I love this kind of futuristic but functional aesthetic.

Where can I find jackets, shirts and pants that have this kind of vibe? When I search for "futuristic" I find a lot of cheap tacky clothing. Are there any designers who specialize in this?

i love the j87-ws for example thats only available at their own webshop at the moment.

if you want futuristic but don't mind looking a bit costume-y/cosplay, HAMCUS might be the way to go

the way ive been going for budget techwear is just getting a couple black cargo joggers and wearing other black clothes, like generic black tshirts, crewnecks, etc. Can pair that with long sleeve activewear underarmor type shirts. I have a generic black wind breaker too. It looks pretty basic so it doesn't stand out too much but it still has that "techy" vibe to it when the whole fit is black. Currently I'm struggling to find a shoe that goes well with everything else I have.

all futurism is doomed to look tacky, it's always retrofurutism in retrospect.

That’s the point. Acronym spends money, time, and effort into articulation and cutting-edge fabrics instead of looks. If you want to dress #techwear just use AliExpress. But with ACR you’ll gain breath ability, weather resistance, range of motion, durability, storage. It’s firm over function. You’ll be comfortable and not look like a Cyberpunk 2077 cosplayer. Shit will last you much longer too

Lmao if you actually believe this. Go to any acronym forum and you'll see how trash their shit is, the only thing they have going for them is marketing which is incredibly effective at making retards believe they are getting their money worth from a $1000 piece of chinese crap

Cringe and jealous. Ooo wow a cardboard box with some logos on it? That’s marketing! It’s the same as spending a crap ton of money where it goes to the “unboxing experience” and you have magnetic lids, printed inner boxes, and huge ad campaigns. Totally. Muh Acronym cardboard box that has clothes shipped in a giant plastic sandwich bag with a printer sheet detailing the specs of the item. Yep. It’s like getting a whole bunch of unnecessary accessories to pad out an item to make it feel more premium

Sold my J47 last year and mad I did. Got a J1A which is nice but holy hell the 47 is so incognito tech and has such a nice collar. They were cheap as hell and sat in almost all sizes for ages. It was an MIC/retailer piece so I gift it on the low but sadly sold it for low and now everyone who slept on it seems to want one and used prices are selling for way more than I paid. Pissed af

Save your money and just buy reg Salomons. They look better in 95% of fits and situations. Yeah if you have money to burn maybe you can find the exact pair of Bambas you want but as someone who’s owned two pair (2 Low and High GTX) they’re so not worth it. But hey if you want people to think you love Stranger Things a lot then go for them

i own, wear and love both regular salomons and boris ones but find myself wearing my bambas the most. i love that they look like they could be worn on hoth while providing regular salomon comfyness

hoka tor ultra (high and low) are still the better "techwear" related shoewear option though imo
