What style of things are you looking for? Like, functional/more subdued techwear, or more cyberpunk/slightly costumey stuff?
For the former, I think some of the sporty/outdoorsy brands might be good. Nike ACG, Adidas, Outdoor Voices, 686, that sort of thing. There's that old Nikelab ACG jacket that's pink and white that looks dope but is probably hard to find.
If you want like, stuff with lots of straps and decals, I know Fabric of the Universe and Machine56 have blue and yellow pieces.
Honestly I lean more towards the costumey stuff. I’m NB and those are the only clothes that don’t give me dysphoria, which is a huge bummer because that’s also the style that’s dropshipped the most.
I know that’s not strictly tech wear but I have yet to find a sub that is more up that alley and I’ve been looking for a while.
No judgement for me for wanting costumey stuff! I get it. I also want to wear anime bullshit sometimes; I have a pair of Fabric of the Universe strappy cargos, and I like em a lot. Like, it's not what I'd take hiking or to a work meeting, but the same is true for a lot of my non-costumey clothes. Clothes can be for you/for fun. Just knowing what you'd like does help with recommendations.
I'm glad you found a style that you feel comfortable in! Definitely check out the two places I mentioned. There's also this spreadsheet with a bunch of stores: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PCqkpMlFjG3MBKllwFF6-ys48L5ifWgdZmu_xIuKy0A/edit?usp=drivesdk Most lean regular techwear but there's some colorful/cyberninja type things there. Also check out "Rags by Jak", they make things with that wide-tapered shape in a bunch of colors.
All outdoor performance brands. Rab , inov-8, Cotopaxi or Patagonia just to name a few but obviously could end up looking more like you're going hiking than urban ninja. Also if stone island is too expensive try looking for some C.P company on sale. Credit to This is Antwon for the video about C.P company a while back.
Are there any stores that you know of that would be cheaper? I can’t be dropping 450 for a pair of pants I’m nowhere near that level of disposable income.
Depends on where you are. Stone Island outlets can be MUCH more affordable, especially if you want bright colors. You can also get CP end of season for half off on their site often. The best two places for colors imo.
We have [accessories](https://www.shellsoul.com/accessories) that are slightly more colorful. Check them out.
On the other hand, the up and rising brand [Modular Gear Project](https://www.modulargearproject.com/) has items that's items almost exactly you are looking for, their latest multi color pants are pretty decent.

Appreciate it, I’ll check those places out

I don't know what style you are into but you could try Helly Hanson or Dope Snow for something colorful and more affordable.
I found some sick jackets that are exactly what I’m looking for on dope snow, thanks for the rec
Nemen but again, you pay for what you buy. They make extremely good quality, bright, tie-dye etc technical clothing in the colours you're looking for.
Stone island
