Havent been able to come across any subreddits or discord servers dedicated to brands like post archive faction or jl al. Brands that are technical by design but may not fully be part of the sphere of techwear. Would appreciate it if anyone who follows such brands reaches out.

Given that the garments from these brands although possessing technical features, are also not made purely for function, would you guys consider them ‘techwear’? Both brands experiment with technical features but also adopt aesthetic features that do not directly correlate with function. Thoughts?
I’ve noticed over time that for a clothing sub-genre made for functionality and practicality, we rarely see techwear made for hot humid conditions. Most techwear brands come from temperate cold and wet countries, so naturally techwear is unbearable in the heat. This gap makes it such that during summer they cant be worn at all and those who live in the tropics can never wear them. Im doing a survey to find out what people feel about this issue, let me know what you guys think: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NBL7L9J
Where i live it’s incredibly hot and humid. Just impulse bought the J127-GT from Acronym only to realise I can’t even wear it here. Made me kinda realise there aren’t really any summer centric techwear. Anyone else thought about this?
