I Bought AliExpress Clothing So You Don't Have to ｜ Techwear Review

[@sac4i]

PSA: wash these clothes first, you do not want to be in direct contact with any chemical residue found on these clothes! same goes for stuff from taobao too

[@chrisogrady28]

I never wear new clothes before washing

[@luigilan799]

@monsterm7578 are u stupid? its well known you should wash new cloths before wearing them, especially when theyre cheaply mass produced

[@hugocanuto6981]

​@MuoMuo why make everything political

[@afroteddybear]

Industrial manufacturer tends to use harsher and more efficient chemicals that are inherently "safe" in the production process, but may cause irritation or have an allergic reaction for some. Hence, washing is good practice to ensure that they are more comfortable to wear with fewer risks of irritation. Also, washing clothes before wear has a comforting effect because it smells and "feels" yours beforehand.

[@stepahead5944]

​@monsterm7578Everything isn't automatically a conspiracy just bc you are ignorant of it.

[@munkeypants1]

I could watch a video of these label typos for hours and hours. They remind me of the unintentionally hilarious book “English As She Is Spoke” (which can be found as PDF online)

[@Gnurklesquimp]

The dichotomy between every process that goes into producing something on a large scale and then this one dude high on factory fumes that was in charge of the labels is kind of amazing. Actually, I like the idea of a boardroom carefully coming up with this even more.

This craft is not shit!

"To crunch a marmoset" Sometimes I hate autocorrect. That should be "craunch" (at least according to the Book of Heroic Failures...)

I would pay for some irony typos printed on a T-shirt, like that "ATTENTION" tag, the "This craft is not a shit" killed me xDDD

I 😂 so hard every time “the slap” appears 🤣

[@VigilantAnarchism]

One thing I started to do once I stopped buying from these “knock-off” stores, was going to some of the stores I regularly buy from (Zara for example) and grab up pieces that I believe fit into that “techwear” aesthetic, and so far, I’ve been rather successful…and recently I’ve started getting more involved in Nike’s ACG lineup, and I’ve been picking out stuff there as well…saves me the headache sometimes…

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Good advice!

[@simonrockstream]

love u man, great vids. The background music has become iconic btw, love it haha

These are my favorite videos from you!

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Thanks! Guess that means I've gotta order more stuff in future 😭

[@DrLovebot]

The faint slapping in the background was the best part of the vid lol, great job Amphitheater. Also what are your thoughts on the new Acronym x Nike collab?

[@pabloqueima]

Great, this is the kind of videos I wanted because you can't really find a lot of "reviews" on those brands. The lower tier techwear like nosucism, silenstorm, reindee lusion, riot division, etc.

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Glad you found it useful!

[@astaxd_1019]

I honestly don’t care if techwear is an unknown brand or seller or a counterfeit of a well known one such as holy grail. I just care about the look, and the feel.

[@danylol772]

But then that's not actually techwear, tough, that's just cosplaying as techwear. The idea of high performance materials, construction and the look is all part of what "techwear" is. Get rid of one of them, and it's no longer techwear.

[@spareless3694]

@@danylol772 don't forget that it has to be pricey to be techwear. people just gatekeep techwear to make themselves feel like they afford things that most people can't-- instead of actually focusing on the materials and constructions.

[@godeaterskye]

I just want to say at 0:46 (bottom middle) Nev charges 25$ less than the real designer's(Guapi) product and sometimes become more expensive when the real thing goes on sale. A rep becoming more expensive than the real thing makes me blows my mind. I even got asked if that's where I got them. The real ones have branded zipper pulls, premium fabric along with a coating of some sort and ship faster(in the states) the fact someone thought I was wearing cheap dropship while supporting the actual designer made me sick. You can get good clothes without going dropship!!! They even stole his photos for the listings. I skate in them, if I skated in the nev ones they'd probably rip in 5 minutes. I wrote this here to satisfy my inner fashion blog.

Antwon, your videos are so helpful, thanks for all the info! Do you have any advice on how to find high-performance breathable clothes LIKE techwear? You said most stores don't use that term, so is there a term they *_would_* use?

Thank you for making this video!!! I’ve been hoping you would make something of this sort ever since I discovered your channel!!!

getting recommended some more interesting fashion videos and it is great. plus this is entertaining lol

[@ion_q]

Im still trying to understand. so confusing, the numbers are all over the place. length just right, but sleeve too short, and bust too wide. all at the same time. its like trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle. I've been sitting on one purchase for nearly 3 weeks, measuring and remeasuring trying to choose whether my US Mens Medium is closest to the Asian AliExpress XL or XXL. I still have not figured it out. I remember I did go through this once but cant remember if it was XL or XXL that worked for me 4 years ago.

Do you think you could make a review video on the Quikflip reversible backpack jacket? It’s one of the more lower end technical garments I’ve seen. (it first appeared on shark tank) I’m thinking of buying one soon.

[@madballz5481]

Can you do a video covering some fabric of the universe pieces, specifically some of their cargos. I own one of their hoodies which have pretty decent quality, but I've always wondered what the quality of their cargos are like.

Whats the jacket you wearing in the video?

[@hazonku]

My Singleroad pants showed up today. I got the green ones in a 4X & they're okay. I'm 6'1" and 215lbs and the 4X fit fine on me. The green is WAY darker than the photos but that was actually a welcomed surprise. The back right pocket was shoddily sewn together in one spot but that tore open without the pocket falling apart. For the price & fit I really can't complain. Good find, Antwon. 👍

When I*

[@tennesseedanielauthor1825]

You have to call your bank and let them know you will be ordering from AE and authorize all future purchases. Otherwise they will either cancel or hold until you do. Best be proactive that way . I’ve been ordering items for over 13 years with only a few orders that had to be refunded (always a quick process), and a few products that I should have read the find print first. Reviews matter! Go with one who has legit reviews with photos. If you find a product you like, scroll down and you will find more images and details versus the 1-8 that are shown in the product windows. To buy something, an item MUST be in your cart first. Max of 100 items. If you want more than one of an item, add it if you have an issue filling up that cart like I do, then get around the quantity by increasing the quantity in the cart menu. If you look at the item in stock to add to cart, you will see a red number showing how many of the product is available. They usually start at 999 and I’ve bought out the last of many for a different category (paper/journaling). Also, if you cannot add to cart check the number available: they might be sold out and will be labeled as Null or sold out. Hope this helps!

[@firewulf1]

Some of my favourites are from Alpha Motif, Goopimade and _coded but there are loads of brands out there including DSPTCH and Bagjack who specifically make accessories, and lots of outdoor/performance brands will also do belts.

Nike ACG Mowabb! There's a review on them a month or two back, but I really like them overall

[@Ezekiel_Allium]

I wonder if the "v make it..." weirdness comes from them using speech to text software? It might make sense, if you speak English but only know how to write it using your own writing system you could use that to write this stuff out for you. Would explain them not checking for typos at all and the weirdness of stuff like using V for we, which instantly seemed to me like some software struggling to understand an accent.

I almost pulled the trigger on some Silenstorm moly-webbing cargoes a couple of years ago, everything about them seemed just a slight step more thoughtful. While I'm glad I didn't make a purchase at that time, I'm surprised by how happy I am to see they're still going and have new (borrowed) designs; while there's plenty wrong with it, there's nothing inherently worse here than what H&M or Zara are doing, or like the clothes one buys at Walmart. One of my fave "cheap teachwear" vids you've done, glad there's less disappointment.
