How to techwear?

While most clothing is cut in standard patterns, techwear defies convention by designing technical garments that take into account the movements of the human body, coupled with a clean and original design. Beyond the aesthetics of the garments, techwear uses quality materials such as GORE-TEX to bring functionality to each garment. Whether it's breathability, water resistance, the lightness or the capacity to store your personal belongings in numerous pockets, techwear fashion proposes a new vision of comfort.

Here is a quick techwear guide to get into the trend and understand the basics to make a strong jump into techwear.

Outerwear

When you think of high-tech clothing, the first thing that comes to mind is the jacket. These are divided into two types: hard shell and soft shell.

The hard shell provides maximum weather protection and is completely windproof, waterproof and breathable. They provide a versatile outer layer under which the wearer can layer. In the case of heavy rain and snow, the hard shell is the only way to go.

The soft shell has to withstand light rainfall. Soft shell jackets usually emphasize comfort, breathability and sportiness, but they do not provide the environmental protection level that a hard shell can provide.

Mid-layers

This layer is optional and is just an additional layer below the outer layer. The middle layer usually serves to keep the wearer warm under the shell, or popular ultra-light down jackets. These can take many forms, from down vests to hoodies to insulated shirts and wool, but it can also be used for other purposes. Some components will have removable intermediate layers and linings, which are usually interchangeable in and out of the shell through some type of zipper or button system.

Base layers

This will be the root of any clothes, shirts pants and shoes. For shirts, any neutral shirt can meet the aesthetic requirements. However, if you really want it to become "high-tech clothing", then go for products with additional features.

Unique and original Techwear Pants

Techwear pants are a must-have and a key piece of your style. But above all, they have a unique style inspired by military equipment, hence the name techwear or warcore pants.

Pants in this category usually bring water repellence, breathability, elasticity and extra or deeper pockets. Acronym were pioneers in the design of techwear pants with some interesting features, including a modular system that allows the wearer to add and reduce pouches to achieve greater carrying capacity.

If you are looking for techwear pants just to enhance your aesthetic, the key is the taper at the ankle, which gives them a more tactical and streamlined appearance. The additional belts, hooks and pockets also make them more futuristic, even if they are not practical. You can also tailor the old overalls to give it the appearance of high-tech clothing.

Techwear shoes and accessories

The final touch to your fashion-forward style, whether you're looking for punk boots or sneakers, we offer a wide range of shoe styles that are as comfortable as they are stylish. With nothing to envy to the Nike ACG range, our sneakers are innovative and incredibly original.

The most tech pair of shoes would have a degree of water resistance, with Gore-tex being a coveted element of the best water-resistant shoes. But if you’re just looking for the aesthetic, you’d be just fine with the model that you like the most.

Many Techwear accessories are also available on our online store. Techwear bags with compartments for smartphones, laptops and more. Chest-rigs for the most minimalist among you, but also pants chains and other barbed necklaces to assert your offbeat style.

TECHWEAR AESTHETIC

At the beginning of its establishment, Techwear was originally a fashion sport, emphasizing the combination between aesthetics, practicality and comfort. You can see that many of its roots are military-style utilitarianism, and many of the coolest clothing still have a very militaristic tendency.

The origin of techwear, as we know and define it today, comes from the technical mountaineering clothing of the early 70s, with the drop of the first waterproof jackets.

Then, over the years, the range has expanded, both in the technical and technological field and in the models offered with designs conceptualized to the extreme: experimental cuts, materials at the cutting edge of technology, hyper-specialization of functions.

This clothing trend affects all forms of clothing as well as various accessories. Whether you want a 100% techwear look or sparingly adding a few techwear accessories to your outfit of the day, this is a style you can't do without.

Nowadays, we carry multiple devices and their respective chargers with us, so Techwear items are usually taken into account along with the storage they provide. Whether through a simple design (such as a zippered pocket) or a more sophisticated solution (such as a removable modular accessory). The combination of waterproof fabric and well-designed load-bearing capacity means you can carry more with fewer troubles. Bags and backpacks usually benefit from useful details, such as the sleeves and internal pockets/compartments of a laptop.

Beyond its practicality, techwear is also an original and flexible style. While there are techwear garments in colors and patterns, techwear is often associated with darker hues. Largely characterized by pants with straps or futuristic masks, the techwear look intrigues with its unique clothing and accessories.

However, a darker, Gothic, streetwear look can easily be complemented with a techwear garment or accessory. That's how many techwear styles emerged: urban techwear, street goth or warcore.
