Rick Owens has def played lots of textures in majority of his collections. Now if only Maison Margiela can come up with a pony hair tabi boot with a clear heel like they've done on some of the MM6 heels.
I grabbed the converse run star legacy Chelsea zip- I love the oversized sole, weatherproof, and easy on off. The profile is close to the Salomon x BBJ you showed.
ACG zoom tallac flyknits have been in my closet for a few years but I've been breaking them out recently since they go well with wide, long pants and they have a great bumpy/spiky texture on the toe that works well in multi textured F/W outfits
My hot take is that the Danner Mountain lites are a funky functional but good boot. And even hotter take is the Native Fitzsimmons are a good sneaker boot (most likely based off the Danners)
Not really. I think it's cool but but if it was placed better it'd ultimately look better to people that aren't big fans of logos in general, which tend to be techwear fans who tend to like a more stealthy brand presence. Maybe a darker or even black version of the branding would be perfered by most others.
I really wish I didn't have such a weird shoe size, I'm a size 7 uk so it's a coin flip if smaller brands even stock my size or if they stop at size 8 instead. Does make getting sneakers before they sell out easier tho
Gotta take the positives with the negatives! I'm the opposite end of the spectrum at UK 11, and sometimes brands won't make them big enough or they make fewer numbers but mostly it's OK. Really sucks as soon as you get up to 12.5 and above though where you have veeeery few options at all.
If you’re looking for look + performance, u could get Merrell Moab 3, adidas terrex anylander, Nike ACG mountain fly 2 low are my recommendation ur can go to the 2nd hand market like Buyee or anywhere else. Salomon, Nike ACG, Adidas Terrex are some of the brands I’ll try to look up on.
If you want something affordable some military boots could do the job! But honestly I think most types of shoes can work along with 'techwear fits' so if you're on a budget have a look through the sale section of big sneaker retailers and filter by colour if you can - you might find something with some technical/performance elements from a brand you're not expecting. Alternatively, product lines like ACG and Terrex when on sale could fit your needs without being too expensive.
Bro idk how you can still hate on Heliot Emil, ik its abt how they jump on trends but tbh they always been early on trends before other brands do them. If you checkout their hiking boots from a few seasons ago those were a completely unique design. Its time to lay off this postmodernist very anglo american view of fashion. I like everything abt your videos mostly but as a mainland European I personally view fashion as a modernist viewing art. That makes the slightly pretentious superflous tirades trying to be socially concious and put your finger on the zeitgeist of fashion tiring. Especially when that zeitgeist is only the one of a very specific group of fashion heads in Urban coastal America. I believe there could be a more objective analysis of fashion trends that would appeal to more people while only earning more honesty and integrity. This isnt an offense to you personally there are people who do your thing that are worse on this. I just thought critique was healthy and you werent locked in on your style enough that you couldnt change. Other fashion heads completely succumb to posting postmodern yap sessions. If you find this friendly critique too vague it wasnt meant to be. Thanks if you read have a good day.
I'm sure getting fit will keep you dry in the rain or warm in the cold. Just because Rick Owens said something doesn't mean its the right answer in every situation.
@@przemysawseredyszyn1405 no but you will look more confident, i feel when he puts the clothes they don't match him, idk how to explain but having a stockier physique will help him 100%

Not in the footwear game?
I love the collar on the shirt you're wearing in the talking head portions of the video! Where can I get one?
Thanks! It's from EYN VAS - they sent it to me a few weeks back 🤩 will be wearing some of their stuff more for sure
Something I just saw, and picked up, the Hoka Elite Terrain System Clifton L Suede (defiantly not a mouthful of a name). The grey looks so good IMO
I grabbed the converse run star legacy Chelsea zip- I love the oversized sole, weatherproof, and easy on off. The profile is close to the Salomon x BBJ you showed.
A favorite pickup of mine this year was the Rier Salomon jungle boot, super comfortable and beautiful colorway
someone been watching Iron Snail...
Gonna start talking about workwear jackets next
6:33 😅
Didn't know Antwon was chill like that 2:21

Must recommend for boots the Jim green ar8. It’s my personal dream boot
Thanks for the rec! 🫡
I really love new wave of filming 👾
Thanks!

Good work on matching the environment on 6:32
Thanks a lot for all this research wow,
I sometimes wonder what techwear thinks of older outdoor gear like swedish anoraks and the swedish mesh base layers that you see
American techwear bros have yet to catch up to Swedish clothing engineering
Yoooooo! Thats a lovely video, thank you for the in-depth recap. Tell us Ant, why are you sceptical on Heliot-Emil?
No link list for the sneaker? :(
This was golden Mr.Avalanche
thanks! 🙏
🙏 For Sunday
Blessed 🙏
All these dress sneakers are going to give Die Workwear/Menswear Guy an aneurysm.
Would love to know what he thinks of stuff like the mountain derbies
I'm still set with my Solovairs and Salomon XT Rush 2
I'd also recommend the new goretex Adidas Radlander line. comfy, waterproof with a techy aesthetic
Great recommendation
@@ThisIsAntwon 🫡🫡🫡
Did you see or anyone else see the Adidas Radlander EQT Gore-Tex? looks pretty rugged to me, i think just released.
Good suggestion, those look great
What are those brown pants in the intro? Very cool looking there, Mr. Antwon
Honorable mention to the crocs echo puff boot
Yes! Also the ridiculous Hydra boots
@ThisIsAntwon they are kinda ridiculous lmao. Like something out of a work surplus store -- kind of
have you ever talked about gramicci??
Climbcore 🧗♂️
Still rocking sambas n gazelles cheap look good and keep winter wear off more expensive shoes
Both of them are basically skates in how slippery they are, especially after some wear, please consider some shoes with a serious tread for winter.
does anyone thin merrils are any good? I always find them comfy but fuck me do they fall apart like anything...
I have a couple of other pairs which have been OK so far but sorry to hear you haven't had the same experience
Wave prophecy moc was something on my list that ai couldn't get. Boots guy though.
yo antwon, i see you havent put out yhe short yet, but is that zipper pocket we see on those jeans or your jacket
It's on the jeans! Big ass pocket 😎
@ThisIsAntwon awesome
Under Armour logo is trash.

They need a better logo fr

@absencesilhouette8048 it looks like axe bodyspray or sth
Supreme is dropping gore-tex dog jacket, but with a print that suggests texture
If I had a dog I'd cop instantly for the memes
ENSHITIFICATION
With one T or 2 🤔 ?
Did I enshitify spelling enshittification?

whats the jacket in the intro?
It's a North Face Steep Tech Nuptse from last year

Can i ask someone to recommend some "techwear look" shoes with around 125$ budget?
