I think you're probably right about the work wear thing. And we can all agree that nothing comes from nowhere. I apologize if my tone hurt anyone. Admittedly, I'm a huge cyberpunk guy, so I focused on that

I agree. I find it really interesting to compare that media driven creation of fashion culture to things like workwear, which came from the direct material needs of industrial laborers and stuff. The cyberpunk stuff comes from the cultural zeitgeist and it makes you wonder why techwear never went down the roads of other sci-fi fashions like retro futurism

And I've made it clear now that I believe techwear also has roots in outdoor-wear, athletic-wear, and military wear. I just find the cyberpunk ones interesting to examine

I'm clearly referring to the "roots that are a reflection of a literary movement (cyberpunk)"

Dude it's clear that you don't want to understand my pov. You don't have to give a shit about what I say. I'm just posting about the broader history of fashion and trying to explain why I think that makes the cyberpunk aspects of techwear weird and interesting

Uhh both. Those aren't mutually exclusive. I've learned about the techwear's ties to outdoor-wear and military wear today

I just honestly think fashion based on a fake future is a cool and interesting idea. It's very simulation and simulacra. IDK why everyone jumped on me for pointing out. I'm just trying to explain why there's a difference

Where did I say it's not fashion? Cause I used the term "anti-fashion"? This may seem paradoxical, but anti-fashion is still fashion
