Lace up boots have no origin.there have been lace up boots from the bronze age.same with belts.before pockets you attached everything to a belt,it's probably one of humanity's oldest garments for this reason.
It also could be used in different colors to signify rank or unit as well as protecting the neck from the sharp edges of the armor which could cause discomfort Or at least that’s two of theorized uses Roman Neckerchiefs had

The ancient military scarves can also be seen in Roman military. It protected the soldier's neck from chafing by the armor, so it served a practical purpose.
To me, as a camouflage lover, function, low price and style are very important aspects of why I love military surplus. But it also conjures up associations with thrill, the beauty and hostility of nature, the country and culture it comes from, the history of when and where it was used.. The fashion industry copying military camo patterns kinda makes me cringe though, comparable to cultural appropriation because I don't imagine they know and appreciate their background enough + they slap an insultingly high price on their abominable creations.
I wish i was short enough to have qualified for military service.... Can't find any clothes in my size at surplus. As for fashion..... I have a kevlar suit and i am fully aware that it's an exception. Which is why i bought it...
Fun fact about Rick Owens, he initially created the term dark shadow (as in DRKSHDW) as a way to describe the color of military surplus gear that had been dyed black and begun to fade into a unique greenish/blackish mix. While living in LA he observed punks dying army surplus black and they would use the cheapest dye available, so it would always fade.
I never really put two and two together, despite having to wear the items you've mentioned almost daily 😮😅 As always, your videos are always so thought provoking 😁 Keep up the good work!
You might want to research the British Army term of "Allyness" (Alee-ness), summarised by "look good, feel good, fight good." Military fashion and uniform, and styles of wearing them, massively impact the wearer; a smart and crisp uniform makes one ready to drill a parade square, just as weaponry and combat rig prepare one for physical challnges. A wonderful video, thanks!
This explains the subtle connection between military and fashion too well! My dad is a veteran and always rocks a M65 army jacket, and I guess he passed down those genes to me 😂
Supreme literally took cheap Swiss "alpenflage" camo (one of the most unique camo patterns out there) slapped their name on it and charged out the ass for it.

Did you know that it is thanks to this influence of military clothing that we wear pants ? Indeed, before the 1330's, both men and women (in Europe) wore long garments, kind of like dresses. Meanwhile, soldiers who needed mobility, didn't. The wealthier had armors : as you may guess, a full metal armor isn't the most confortable or safe to wear directly onto the skin. So, they had a quilted jacket underneath. But then the 1330's and 40's came, and with them, the beggening of the Hundred Years War. Therefore, the soldiers were more commonly seen in the streets, often without their armour. That started a 'trend' among young men who wanted to look braver, stronger, etc. (I mean, they just thougt : "wow, knights are so cool, i want to look like them" - people were the same as today yk). Anyways, they strated wearing it and it quinckly began to be THE essential garment to any cool young man : the gipon, than the doublet. It was worn with pants to cover the legs, and there you go ! Ofc at the beggining, the older generation criticized this new ensemble, but by the next generation, it was established for good (... and for men). Also, a fact about the cravate : between around 1660 - 1730, the cravate at the french court was worn "à la Steinkerke" (with the loose end going through a buttonhole of the justaucorps), refering to the Steinkerke battle, where the French were surprised by the attack of the English/Dutch opponents and got dressed in a rush, styling their cravate this new way. Well, that story is bs because the battle took place in 1692 and the tie way already wore that before, but I think that this story was made up in the first place this is really interesting. What we can get from it is, yes military clothing is adopted by the masses for its practicality but I also think that there is a lot of more or less subconcious admiration for the army, maybe it is a way to seek for respect, or give the appearance of someone who is brave and would die for noble causes - a quality praised in most cultures for centuries.
i consider my style guide to be "evil henchman from an 80's cop movie". a pair of combat boots or a bomber jacket paired with something frivolous like a hawaiian shirt or bellbottoms really brings the look together
Ties are awesome. They add interest and color to an outfit. Of course it can be seen as unecessary but the same can be said about pretty much all accessories.
I really would love to see you do a video on Marithe Francois Girbaud, they really brought a strong element of workwear/streetwear into high fashion and had a heavy presence in hip hop at one point. Sadly there's not alot of in depth videos on the work.
The trench coat really ist that new of an invention. It´s just a newer take on the great coat, a coat worn over your other coats to protect from dirt, rain and cold.
I know the tie once was part of military clothing and more like a sign of the regiment, but I wouldn't say it's useless. It is closing the gap of the waistcoat and jacket on the chest like a scarve. So it is making the outfit a bit warmer. Also it is giving the opportunity to dress up and down and it can change the sillouette dramaticaly and also bring some collour and details to a simple settled suit. (I am german, so please correct my mistakes in my germanic brother language!)
I love lazerpig and am apart of that silly little community so it’s weird seeing you talk about him lmao. I think you should definitely do a video over clothing during the old west era like their hats and the different meanings behind them and such!
Best example I can think of military clothing that was loved by civilians is Fallschimjaeger pants. Veterans loved them and because of that it’s rare to find originals now since they used them to farm or work after the war.
Nothing goes harder than ww1 fits. Idc about what’s stylish or imposing nothing says don’t fuck with me I’ll run your fade harder than a dude in a tan green fit with massive pockets a trench gun and gas mask clipped to the back. Literally top tier fit right there
I really like functional and modern military clothing. I like to wear outdoor clothing in grey and darkgreen monocolour patterns with a lot of pockets and stuff. I don't wear uniform pieces tho because as a civilian i would cringe if i was wearing parts of an actual military uniform. I like both the esthetics and how comfortable these types of clothing are.
Medieval gambeson was worn by all classes though it was First used for Combat, the lower classes adopted it because it kept you warm Like normal Winter clothing but it was also asociated With the upper classes that would Go to war, Knights and men at Arms so ppl naturally wanted to Look high status
In the UK there is a decent number of American Vintage clothing shops. I’ve always loved the combination of military and grunge. The dark greens/browns/oranges have always worked for me. The WW2 U.S Tanker jacket is probably the best jacket I’ve ever worn/bought.
I want a military surplus because it’s very practical to use, and at the same time I can make a statement with it without even trying lol but mostly because it’s very practical to use
War also had a impact on women fashion too! War is the reason women wear high heels 👠 and a bra 👙. Shockingly wearing high heels 👠 started out as a Man’s Thing because high heels 👠 were invented by the Persians (the present day country Iran) in the 9th century A.D. for Persians soldiers that rode horses because as you know already to property ride a horse, you need a Saddle and the part of the saddle were you put your feet 👣 is the stirrup to decrease your chances of falling off the horse & increase the rider’s ability to keep the horse study. So high heels 👠 were made to keep the soldiers feet grips better in the stirrup so their feet would not slipped out of the stirrup, thus decreasing their chances even more of not falling off their horse when riding into battle. It also allows archers to standup while riding and shoot arrows at a closer range. Over the centuries some men began to wear high heels 👠 as fashion because some of those men were short, so wearing heels make them feel tall. Examples are French King Louis XIV and English King George III. Over time more & more men began to wear them, then women began to wear them too. Then there was a time when both man & woman were wearing heels. Then high heels 👠 became yesterday fashion as both man & woman stopped wearing them because wearing heels can be a bit painful. Then in the late 18th century with the invention of camera 📸. Pictures were taken of models wearing high heels 👠 which started engraving heels as ladies fashion and then with the invention of magazines showing pages of models wearing heels; that what finally cemented high heels 👠 today as fashion for women Before bras, women wear a corset as their undergarment starting from the 1500 hundreds to 1918. The problem with the corset was it was too tight, crushing a woman chest, making it difficult for women to breathe. It would be common for women to pass out on the streets because they were barely getting any air. A solution could’ve been made if it wasn’t for men being men with their controlling behavior. It wasn’t until women passing out from wearing a tight undergarment put men at a disadvantage, then finally a solution was crafted. When America entered into World War I, corsets had metal installed in them, so the government order factories to stop making corsets so the metal could be used to make weapons and with millions of men drafted into the military, their was hardly any man to work in the factories 🏭, so women took over the factory work and having to do so much physical work while wearing a tight undergarment, you guess it, women were passing out by the number and so finally a more comfortable and flexible undergarment was made for women to wear: The Bra 👙
Martial wear has always had a huge influence on how everyone dresses, in the late middle ages the silhouette of mens civil clothing was made to resemble the shape of plate armour (rounded chest, very high and suppressed waist etc)
I think all boarders and military forces should be abloished and all giant military clothing factories just be made to make free clothes for all people as we all wear military insipired fits anyways. Thats 90% of the worlds problems solved right there.
Welt pockets, fishtail parkas forever being terrible, fiberglass liners inside Korean army parkas, tiger Camo being appropriated by GI's in Vietnam, and of course, Visvim. Very rich topic, maybe unfortunately.

1:48 THE ANSWER TO A 2 DECADE QUESTION HAS BEEN GIVEN 😭🤣
War also had a impact on women fashion too! War is the reason women wear high heels 👠 and a bra 👙. Shockingly wearing high heels 👠 started out as a Man’s Thing because high heels 👠 were invented by the Persians (the present day country Iran) in the 9th century A.D. for Persians soldiers that rode horses because as you know already to property ride a horse, you need a Saddle and the part of the saddle were you put your feet 👣 is the stirrup to decrease your chances of falling off the horse & increase the rider’s ability to keep the horse study. So high heels 👠 were made to keep the soldiers feet grips better in the stirrup so their feet would not slipped out of the stirrup, thus decreasing their chances even more of not falling off their horse when riding into battle. It also allows archers to standup while riding and shoot arrows at a closer range. Over the centuries some men began to wear high heels 👠 as fashion because some of those men were short, so wearing heels make them feel tall. Examples are French King Louis XIV and English King George III. Over time more & more men began to wear them, then women began to wear them too. Then there was a time when both man & woman were wearing heels. Then high heels 👠 became yesterday fashion as both man & woman stopped wearing them because wearing heels can be a bit painful. Then in the late 18th century with the invention of camera 📸. Pictures were taken of models wearing high heels 👠 which started engraving heels as ladies fashion and then with the invention of magazines showing pages of models wearing heels; that what finally cemented high heels 👠 today as fashion for women
Before bras, women wear a corset as their undergarment starting from the 1500 hundreds to 1918. The problem with the corset was it was too tight, crushing a woman chest, making it difficult for women to breathe. It would be common for women to pass out on the streets because they were barely getting any air. A solution could’ve been made if it wasn’t for men being men with their controlling behavior. It wasn’t until women passing out from wearing a tight undergarment put men at a disadvantage, then finally a solution was crafted. When America entered into World War I, corsets had metal installed in them, so the government order factories to stop making corsets so the metal could be used to make weapons and with millions of men drafted into the military, their was hardly any man to work in the factories 🏭, so women took over the factory work and having to do so much physical work while wearing a tight undergarment, you guess it, women were passing out by the number and so finally a more comfortable and flexible undergarment was made for women to wear: The Bra 👙
Martial wear has always had a huge influence on how everyone dresses, in the late middle ages the silhouette of mens civil clothing was made to resemble the shape of plate armour (rounded chest, very high and suppressed waist etc)
80's and 90's M81 Woodland and Chocolate Chip camo or DCU is the the best.
I personally love Vietnam tiger stripe
thanks fasionlover4
I like anything that will help me blend into the shadows
that random mention of LazerPig came so unexpected
@@Oppen1945 Check out Perun for exactly that
@@Oppen1945 Red Effect's T14 video pretty well displays what I don't like about lazerpig.
Nice one with the pickelhaube. Plural would be "Pickelhauben" though, still well pronunciation.
7:50 sod's opera is peak
ties are cool
I think all boarders and military forces should be abloished and all giant military clothing factories just be made to make free clothes for all people as we all wear military insipired fits anyways. Thats 90% of the worlds problems solved right there.
I'm wearing a BDU right now actually

Statistics prove that the more racist you are the drippier your fits be
8:48 The guy on the right looks like he’s absolutely not in the mood for the photographer’s bullshit today
Time to take ties and suits and throw them in the dustbin of history. Stupid attire has gone on way past it's shelf life
NICE COKE
Fastest 12 minutes of my life, I loved the end too 😏
Welt pockets, fishtail parkas forever being terrible, fiberglass liners inside Korean army parkas, tiger Camo being appropriated by GI's in Vietnam, and of course, Visvim. Very rich topic, maybe unfortunately.
Lmfao😂
The whermacht had martial drip and you can’t change my mind on this.
