuck can they charge over a thousand dollars for a plain grey cap

>>8728773
It's in new Taiwan dollars where the conversion rate is one NT$ to .033 USD.

>>8726918
Couldn't find the model as it was a gift, but it's from allsaints.

Sauce on leggings? I've been looking for a cheap pair but it's really hard since everything I find is pretty much kind of a like a shiny synthetic material which kind of look like shit to me, but those look like cotton.

reminder that techwear is an east asian fashion designed for the urban jungle environments of the far eastern megalopolis, not your irrelevant boring-ass american cities enamoured of middle class honkeys who indulge in such motr consumer choices as whole foods, starbucks coffee and barnes and noble

white piggus should stop appropriating this ethnic clothing and go wear their corny-ass menswear, mfacore, fedorawear or whatever it is walmart is pushing

>>8730792
exactly why do asian cities demand a higher level of technical clothing than american cities?

even if your a troll I'm kinda interested to know why

>>8730892
he's talking about the aesthetic, and I agree with it, expect that (I've never been to the us but i can guess from what i've seen on photos) american cities like new york are just fine too
it is a style that fits with metropoleis, the technical aspect of the clothing is not meant for practical use but rather reflects the technical progress of large urban enviroments
fashion is always about the context, you'd look like a fool dressed like a farmer in a metropolis' center just as much as you would look a fool dressed in techwear or gothninja style when living in a rural community
that's the reason every person everywhere can be /fa/ as long as they reflect their time and place

>>8730925
take this yezidi girl that was posted here in an inspo thread a while ago
it looks sick, but only because it fits in with the rest of her lifestyle

>>8730942
forgot the pic

>>8730942
>>8730946
oh I see but that's kind of a basic principle of fashion isnt it. Dressing to your environment is pretty important. Someone on a farm in Ohio probably wouldn't be wearing full Rick

>>8730975
yeah it is indeed, but as with much of the basic stuff, you explicitly need to tell it to most people

>>8718854
posted this in another thread already, but I'm desperately trying to find this pic

Does anyone have that pic of the guy taking a selfie in the black team sesh long sleeve. It had all the old video logos on in and it was a play on the original names, like Greystation, Deadboy, and sesh box.

Also, he was wearing a ski mask/balaclava

>>8730975
Fuck, now I really want to see Rick Owens Geofarmers F/W 2015.

>>8724499
w2c that supreme jacket?

>>8722271
This is what this whole board is like.

>>8722698
levis 511 commuter trousers

water resistant, antimicrobial treaent, slightly stretchy, reinforced ass and groin area. by definition, more techwear than overpriced maharishi

They look like any other chinos, but they're 50$ everywhere and in a lot of colors. fit is tts

bear in mind these are NOT the cargos.

>>8722796
Prices in Europe aren't the same as in the US.
You can't get stuff that cheap in Europe.
You don't have sale all the time in Europe.

Dunno who they are, but the execution here is terrible. The French placket, the awful collar proportion...everything.

The collar is sort of weird IMO , and the sleeves look a bit too long.
