TECHWEAR

Techwear is a futuristic, functional style that combines the aesthetic of cyberpunk and outdoor gear with high-tech materials. Its core idea is clothing as equipment for the city of the future: water- and wind-resistant membrane fabrics, a multitude of pockets, straps, webbing, Fastex buckles, adjustable elements, hoods and masks. The palette is mostly dark — black, graphite, khaki. Techwear places function above all but makes of it an expressive, almost futuristic-military aesthetic. The style grew out of the culture of outdoor brands (Acronym, Arc'teryx) and cyberpunk fiction. It is dress for those who value technology, mobility and 'clothing as a system'. Techwear is a modern, urban style in which engineering, function and futuristic design fuse into a whole image of a person of the technological age.
