Remember when quiet luxury took over the fashion world for a hot minute? Yeah, well, it looks like "quiet outdoors" is about to be the next big thing. This new trend combines elements from the "gorpcore" and "quiet luxury" aesthetics, making way for a brand new look that may be more up your alley.
What is Gorpcore?
Named after Good Old Raisins 'N' Peanuts, a beloved trail snack among hikers and campers, G.O.R.P focuses on highly functional outdoor gear. For better understanding, picture it as a more rugged version of athleisure, where soft yoga pants are swapped for waterproof jackets, hiking boots and cargo pants.
Gorpcore, in itself, was a whole big deal last season, but now, a quieter version seems to have tickled everyone's fancy. Fashion influencers and celebrities have started wearing these items in urban settings, giving them a cool and suave new spin.
Nailing the quiet Gorpcore aesthetic
Quiet Gorpcore or the Quiet Outdoors trend offers a more refined and fashion-conscious approach. It combines the understated elegance of quiet luxury by favouring minimalist designs, neutral shades, and high-end materials.
The same can be seen with collaboration such as Asics with Cecilie Bahnsen and On with Loewe. These partnerships blend the practical aspects of sportswear with the sophisticated aesthetics of luxury fashion, creating a new niche in the gorpcore trend.
