Gorpcore embraces functional, weather-resistant clothing like puffer jackets, fleece pullovers, cargo pants, and hiking boots, blending practicality with a fashionable edge.
This trend celebrates the rugged aesthetics of outdoor gear while making them suitable for city life, offering a versatile and comfortable style for modern adventurers and fashion-forward individuals alike.
