  1. just a reminder in the whole EPIC discussion:

    the code does not stand for fabric or manufacturer but a fabric technology

    Quote

    EPIC® by Nextec’s patented encapsulation technology places a silicone barrier “inside” the fabric, not just on the surface like the older conventional methods of laminating/coating. This silicone barrier drastically decreases a fabric’s absorption; while increasing its weather resistance and aerobic breathability performance.

    according to nextec website, so the EPIC technology can be applied to both cotton (E-J21) and nylon (P10A-E)

    I don't get it: it is all about USA-China game of thrones? That crazy fee for any kind of stuff from CN to private person via Post or any kind of product made in CN and selling in conus?

    It's Canada/EU thing, there is a trade agreement that goods made in those countries ship customs free. The customs limit in EU is ridiculous

    I feel the choice to go with the ivory zippers was due to the fact that the GT is actually milk-white rather than pure white. I imagine the ivory looks better with the milky shade rather than a starkly contrasting pure white. 

    Idk. just my 2 cents.

    the velcro on the cuff is that cheapo looking superwhite shade tho

     

  4. I would like to understand why the zippers on WHITE J76 are IVORY, when there is clear snow white zipper option from YKK and yet they walked the extra mile to perfectly match the ALPHAGREEN zippers on P10A cuffs. 

  5. I had professionally dyed an EPIC jacket. The dye company does only 100% cotton and all it did was unify the fading but the jacket was not 100% dark black again. They dyed my nemen -C t-shirt too and the result was incredible rich black way better then the faded original (and better then the hair bleach accident texture). 

  6. I wear P10A-CH in L / P23TS-S in S (I had P17-DS in L and M and both were like fat people pants for my midget build). The golden rule posted here was to buy the ones with built-in webbing belt pullcords buy based on your weight and by waist otherwise.

  7. just throw it in washing machine, if it does not help the nemen C stuff is really easy to dye. I had to have it dyed black after a bleach incident and it turned one of the most beautiful super rich black shirts (including the threads)

    WTS

    P13-S size L: I bought from a friendly user here who bought it from friendly user there who bought in the GITS movie auction as worn by Saito in the briefing scene. It's pants only, no belt no shirt, no boots.

    They have some significal PATINAae but it seems to me it was done by washing them, no holes/tears. Overall I would give them 7/10. Also the crew made the phone pocket useless by shortening it (I can fix if interested).

    Unfortunatelly they do not fit my thicc short legs. Looking for what I paid: 450USD (paypal gifted or add for fees) and that includes extra AOKU belt, shipping and some other extras(AASB and 0601-4 v2 sampleif you act fast! No spec sheet (obviously) / no original plastic bag (can put in a genric plastic bag will come in custom made x-pac bag) / includes production tag saying Saito #1/1

    Split personality: missing the good old talk about collection with no pics posted / not liking leaks. Sorry for not download the pictures.

  10. Back in the day I was taking advantage of poor security of subnet and watching all the stuff in advance, sooner to realize that it's not making my life and acrnm experience any better. I bet that if you think about it, few pictures (no description) of what items will be available in 9 months, won't make you decide better on what to buy. Yes there was a time when all the inventory went superfast, but if you check the site now you can still see some SS18 items sit there. As if would not be enough that erlsn posts the collection on his instagram few days before drop. 

    movie trailer vs. movie: both are sequences of moving images

    leaks vs. acrnm piece irl: one is just few images taken out of context, second is functional fabric made garment

    Surely it look elitist, but for me it was a good way how to afford the gear: there was a small discount and the payment was split in two and they were like 6 month apart, so it was a lighter impact on the wallet (even when the first one was march). So when I skipped a season and forgot about the 50% already paid it was quite ok. I ordered for friends too and ended up passing my credentials for nike drops to someone who will actually use it. Does it still sound elitist to you?

    I commented on seeing the leaks because I thought many of you have too (as it was quite common for sufu people).
