If it's anything like my past mothersite orders, it's not that they need a tax ID from the shipper, but that they need a tax ID from the importer (you). You can just give UPS your SSN since it's a personal import.

I ordered an Acronym item from Ssense in the past and got it without the bag and sheet. I emailed them and they claimed they never received a bag and sheet, which seems unlikely to me. I imagine they just toss them out.

Did you buy the same size in both? Based on measurements it seemed like the J68 fits a size smaller than the J58. I have a J58 in M, and was looking at buying the J68 in L.

If you let them know it's a personal import, you just need to give them your SSN for tax purposes.

+1 on @AvantSol's post above. Before I bought a J58-WS, I would wear a Veilance Mionn IS under mine, and it worked great. For sizing reference, my J1A-GT is an M, and my Mionn IS is an L.

Wow. Great results. Any tips on what you did to have it come out so well? I had tried ironing and it didn't help much. May need to finally get a steamer.

Mine is like that but even more extreme. It has that strange wavy pattern throughout the entire jacket. Looks terrible. I haven't had a chance to try ironing it out, because otherwise it's basically unwearably ugly.

My J44-SD from last season has the same type of edge in the same spot, so +1 on it being intentional and not a defect.

Definitely contact them. This isn't a subjective good will warranty repair to a worn garment. It's a product arriving damaged beyond repair, which warrants a refund. If they won't refund you, you can definitely file a claim with PayPal.

Anyone tried washing their J44-SD yet? How did it hold up? Did it have any effect on the sort of wave pattern in the fabric that seems to increase with wear?
