I'm really excited to see this ACRNM x Futura piece. Graffiti is what got me into techwear so I'm really digging what these guys are doing here. The smeared paint pattern is pretty cool and I dig the olive-green bottom/black upper colorway on the new Presto's too.
Has anyone got the full image of this chart?It was the Minimal core AKA ''Techno interests me'',can't find it anywhere.
Since both styles are somewhat related to each other,i preferred to ask here instead of making another thread

anyone remember that giveaway 1000 deaths did for his belts? i hear he never actually sent them out
kinda got the vibe he was a bit scummy using his fans like that to viral himself
Gavin Thomas
I don't know about the giveaway, but is anyone else here into yoyos like 1000deaths is?
Yoyos can be Veeky Forums, right?
Kevin Watson
black bloc is welcome in this thread too :)
i didn't know about that. if true, that sucks :(
i like yo-yos
Grayson Scott
The guy's fits are cool but he reeks of that sort of shit, not sure. Gives me a bad vibe, think it's the mustache. Also his belts should more realistically be like, 80 or 90 bucks.
Caleb Miller
How long have you been yoyoing?
Pic related, white string on white plastic is a good look imo
Caleb Price
Nevermind, just looked it up, Cobra buckles are like, 8 bucks, he should sell those things for like, 20 fucking dollars, how much is 3 feet of 2" nylon strap? like 10 bucks? Jesus man, that's annoying.
Alexander Bennett
I know cycling fits this vibe very well. what are your opinions on roller blading? It seems kinda futuristic
since i was a kid. but i always used those power brain yoyos
roller blading needs more hype these days
Kevin Ross
Man, the Ronin is quite nice looking.
You should look into modern yoyos, it's fun.
Henry Green
i have one of his belts, it's actually p nice
you're not buying it for the cobra buckle, you're buying it for the tightening/quick-release mechanism that's the same as ACR bags
Cameron Jackson
Could you take pictures of how it's put together?

Nolan Diaz
Anyone know the source on that Haori looking jacket?
Anthony Cook
Ugh, this style is called techwear now? What the fuck, I just dressed like this when i went to bomb because it was comfortable and warm during the winter. Fucking dyke toys i swear...
Nolan Lewis
If I had the time to learn to roller blade properly I'd be all over it but I'll stick to cycling for know
Some Acronym shell. Prolly costs a million bucks, have a look on the ACR website.
Isaiah Sullivan
I know it's acronym but what model?
Angel Evans
Not any of the ones readily available on the Acronym website.
Nolan Collins
found it, it's the gt j19. there's one one grailed at the moment in case anyone else is interested
Bentley Anderson
Angry asian men are so effay
Dominic Murphy
Anyone cop'd anything from the ministry of supply? I was looking at them for a tech fashion alternative for Outlier, I want to know their NASA quality is good.
Benjamin Cox
i got into techwear for the utilitarian aspects first, the aesthetic elements second. it's okay for things to go mainstream sometimes, it helps push ideas and builds an ever more creative community. yeah there will be toys, but we were all toys at one point.
i dig this. makes me think of hi viz stuff with that orange lining in the jacket. i wanna see more of these elements in modern techwear like when an user throws on some highlighter Nikes or whatnot
Austin Murphy
bumpa
John Foster
Anyone here managed to cop anything techwear related in the Mr Porter sale?
Logan Cook
i know theo won one and said he talked to the other winners and they all never received their belts
Luke Martinez
i love this guy's fits but i swear he lives in a garden shed
you'd think he could at least get another light source or something so we could actually see the details
Robert Thomas
anyone in here read william gibson?
Elijah Thompson
It's on my list, currently going through some H.P. Lovecraft
i'm not much of a techwear guy but I'm getting so sick of the nostalgic/retro-fetishism in fashion and really just wish we could move onwards and upwards, something which this niche might help accomplish.
love the futuristic silhouettes and materials, but I don't think "future" has to mean dark or muted colors. any good examples of bright colors in techwear?
Ryder Cook
gibson has a penchant for clothing and descriptive details, I know he's into Acronym and a lot of the techie japanese designers
Dominic Cruz
Bright colours are fucking garish
Xavier Cruz
sure, typically
I think it would make sense for this style to delve into unnatural colors to match the synthetic materials, move as far away from earthtones as possible
Cameron Rogers
Oh I know, I've read some of his interviews just haven't got around to sprawl yet
Luke Price
I'm one of winners that's tru he asked my address and still ignoring me
Adrian Ward
id on the jacket?
Anthony Evans
w2c non Naked and Famous or non-denim Kimono? Preferably cotton and indigo/navy/black
Xavier Perry
sauce on bomber?
Hunter Lee
Looking pretty good pham-a-lam
Sebastian Powell
do we put him on blast? kind of shitty he did that to all you guys
Cameron Russell
Like dude said, I made put on the patches + painted it myself. The base is just some shitty old Aussie brand I got ~8 years ago. The fit is actually pretty bad without a bag
Thanks guys, i'll try fix the lighting issues next time
Adrian Green
Isn't this stuff a little silly? I mean, I use a garbage/tote bag so i can ditch it if i feel any heat. backpacks are suspect already, and cops will find the cans in a sec regardless of if they have a 'stashspot' or whatever. likewise for the belt; bulk is suspect, and although easy access, will be found in a sec by the cops
Tyler Parker
I guess it's more inspo than anything right? The first one is a little dumb but I can imagine the second being used for commission/legal pieces
Noah Diaz
I find there's a use for utility wear and/or disposable wear based on different situations. Dependent on the remoteness, ease of access, planned/improvised missions etc..
John Flores
w2c jacket?
Nathan Campbell
Yes, i understand them as inspo.
this image is dope and again serves as good inspo but the eternal realist in me pushes me to think that it would look way too bulky irl. also how would you access the pens in your back?
anyways sorrry for talking shit but not posting anything
Adam Scott
Some of the hardest hitters I've met go out in homeless garb for frequent street-level bombing. I get utilitarian when it comes to a big post, like going up a certain building. I've been homeless, security, construction and sometimes a business man..
Jordan King
Yes, finished the Sprawl trilogy and on the last book of the Bridge trilogy. All Tomorrow's Parties I think is ghost written, it is so much better than his usual jilted style.
Henry Reed
yo man you should do this thread a favor and just post all the pics you have of your fits, i asked for a dump of them in the last thread but idk if you were the one posting them
