I like this style purely because of my love for cyberpunk aesthetics and army tactical gear . Great video bro 🙏🏻

[@Xozzen]

Would love a haul, because that's when you can really tell us something about the quality and if the stuff is actually worth it.

[@rayscher]

hey Antwon,Im in China, these brands arent all trash ，some brands have very less sales like Nosucism and Excuseme（this shop even handcarft their profducts） even got better quality（ofc cant compare these to acronym or other well known ones），but still keep an acceptable price. But enshadower is trash definately,they use cheap fabric ，ripped off designs，just to earn money，dont buy their clothes.

[@rayscher]

reindee lusion is a good choice too.

[@hexadecimal1517]

@@rayscher just checked out Excuseme, apparently the brand they carry is called "Symbiotic Effect" is it using technical fabrics? I like their cargo and jackets, looks very unique

[@jonaslee6880]

totally agree with you, I have a Nosucism cargo pants in 2018, it wears really good, now it still water-resist and the quality is much better than Enshadower.(I had a Enshadower pants before)

[@corbincore]

Nice video mah dude! I picked up some nosucc NS-05 trousers from aesthetic homage and used paypal to have peace of mind when purchasing. I don't think the NS-05 is a rep of anything but looks like it took inspiration from the acronym p23-s. I briefly discussed it with the bois on the discord after posting a fit pic. honestly I really love the fit and design of them. It doesn't seem to be bad quality but there is no performance out of them other than stretchy fabric and big gravity pockets. They advertised them to be water resistant but in my case, water went straight through when i tested it.

[@kaedeharakazuha1081]

As a southeast asian man, I wanna wear techwear clothing but our weather is too hot. I felt overdressed and people will stare at me cos this is not a typical style in the Philippines. I'm so jealous 😭 But i'll try to buy a simple one in taobao. Thanks for this video!

[@tonylan5324]

Nosucism is my go-to tech wear brand in China. The quality and the use of material of their products are outstanding compare to the pricing. Another brand called EXCUSEME, had a limited version jacket made entirely X-Pac material with a price tag of around 250 USD

[@deanshakes8313]

I've seen pics of this style of fashion for awhile but never knew how go break into it. Then I found your channel and binged out haha. Just a thank you and keep up the videos

[@Master-Roshi]

I've bought some Enshadower the other day (using superbuy) and i am not so pleased to be honest. I got a pair of pants and a jacket, the pants are ok but to compensate for the leg length i had to buy a larger size, the legs are still a bit short and the waist is way too big, the cargo pockets only have flaps... no velcro or buttons. The jacket look good but the material is pure shit, it feel and sound like a tarp, it is also have the thickness of a tarp, i mean there is no other layer than this tarp material. For the same price get a Condor Summit (I own one), it is way better and the only downside is a sketchy zipper. Also it did cost me 46$CAD in shipping (EMS), so never again.

[@chengsijiade]

就我而言 Enshadower 只有一个缺点：做工很差 。 希望他们找一个好的代工厂 。

[@brando8923]

Enshadower used to be just like you say, but tbh in the last season they have improved tremendously and have a few pieces well worth picking up, i grabbed a pair of cargos (featured on this channel too) and they were surprisingly decent for the money!

[@nathancook8426]

Pupil travel is my go to definitely like the overall style and comfortably haven't any issues yet I have some of their stuff for few years now

[@Aspality]

I just wanna mention a taobao brand called CATSSTAC; majority of their pieces aren't really copies afaik. Seems like the quality of their stuff is slightly higher than the other taobao techwear from the handful of reviews I've seen. Worth checking out!

[@AZuRaFPS]

Also I want your opinion on a brand called PackMack, I bought one of their shell jacket and it's really good, It is super water resistant and it cost me around 40 euros (on sale, was 80 euros normally). Also I would recommend a video on water-resistant pants that aren't straight up trailling or military, because these are hard to find. I'm personally eyeing on the TNF flight H2O pants, it looks great (for once) and is actually water resistant :)

[@JR-mk6ow]

Aperol Spritz? You are a man of culture

[@capatinswifty]

Just a heads up, i ordered a pair of trousers and a pullover "shirt" from pupil travel coming in at 300 usd, the clothing is ok quality but it seems that they have to skip out on materiel, in order to put the tactical bits and bobs on it. personally i wish i spent that money on something else. the Chrrota pants however are good quality, first bit of techwear i bought and i cant fault them.

[@sophtware_slump]

Been waitin' for this! Had to write this down before watching actual video :D

[@sophtware_slump]

Oh and new guerrilla group pants just dropped, any opinions bout it?

[@brando8923]

A taobao haul would be rad af ngl. Tbh i dont mind these companies, ive never really been into techwear for the function so a way to get good aesthetics for a decnent price is all good

[@Mister_Phafanapolis]

I was linked to Aesthetic Homage for the first time today while looking for a noragi/kimono/open cardigan. Some cool pieces at a reasonable cost but knowing they're just re-selling cheap, Walmart-tier clothing makes me now scoff at the prices. Thank Die Antwoord!

[@MegumiHayashida]

Yes, A.H. are clearly dropshipping stuff. ENSHADOWER are official, some pants are not what the website quality portrays but you can always find similar shit for cheap on aliexpress tbqh

[@MegumiHayashida]

@@TheCalotus BTW I ordered only once from Aesthetic Homage and the shipping process took a whole month, that tells alot... ENSHADOWER is a growing brand, even their marketing campaigns are professional. Not only the quality is decent at reasonable prices but I personally never encountered any problem with the tracking/shipping (under COVID) + they use DHL Express.

[@AZuRaFPS]

hey aperol spritz, great idea, this video helps seeking for stuff other than the main brands, thank you for the tips !

[@uhis1686]

aestethic homage is actually a great place to get stuff like this, got me some shadower stuff on there and it's not bad but for sure not great performance. actually have the Chrrota pants and they are pretty nice, especially the velcro on the bottom. would agree tho to only use this to order the cheap stuff on there, definitely not the jackets

[@Tiger24kicks]

Want to ask you a question is the Bike Aeroloft 3 in 1 tech jacket really considered tech wear ?

[@araleph]

Hey Antwon, might be opening up a can of worms here but what are your thoughts about these taobao brands that do some blatant knockoff pieces (e.g. PTK-813) but at the same time have some pieces that are their own original take of techwear? Would you still buy from them? Or maybe avoid them completely or only get their original pieces?

[@9804216]

I would totally avoid Tao Bao. It's a selling site full of a lot of pirated and knock-off items.

[@ThisIsAntwon]

I would prefer to support brands who come up with their own designs rather than knocking off products. However to an extent I think it's important to judge individual items on their own merits. If a brand makes both knock-off and unique designs, buying the unique stuff (and not supporting the knock-offs) still sends a signal to that brand that it's worth making the effort to create unique products.

[@lacanian_lifter]

[@ThisIsAntwon]

They just resell stuff from the Taobao brands at a mark-up, so if you can they're worth avoiding and going direct instead

[@brianmarwa8320]

I was wondering when you would bring up taobao. I got jogger pants from enshadower and I had to use google translate to make my order and get it shipped to the US.

[@spicefinchqadir9994]

BRIAN MARWA how did it go? Do you like em?

[@brianmarwa8320]

The pants are fine they fit well, the only thing that bothered me was the material it felt kind of cheap. Shipping took some time I think 3 weeks. Overall I was satisfied with my purchase. This was my first purchase though, so I hope to buy more clothes from taobao in the future.

[@ThisIsAntwon]

@@brianmarwa8320 Glad to hear they fit well and you managed to get an order through. The material quality does seem like a common complaint with these brands though unfortunately

[@anirbanmukherjee3627]

More taobao/diy please, also could you maybe do a lookbook? Just a thought

[@XI-A.m]

aye always dig ur shirts in the videos, what brands should i be looking at for a more boxy fit with a tight neck like that? preciate it in advance

[@javaally1203]

IAMNOCTURNAL has cheap asymetrical shirts and the sizes are a tad smaller than advertized but the material is strechy so if you are toned as I am they will fit pretty deceent

[@rodry751]

I like teachwear but i don't buy clothew with a lot of straps and unnecessary pockets, I liie to buy cargos with 2 extra pockets and I buy solid windbreakers

[@ThisIsAntwon]

You got the right idea!

[@kiranovopashina3058]

Is tech wear mostly brand based fashion, or is it more just style so like can I get extremely cheap/thrifted stuff and call it tech wear?

[@localforearm1627]

anybody have the pupil travel 3a knockoff? or maybe the mounsell 3a lookin thing. i just wanna know if it'll hold up in use

I got chrrota pants, theyre awesome.

[@Chefmaddix]

its difficult being in the us and ordering things because it could take months to get after ordered. iv beein looking for u.s only techwear brands, or at least stuff sold in the us. but sadly cant really find anything. if anyone has any recommendations that would be of help.

[@utkn]

Not true, if you use dhl or ems you'll get your stuff within a week.

[@hecate8968]

ngl for me the biggest appeal is the availability second to price. so hard to find info or search for "cargo" pants on grailed or something to find something that is techwear-esque, when these brands know the exact look that people want at a price that is absolutely reasonable. kinda "why would i spend days/months looking for some rarely in stock acronym cargos to pay 300$ for pants that might not even fit me well" yfm

High every one I for one am very impressed by what I’ve seen out here as far as tech wear goes I’m trying to build my own wardrobe so I’ve bought my first pair tech wear like pants called nicepce not sure if I’d spelled it correctly though but any check it out on amazon I got them for 32 usd and found that they are like the real thing they have great functionality such as water resistant can be worn in the winter,fall,summer season and have keep me very dry for those who know St. Louis weather. And I’ve incorporated some of Jordan brands into it as well such as his jump man reacts wich provides its own function such water resistant lightweight even though there basketball shoes . My other things I’ve added are of Nike brand shirts that are dri fit like one I have a Nike shirt with a zipper pocket that goes well with my tech wear pants there are a lot of brands out there that contribute to the tech wear universe like excersion for instants have water resistant attire jackets like soft shell to full winter jackets now to be completely honest the winter jackets you do have to layer underneath to keep warm but still can add to the more technical factor without braking the bank so I guess where I’m going you really don’t need acg , holy grail, fear of god exc.exc. Purely overrated stuff sure this stuff would be nice to have but there other brands you could have that is very much so techwear are could be considered as such
