>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.

>>12322459
Needs more straps.
How much you bet he doesn't even use those extra pockets.
paper prototypes
toys can be tech
one of the meme-pics
run faster in expensive clothing
classic acronym (my preferred stuff)
u kno we luv that ninja shit
Do shoes need to have some sort of function to be techwear?
like ninja toys
>incorporating functionality using textiles and construction techniques to protect the user from their environment.
This is what all clothes are for: you have bought into a sales pitch.
>>12322493
I would say they have to prioritize function over form to be *good* techwear, but techwear is in practice more aesthetic than functional (or we'd all wear Tilley hats) so I guess cool-looking stuff gets a pass?
i'm just anon tho, what do I know
>>12322493
No, at least not according to the previous thread
>>12322500
the OP is more of a 'wink wink nudge nudge' than a thesis statement
>>12322493
No, just like wearing tech wear you where shoes accordingly to the current weather
Summer is Coming
>>12322514
Would love to cop pants, or something similar
for some reason this image is super polarizing; i love this outfit tho
>>12322515
buy some wide linen pants and get them hemmed up and tapered a bit
< this was kind of a weird insta meme for a bit, all the regulars tossing double riders over their rainshells. it ended after about a month
>>12322518
But she's literally wearing paper
these shoes; terrible for going fast but damn do you look fast
>>12322525
Of course, why the heck would you do that. Just don't wear the shell.
>>12322529
I think it's black tyvek, which UEG makes a coat out of - it's a WPB textile usually used for houses but i've seen it in other places too. it'd be a fine clothing material and has a really interesting look IMO
I think adidas shoes are nicer but their clothing a shit. Would I look like a pleb to mix both?
>w2c slim cargos
>>12322525
This is pretty sweet looking but totally defeats the purpose of wearing tech stuff. might look good if it were a softshell or something
>>12322546
.... no?
< J-brands showing all of us international plebs up with their cool biz
girl on the left is wearing a rain kilt which are surprisingly popular for hiking, and after having tried one myself, are excellent for shoulder season backpacking

>>12322612
Engineered Garments is great. Wonder why they choose old men for their models.
>>12322514
W2C decent cropped pants
>>12322616
Wm is better
>>12322564

How much of this ((((((tech))))))wear actually uses proper technical materials?
>>12322503
havent seen this before. pretty cool
>>12322572
Love this jacket. Hard to find at the moment.
>>12322572
Fav brand
What brands use c_change in their clothing? It sounds like the ideal tech fabric
>>12322599

>>12322506

>>12323337

gothninja is soooooooo played out.
wow this thread actually seems to have positive vibes so far
I love all of this shit. What are the cheapest places to buy online? Knockoffs included
>>12324417
adidas lab84 m65
>>12324469
Look towards the discord, we're already playing with colours
>>12322923
ive been meaning to dye mine, what should i do?
good starting pieces for a newby. moving to Pacific Northwest and feel like techwear would be nice to get into
>>12325023
>>12324526
Look at Tuxbell
so what the fuck do you guys even wear during the summer
>>12325472
tech shorts/pants and a cav empt graphic tee duh
>>12322541
It's horrible for clothing. It is quite possibly the noisiest textile known to man.
>>12322550
taper them yourself
dump from the discord
>>12325718
Cool doggo
>>12322453
This is spreading slowly in London
>>12326123
I see this a lot too, but it's been something among streetwear kiddies for a while
>>12325718
w2c fleece? its pretty dope
>>12326123
They are everywhere in Belgium, never in techwear fits, mostly worn by normies.
>>12326138
Yes, I see so many 17-20 year olds wearing and none of them have pulled it off as a good look. It generally looksbet for a mature man with a decent beard (hip graphic designer look)
>>12326177
Eh, not a fan of them at all but whatever
allright boys, tear me down
>>12326220
I like your insta, keep it up.
>>12326220
the jacket seems bit too short
the pants are fucking great, I'm tired as fuck seeing mad tapered pants, straight fit all the way down aside from the cuff looks pretty refreshing
cut your hair tho
>>12326220
very good, you follow justin bieber don't you
>>12322518
because the silhouette is a fuckin square, obviously normies can't think past directly what's in front of them
>>12326340
>square
>calling others plebs
it's rectangle you dunce
>>12326123
Yeah, I wanted one of these for ages, but I can see it slowly starting to turn into a meme. So, fuck that shit for the time being.
this style has been bastardized so horribly
cringeworthy shit
>>12322464
looks like the mkd coat
>>12325710
buzz your head
>>12322541
No it's literally paper, I remember when it was first posted. It's like those disposable paper shorts at hospitals
>>12326867
tips le fedora
reddit is thata way buddy
>>12322453
Id on that jacket?
are crocs techwear?
in spirit if not in appearance
(not talking about the basic model here, the company makes other shoes too)
> novel materials (plastics + foams)
> novel production processes (injection molded)
> tech features (antistatic, antislip, antiodour/fungal, etc)
> vaguely tech looks on some versions
> ridiculously comfortable
why dont techwear companies use these things on actually good-looking shoes?
>>12328497
As bait goes I can appreciate the effort you put in here
>>12328497
natives zre more techwear though
>>12326220
Anyone know where I can get trousers like this?
>>12322453

>>12325710

>>12326220

>>12329206

>>12328505

>why dont techwear companies use these things on actually good-looking shoes?
