Summer Techwear

Summer techwear is the warm-weather version of the techwear look, leaning lighter and more minimal while keeping the all-black core. It suits anyone who wants the dark, technical silhouette through summer without heavy outerwear. Expect cropped cargos, technical shorts, swimwear and easy tops in grey and black, finished with sandals and sharp eyewear.

The pieces that build a summer techwear look

The anchor pieces are shorts, cargo pants and tops cut for heat. Technical shorts and Korean techwear shorts run shorter and cleaner, while cargo pants with straps and ninja-style trousers carry the look in a lighter weave. Layer an Oni tee or a Japanese kimono cardigan over swimwear, then check our techwear shorts and techwear pants for the full range of cuts and lengths.

Summer techwear for men and women

Summer techwear runs across both men and women in the same dark palette. The shorts, cargo trousers, tees and swimwear sit on shared silhouettes, with women's cuts including bikinis and swimsuits and men's leaning to harem and ninja trousers. Use the on-page filters to sort by gender, garment type and colour to land the fit you want faster.

Where to wear summer techwear

Summer techwear works through the city day to night. Pair technical shorts with sandals and LED cyberpunk glasses for daytime heat, then swap to cargo trousers and a layered top as the evening cools. It moves from rooftops to streets to late bars, holding the monochrome look across the whole day.

How to start a summer techwear look

Start with one anchor: a pair of technical shorts or cropped cargos in black. Build outward with a plain tee, then add sandals, eyewear and a light layer like a kimono cardigan over the top. When the weather turns, your warm-weather pieces still slot under heavier layers from techwear jackets and techwear vests.
