The latest AXS Folk Technology lookbook for the Fall/Winter 2014 season once again features [retro outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by). Comprised of fleece sweaters, [hiking pants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hiking-essentials) and pullover anoraks, the collection is perfect for exploring the wilderness. Or, as they sometimes refer to it, "camping."

The collection, which is available at UK retailer Oi Polloi, among others, mostly sticks to an [earthy color palette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daiwa-pier39-fw25) that's ideal for camouflage. Or, you know, fall.

Just like the brand itself, the lookbook is a little off-kilter, a tad strange, but in a completely endearing way. If you're interested in recreating the 1960s with your wardrobe, specifically in the outdoorsy sense, then the AXS Folk Technology Fall/Winter 2014 collection is worth a browse -- there's nothing out there quite like it.
