Hiking boots on a Monday morning? A raincoat under the summer sun? For several seasons now, clothing more commonly associated with hiking, skiing, or trekking has been entering our daily lives. What is gorpcore, this style that is taking over the runways?
Gucci x The North Face
Kanye West, Jul, A$AP Rocky, Frank Ocean, and followers of gorpcore show how to adapt the outdoor style to everyday life. Hoods, large pockets, waterproof trousers, neutral tones mixed with bright colours… a truly adventurous look.
Emerging on TikTok, gorpcore reflects the desire to integrate the technical outdoor wardrobe into the everyday context. A lack of adventure or a need for a practical and functional wardrobe? Fashion brands are trying to combine both: the trend has been picked up not only by activewear labels like Moncler or Canada Goose, but also by luxury houses such as Gucci, Prada, Jil Sander…
