Weekly Reminder: Techwear is Dead

[Anonymous No.11984105]

Even the God of techwear online has abandoned the aesthetic:

Sell off your tryhard Acrnoym and Veilance crap before you get stuck with unsellable $1,500 jackets, guys.

it's too early for techwear desu

wait until the glorious year of 2060 where western civilization is now a cyberpunk dystopia

Yes, unload all your expensive pieces on grailed so s/I can buy them at dirt cheap prices/ you don't get caught holding expensive pieces of fabric

Fuck off retard

who is this faggot and why should i care?
Hugh is the current god of techwear, not some faggot on reddit.

Techwear is use of technical materials and fabrics. It has it's own divisions, techninja shit like ACRNM and normal shit like Outlier.

The biggest issue with it is the paywall to get even basic shit (looking at you outlier).
Hugh's stuff (and the like) is meant to be an equal ground of form and function. Not something that is form over function (defeating the purpose of techwear in general) or function over form (where you end up with cheapshit like frog toggs or columbia).

If anything, its spread is techware slowly becoming a new norm.

i wish you techwear nerds would stay away from my beautiful minimal outlier

if you want cheap basics dont look to a company spending $150 to even produce their pants (which sell for $200)

[Anonymous No.11984252]

This. Techninjas fuck off. Don't ruin Outlier the way you autistic faggots ruined Veilance. Little dweebs like Inkinsurgent on Sufu just ran the brand into the ground. It used to be so good.

One of the reasons they cost as much as they do is because they choose to work out of NYC.

To me the issue with techwear was that hardly any of it is actually technical
I want shit that looks like futuristic clothing that is actually at the top of the technicality that clothes can be, there is no brand that offers that. It's just about jackets with shitton of straps and zippers and the most tapred cargos you can put on

[Anonymous No.11985035]

>>11985032
But Veilance isn't even the absolute top in technicality nor does it make futuristic stuff, if anything they make very stripped down reductive clothing that looks as normal as possible every day clothing with technical fabrics.

techwear is just a copout for cybergoths who are starting to question their own fashion tastes but haven't figured out how to make goggles and raver pants socially acceptable yet.

Veilance is 1000% techwear, it's even more techwear than acronym and it is top, because arcteryx is n1 outdoor brand, I don't understand what jacket should do to be top in technicality. You're clueless.

If you think you should abandon a style choice because reddit thinks it is "dead" you need to leave /fa/ and definitely never try talking about techwear again. Design and advancement in clothing is never going to stop, and that's what techwear is about.

I'm not saying it's not techwear
I'm saying that it doesn't have the kinda technicality features that would set it apart far above every other brand out there.
I can find jackets that have better waterproovnes rating and brethability. I can find jackets that allow better movement.
