I couldn't agree more with Faust on Liquid's outift. It just looks... strange, the proportions are extremely bad.
Eye: Great fits, you really look comfortable in your clothes, everything fits you well. I wish all the spam I receive on a daily basis were that interesting
that outfit seems so busy. there's things on your legs, things hanging from your shirt, things from your neck, several layered draped tees and a layer which semi looks like a skirt wrap draping over leg. i feel this needs to be simplified. that utilitarian leg thing doesnt strike me as something that is really feasible. what do you do when you want to take it off at dinner or when sitting down with friends? do you just wear it all of the time? what else could you carry in that? my bag contains my sunglasses, wallet, cell phone, and random other things that that leg thing does not look like it's equipped to properly carry. good in theory but it's just not practical.
i highly doubt that that thing that Liquid is wearing was meant to be worn on the leg.....................it looks to me like the front cover of a ballistic plate case, or some kind of attachment like that
its generally a part of a configuration like this or some variation thereof

I like that we're talking about utilitarian practicality on this forum now.
So it's a thigh rig. Basically wearable pockets. The pockets are customizable and removable, from low profile wallet holders, to grocery bags. The whole rig is unobtrusive, it removes easily with the buckles. Right now it holds my phone, wallet, keys, earphones, small things.
I know it can't get past the fashion police, but I got it at an actual police outlet.
I think some design work can do a lot for the concept of "wearable pockets". I really think bags are too bulky, and are a design liability.
Rick has taken a similar stance, and tries to fit huge pockets into his jackets to eliminate bags. That's ok, but it's still too much of a liability. I think we can benefit a lot from externalizing storage from clothing.
Horikawa has taken some inspiration from this and you see some kind of holster things from him. But I think it can be taken to a new level. Get on it, designers.

Honestly, besides using a gun shoulder holster for your mobile phone, I have never seen anything so ridiculous.
In fact this might actually pip the shoulder holster to the post.
you can't polish a turd, but you can roll it in glitter...

* As for the "thigh rig", the only thing that'll truly carry the look are explosives. And maybe a hammer. And with or without those, it won't be the fashion police you'll need to be explaining yourself to.
