I Bought AliExpress Clothing So You Don't Have to ｜ Techwear Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2022
- Many 'techwear retailers' are drop-shippers who don't stock their own inventory, instead reselling clothing available from TaoBao and AliExpress at significantly higher prices. This week we're going to the source to see if we can locate some better cheap techwear clothing than stores we've investigated previously, and at lower prices.
-In this video-
Single Road pants: bit.ly/3HvZdjL
The Croxx t-shirt: bit.ly/34FjIw8
Silentstorm jacket: bit.ly/3Gzy3Y2
Whyworks belt: bit.ly/3oPiEgv
1516 sacoche bag: bit.ly/3GpjBC0
Silentstorm pouch: bit.ly/3B5qeIv

PSA: wash these clothes first, you do not want to be in direct contact with any chemical residue found on these clothes! same goes for stuff from taobao too
I never wear new clothes before washing
@monsterm7578 are u stupid? its well known you should wash new cloths before wearing them, especially when theyre cheaply mass produced
@MuoMuo why make everything political
Industrial manufacturer tends to use harsher and more efficient chemicals that are inherently "safe" in the production process, but may cause irritation or have an allergic reaction for some. Hence, washing is good practice to ensure that they are more comfortable to wear with fewer risks of irritation.
Also, washing clothes before wear has a comforting effect because it smells and "feels" yours beforehand.
@monsterm7578Everything isn't automatically a conspiracy just bc you are ignorant of it.
Cargo pants with tons of pocket exists only to carry snacks in a movie theater
Can't get more functional than that
I could watch a video of these label typos for hours and hours. They remind me of the unintentionally hilarious book “English As She Is Spoke” (which can be found as PDF online)
The dichotomy between every process that goes into producing something on a large scale and then this one dude high on factory fumes that was in charge of the labels is kind of amazing. Actually, I like the idea of a boardroom carefully coming up with this even more.
This craft is not shit!
"To crunch a marmoset"
Sometimes I hate autocorrect. That should be "craunch" (at least according to the Book of Heroic Failures...)
I would pay for some irony typos printed on a T-shirt, like that "ATTENTION" tag, the "This craft is not a shit" killed me xDDD
That’s brilliant! It’s like that game where you translate back and forth in Google Translate and see how bad the final result is - except using 19th century English 😂
I 😂 so hard every time “the slap” appears 🤣
Can you make another DIY video maybe customising something different then sneakers? I really liked it
Would love to see diy pant or jackets
Me too
Thanks! Yes, would love to do more DIY stuff. I have some ideas in mind but they take a bit more planning than other stuff so we'll see what happens!
@@ThisIsAntwon please add an interops zip to a tshirt for the Lols
One thing I started to do once I stopped buying from these “knock-off” stores, was going to some of the stores I regularly buy from (Zara for example) and grab up pieces that I believe fit into that “techwear” aesthetic, and so far, I’ve been rather successful…and recently I’ve started getting more involved in Nike’s ACG lineup, and I’ve been picking out stuff there as well…saves me the headache sometimes…
Good advice!
These are my favorite videos from you!
Thanks! Guess that means I've gotta order more stuff in future 😭
love u man, great vids. The background music has become iconic btw, love it haha
Thanks! It's a banger, can't bring myself to change it
This video illustrates the power of clothing, Antwon went from suburban dad to enigmatic fuck boi real fast
The faint slapping in the background was the best part of the vid lol, great job Amphitheater. Also what are your thoughts on the new Acronym x Nike collab?
I'm not really into techwear, but i absolutely love to watch it on your channel :)
Solely watching this channel to find gift ideas for my bf so I can steal his hoodies. Gf perks as I call them. Also, love watching Anton suffer on behalf of mankind. But daaaaaaammmmmnnn that cursed clip makes me want to bleach my eyes 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣
i bought the belt back at 2020, im glad you have find it aswell
Reminds me of when AVGN reads fan mail and gets strange emails like the labels
"Live like a windrammer as you fuck" 😭😭😭😭😭
08:21 couldn't make it up haha
Antwon, your videos are so helpful, thanks for all the info! Do you have any advice on how to find high-performance breathable clothes LIKE techwear? You said most stores don't use that term, so is there a term they *_would_* use?
getting recommended some more interesting fashion videos and it is great. plus this is entertaining lol
That shirt tag DID ME IN
I honestly don’t care if techwear is an unknown brand or seller or a counterfeit of a well known one such as holy grail. I just care about the look, and the feel.
But then that's not actually techwear, tough, that's just cosplaying as techwear. The idea of high performance materials, construction and the look is all part of what "techwear" is. Get rid of one of them, and it's no longer techwear.
Hi Antwon I really like these kind of videos! After seeing your last video dying the Asics, how are the holding up? And any plans to try another type of shoe?
Great, this is the kind of videos I wanted because you can't really find a lot of "reviews" on those brands. The lower tier techwear like nosucism, silenstorm, reindee lusion, riot division, etc.
Glad you found it useful!
Thank you for making this video!!! I’ve been hoping you would make something of this sort ever since I discovered your channel!!!
I'd be more interested in techwear if they had natural fibres techwear; I suffer from rashes if I wear some kinds of Nylon.
Nice video. I like Persona BGM that you used in this video.
I would really like a “post lunar core” inspo board or capsule collection. That sounds like my style….
Fidlock buckles are fantastic, thanks to your previous videos I've now made 3 of my own Fidlock Belts. So you have my thanks Anton.
It's funny you said something was "less cringe" in this video, as I can't stop thinking this entire techwear genre of fashion looks very cringe. Where do people actually wear this stuff?
Outside schools... 😧
Reading that tag out made me spit my toothpaste out out 😂
Mans got a moist lisp, i love it lol !
at 8.20 "To avoid danger of suffocation. Keep this crafts away from beggars and maniac" 😂
NGL this jacket looks sick imo :D
The t-shirt card😂Brilliant
It really was quite something
those brand tag dialogue descriptions are hilarious
Do you think you could make a review video on the Quikflip reversible backpack jacket? It’s one of the more lower end technical garments I’ve seen. (it first appeared on shark tank) I’m thinking of buying one soon.
Can you do a video covering some fabric of the universe pieces, specifically some of their cargos. I own one of their hoodies which have pretty decent quality, but I've always wondered what the quality of their cargos are like.
I was taking a shit and laughing my ass off while you tried to read that horrendous "Engrish" tag with the German V ish einen sounds to it omg
I really need that Attention tag printed on a T-shirt xDDDD
That ass clap made me clap in laughter. Sometimes, editing is in the little things
What jacket are you wearing? I love the cut of it and was wondering if I could get a link
Off topic but I love the background music
What are the shoes called u are wearing? I own the basic huaraches and yours look pretty cool.
What is this keycaps set at 06:47 ? I love it lol
Never heard of techwear but it is a cool look.
Great video!
What's the maroonish jacket you're wearing throughout the video?
Thanks! It's an Acronym J90-SS
Lmao the ass slap came out of nowhere.
ANTWON DROPPING FIRE 🔥🔥🔥
I love the colors you are wearing todaya
I'm having a very difficult time sitting accordingly. I wear. Mens US Medium jacket size & can't understand if I should go for Aliexpress Mens XL or XXL.
May I ask which brand is your brown bomber in this video?
What do you think of fabric of the universe, I think it's more streetwear though, also blacktailor is a drop shipper right?
I know I’m a bit late, and this isn’t really related to the video, but what Is the jacket your wearing? It looks really nice!
When you read the tag, i died.
16:40 I started dying 😂
"Chemicals & Smoke the new fragrance from AliExpress for men" hahaha
What are those purple trainers in the background?
came for the reviews... stayed for that SLAP
Whats the jacket you wearing in the video?
New subscriber 😁
So what’s a good website to get Techwear gear stuff and affordable?
Im still trying to understand. so confusing, the numbers are all over the place. length just right, but sleeve too short, and bust too wide. all at the same time. its like trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle. I've been sitting on one purchase for nearly 3 weeks, measuring and remeasuring trying to choose whether my US Mens Medium is closest to the Asian AliExpress XL or XXL. I still have not figured it out. I remember I did go through this once but cant remember if it was XL or XXL that worked for me 4 years ago.
How many times did you have to read that label before you could do it without laughing? Took me two watches to hear it all Fully 😂
Hahaha I think 4 or 5
Of all the china brands, Nosucism I feel is much more worth it. Based on the design, build quality and material. Direct from Taobao.
What are the pants at 17:47?
Could someone recommend me a good and not very expensive Fidlock belt please?
I wonder if the "v make it..." weirdness comes from them using speech to text software? It might make sense, if you speak English but only know how to write it using your own writing system you could use that to write this stuff out for you. Would explain them not checking for typos at all and the weirdness of stuff like using V for we, which instantly seemed to me like some software struggling to understand an accent. Hell, I'm a native english speaker with a west coast American accent and software struggles to understand me sometimes
Hey Ant, are you buying those new ACRNYM runners? How do you feel about that heel?
That's the plan! Looking forward to seeing them irl. I was a fan of the Undercover Daybreak which also used a heel attachment so I'm a fan of these too. Lots of potential for creativity with them too, looking forward to seeing what people can do with them
@@ThisIsAntwon waiting for your full review ✊
Ayyyy lets go I’m pretty sure it was my idea
that p5 breakroom music just gives me PTSD
I just want to say at 0:46 (bottom middle) Nev charges 25$ less than the real designer's(Guapi) product and sometimes become more expensive when the real thing goes on sale. A rep becoming more expensive than the real thing makes me blows my mind. I even got asked if that's where I got them. The real ones have branded zipper pulls, premium fabric along with a coating of some sort and ship faster(in the states) the fact someone thought I was wearing cheap dropship while supporting the actual designer made me sick. You can get good clothes without going dropship!!! They even stole his photos for the listings. I skate in them, if I skated in the nev ones they'd probably rip in 5 minutes. I wrote this here to satisfy my inner fashion blog.
P5R BGM DOPE
Is that Persona 5 music on the background? 🤔
FUNCTIONALITY and WEARABILITY are crucial, rather than price point for techwear pieces
Fabric of the universe review pleaseee
What jacket are you wearing in the video? I think it would be great if you could end each video with a description and name of the clothes worn!
It's an Acronym J90-SS. I've been meaning to do this - ideally will have a little label at the start for anyone that's interested
You didn't pick the one with high number of reviews and ratings?
Even though there are many fake ones, still good to pay attention.
The print text is inspired by C.bylordanapinnasco i believe
Lol he put the persona music in the back
The wording on that tag made my brain hurt
4:30 bro they were just ahead of the game, obviously this is an early prototype of a new, pre-tensionzip style system they were working on.
/s
XXL in size? Hm.... how tall are you? I guess it would be good to know to have a reference for myself.
This craft is not a shit, I promise. Thank you
I think being able to unzip pockets with one hand is extra brownie points
Hey, can You tell us what camera do You use? Looks like its something pretty good.
Thanks! I use an A7 III with a 16-35mm f4 for talking to camera and a 55m f1.8 for some of the B-roll. Recently I've added a 90mm macro lens for the close-ups too
@@ThisIsAntwon thanks!
Ninjawarning® would be nice to see reviews of this brand.
Tip to read chinese labels : use google translate, it can translate via camera on the fly
Bro put persona 5 OST and assumed we wouldn't notice
hey bro im still kind of new to this what shoes are you wearing
Nike ACG Mowabb! There's a review on them a month or two back, but I really like them overall
I'm heavily considering getting a shitty $50 pair of Aelfric Eden cargo pants, the sole reason being that I am 5'2" with a ~27" waist and these are literally the only things that have even the remotest chance of fitting me.
Keep away from beggars and maniac (I guess one specific maniac) to avoid the danger of suffocation is actually great advice, if anyone were to suffocate you it would be that maniac they are talking about.
haha the text on the first pants is from true religion
What are those purple sneakers in the back????
Check last week's video 😁
Do you have any recommendations for some belts?
Some of my favourites are from Alpha Motif, Goopimade and _coded but there are loads of brands out there including DSPTCH and Bagjack who specifically make accessories, and lots of outdoor/performance brands will also do belts. It's also quite easy to make your own after buying the buckles and webbing - might do a tutorial in future
@@ThisIsAntwon please do because I can't stop starring at that one from Alpha...
1:34 ayo 😩😤
Antwon te quiero compadre
Thanks for the info bro🖐️😇 the jacket is hella cool to me and not that expensive 😇🤘
I actually love the terrible typo texts lll
starmix boys
Hi ASAP Rocky
How to take care of your clothing.
Yeah nah I still prefer 5.11 tactical gear for a bit more on price. And don't have to wait 4 to 12 weeks in shipping.
I always looked at this stuff as costume wear. It seems like you could make a cool costume out of this stuff since its not really good quality.
