/utg/ - urban techwear general

Experience with guerrilla Group?

>>12185956
With their collaboration with a patented clothing textiles, it houses a lot of functionality to what feels like lustrous silk. Never heard any complaints of stitching unlike some other companies thanks to their minimalism.

>>12185956
What piece do you expect on buying?

Is 0608 a good entry level brand? The sticky seems to say so. I wanted to wait for their next sale to buy some items. Also, does anyone know what their shipping prices are like

>>12186482
While I think of it, any pictures of how their stuff looks on-body without being stock pictures?

>>12186482
Thank you for reading the sticky. 0608 is the lowest tier in comparison to most brands on this list. Wouldn't recommend building a wardrobe out of this brand, just as you shouldn't build a wardrobe out of H&M. I would only buy their T-shirts, pants, and tights.

Have no idea about their shipping price, before the only people who bought 0608 had human proxies or lived in South Korea

>>12186488
The discord doesn't have a search plugin so it's kinda a dig, but in the WAYWT channel there are fits of people wearing 0608.

>>12186474
Looking and their pants and maybe one of their vest.

Updated the wiki with brand listing links to their brands website and tiers. Any comments and things you'll like to see changed please suggest it or log in and change it yourself.

I have the newest noragi from the latest season. Very good quality and very warm, but expect it to be more form than function.

Same goes with most of their stuff.

>>12186793
Will update the descriptions of the brands later, whoever wrote this did a bad job to the point some brands are entirely inaccurate

>>12186864
I just bought a noragi, what do you typically wear yours with? I've been trying it out with a black crewneck and loose cargos

>>12186994
this is nice but i want something a bit more clean and modern looking. do you have any suggestions?

>>12187002
were fine with spending lots of money on a jacket but if we have to convince you to buy it you will most likely regret it at some point.

i can recomment guerrilla group, doesn't look as boring and you can find them for relatively cheap on grailed sometimee.

>>12187012
that makes sense, i'm not going to rush into any huge purchases for the sake of it. i'll look into guerrilla group again, thanks

>>12186979
You probably shouldn't if you're not willing to drop the money.

How exactly does the strap ruin it anon?

>>12187236

>>12187236
What would it be its purpose? To keep the pockets closed? Something that could've been done with a button, zipper, etc, and not a strap that spans the entire piece

>>12187252
Zippers would be the best, have the pocket overlap the zipper for added protection from water, dirt, etc.

>>12188707
It looks great, although like many outdoor brands like Arc'teryx, North face, and Patagonia for some reason they just love the free advertisement by placing their logos on every piece. And for the reason alone I would never year a brand like this. If you like it, go ahead the green looks great.

>>12188700
This looks great, I would love to find a line technical clothing that looks as rugged as military surplus.

How do I achieve this look? Want to look comfy

>>12189241
Show this to your barber

>>12189477
I did, but he laughed :<

any brands that have subtle utilitarian pieces that can pass as techwear? Can't exactly afford an ACRNM wardrobe at this point

I'm looking for obscure brands mostly.
If you look well enough, you will find that subbrands of Nike, and certain Levis and workwear brands can fit into the techwear aesthetic. Brands like Condor, with the right choices are also good and affordable. Please share your recs

>>12189895
Repeat after me: Nike, Levi's etc can NEVER be techwear. No has ever done a good fit from those brands and they just don't have the quality and performance like brands such as Guerrilla Group, 1kDeath Corp or ACRNM. Just save up and stop trying to do techwear on a Zara budget.

>>12189911
>quality
>1000deaths

>>12189911
funny how you mention quality and ACRNM in the same sentence

>>12189911
rather apply the utilitarian approach to techwear and not just dump money into designer brands

I don't have thousands to get marginally better materials. There are plenty of items that fall into unobnoxious techwear that are also affordable. You can achieve the general look with a small budget and still have the benefit of properly engineered clothing.

>>12189911
Nike can't be techwear? Really? You seem to be completely missing the Nike ACG line that they offer in collaboration with Errolson Hugh, founder of ACRONYM. Even at that, some of their sportswear and other garments fir pretty well into the aesthetic, I find.

>>12189911
This is one of the most incorrect posts I have ever read on this board.

>>12190001
>Errolson Hugh
Educate me. Im familiar with Acronym and all that, but did he do training as a fashion designer? Industrial designer? Cyberterrorist? I cant find info about his background.

>>12190016
To be honest, I'm not entirely sure. There isn't really a lot of information out there about him. Kinda lends itself to the intrigue of the brand. All I know is that he was doing freelance design for snowboarding brands and stuff initially. ACRNM was founded in '99, and they worked on their first design for about two years before anything was actually produced.

>>12189895
Maybe check out Outlier and Mission Workshop?

Updated the Wiki with a new section that goes into minor detail on the different styles of techwear to make it easier to understand

Anorak fits too boxy, and don't cuff your pants.

I need a sick ass backpack to compliment my fits and I was thinking about a milsurp parachute harness and cutting some of the straps off. Anyone have experience with this? Also recommend backpacks pls

>>12190640
My fake wtaps backpack is nuts. $24 + shipping. Fits heaps of stuff, has adjustable size straps on the bottom, water resistant (proof? used it when I was on holiday in San Fransisco without anything inside getting wet), comfortable to wear. Has a laptop pouch within the main pocket and a smaller pocket. Only thing its lacking is smaller compartments, but you can probably solve that issue with either DIY or use of small pouches/cases.

This, I love Yohji's style and I would love to incorporate it into this aesthetic, and before people go off and say just buy Y-3... it sucks I don't like the direction that its going with its unnecessary additions and branding I want something a tad bit loose, comfortable, like pictures related without touching Y-3.

All that comes to mind is some of engineered garments

>>12190621
What type of pants or those?

>>12189241
You start by dropping techwear altogether

>>12192130
Is there a way to remove the branding on these? Just the simple "Y-3" on their pants I would love to know if I can get rid of them. However engineered garments don't have functional pants. Might as well add a bit Yohji, no need for everything you wear to be functional.

>>12191614

Asian Cities are not geared towards automobile and instead rely on extensive mass transportation networks. You are forced to walk mostly everywhere and take connections using the train/bus/trolley.

The population density in the cities are also much higher than American/ European cties so the roads become smaller and the sidewalks become wider and more crowded.

>>12193470
If you want to spend the money on purchasing prestos then be my guest. From my understanding it sounds like you don't even have the basics of shoes in your selection. So I would recommend going safe and buying some Chuck Taylors triple black or vans. They can't fail.

Is the model in the pic wearing oversized pants or is that the way the pants rest naturally it looks off. If they slightly taper like how they seem to be get shoes with a slimmer silhouette and/or are smaller toe box.
>>12193519
is a good suggestion, you can also try Puma Romas (all leather in black, if you can find them), asics, acronym x nike prestos, or nike free hypervenoms (pictured)
