You're never going to build a "tech focused fashion" wardrobe at decent prices. You'll get the aesthetic, but if you don't have good money, "tech wear" will be out of your reach.

>Mountain/Hiking stores (you'll also need to get a few pieces tailored, as they'll normally be too baggy for what you want)

I'm a new biker and I'm interested in a tech style 3M reflective jacket (the white kind). Must be water and wind proof.

Yes, I've already googled and gotten some sources, but I'm interested in seeing some good looking higher fashion pieces besides whatever ugly shit Nike is making (maybe from people who've already done the research). Anyway, looking for good recs.

Been wanting to ask forever, but what pants are he wearing. w2c.

>>9271499
If you're a biker you'll sweat a whole lot with those kind of jackets.

Just ordered this. I hope a M is big enough (5'5 195lb)

The nature of the fabrics means they're always going to be more expensive than something just made from cotton or polyester.

>>9271499

Stone Island.

>>9271499
w2c link?

>>9272470

It's going to be too small, looks like it's from China too.

>>9272470

Lol it won't be you sawed off tub of shit

>>9272823

Also forgot to mention that this isn't even techwear. This is shitty anime-tier gothninja wannabe shit.
So you can fuck right off out of this thread.

I was interesting in copping some pieces from isaora. Whats the general consensus on the brand?

>>9271446
Depends on your definition of "decent prices". If a decent price to you is $500 for an Ten C piece instead of $800+ then you've just gotta be patient and diligent to build a wardrobe. If a decent price to you is $200 or less for a jacket then you've gotta pick a cheaper style or save up, because you'll never get past North Face at a tight budget.

>>9272909
Sub-par materials and design for the price point.

Is the Outlier Ultrafine Merino the best shirt out there? Good array of colours, no obnoxious branding, no weird off-colour stitching, etc.

They're so god damn expensive though. £60 for a shirt.

Does anyone know where I can cop an all black light weight windbreaker? Something cheap but reliable.

>>9273000
Marmot Precip

>>9272984
yes, they are. accept it.

>>9273181
I guess people pay more for worse shirts, £300 for a week's supply isn't so bad I guess.

This is the raincoat I'm after, seems perfect to wear over something warm and keep wrapped up in my pack when it's dry.

Bump

Should I cop this Isaora Knit Bomber Hybrid jacket?

>>9275300

>>9275303
wouldn't cop tbh not a fan of slim bombers, they wouldn't match the majority of tech pants which are a little baggier

>>9273054
best /fa all time fit

what is tech wear?

>>9277088
Performance fabrics. Clothing varies depending on the style.

>>9271461
This is wrong except for the greentext.

>>9272984
No. They're one of three people doing tees in 17.5 micron merino wool (versus the standard 18.something), their distinguishing thing being that it's the most basic/most similar to a regular cotton tee in style, cut, and function.

Which some people will call best, obvious they will, but definitely not me.

The others are Ibex, which makes relatively straightforward baselayer-style tees in 17.5 fabric, and Kuiu, which also makes baselayer tees.

I haven't handled Kuius, but they seem pretty special. 17.5 blended with some nylon for dry time and durability, a special "Nuyarn" knitting process that supposedly makes it all even stronger and more elastic, perfect weights (125-145-210 gsm) and great features - vents on the 125, chest pockets on the 145 and 210.

Catch is it's a hunting company, so only drabs and bizarre camo. No black.

But also, measuring the goodness of a shirt soley by how fine the fibers in it are is kind of ridiculous.

>>9273000
Define cheap.

>>9273021
Precip's a hardshell.

>>9272835
>>9272823
stop replying to ruse newpal

>>9277109
Ach, if only Kuiu made a solid black and a solid white it'd be perfect.

>>9272470
It will look great on your beautiful skin
post fit pls!

If someone can recommend a 4chan image dumper that works, I don't mind dumping my techwear folder.

Just copped this, can't wait for spring.
Anyone have any good recs for winter boots? Must be waterproof and be able to handle snow

>>9271499
most bike gear won't be particularly fashionable but do read lovelybike for some decent coverage. for shells like your pic you will have to shop gore or pearl izumi. for jerseys and mid layers that could pass as fashionable check out velobici and that ilk.

I am looking for a medium warm jacket to bring backpacking in asia and new zealand.
At first I thought about north face, but then i remembered seeing some fancy Japanese tech wear jackets on here.

Would anyone be so kind to tell me a few brands or where i should start looking? Doesn't have to be Japanese, just something decent looking with good quality.

Thanks

>>9275303
The fuck is with that niggas head?

>>9272909

They are the plebest techwear brand. Not worth the money.

Unrelated, cop or not?

>>9280795
Arc'teryx
Triple Aught Design
Mission Workshop

Outlier has some decent midlayers

>>9281595
where are they from?

Just from the looks I'd cop.

umm yeah... the techwear trend is over we need something a bit fresher for 2015

Are goalkeeper pants cool for everyday use?

>>9285273
absolutely not

>>9281642
Thanks man, now i know where to start.

>>9285273

>>9289844
Those aren't really techwear at all.

>>9289858
I have no opinion, just posted a link to the person that asked

>>9285273

goalkeeper shorts over leggings would be pretty nxt

crazy

>>9285273

would love to see some fits.
there are great ones out there , but I'm concerned about the cushioning and how it will work out

Are there any other pants with a silhouette like the Acronym P16: voluminous/loose/relaxed/baggy as fuck, but still tapered and conforming to the shape of the legs?

It seem so subtle I'm not sure the average tailor could get it right.

Bonus points if they're cheap or otherwise not a fashion-y piece; I'm looking for a dress-down, anti-statement piece to ground everyday fits.

Cop?

>>9292944
No

>>9292812
pinrol

I coped these

>>9292952
what are they? they look cool
>>9292812
just go to target and get any straight leg trouser and have them tapered by a tailor for $15

>>9292988

K1X Anti Gravity

they are not expensive either

>>9292812
Just get some pants with articulation darts (some fatigues, even) and taper them.

Could anyone please refer me to some black tech wear pants? Preferably something light because I live in Los Angeles.

>>9294359
levi's commuter cargos

>>9294498
Thanks. Any other recommendations? Levi's don't hold up so well in my experience.

>>9294760
Never have seen them mentioned anywhere but Oakley had really nice Icon Hydrofree trousers, more or less as 'techy' as the Commuter Cargo's (water resistant coating and some anti-bacterial properties I believe), no idea how available they are though.

Who knows some nice neck gaiters?

>>9294998
would also like to know

>>9289858

Yes they are, ripstop is just an older engineered fabric. It's very light hence I will cop a pair to wear this summer when I want to wear pants but not sweat my balls off. My maharishi / outlier / levi's commuters are too heavy to wear during the day. It's a struggle to tech during the summer when you don't to do heat gear tights and/or shorts everyday.

I bought this about a week ago, Nike AW84 Flash.

>>9274444
wouldcop/10

I got a hoodie from lululemon that's one of the best I've ever had. Pretty wind and water resistant, hella warm, chest vents, thumb loops, and double zippers. Just picked up one of their 5 year basic shirts, super comfy, wicking, and anti-microbial and shiz. Also have some of their shorts which are pretty legit.

I used to (still do but not as much anymore) do a bunch of rock climbing and backpacking so I've been wearing techwear stuff since it looked like shit. From my experience Marmot is an awesome introductory brand, Mountain Hard Wear is another good choice and they have stuff at a range of price points. Arc Tyrx is god-tier. The only reason you buy something new from them is because you want a different coat or whatever from the one you've had the last 7-10 years.

>>9294359
Might want to check out lululemon's abc pants. It's been awhile since I've checked them but Outlier? or Ex Officio would probs have some stuff too

>>9272470
Nice one dude! i was thinking of getting one of those, w2c?

>>9296552

Marmot is pleb af.

>>9301270
Gore Tex socks sound a little silly, granted I don't know the conditions they wore it in but wool socks should be more comfortable and functional enough with those boots

Also as with most techwear focused fits I have to wonder how it looks inside, when they take the jacket of. Shells are such a central part of the style that putting together a fit that looks good without one is the real challenge.

>>9301408
I doubt you should expect anything too great without it off, and you probably don't already anyway, most likely consists of warm base layers and possibly a pullover sweater depending on how cold it is, a drapey tee might be thrown in. The photographer seems to have a small crew of tech wear focused friends and this seems to be the same guy she photographs (her boyfriend apparently) in pic related

>>9299762
Just get a North Face

Wool socks aren't waterproof. It's a little silly wearing gore-tex socks with leather boots, though.
