Top Cyberpunk Clothing: What It Is & Where To Shop In 2021!

Finding genuine cyberpunk clothing shouldn’t be this hard!

After searching through hundreds of cyberpunk fashion posts that have nothing to do with cyberpunk futuristic clothing, I’ve decided to write my own article.

It all started with my desire to refresh some of the futuristic clothing brands I have in my wardrobe.

But, to my surprise, most online cyberpunk clothing stores stock goth, steampunk, rave, and industrial styles.

To me, these alternative styles have little or no connection to the cyberpunk attitude and cyberpunk clothing look.

Without further ado, get ready to discover the best cyberpunk clothing styles and brands for females, males, and even kids.

A Short History of Cyberpunk Fashion

The origin of the cyberpunk movement is rooted in the science (and fiction) innovations and developments of the 60s and 70s.

Born at the dawn of a new digital world, the cyberpunk movement is set in urban landscapes and big city lights.

The internet introduced a dystopian vibe to the overall cyberpunk culture, which translated into fashion as well.

For example, the early days of the internet placed the cyberpunks into a cyber-goth kind of scene.

Wearing minimalist fashion (monochrome clothing), boots and nails painted black, most of them were earning money from hacking.

The Matrix and Total Recall movies did a great job at introducing the cyber-goth culture to the masses.

Yet, it failed to unveil the actual cyberpunk fashion trends of those times.

As such, the idea of what cyberpunk fashion is remains distorted by a failure to understand the cyberpunk ethos or where it comes from.

What Is Cyberpunk Fashion?

Above culture, clothing, and genre, cyberpunk is a lifestyle that blends a combination of ‘low-key-living’ with a deep understanding of social fabric backdoors and full access to high-tech gadgets.
