>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.
now THIS is techwear - small form factor for quick evasion - no hair to leave evidence when lurking - earrings make a quick improptu weapon - non-descript features for max grey man potential

Do people actually use the jacket sling?
Personally I can't be bothered to put it on with the jacket 90% of the time. Does look p cool though
Mason Barnes
>no chin
I'm so sorry
Jayden Rodriguez
I just got my ACG jacket today
not sure what the use is supposed to be, but the writing is just like my chinese cartoon books so i like it
Michael Stewart

Blake King
w2c dope bags like in picture, preferably all black
I like the KAWS shirt, but I hardly use my jacket slings. I'm not inside for too long that I need to take off my jacket.
Bentley Gutierrez
he looks so happy
:')
Luis Davis
Can anyone recommend any non-black non-acg cargos? (already have too much ACG crap)
Also what does Veeky Forums think of incorporating some military surplus into the fits?
Brayden Price
Military surplus is a good cheap way to get some water resistant clothing, it's all good to incorporate. Check out Outliers new pants or some cargo pants in Triple Aught Design.
Jace Peterson
what bag is that? anyone know
Julian Cook
Why is gore-tex so expensive?
Logan Thompson
Because you get what you pay for, the best water repellent technology you can get into clothing. It's made a name for itself even outside the techwear community
Ethan Hill
Yes, I do when I'm taking the Tube in London because it's too damn hot in the trains.
Tyler Moore

You can get Gore Winstopper or Gore-Tex Pac Lite which are a bit cheaper.
I have a full gore-tex set up for my snowboard gear. One day it was nonstop/slush raining and everyone in my group was drenched and off the mountain by 12pm. I stayed on the whole day and was completely dry (except for gloves).
It's 100% worth it and not a meme.
Robert Martinez
Meanswhile
Matthew Roberts
Everyone knows Gore-Tex
Evan Wood
It's a reliable textile.
Isaiah Rivera
just got these off asos w/ student discount
gonna take off autist patches and plan to taper them down to 6"
what you guys think?
Lincoln Butler
opinions on these?
Samuel Cooper
Looks pretty good, great start for the aesthetic It's OK.
Jacob Perry
I have these in all black leather, kind of regret not getting white, but they're great trail runners and keep my feet dry and warm. Nice and light.
Gavin Edwards
Are the canvas version either waterresistant, or waterproof?
Luke Flores
I doubt they are, but I'm sure a gloss over in DWR or mink oil (if black) would help.
Daniel Richardson
Someone talked about making the Nike Bonded Pants Even darker than it is. Do anyone of you have any experience with this?

I've realized pulling off a good techwear fit means there is a lot of things going on with your jacket, bag strap, pants.
This is really what makes or breaks it, how many pockets, dangling straps, and cargo pouches you can fit in. Plain pants and outershells with minimal pockets don't really pull off the 'look'.
IDK something I have noticed.

What shorts/pants are these
Jayden Cruz
Was this taken in SF Kotokuniya on the bottom floor?
Luis Bell
no clue for both, just dumping some inspo :(
Wyatt Cox
what pants are these
mirin, not too big on the shoes tho
David Foster
nvm
P23Ts
Hunter Peterson
Not so much, that's mainly just for the ninja thing that the Instagram people go for
Jason Johnson
Nice jacket! I like that is not black or tan. Is colorful tech wear possible without having an "outdoors" look?
Nicholas Rodriguez
Yes. Try the discord
Logan Reyes
All black can be a bit of a meme at times, so yes
Hunter Cooper
lel this sucks dick
Samuel Davis
>not a single mention of porter
Pleb af
Kevin Diaz
Theo-fits look better without Theo in them
Xavier Flores
Any pants recs?
I'm looking at some Y-3s for a outfit but it doesn't have many pockets and neither does my jacket so I'm reluctant to pair them together.
Maharishi is a look I'm into. Besides storage I'd need wind or cold resistance.
Nicholas Miller
Outlier for basics Triple Aught Design, Arc'Teryx Leaf, Acronym, Beyond and even Maharishi for some utility. Choose your favorite sports brand for something athletic.
Owen Williams
Thanks.
John Martinez
Yes look at stone island
Carson Harris
Unfortunately I suffer the opposite, guess it's the angle or w/e
(first pic I found from the side, ignore the facial expression)
Thanks - was a really good collection imo. Wish I'd picked up more pieces. But yeah pretty much the same on the sling front
That's fair, perfect use for it imo
Matthew Torres
Oh shit, I take it back, nice chin
Lucas Nelson
looooooool
Joseph Edwards
Guys I'm thinking of picking up these for my tech fits. They are waterproof AND breathable. what you thinkin senpai
Alexander Hall
Vince Vaughn approves
Gavin Sanchez
Vince Vaughn is perfection and one of the gods of techwear. His small yet built frame is ideal for urban exploration, Vaughn regularly conquers large and vast city scapes in his godlike tech fits. Vaughn is trained in parkour and free running, which is essential for his deep urban exploration. His IDEAL size lets him slip through small spaces are escape security when then attempt to catch him. Vaughn has worked with many leaders of the techwear industry to create pieces to fit his perfect body, this includes the worlds only XXXS J1-A and size 2 yeezies hand stitched by tech connoisseur Kanye West himself. Vaughn is rumored to be working with hugh currently on a signiture XXXS small range, this will encourage fans of techwear to undergo surgery to achieve the perfect body.
Ryder Barnes
Vince Vaughn confirmed for next 1kdeaths

Is photography the most techwear relevant hobby?
Kayden Lee
parkour, photography, black hat hacking/cracking, urbex, martial arts
Austin Williams
They look like those Bionicle shoes Nike made in 2003
Michael Diaz
I guess, but there is no longer any skill in photography, its kind of like streetwear fashion.
It's just expensive lenses and a grasp of the rule of thirds. Pretty lame.
Parker Nguyen
Spoken like a true bad photographer
Gavin Robinson
You have a very narrow perspective of techwear.
You need to lurk more.
Jace Ward
Looking at most of the inspiration posted in these threads he is not far off, most people who like techwear couldnt tell you anything outside of brands like acronym and gg
Dominic Brown
Lmao did you seriously take time to do this
Ryan Sullivan
Thoughts on this Arcteryx?
Elijah Allen
Meh, its pretty obvious 90% of digital photography now days is manlet asians buying expensive lenses and using le cool acronym strappy's to be a tacticool photographer.
Justin Collins
Anyone know if a size Medium in Cav Empt pants fits like a Medium in Nike or any US brand? Where M=32"
The ad says they're like a 31-32" want to make sure before I pay for shipping from Asia.
Jeremiah Foster
Trying to teach myself some photoshop stuff atm, so yeah
Chase Martinez
Poncho!
Levi Collins
>Maharishi
tfw want to buy their stuff, but their name is too fucking weird
Blake Adams
w2c
Dylan Hughes
So? Does that mean they're good photographers?
Eli Nelson
r u literally retarded or just pretending
Landon Ortiz
Its ugly as fck. I can see it in a snowboard pipe thing. By a 12 yo snowboarder. The mother baught it to him. Its "Everest" new cool snowboard collection
Just recently saw how William Gibson hangs out with Errolson and crew
Blew my fucking mind. Shouldn't be surprised that the author of the seminal work of cyberpunk fiction would gravitate towards this stuff but there's probably nobody else that's in their sixties fucking with techwear like he is
Ian Perry
both
Christopher Miller
This is a stupid question but is all of the Y-3 stuff from the SS17 show youtube.com/watch?v=cr08EIfnALE available to buy? Looking through their online store it looks really sparse.
Hunter Bennett
guys is nemen on its own? i know they dont make goretex like waterproof stuff, but how about nylon multi pocket smock? its windproof right?
Jordan Thompson
Now that the dust has settled, what's the verdict on these? Should i cop a pair? Better or worse than Qasas?
Asher Davis
i like them
and i have enjoyed watching all the bulk buyers drop their prices from 500 to somewhere around 225...might pick up a pair when its under 170
Brody Sanders
You are stupid and don't deserve clothes
Chase Gray
Gibson dressed better when he was fucking with massimo osti's clothes
Eli Cox
Worth it to size up? I heard they fit really tight
James Taylor
yeah compared to my other nikes i'd go a .5 up
Isaac Myers
well no shit osti was better than this island chink
Jaxson Collins
alright goys i look like im in a RWDS right now
how do I scale back the military look? more hype beast shit?
Aiden Thomas
Nah, just don't go for camo and limit you colour palette
Noah Thomas
No.
Cooper Butler
I have these gloves in olive! amazed to see my autism winter gloves on fa
Luke White
>Looking at most of the inspiration posted in these threads he is not far off,...
You got me there. That's mainly why I don't usually post or even lurk in these anymore.
