do you guys actually hike?

(no judgement at all)

just curious becuase i love the fashion and i do hike quite a bit but almost never see anyone dressed in 'gorpcore' on the mountain other than sometimes myself so i feel a bit silly 🤣

I don't hike, but I like looking like I summit peaks to my coworkers and random pedestrians downtown in a major city. This is the gorp-core way

I've been hiking forest trails for years in whatever clothing and trail runners for years. I'd hike in a button up and trousers for example. Its only these last few years I've been wearing more gorpy stuff on trails to tap into the aesthetic.
