HOW TO DO: SUMMER TECH
By Hannah Blincko, 3 July 2023
We've all heard about gorpcore here, right?! It never goes out of style and you might not believe us, but it works for summer too. Think outdoorsy deets, practical bits, techy 'fits, sporty shapes and shoes made for hiking 🥾 If it looks like you've just been up a mountain/camped/climbed/all of the above (even if all you're doing is strutting to your local farmer's market on a casj Sunday..) it's gonna work. Keep scrollin' for our techywear tips AND the pieces you need to add to your bag 🔍
THE TOP
Nike Life waffle long-sleeve T-shirt, £64.95
The great thing about outdoorsy dressing? The more mismatched your choices are, the better! A neutral top and shorts + neon accessories = summer nailed.
THE SHORTS
Dickies jackson tech cargo shorts, £60
All together now: if in doubt, cargo it out 📢 When practical pockets become a style statement, it's a win-win. Extra points for a carabiner clipped to your belt.
THE GILET
Nike Life insulated woven gilet, £84.95
Another rule of this trend: layer, layer, layer. Obvi it's summer so we've gotta go with a lightweight option, but when the temps allow – go for a techy gilet. They're perf for breezier eves and add a lil something-something to your simple tee look.
THE JACKET
Columbia Doverwood quilted liner jacket, £95
But when a gilet just won't cut it, turn to a quilted liner jacket for a cooler take on keeping warm during the summer months. Aaaand, this pastel blue one from Columbia (a gorpcore king) just so happens to be ✨exclusive✨ to ASOS...

THE KICKS
Timberland Vibram Euro Hiker WP boots, £215
If your shoes could take you up a mountain, you've nailed it. Chunky, techy and oh-so practical is the name of the game, and we're here for how comfy these stompers are 🗻
