I think fashion and streetwear in general have really seen an explosion of popularity during the pandemic. Ironically when people can't go out they start to think about what to wear 🤣

I saw a 70 ish year old lady covered completly with a full impermeable suit and goggles and the colors were very steampunk. xD I think techwear cant and wont be mainstream. its just a reality that will eventually become commun when the weather and conditions get crazier and crazier all around earth. despite our desires towars or agains it

Techwear as functional clothing is phenomenal. The good brands tend to be a little behind the times when it comes to advances in the industry but they're very function/purpose driven. Techwear as a fashion is a joke that the fans don't seem to be in on.

Honestly Techwear looks like it'd be perfect to wear in cold weather. I was introduced to this yesterday and I'm already obsessed.

Techwear was pretty well defined before cheap techwear brands came along and blurred the lines by refering to themselves as techwear. In my opinion the original side of techwear is a fashion style and the newer "techwear" is more akin to cosplay in most cases, which is fine if that's what you like but I just wish they'd refer to themselves as warcore or darkwear instead of techwear so the techwear subs and hashtags aren't flooded with edgy cosplay from aliexpress, saturated with straps and japanese writing. Tangent aside, really great video, keep it up and the subs will come.

I think I've been unknowingly doing this for years now, I like stuff that's functional and comfortable even though I probably look like a utilitarian mess.

TECHWEAR > DARKWEAR & NINJAWEAR

Nice, short and simple explanation for the definition of techwear man. Been following this sense of style for 5 years now and it's really a journey itself, nowadays the definition of techwear is faded into overly strapy ninja like taobao aesthetic that inspires from techwear itself. I do hope that techwear do rise again but with more affordability to what u buy from the piece.

Honestly I don't want techwear to be mainstream it makes it unique when you come across someone who wears it

tech wear: when you want utility oriented/military clothing but also look like a goth cosplayer

I recently came across this style and I am both super nervous and excited to try it out. My husband isn’t completely down with it but will stick by me no matter what. So I’m probably going to start pretty tame. But I can’t wait!

Incredible video! This was the best introduction that it was given to me about what is "TECHWEAR", I'm really glad and I will explore this new style of clothing even further! Thanks !!!

My take on "techwear" is striking good balance between function and form. Examples of functions are water & wind resistence, breathability, packability, carryability (I made this word up), quick dryness, mobility, etc. Of course form is about looking cool! On such scale, I find ACRONYM, Veilance, SISP and Nikelab ACG (suprise surprise all of these have Errolson's involved) are/were doing a great job. Sadly, they do cost A LOT, but think about the crazy processes behind - R&D, pattern making, etc., the products do worth the price tags. Same as other expensive hobbies, "techwear" is probably one of them. Given the price tag and the niche interest, I don't think it will "be dead", but also won't go real mainstream. I do find it's a good thing!

techwear in Japan and China is a "trend". reminds to the people, ninja, naruto etc. also, I know that techwear items a few years ago wasfor the job. For protecting people from the weather, etc. i love techwear ..is awesome, dark, "ninja"

After watching the video I was floored to find out how small your channel is, if you keep up with this quality of content I’m sure your channel will grow exponentially. If you want the advice of someone who’s wholly unqualified to give advice, I think you should try to incorporate a bit more humor and or more casual parts into the video so it’s less like a spoken essay with pictures. While the essay format is reliable, and is the most efficient way to get across information, it’s not always the most entertaining way to get across information. But as long as a video essay is the backbone of your content, yet subtly it will work fantastically. Cant wait to see you grow!

Why does this channel has a professional kind of concept delivery or some sort but it's not famous??

Very Nicely done Vid I will admit thats How I started in techwear was with the cheap stuff thats how I got my foot in the Door coming to the subculture But people can buy the cheap stuff and make last for 5 to 10 + years you just have to take care of it Nice things about Cyberpunk darkwear warcore and techwear is they all look good with mixs and blends the subcultures Mix great together what I think what would really kill the subculture is gatekeeping why Limit it when we have great subcultures like goth then expanded in more subsecs like cyber pastel goths and these are huge today

bro dropped 3 fire videos then dipped

The algorithm dropped me here after watching "This is Antwon" LOL. Great video I've alway liked the style but didnt know it had a bigger story.

I fucking love techwear and will be rocking with it in 2023.

5 seconds in and I knew this was going to be quality content. I was not wrong. Subscribed.

Good summary and great production quality! Surprised you have such few subs.

I can think of a few "cheap techwear" influencers that could benefit from watching this video...

Ideas inspire Fashion . Techwear is inspired by Nihilism and it is a protest of a Cyberpunk dystopia we live in , it's not just a garment but THE GARMENT OF PROTEST AND REVOLUTION. this is a physical philosophy unfolding right before our eyes. I am a Concept Artist obsesssed with Existentialism and Sci fi Cyberpunk Dystopias and Post apocalypse. Techwear will only evolve

Head First and Pyxis are some of my favorite songs too!

Ain't NOBODY gonna pay 100 plus for some cargo pants. Its an insult to utilitarianism. The whole purpose of it is that you pay for what works and that's that.

Super dope and informational video! Super underrated

so THIS is the aesthetic Arknights is going for

Pajama and a comfy t-shirt is a techware in some context 😆

If it's a style that's going to be around for a while then it has to even out. The cheap brands have to grow into quality brands, and the already quality expensive brands need to have more accessible options if they don't already. They'll also need to tone down the flash and turn up the function. I think it'll be the people who figure out how to fuse a classic aesthetic and function. It looks too much like a style instead rather than someone's look. Meaning most people won't mature into it they'll just go a different way. If they do stick with it, chances are they'll figure out how to tone it down. With what I see now, it just looks like a pain in the ass to put together and even more so to pull off. If people actually use all the pockets they have how often do they pause to remember or dig through which pocket/compartment has whatever they're looking for? It also seems like a style that's trying to reinvent what already works, a simple bag. Obviously this is all some random dude's opinion. It's not a style or clothing pieces I'd go for. When an outfit comes with a learning curve I've done too much. It also does the exact opposite of what my style does, which is grab attention. And it holds it. It's such a unique style too, that everyone that rocks it, looks the same. To me it's in such a trend phase it comes off as a try hard style, and I don't mean for that to sound shitty. I look at a simple trucker jacket and wonder what techwear has over that. Again it falls back into trying hard and reinvent what already is simple, clean, and works with nothing extra. It's the lack of all the extra that makes it look good. Makes anything look good. Maybe techwear has reached its level of mainstream and this feeling of it dying is a result. Once a certain threshold of people and lesser but numerous brands have come to it, it's over. The original wearers can smell the money grab.

*slaps roof of techwear* this bad boy can fit so many tater tots in it

I will bet money that because of lockdown people are going to start wearing this stuff and everyone is going to look like the npcs out of cyber punk 2077 lol

"visual" techwear are just people who don't like doing their homework.

Nice video

hold up... so "techwear" is just overpriced military gear for anime fans?

Just a quick clarification - Gore-Tex is not teflon. It uses teflon in its construction but it is more complex than that.

I like this vid. I used to know this girls who would say, "pesto is a concept." Then she would mix whatever she wanted into pesto and call it pesto. Techwear is a concept...

So is techwear the urban version of outdoor clothing? For instance, I only know Arc'teryx as a purely outdoor brand.

Maybe I'm just old, but I personally always associate punk fashion with cyberpunk rather than techwear.

techwear makes Tripp NYC pants seem affordable, fucking seriously I'll pay 100 for high quality cargo pants that even the women's can fit a 2 liter in the pockets of over a jacket that costs well over double that has a built in fanny pack and just adds more pockets without fixing a major issue with most pants in general of very limited pocket size

Techwear is like sushi: There are a ton of ways to fuck it up but you can't go wrong with the basics. Also if you're concerned with "death of techwear" it wasn't ever your style to begin with. I don't care about trends. Same reason why that Supreme shit was not appealing to me. I think the problem is with the word "techwear". If were talking about that specifically, yes, the hype ruined it with all the wannabes on Instagram and clout chasers. "Techwear" I think is not dying but becoming more of a confining term for the style since it is in fact evolving. To be honest I'm glad its "dying" since the entire community are gate-keeper elitists. At the end of the day, you're only considered "into techwear" if you have an ACRONYM wardrobe which is funny because all that really is, is high-end fashion. I'm guilty of this too so no hate. The essence of techwear isn't one thing...and its not easily attainable...yet, not hard to accomplish. Its like sushi.

Be very careful around gore-Tex aka Teflon

Is there a such thing as female techwear?

Is SuperDry considered “Techwear”?

Hey I checked your other videos and wanted to ask are you gonna start doing more fashion related content ?

Acronym...

Suprised there was no Scarlxrd mentions

Techwear is the critique of capitalism and Dystopias not the embodiment of it .

I love the utility of techwear and it doesn't have to be expensive or too flashy but i enjoy the flashy stuff too lol, to me it is inconsequential if techwear goes mainstream because im wearing it for the utility it provides not for impressing anyone.

Canadian, Chinese, Jamaican lol.

Techwear may look fashionable, but the overpriced nature of the clothing is the exact opposite of the cyberpunk spirit of 'high tech, low life'. It's ironic that in real life, techwear is reserved for the corpo villains of the real world

Yalllreadyknow

Look techwear actually looks nice, it sorta makes me think of goth/edgy style, but technological and with ninjaesque style. The issue is that there's no way that's a style you can sport often unless you live somewhere the temperature is often below 20°C (68°F), but also not below 10°C (50°F).

Im starting to think techwear isnt really a thing, every video and thumbnail is the same couple of “influencers” and that angry looking japanese man staring off into space. Show me a candid techwearer, not someone modeling for their own camera.

pickpocket god damn it tissue papers again?!

So it's like Gucci but for edgy people
