IMO pants are the most important part of the fit. Some heavy tech pants, tapered cargos etc. with a basic t-shirt still conveys the tech aesthetic.. Where as a tech-y shirt or jacket with plain jeans or anything else just looks ridiculous XD Just putting my 2 cents out there. Opinions?

[@xxerox808]

Fully agree with this. Got a pair of Enfin Leve pants and pretty much anything I wear with them, provided it's black or white, looks ‘correct’ so to speak.

[@mishkoala]

xxerox Excellent, just try to stay away from cotton pants, I try and aim for nylon so the colour doesn't fade as easily. I bought some really nice black 4-pocket pants (I think they're called) from Riot Division and they faded pretty fast. But I'm planning to grab some of their new ones, they're more of a nylon blend, so I'll give them a go 👍

[@mishkoala]

Agree to all that, I like RD because their shop is 15 mins away from me, so It's worth the cost to just go grab pieces without worrying about shipping and all that nonsense. Plus they've come a ways, material-wise, in the past year.

[@xxerox808]

That totally makes sense. I'd do the same in your shoes. Really helps being able to see things in person. Shopping online is terrible in many ways.

[@FashionRoadman]

Mishko Lahoda I agree 100%

[@Hirokee_]

I love how antwon's face matches his jumper 10/10 color coordination

[@GrinReaper59]

Thought this was actually melody for a sec lol

[@MegaMuff420]

5-11 Tactical makes amazing, great looking cargos with hella pockets at a very reasonable price.

[@rammo2k]

thanks anthill casting, i was the one asking about cheap cargos on instagram. this vid was perfect for me

[@PCO231]

Been waiting for this one, good look mate

[@calmsyy]

The "dunno what you mean tbh" just killed me Awesome video as always!

[@travisjohn5978]

Those exact Nike pants I was able to find at a Burlington and a couple other generations at places like Marshalls, TJmaxx and Sierra from 25-35 usd. I've also been very impressed with some of the Levi cargos and at closeout stores on clearance grabbing them for $15 is great. There is definitely some " regular " clothes that styles correctly can fit this look and some of them do include some sort of performance and or utility functions.

[@elgame6263]

Awesome video very helpfull as always!

[@existence9158]

Taobao haul video please, its what the people need!

[@minimaldrobe8263]

Would LOVE a video about the hiker core aesthetic you keep flagging up. I find it really intriguing as someone who has to be out a lot with my dog who has to have an hour or so of exercise outdoors every day.

[@SiimKuusik]

I need the Taobao video. That seems right up my alley.

[@spicypotatoes301]

So I really like the aesthetic of these pants, and I do alot of parkour so I'd like to use a pair of these while doing it. Which of these is the most comfortable/flexible pair of pants on this list? Thank you!

[@EzeTarget]

Great video as always ! I'm definetly for a Taobao video, so we can get your opinion on the matter.

[@abdielj.sanchez9152]

I don't know how you guys missed Oakley's Latch collection last fall, I've got the pants and they almost look like legit Acrnm stuff, water resistant and everything, costed me like $70 CAD on sale.

[@KennyKiller3000]

if you're going to make a video about military surplus clothing that is usable for techwear, or a video about affordable jackets, you'd might like the Bundeswehr Flecktarn Parka. It's the Parka of the german army, usually aviable for around 30 bucks, it has many pockets, drawstrings to alter the silhouette and there are tactical zippers at the arm pits for venting in the summer. It's in a camouflage pattern though, but you can dye it black as an easy diy project.

[@ukigaminghd1393]

How about pupil travel ninja pants thingy? are those good?

[@abellerane9110]

Nice Sir. Youre great man.

[@michaelsurridge8328]

I would love to see you review some cloudburst tech wear stuff but it’s so expensive.

[@WEF2030SLAVE]

Thanks Antwon

[@velvetcarrot3464]

I have the Uniqlo pants, they are very straight but at the cuffs there are elastic with toggles so you can cinch them at your ankles. Not exactly a taper but brings them more in. Also, water beads right off of them and the tag claimed its water resistant due to the way the fabric is woven or something.

[@CMIRA]

I can confirm about the uniqlo cargos as well. I didn't even need to cinch them when I've rolled them up. Nice and lightweight for summer

[@JFANderful]

Mines are actually pretty slim. Weird

[@velvetcarrot3464]

I would say they are very slim as well, just no taper in the legs at all.

[@JFANderful]

Velvet Carrot thats true. the crop makes it work tho. completely different fit from the model images

[@brysonallen5219]

Riot division has some summer pants out now and check out CQR pants on Amazon. I get them tapered and elastic cuffs

[@DoomagaGames]

Hey Antwon, are you not rating the cotton Twill versions of Enfin Leve?

[@ColeTanaka]

can you do a techwear belts video?

[@drillcake]

what about Samurai pants? i think is pretty cool? what would u think?

[@Kero_81]

two dope boys in a cadillac

[@X_x77x_X]

Thanks bro

[@718NecroLeX]

Can i get a video on techwear that isnt all black i know theyre sometimes synonymous but im curious

[@tomusannonymous]

some work pant cargos can be a bit techweary, but often not so tapered and no straps. There are jogger ones too. Most are cotton drill so very durable. the budget conscious can also claim it on tax as a work expense ;)

[@lucastuthill1856]

I got a pair of black storm cargos from lorenzo verratti, really comfy and a absolute bargain for £60

[@echo3xo]

i swear by hollister stretch joggers- sounds dumb, but you can get techwear inspired one, utility ones, basic joggers too. they all look like cargos, and feel like them as well; i love the black camo ones rn w/ some grey tactical boots n a tee

[@hauwnter2958]

Should've included the UNIQLO stretch cargo ankle pants. They don't have them on the website anymore I guess they just sold out but I just bought some like a week ago

[@ThiDo164]

really helpfull i searched for and didn't find too much bcs i don't have that much money ^^ so thanks alot i really like the once from uniqol but i'll probably gonna change the fit or my sister i should say XD

[@mdforbes500]

Taobao haul vid would be sweet.

[@NateZ6]

My local Nike outlet store still has a slew of the Bonded cargo pants (861526) in stock for $65, which have waterproof zipper pockets (lol) on both legs. Bought one for every color lol

[@mags3376]

Yo what colors? I’d be interested in copping from you!

[@corbin7020]

Another great video, man! I'm a hoe for Uniqlo tbh As a university student, I really appreciate the quality, functionality, style, and affordability of Uniqlo. Ive been on the hunt for some baggy water resistant pants to hem above the ankle and taper

[@Wolf-ny6bz]

What about waterproof pants? Do you know any?

[@Lukas-gn5yf]

3:25 is there something for the EU ???

[@romanmalik740]

[@Lovely_planet]

sucks the purna is no where to be found, there were sizes around my waist :(

[@samuellau2087]

Taobao haul review pls!

[@xsieferx6738]

I'd LOVE to see an Aliexpress/DH Gate/TaoBao haul video!! I get tired of seeing brand name this and that all the time that costs an arm and leg, you can find some wicked and weird stuff on taobao for super cheap And no one ever reviews or shows hauls from taobao!?!

[@ThisIsAntwon]

I will do something around Taobao brands at some point, just gotta collect up exactly what I want first. Probably when Winter starts coming around again

[@andrewmartinez5048]

I never knew what my preferred style is/was called until now.

[@sraine1772]

Love ur channel home I love jc lol

[@SewMuchBlack]

great, i have a typo in the answer t 30m3s comment you put into the video :D. some more controversial pants you mentioned there. instead of mentioning the controversy about them you could have concentrated more on the functuon even the harem pants or so have, like freedom of movement. for example i saw some videos of people doing parkour/freerunning in these harem pants - which acrnm also utilised in its acrnmjitsu commercial. you also didnt mention breathability or water resistance on most of the pants alternatives you covered, maybe you could have put some information into the vid that people can dwr treat these pants allthough they dont have inherent waterproofness. also some info about the breathability of these garments could have been nice allthough that is hard in this kind of videos where you dont have hands-on experience , especially with things like breathability which dies not have a unified measurement standard. after all, most of us wear techwear for some kind of function, not just looks. but - nice video, thanks for sharing, keep it up!

[@robertmech3069]

only a month later and it's impossible to find the nike bonded wovens in S :(

[@ThisIsAntwon]

RIP - they do often seem pretty popular

[@EnvyTraxus]

Do any Canadian retailers sell those particular or any pair of bonded Nike pants? I can never find any.

[@G_BLASTER]

Nike.ca

[@hotingpong]

They have it at the nike running stores

[@EnvyTraxus]

hotingpong thanks, I'll check out Eaton centre

[@hauwnter2958]

Found em

[@FashionRoadman]

I’m 6’3 but have extremely long legs so no trouser is ever my size as I’m a W32 L36. Do you have recommendations for us disproportional people 😂🤧

[@benwilliams8534]

I’m just starting to get into basic techwear, does anybody know where I can get super skinny cargo pants?

[@mikaelmonten3786]

Blacktailor or Aliexpress

[@theshadow4393]

tech coats ?

[@30m3]

Check out Sever clothing on END clothing. It's a russian brand that have started making tech wear. The pieces look interesting and made from some of the best techy materials out there.

[@krakapoww]

30m3 that sever jacket is one of the techiest jackets ive ever seen

[@30m3]

Yes! The detachable one is mad! The hooded membrane one though is probably the nicest tech wear jacket I've ever seen. I might have to pull the trigger on it.

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Thanks! I did see that pop up on End, interesting for sure but pretty pricy stuff. Also they seem like a very new brand so not really heard anyone's opinions on material quality etc

[@LilBsYearOldVans]

Yes to the Taobao vid. Tao seems like this restricted goldmine to me for some reason, probably just because I can't use it tho

[@NVFM11111]

my frinnd, heres a lifehack of a year, thats what i do for a while now, you go to cheap but fashiony shops h&m zara etc... you find some skinny cargos, take 2 sizes up, cuff them tighter, roll them up twist outside of the seam as far as you can towaqds inside (below knee) to keep trhem tight you put in rubber band in the cuff you made so thet dont unroll, put the side pockets where you feel comfortable and kaboom, you look like cyber ninja

[@NLPexperts]

You didn't even buy a pair of any of them to test what do you know ? Best tech trousers are cofra Maastricht, tech wear is about STAIN Resistance, that is key, u not mention it once.

[@XYZ-mx9om]

There's a chinese techwear brand called Enshadower pls review it

[@aronvandepol]

I personally bought a coat from them. if you have any questions let me know.

[@nicholaschoi7402]

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Yup P25 is the one!

[@zroform7004]

Most of the links are outdated or the pants are sold out or unavailable (only 2 links work and expect to spend 60+$)

This is quite an old video now but I'll be looking at making new affordable-based content for this year so there's something more relevant out there

CLICK BAITED with those CHRROTA pants in the thumbnail. Would love a Taobao haul vid.

[@williammclean6594]

I don't get like how a lot of techwear pants are like $600 who can afford that if they lowered their prices a little bit they probably expand their sales in their audience instead of only catering towards that's specific Market

[@Xxassass1n021xX]

Just gonna taper my dad's work cargo pants, they're worn and slightly faded, its gonna look tight asf

[@lucif32]

Those cheap taobao techwear pants are crap. Even if it's made of cotton, the quality in consistent. Length of the leg strap are of unequal length. And their belt loop are too small to fit through even for a normal sized cobra belt.

[@SubtleProvisions]

Just my opinion, techwear pants doesn't always have to be tapered though.

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Definitely not, especially in heavier-duty fits. A lot of boots don't look right with heavily tapered pants for example

[@ThisIsAntwon]

Totally agree - I actually did a follow-up to this video a few weeks ago which shows the pants much more which you might find useful
