I like that you covered both some of the common pitfalls or areas to avoid as well as positive advice of where you could start or interesting brands to try out. Honest and comprehensive all round too - good stuff! Appreciate the shout-out for suffering drop-shipped clothing too haha
I really appreciate you making this video! It really gives you insight on a lot of things surrounding techwear. I was also wondering what brand the pants you’re wearing at 9:12 are from. They seem very comfortable :)
I used to wear a bit of hiking wear (as opposed to hikercore) so I found a good match when I looked into techwear around half a year ago. Some of my first pickups is the Uniqlo blocktech parka, a pair of 20usd black skinny cargos, and a Kioxia USB stick that I strung up to make a necklace out of. Still hoping to slowly grow my wardrobe in the future but at least those initial pieces helped me define a silhouette I really like.
Hiking apparels are always a great place to start off any functional wardrobe! It does take time but I think the process is building a wardrobe is really fun to so hope you will enjoy the process ^.^
While I'm a fan of techwear, I do sort-of go for more of a miltech style (BDU's basically) since it's what I'm used to and comfortable wearing considering the years of being in the military. Warcore is, imho, an irritating form of cosplay, especially since most don't actually have combat experience - but to each their own. I do wish I could find actual "tech" wear though, in various materials and patterns that obfuscate surveillance cameras (IR, NV, and Normal) as well as provide various things like cable management / USB cable extensions within the clothing. There was a guy that did a SQL injection attack using his license plate as well as another that used QR codes to install a small game; I wonder if the ideas could be merged?
That sounds more like "hacker clothes" than techwear but still sounds cool. There's a hoodie (The Camera-Shy Hoodie), I read an article on a little while ago that blinds cctv cameras.
this is a really good video, touches a lot of good points. i think its important to understand that techwear has so many depths different to something like streetwear, be patient and take your time building your wardbrobe and outfits.
Spot on. There are so much layers and depth into functional wear which makes it both unique but can be very intimidating for those who just got started out.
I'm about to start my tech-wear adventure now that my area of the world is going towards summer.. XD This video and the video about how you build a summer outfit really helped me out! I enjoy the 'slower' pace in your videos. You take your time explaining everything. Good job!
my favorite "look" in techwear is not the super baggy bottom look. i like a more tailored fit for the bottoms (it's okay if it's a little baggy but at least it tapers down) and i'm okay with medium slightly oversized tops. i love the pants that i see at 7:03, but i don't know enough about techwear to know if they're actually "tech" wear. do you know what those are? do you have recommendations for techwear that is of quality but more of that look? for me, i feel that stuff like acronym is too puffy or baggy in the pants for me.
i dont know if you still need this information, but those pants are usually the copy-pasted pants that every drop shipper sells. Generally not worth the money. For something similar in appearance you can get the 042 stevens by reindee lusion, but they arent very breatheable, perfect for the upcoming winter though
I unfortunately don't have enough money to buy the techwear clothing but I managed to make my own techwear clothing style it consists of the black waterproof rain coat possibly cheap or expensive don't know a black and white t-shirt from kmart either black jeans black pants or black shorts black shoes black hat a black fingerless glove a multifunctional headwear a nerf gun a nerf vest a black neck warmer a black motorbike riding glove and a black running belt to hold your phone in
This is a welcome video with some great advice. I particularly appreciated your points about mental health and financial planning when building a wardrobe.
Thanks! Hopefully there was something everyone can take away from ^.^ yes I do find there is a strong tie between fashion and mental health in today's time which needs to be address
recently got into techwear my first pick up was actually an orbit gear m100 bag then the uniqlo blocktech jacket! luckily I work for the company that owns uniqlo so i get a nice discount there
That so cool that you work for Fast Retailing!! haha that was pretty much my starter picks as well! ^.^ Great choices and so easy to wear as everyday wear
@@Ruey14 I work at theory and they use a cool tech material called neoteric which is moister wickening, breathable, and water repellant. the Zaine jogger is great anyone looking for that clean gray man style!

Warcore is overrated in my opinion.
Step 1: Watch Anime

Techwear is about pretending to be into computers and hacking and fighting mega corporations while wearing very expensive mege corporations logos.

I like lite Techwear, with a futuristic/functional bottom and a t-shirt and vice versa. Good for 90 degree weather, and not looking too edgy
Solid choice right there finding a good balance! ^.^
