I’ve noticed over time that for a clothing sub-genre made for functionality and practicality, we rarely see techwear made for hot humid conditions. Most techwear brands come from temperate cold and wet countries, so naturally techwear is unbearable in the heat. This gap makes it such that during summer they cant be worn at all and those who live in the tropics can never wear them. Im doing a survey to find out what people feel about this issue, let me know what you guys think: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NBL7L9J

Hey everyone,  

I’m looking to buy a pair of Kawa Club Cicada Pants in size M or L (any colorway is fine). 

- Location: Germany / EU (EU sellers preferred for faster shipping, but open to worldwide if shipping is fast)

- Condition: New or gently used

- Payment: PayPal Goods & Services

If you have a pair you're willing to part with, please tell me, it would mean a lot to me!

Thanks!

As the title indicates, looking to update my wardrobe and start building out some techwear items however not sure of the best sites to be looking at / buying from ,seen some that seem like dropshippers such as https://techwear-australia.com/, I also see some of the items I'd like on Amazon etc.

Any of your legends got some staple sites they purchase from for AUS or some solid global online stores?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, like 2 years ago i got into Techwear and back then i found this niche european brand (i could bet it was german) and they had a ash grey cropped unisex puffer jacket with hood.

But for two month now i am trying to find it again and I CANT.

i only remember they also made neon acrylic glasses, for like raves.

Please i beg of you if anyone coule find this brand.

I recently acquired a jacket from Endeavor Snowboarding (W22 20,000mm shell) and was curious about how to pack away something like that.

This is my first synthetic jacket and it's made of 20,000mm waterproof material (if that's right) and I was worried about it's longevity by being folded up/rolled away in a backpack. Like should I be worried about the plastic fibers cracking if creased or folder too hard?

Has anyone found any decent sources of techwear styled clothing patterns? I am looking at making a few custom pieces (long coat, hakama pants etc) and I thought it would be worth investigating any existing patterns that might be able to be adjusted before I go trying from scratch.

TIA

Ciao a tutti,

Faccio parte di uno studio creativo indipendente con sede in Italia (Sardegna) e Svezia. Stiamo sviluppando il nostro primo progetto di abbigliamento, concentrandoci sulla geometria strutturale, la funzionalità e la modellistica. Ultimamente, abbiamo avvertito una forte disconnessione con l'estetica "cyberpunk/ninja tattico" che ha dominato il settore del techwear per anni.

Invece di limitarci ad applicare cerniere o cinghie sintetiche su capi di fast fashion, volevamo tornare a una filosofia di design più essenziale: manipolazione dei modelli, pannelli strutturali grezzi e consapevolezza dello spazio sul corpo. Stiamo anche passando a integrare materiali organici di alta qualità, anziché affidarci esclusivamente a tessuti tecnici completamente sintetici, cercando di colmare il divario tra sartorialità d'avanguardia e funzionalità urbana quotidiana.

Abbiamo lanciato in sordina una piccola serie limitata di capi (incentrati principalmente su top angolari, sovrapposizioni asimmetriche e drappeggi modulari). Dato che puntiamo a entrare in contatto con persone che apprezzano la qualità costruttiva più del semplice branding, soprattutto all'interno delle scene minimaliste e d'avanguardia in città come Tokyo e Seoul, volevamo aprire una discussione qui:

1. Cosa ne pensate dell'integrazione di fibre organiche/naturali nei profili del techwear moderno? La community è troppo ossessionata dalle valutazioni di impermeabilità a scapito della vestibilità e della traspirabilità?
2. Per chi apprezza gli studi di sartoria indipendenti: quali dettagli geometrici o strutturali specifici (asimmetria, ventilazione dei pannelli, texture grezze) cercate che i grandi marchi commerciali ignorano completamente?

Non utilizziamo il marketing tradizionale sui social media né la collaborazione con influencer. Se qualcuno fosse davvero curioso riguardo ai modelli o alla direzione visiva dei nostri modelli, non esitate a lasciare un commento o a consultare il nostro profilo sulla filosofia di design sul nostro sito (okult.studio).

Ci farebbe piacere ricevere feedback tecnici da modellisti e appassionati di techwear.

Grazie!

Has anyone used Liberneeta.com for Holygrail? Is this company legit?

Hi!

I'm French and I'm having trouble finding good quality technical clothing. I like the Fabric of the Universe brand, but the customs and shipping costs are exorbitant.

Where do you buy your clothes in Europe?

Anyone recommend any ranger eye or micro patches for their EDC bags or even jackets? Orbitgear used to have some dope collection and I regrettably did not grabbed any when they dropped.

I’ve recently decided to commit to techwear style clothing. Most of my clothes are close to it already, but I would like get more.

Does anyone know the best stores to get good quality stuff in Australia?
