Can we get an /out/ style thread? I'm looking to build a wardrobe of clothes that are both functional and attractive. I'm sick of all my stuff being either one or the other, and don't want to keep paying for anything that isn't both.
I'm going to post a few items that spring to mind. Pls post anything you think of.
(pic not necessarily related, couldn't find anything decent to start the thread off with)
Fjallraven Greenland no. 1 Jacket
>REI Outlet
Why pay retail?
mcnair mountain shirt - really want one of these but holy fuck they're expensive
>>704538
Actually I could post a shitload of Fjallraven stuff but I'll stop there or it'll look like I'm a shill.
>>704533
Youre a faggot and you dont /out/ correctly
>>704549
I can:
> insecurities
>>704540
>beer belly
>rape whistle
confused about if you're amerifat or europoor
alfie's got the whole /fa/out/ thing down pretty good <3
>>704549
Looking good to who? The bears?
>>704543
>waxed cotton
Or you could save money and buy a cheaper, lighter and better jacket that doesn't need to be buttered up twice a year.
Danner boots are imo a perfect example of something being super practical and looking great. Gore tex, vibram soles, but none of that butt ugly busy design like modern technical boots. If only they'd make one that looks as good with some synthetic material for breathability
>>704551
heh no, not really. Does wanting to look decent make a person insecure? What total bullshit - far more likely that the opposite is true
Im an outdoor instructor, mostly for kids, but with their teachers and the sites management and trustees walking around I try to maintain a semi professional look.
I tend to wear fairly well fitted cargo trousers, I have them in black, sage green and stone. I often wear a woolen turtle neck (non synthetic textles don't ignite as easily) I have a cream one and a dark brown one with suede elbow patches, and an appropriate jacket (usually a soft shell or a lined waterproof both regatta outdoors). Clean boots or wellingtons are a must, no matter on the style or colour if they're clean people understand you take your presentation seriously. I have hunter welington boots, I know they're overpriced and meme-tier but I've never worn a better fitting or nicer looking welly, with the fleece sock added you know you're gunna need them because youlll be shin deep in pussy.
It all depends tho on how you want to look, 80s gear is fucking cool, millitary surplus can look well if you don't go over the top and cheap jeans and a lumberjack shirt is in style and fairly well suited to most tasks.
>>704557
Good point, the answer is photos
>>704557
Wait, no, photos isn't the only answer, that's stupid. I'm looking to buy stuff I can wear in daily life, but is also up to the task of relatively strenuous /out/ use. Obviously not polar expeditions or serious alpine climbing. Just really fucking solid stuff that looks good.
>>704563
> opposite
Reread pist in context.
>>704586
Obviously you don't give a shit and that's fine, but why are you wasting so much time and effort? Why are you so angry? Just hide the thread and move on dude.
Except I think the reason you're so offended is that you think fashion is effeminate or gay, and that comes from your own insecurity.
I want to spend money on clothes I can wear in multiple environments and situations. Seems more efficient than anything else.
Drop the weird elitism, we're on 4chan.
>>704586
Not OP but I think this thread is relevant and useful. I'm far more comfortable in anything I've bought from REI than anywhere else and it's nice to have /out/ clothes to go /in/ with.
When I'm going more than camping I will skip the nice clothes and buy some knock off athletic wear that I can ruin and throw away. But it's also nice to have nice things. Besides, wearing my smart wool or Kuhl pants is more than just a meme fashion tend to me. It's comfortable, functional and is a way of advertising hobbies I'm very passionate about.
I do get annoyed when I see someone wearing an Arc'tryx jacket as a rain jacket to get you from your house to your car. But that's why this thread is about things that are more than just /fa/.
>>704609
>30s typing
>so much time and effort
>>704609
Its pretty simple. If your out, you dont give a shit about what your clothes look like. Its just dumb.

You know, you're right!
There's no dust on his boots! In fact, the look brand new!
Why, it's almost as if it's a staged photo shoot? Nah, who would do that?
All I own is plain T-shirts, flannel shirts, glorified cargo pants, and boots. When I pick out my best clothes, I think I look alright. I don't really care though.
>>704628
I actually agree with you in some circumstances, having thought about it.
But like I said, I want to buy stuff I don't only want to wear when I'm not going to be seen by other humans. Seems like a waste of money.
Surprised by all the vitriol in this thread. Can we just get some decent suggestions?
>>704533
/out/door clothing and /fa/shion are two separate things man. Trust me I spend a lot of time outside, you clearly do not.
>>704533
>>704538
>>704543
Notice the fashionable people in these pictures are inside? The shit they are wearing is not outdoor clothing, Its what popular culture wants you to think being outdoorsy looks like. Technical outdoor clothing is made to be durable and lightweight weight. Not to look cool.
This is the only outdoor forum I look at that has such noobish bull shit. Mods should ban this shit.
>>704613

Why do you feel the need to advertise this?
Why do you have to sell yourself?

In any way.

>>704533
You normies kill everything you touch. Just looking at "nerd culture". Stay at starbucks and eddie bauer pretending to be outdoorsy. The real wilderness has no time for you.
Jeans, flannel, wool socks, hiking boots. That's me all day erry day. Comfy, practical, not super fashionable but not mall ninja style. I pull it off with a beard and long hair, but still. Affordable, durable, practical. All ya need.

More expensive than surplus but all very practical and comfortable.

It doesn't matter if you look good outdoors but honestly if you don't take any care in your appearance you're doing it wrong.
Functionality is 1st priority, but if you can incorporate that with looking good, then why the fuck wouldn't you?

The shirt you posted is made by Swanndri, not Swazi.
Here's a beginner's guide to looking good in /out/ clothes.
>>704946
True that. You can have the coolest jacket in the world, but if you're skinny and don't fill it out you look like a hipster.
>>704777
Yeh but you don't have to worry about normies really going innawoods.
I've yet to see a hipster lumberjack chop some trees.

Fjallraven Karl Hydratic trousers
Does anyone have any experience with Fjallraven's Hydratic stuff? Would like to know how breathable it is.
>>704543
>Merino everything
The merino meme has to die. Sheep from really harsh climates have wool rough as fuck, while merino sheep come from north africa. Merino wool is less warm. far less durable and stupid expensive for the sole benefit of being soft. That's fine if you want a baselayer that doesn't scratch your tender nipples, but there's no reason whatsoever to make a shirt out of it.
>>704533
Source on that jacket GOT DAMN NIGGA!
>>704556
Yup he's pretty bangable, all the homo
>>705033
I like merino because it's comfy, feels good and doesn't stink even after a week of normal wear, or a solid few days of hard activity.
For an over layer though... yeah you're right
>>704788

If you bought durable, expensive things you would probably be happy.
>>704942
What are those vests for? What is their function?
>>704858
I just bought this.
>>704997
I have the Vidda pro G-1000 pants. Are they similar?
Why are people so booty blasted over this thread?
What's wrong with wanting to fill two purposes with one garment? If I can choose between "works well and is wearable around town" and "works slightly better and looks dumb as fuck", I'll take the former, because it's one less garment I need to buy. Which means more money for sleeping bags/tents/other critical gear and for trips away.
With that said, most of the stuff in this thread is either shit for /out/ or falls in the second of the aforementioned categories.
>>705420

>>705432

>>704533
many people on out don't care for fashion that much because it might be:
> more expensive
> worse material (hipster style shit)
> heavy, useless extras
> less durable
> less usefull - fake work / hiking boots
>since you are concern how you look you might not go all in bc it might scratch up your boots
> why play dress up if you want to be in nature
> new boots and cotton everywhere
its the difference between role playing and doing the real deal. unless you burn millions on good and pretty gear.
>>705645
Yeah. Decent, good stuff that looks nice and is made to last out of high quality materials including technology like gore tex costs a bomb. danner boots are a good example. but if something ticks all of those boxes, i'm willing to pay the money.
anything that looks good but doesn't produce is phoney tat.
>>705380
I made my own cloak, I'm a Wizard!
>>705680

If you don't dress like R Lee Ermy you are gay.
Pretty much this >>704736
I went to fashion school and I currently work in fashion. I also like going hiking, camping, gardening, and fishing. Personally speaking I've given up on trying to find sturdy, functional clothing that also looks good. I've bought a lot of Patagonia stuff in the past but I find them lacking despite all the hype (also, not really all that cute).
Nothing wrong with having two different wardrobes, imho. Two different worlds, two different functions (looking good is a function just as much as flannel is for keeping warm). It's not like you're going to be having a fashion show in the woods, after all.
>No one has mentioned snowpeak yet
Aside from their renowned cookware/stoves, Snowpeak for some reason makes Japan-core semi-out clothing. Their line used to be a lot bigger though
>>704563
Are you the /fa/g that made the exact same thread at /fa/?
>>704996
That boot will only serve you on light trails and no longer than 1 day. Anything beyond that and you are literally doomed

>>705399
To keep your core insulated while your extremities are free to move around. A good quilted or down vest will give you the warmth of a decent jacket while leaving your arms free to do chores comfortably, allowing you to essentially be warm in a t-shirt when it's chilly out. Some people also just don't like the feel of long sleeves, or 'don't feel the cold' on their arms.
>>704924

How do I avoid getting my back drenched especially when wearing a heavy backpack?
Also is there a way to protect your arms and leg from the sun and still avoid overheating?
>>704997
>hydratic trousers
I read that as hydraulic and was about to launch into an autistic rage.
>>704533
So you want to look fashionable to whom? The trees? To the other dirty, sweaty and tired people that will be with you or your dog?
>>705980
Having a backpack with a sort of mesh on the back helps for the first problem. The second is just sunscreen.
>>705980
Some backpacks allow airflow on your back. If your pack doesn't then there is not much you can do when it's hot out to prevent back sweat. If it bothers you that much, all you can do is take a break with your pack off when your backs getting uncomfortably wet.
You can wear a hat and a long sleeve shirt meant for hot weather to protect from the sun.

I'd prefer wool, just because cotton is terrible when wet, and I tend to go to rainy areas.

Fjallraven is cool but waaay overpriced considering pinewood makes the same thing maybe even better and costs half of what fjallraven charges (plus most bushcrafters i see tend to wear pinewood)
I have always liked for regular old green (solid colour, not camo) hunting clothes. Feel like you can't go wrong with that, I use it for both hunting and regular trips.
Is Prana not an acceptable clothing brand for /out/ activites, I have a bunch of their stuff I use when i go for extended climbing trips and I fuckin love all of it.

And I'm not a photography guy, but it has that graininess you would get in photos in old nat geos and such. It looks like they're trying too hard to make the photo look old timey.
Yes I have heard of DSLRs. No I haven't heard of RAW. What is RAW?
>>705973
I like this response. Gotta respect someone that knows their history.
If you could see through all these brands, trends, fashion and other consumer shit, you would be able to see the true purpose of clothes and your life would be much easier and simpler.
>>709030
Using wool as shell and cotton as lining was actually very common in the old days (pre-wwII uniforms for example). I have no idea for what reason that was, though. Interestingly, american WWII uniforms instead used a cotton shell with wool lining, which makes a lot more sense to me, but there must have been a reason for it.

Just stop.
>>709040
RAW: Uncompressed image files. It saves a lot more data without losing any when the camera applies white balance etc., so you can fuck around with it a lot more later - very useful.
You're right-ish, that photo has had a film look preset or adjustments applied, but it hasn't reduced the quality of the photo too much like instagram does.
I get what you're saying about fjallraven, but their stuff is at least good quality and made to last, and their raw length trousers are literally the only ones i've found that fit me that have any /out/ credibility whatsoever (I'm 6'8")

Kryptek just doesn't really work that well.
Also, might camo is fucking retarded (unless it's made specifically to defeat IR). You'll blend in best with the same camo you'd wear during the day. Don't try to he a shadow, be like what's in the shadow.

As long as it's not really wet conditions you're facing, there's nothing wrong with that.

I agree with you about the "LARPing" attitude, but I have a pair of wax-treated fraven pants that are easily the best /out/pants I've ever owned
I'm glad we can all agree that a hoodie / jacket and shorts combo is the best fucking look no matter what
I am inches away from pulling the trigger on this 360dollar jacket.

This is the thread that made me stop browsing /out/

Meh, Looks alright and functional enough for being /out/.
But, I can't see the justification for that price tag though.

A woolen coat with polycotton lining is fashion wear.
A polycotton jacket is LARP wear.

The fact that he talk about it being waterproof and but leaves out any mention of how well it breathes makes me weary. Pretty much any 3-layer jacket will be waterproof, the only distinguishing feature is how breathable they are.
How do I go auscore? I already have my dads old akubra. Should I invest in khakis? What's that shirt that everyone wears?
>>710251
So clean. Its almost as if you've never camped before in your life.

don't forget the RM Williams boots

I love skin tight trousers. Only good thing from this deplorable age of hipsterism faggotry
>>705980
You can bundle something (like a little towel) between pack and back it hips so that air flows between
>>706004
Looking stylish for yourself of course. It's not a vanity thing. Some people like to have functional and beautiful clothes. Some dont. Both ok.
>>711767
Is there any reason you like this hardshell over the 9001 others out there?
>>711889
Are they worth it?
>>711929
I've heard good things but I have never actually owned a pair
Here is a question for the /fa/ guys...
Are there any websites out there that let you design reversible clothing? I'm thinking of having a jacket done with a forest-based camou on one side and a snow-based camou on the other.
>>708954
What ?
French Alps. Bauge Massif.
>>711768
It's fashionable.
>>709692 I cringe when people suggest wearing jeans, like wtf. Jeans suck in the actual /out/doors. If they get wet, you're fucked, they are heavy as shit, and get hot af. Jeans are for non-/out/ folk.
>>710642
Don't get one, overpriced and easy to get off brand. Go to a thrift store and buy a fleece for $4. Way cheaper, Patagonia is more of a "look at me, I wear Patagonia" thing, it is for cucks

RMNP = rocky mountain national park
>>712038
agreed, jeans look good but not really practical except for cool days in the desert. even then the range of mobility could be better
>>712005
this is a pretty good example of an outfit i find really annoying. nothing he's wearing is really up to the environment he's in.
stupid bag with no chest strap or belt
fucking desert/chukka boots for mountain hiking?
I'll admit i like the trousers tho, but for everyday wear rather than /out/. they're almost certainly cotton, no better than jeans.

Outlier Clothing, Bluffworks, Ibex or Icebreaker for merino.

Seriously, this thread reminds me of all the undercover poorfagging on /k/ when you couldn't talk about anything other than nuggets.
>>704566
also, if i met someone wearing clean wellies, I'd be inclined to assume they were more for show then go if you get me.
This one is supposed to be sturdy, right? I just bought one and seems pretty nice, but is it going to be okay outside?
>>704917
this guy gets it
just re-did the waterproofing on my parka
>>710657
thats actually a dope jacket, sauce?
>>712040
This makes me sad. I like it because their stuff is retro and the place their clothing is inspired by is one of the most beautiful in the world. I don't want attention.
>>714242
Super sturdy, I'm not sure that bag in particular is worth the money Personally I want the Stubben or one of their big rucksacks.
Also, today 2 pairs of Fjallraven trousers came in the post. Nils and Karl Hydratic. Noice.
>>714242
FR backpacks aren't the best ergonomically.
>>714242
I've been using it for around 2months now, it works perfectly, I use it just every day, and then I went for 2 or 3 just simple hikes so I just put in food a pullover and a camera.
It's big enough, the material seems sturdy as fuck.
However, The stiches, pic related, got fucked after 2 weeks. Now it really doesn't bother me, but should I return it, could this be a warning sign for a factory fuckup and should I just exchange it for another one, or what should I do?
Thanks

Contact Fjallraven by email with a picture of the fucked up stitches attached, explaining that it only took 2 weeks. I imagine they'll want to help out in some way, they pride themselves on their stuff being tough.
>>706636
as i said earlier here. nice pair of pants, good boots, 3 layers system, nice socks, underpants
isn't that hard, and add gaiters, caps, along other things and you'll have an out clothing, as well as will be able to use it outside of outdoor activities. (obviously a 100% clothing set designated for a certain outdoor activitie might be better, but overall, i think it's this)
>>705703
How can you be into fashion and not think there's a crossover. So much of "normie fashion" is inspired by military clothing, the most out shit going.
>>716848
Oh man. The fjallraven skogso in that colourway is so sick. If I was more flush with cash I'd buy it for day hikes and city shit.
Is there anything similar to pic related but actually waterproof? Must be earth tones and not too techy looking
>>716955
Some will hate me but..
