He wears North Face because it get lonely and cold being at the top
My ex abandoned me halfway up mt. everest, figuratively.
It's lonely at the bottom too
@BackcountryWhirlwind very very bad advice. his wife wasn't long term material in the first place, so why THE FUK would he want to "win" her back?
@Eduard Kort I think he was being sarcastic
Great point! Being rich can also mean he has less friends; more cautious.
did i actually just listen to a guy talk about why he wears tech clothes for 10 minutes straight?
and he hearted the comment lmao
@@carlabridgesmason3529 why does my friends stomach hurt so much doctors can’t find out what’s going on to him
@@QuickGiggles1 Is this fr?
@@QuickGiggles1 tell him to ask a doctor to check for a tape worm
@@carlabridgesmason3529 are there a lot of guys in your line of profession, focker?
this video was pretty good (as a broke person)
Hello fellow brokenair
haha
Almost as good as Tren Black exposing Techlead for being a garbage being.
😂😂
Im not broke but im not rich and i spent 96 on some trackpants ...man are they comfortable and refreshing asf but damn the price was crazy ... vuori is the brand check em out if u want some pants that keep u refreshing this summer 🔥🔥🔥
"as an influencer myself , anything I wear is by default going to look good" , i need a t shirt with that
that statement isn’t neccesarily true. it depends what you are known for. i found this guys channel looking for some financial insight. if his style was nice too, i may look up to him from a fashion perspective, but his style is wack l, so i wouldn’t copy what he’s wearing. i did see some of his designer looks and the outfit was horrible 😂
@@learenng1267 what are you on about his style is good
@@learenng1267He defines the next wave of what's going to look good
What exactly do you influence?
kiton, loro piano, brioni , brunello cucinelli,no flashy logos but pure handmade quality, take you’re pick they will all make you look instantly smart cool and casual almost aloof but not
Drawback they are very expensive
Respect. The man trolls himself. Not full of shit. Honesty at its best
I like his humor too
is he a real millionaire?
@@AnindyaMahajan interesting....
@@joys8634 Yes
Fish Are Friends He’s very ironic which is fascinating.
The expensive clothes somehow made you look homeless.
Haha yes. Fashion can do that to you.
Exactly!
Exactly, he wore all of those expensive clothes to look homeless, that is without a doubt a huge waste of money 🤦🏽♂️
@@shawnsteed4140 Most of the time it's not the look it's what you like
@@TR1M. Agree💯
As a middle-class-ionaire , I prefer Columbia
North face more stylish
@The Night Man Wheres berghaus sit ?
Both are good you can't get a Columbia and northface puffer jacket
@@DUNGSTA Patagonia blows both out of the water
@@doctorbighead3882 how?
I went through a similar transition, but the reason I started buying all of the technical clothing in the first place was because I got really into hiking. Once I got a few pieces, I quickly realized that it's just far superior to all of the junk I had been wearing, for most of the reasons you describe. That revelation was totally unexpected.
I look for items that perform well. It's more about value for me. A Columbia coat costs a little more than people usually want to spend,but it lasts for years and will get them through all weather conditions. I like being able to unzip the fleece and wear the outer as a light rain jacket. North face is good,but I think that their prices are a little bit higher than people are willing to spend.
@@chriswheeler6092100% mate! Columbia is just a very good value brand and quality is much better than regular fast fashion brands and only a bit more expensive. Patagonia, TNF tend to be super overpriced
"why i only wear northface" video when wearing patagonia jacket
They're going to need to earn that sponsorship if they want it.
Epic.
"Why I only wear North Face" while wearing a Patagonia vest. Very subtle level of troll. =) =) =)
Innit
the amount of sarcasm mixed with actual useful infos in your videos is really on another level :D
his armani outfit looks identical to a homeless mans
lol
God your trolling and your dry sarcastic humor is so entertaining to me
When he had a wife and a job, but now it's sad...
people disliking this video has no idea lol
@@superitgel1 *chad
It's an absolutely chad of a video
Thank you. It is easy to view any given video as 'pathetic'. When several of them are correlated it becomes more clear that I am watching extremely elaborate (but deliberate) comedy.
I agree, I just discovered this channel and his delivery is so refreshing!
can’t tell if this is a joke or not
I mean this in the nicest way possible, you are literally the last person I would take fashion advice from lmao
but i'm a millionaire
@@TechLead and an influencer
100% would be the first person to take fashion advice from. He had some great example of what not to wear, especially the Armani phase.
@Brandon Hoyos Saldana you're not too bright aren't you
@@TechLead lol almost everyone who owns a house in North America is a millionaire lol
Regular influencer: wear something they want you to buy
Techlead: wear an unique award from one of his successful projects no one can buy
😍🥰🤩🤩
I feel like this guy often sits down, looks around, and thinks "what could I monetize today?" "Hey look, theres my jacket!"
😅🤣
Yes! And he smashed it.
6:55 that's more the 80's or 90's.
"As influencer" troll level gold, maxed out with the joma cut.
I only wanted an opinion of "The North Face", now I end up watching a reallly philosophical about clothing and stuff. Great Video
Hey me too
When I became a backpacker many years ago, I changed all my clothings to patagonia, it was just so well made. layering is the way to go to keep yourself warm in all terrains. I no longer backpacking but still wear outdoor clothes, they are the most comfy and last like forever.
💯🎯
This guys thought process is another level

Minimalist taken to the logical extreme, in particular where all hair is shaved off!
"While wearing clothes"
An ex-Google tech employee who's also a millionaire and wears only North Face is the most San Franciscan thing I can think of, Hella SF
Exactly 10 minutes! Me? I just wear whatever my mom buys for me. 😂 🤣
Northface in Europe is 100% street and hooligan style and not nature adventurer, columbia clothes look like they are made for 50 year old parents, patagonia is not so popular.
Northface needs to give this guy a sponsorship for promoting their brand lol
I totally agree with you. People who wear hiking clothes are concerned with efficiency, durability but the clothes can be worn for a long time as it never goes out of style. It never looks snobby but it projects and image of success tempered with moderation. I would say poorer people can save money with this type of clothing because it lasts longer. It is like an all terrain vehicle. It looks right in any setting and is functional in any setting. It is also minimalistic. Even millionaires who are independent don't like to waste their money. Some of the Columbia camp shirts believe it or not look good with the right color tie and makes you look some sort trend setter. I hate trendy clothes. It is for the dumb down masses who are duped into mass consumerism. All their clothes have to be thrown and soon as the trend is over.
Little did you know hiking clothes are a trend now and TNF 100% is going balls deep in to becoming a fashion brand rather than a gear brand. If you want efficiency and durability, don't buy TNF.
I like how he's advising us to be ourselves and don't copy others while wearing an outfit that he also copied from other people
This guys humor is on a completely new level
1:13 TechLead as Gangsta 1:53 TechLead in pretend poverty 2:11 TechLead questions his sexuality 2:35 TechLead as secret agent. 5:07 TechLead trolling for men on the boardwalk. 8:56 now I just sort of wear the same clothes every day.
As a non millionaire, I get most of my clothes at second hand stores. 😄
Yeah also me
Environmentally friendly
You’ll be surprised how many millionaires buy second hand clothes.
@@sherwinm1622 where do you even get second hand clothes
😂
This is the type of content from Tech Lead I live for.
it's sad that you're living for someone else to create content for you...
@@darius8031 Its sad how literally you have taken this comment.
if this was satire, i would consider this man a true artist.
Odd thing is….he’s kind of right! The guy has morals!
“Neutered”😭
He is literally wearing Patagonia in this video.
I don't think it was, what he said is kind of true. I usually am more intimidated to talk to people who try to dress like supermodels than to people who just dress in a more simple/casual or functional way. They seem more friendly, not so full of themselves.
This is very insightful. I’ve always loved these brands and have a lot of northface, Patagonia, and marmot gear. Here in Oregon, these brands are very popular, it’s almost the main style for people who live in the Pacific Northwest. We’re all on the same page and now it makes sense
Everyone in the PNW is crunchy. That's why! Haha.
@@decadeca what?
I remember this concept from one of your older videos. Imagine meeting a person wearing the cool clothes you currently want. Is this a person you want to be like, is this the impression you want to give off. Such wisdom
He wears northface because his Ex told him to take a hike
Ouch dog! Daaaaang
Lol
“Why I only wear North Face” as he’s wearing Patagonia
When I wear my NORTH FACE I feel like a millionaire #FACT
I stopped caring about fashion long ago. I wear what I wear for a purpose. I don't buy clothes for any reason other than a personal need.
Please don't stop making content! Your videos are the perfect mix of honesty and absolute sarcasm. Truly a work of art.
@Mazinblaster Z what…
You know the most troll of this video? He's wearing a patagonia jacket lmao
What toilet paper do you use...as a millionaire?
Techlead don't use any.
2 layers, 3 it's too much
Why I don't use toilet paper (as a millionaire)
As an ex-Google he doesn't use toilet paper. He used to use the free one at Google but he can't now. Look at the videos where he is obsessed with free food at Google, although making more than 200 000$....
He’s not a millionaire lol he trolling
I'm happy watching him because I finally found someone with my sense of humor
Yeah, same 😊
A.K.A "Asian gopnik style"
japanese who knows the meaning of that russian word?! hm.. interesting ) no, i disagree, he doesn't look like a gopnik at all.
Yan Brovski if he loses these glasses, he’ll look like one
He is more “asian botan style” if you ask me )))
cheeki breeki
I don’t see any gopniks wearing authentic north face
Takeaways:
1. Once upon a time he wore designer cloths, that was with a perception that he should not wear and do anything boring. He should look exciting. And that gave others signal that he looked weird and hippie-like. So people avoided him.
2. One day he went to one of the stores to shop, and he realised that people shopping there were pretentious and arrogant, and he didn't want to associate him with that image. And he also felt it was waste of money.
3. He switched from fancy to -> GAP brand clothing. It was conservative and classy looking clothes.
4. In the video he goes about explaining the perception that cloths have on people, the utility of cloths, and the cultural aspect associated with clothing. Then he concludes that ideally the clothing should be hyper functional and timeless in a way spanning beyond cultures.
5. So brands, like North Face, had such qualities which were hyper-functional with the added benefit that it looked like outdoor person rather than sober chap or corporate slave which he didn't want to associate with anymore.
6. The outcome of this was, people approached him more often and found him compelling in various environments.
7. This brought attention to himself rather than trying to emulate someone.
You are an inspiration for aspiring NEETS all across the globe sir!
Sergey betrayed
I can promise you you have never done a single thing in your life that has warranted wearing north face.
The North Face is a fashion brand just like Carhartt.
@ yes purpose built fashion. He’s larping
Why I watch Techlead videos....(as a millionare) 😂😂
"How can you improve on my style as difficult as that may sound."
I spend hours in front of the mirror each morning trying to look unpretentious.
I see what you did there
'As a multimillionair' - sounds like you are poor as hell on a whole other plane.
You look good in V-neck shirts. You'll look better in a white v-neck shirt...there's no data backing this up, it's just purely for my own eyes.
On a serious note, there are UV protection fabrics, as well. Get a hat or shirt with these fabrics for outdoor activities. They work very well for sun protection. 😁
Next video, "Why I only wear Arc'teryx (as a billionaire)"
The Arcteryx Outlet makes it somewhat attainable.
"While wearing marmot"
hahah!
Clothing is a symbol of the belief systems of the ones observing the person wearing the clothing. The human obsession with aesthetics and the superficial only strips humanity away from their inner greatness. If everyone were to experience one hour of inner peace (referring to a state of peaceful observation of the world around them without anxiety, jealousy, prejudge-ice, or any pre-conceived/programmed notions) their lives would be changed FOREVER. But for now we need to select our clothing in a sensible manner to get along with a whole host of insecure humans.
Once you actually make it and become a Billionaire you can move up Marmot Mountain Hardware etc... Good Luck we all like rooting for the Average guy!👍
Clothes I like: comfortable, discrete, good quality
"How can i make myself even more stylish, as difficult as that may be"
Got me at “strange player vibe” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you for this informative video. It was very helpful for an amateur adventurer like myself. My favourite quote and one I strive everyday to live by “BE UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU!” 🙌🏽🌈
He said "not locked down in my house"...
My man is giving Drip advice👌
This dude is funny. I don't want to wear anything boring.
thanks TechLead, I think a new hairstyle would be a good move
I feel like my dad (tech lead) just used his show in order to influence us into thinking his bad decisions are actually cool. This is just like the divorce thing and moving back home with your parents, sorry for calling you out, dad.
love how he put “as a millionaire”😂😂
“I only wear north face!”
30 seconds in: “and here is my Patagonia jacket.”
I’ve always loved North Face as a brand mainly because I do a lot of outdoor activities, running, mountain hiking, travelling etc. What I always loved about TNF is it reminded me of things I love and obviously because it’s functional for what I use it for. I’ve noticed though that in some products their quality is less than it used to be and they’re too focused on profit. At the end of the day I buy the best quality I can afford for the price and will never be religiously loyal to any brand. It all depends on value for money. A few weeks ago I bought a Patagonia Goretex Pro jacket because it was hands down the best value for money, and nothing from TNF seemed to be Goretex pro…at least not for that price. It was on sale and in australia I paid $531 for it. I’ve never spent that much on a jacket before but as I do outdoor activities in bad weather for me it’s a good investment. Absolutely love it and the quality is first class. I’ve always worn what I wanted because it’s what I like, I don’t care if anyone else does. I bought a $100 shirt because I loved it for myself, I don’t care if anyone else does. It may be the one and only time I spend that much on a shirt so if I love it it’s worth it. Basically it doesn’t matter if you’re wearing Gucci or K Mart so long as you’re happy. It should never about impressing anyone else.
He managed to waste money on clothes that made him look homeless wtf
You should only wear Patagonia, take the north face off and turn on the heater (as a millionaire)
You are the first influencer I am taking fashion advice from
Don’t hate the player, hate the game, player
As a millionaire I personally wear BOSS. Classy german empowering brand. Not Hugo, that’s the clothing line for young yuppies.
Thanks Tech Lead, I whish you do video about how to celebrate christmas being a millionaire

he gets lots of date when he goes clubbing in northface clothes. not a loner.
maybe he doesn't celebrate christmas
„Why I only wears northface“ - wears patagonia in vid
I just can't stop watching his videos
I buy the best clothes money can buy ... in any supermarket sale.
TechLead, why do I simultaneously admire you and loathe you? Why do I simultaneously find that you are crazy and brilliant? How do you do this?
Plot twist: The price of North Face is almost the same as fashion designers clothes
Your momma so fat that when she sit down on their Iphone she invented the Ipad
@@isaidstream4547 NICE!
'How can I make myself more stylish, as difficult as that can be?' Wow, the narcissism
Tech lead always reminds me that how much fun you have in life is really dependent on psychology more then money.
Damn i just got a lesson on what i should wear
It will change your entire life, you should try it. You can thank me later, when you've become as successful as me.
The first millionaire who monetizes his videos
i just came for the title "as a millionaire"
Clothes don't matter that much bro. Overthinking this stuff big time.
Exactly. One should wear what they like without worrying what others will think. That is confidence
"How can I make myself more stylish as difficult as that may be" 😂 OMG Tech lead
Hey, I am a multi millionaire too, some would even say, almost a billionaire.
Mf u aint got no money
I bought my North Face double jacket 17 years ago. And I wear it every day since that. It's a most durable and very comfortable jacket I ever had! It has some problems with zip lock and sleeve's edges are a little bit worn out but it's still looks good and quite warm. 17 years!!! Highly recommended product!
I wear 100% cotton or 100% wool, depending upon the outside temperature. I believe in wearing all natural fibers. I try to avoid logos or any kind of visible trademarks.
If you don't think like this you have zero fashion sense don't @ me
"I don't want to look like a self centered prick" also "anything I wear by default looks good" and "I define the next wave of what's fashionable"....
🤣🤣🤣
Replaces whole wardrobe with clothes treated with antimicrobial silver - never does laundry again. (Im from the future)
sounds good to me, i'm in
Which brand have that?
When it comes to fashion, less is more. (as a multimillionaire)
Vogue is trembling.
What an honest declaration about your fashion decisions. I totally agree that we should wear something that we can be totally comfortable in and show the best of ourselves. Your fashion philosophy is spot on.
North face? But wait there's more... Pulls out Patagucci
I'm older. I have the income now to spend a little extra on clothing. I'm at the point that I prefer having one really good piece of durable clothing that is classic. This usually means I need to spend a little more. North Face and other brands are just classic and last a long time.
TechLead fashion advices 😂 Never thought we'll get there on your channel lol
Fjällraven, Jack Wolfskin, Marmot, Mountain Gear Equipment, Patagonia, Mammut, etc. You're matching a brand name to a certain lifestyle while there are many other brands associated in the same way with nature. But as you said .. you're an influencer .. nicely played this one.
8:15 killed me, period.
As a fellow creator dev advocate, I appreciate that your shows are different. Keep the comedy coming our way techlead!
