    I got my J99 a short time ago. Yes it fits big! I normally wear an XL but because of the specs, I ordered and L. It still fits quite large and I rhink I could have ordered an M.

    If you consider buying it go down 1 size or even 2.

    It is very warm . . the warmest ACR piece I own. It is well-designed with lots of pockets and I was glad to see it has a YKK zipper which is nice and smooth.I have  similar ACR coat with the Ra******* zipper (I can never remember the full name) and it jams and sticks on a regular basis.

     

    Thank you for your feedback and thoughts but please do not size down on the j99 and more so in general, overall Acrnm clothing. 

  2. ^ i think it's a matter of you can't have the best of both worlds. small batch will inevitably lead to inflated resell prices which the MiC product group have been helping to keep at bay since its introduction. 

  3. for those who haven't been able to score a ng4-ps, i'd say be patient and wait. this isn't like a mothersite-only drop from 5 years back and since it's MiC and almost every retailer seems to have (had) it, resell prices should drop. 

  4. I must say I'm very surprised to see several items selling out so quickly. I thought the 2016~2018 hype years were long gone but I guess I was wrong. 

    Papa bear has to be feeling himself right now. No matter what, the J1A in black and P30A have become the de facto Acronym uniform and will fly off the shelves regardless of season, economy, etc. If this helps drive more R&D into new silhouette, material I'm all for it.

    Random thought: New pattern designs are made in Europe and subsequent releases are mass produced in China.

    Example 1: 1st release of P30A-DS was made in Europe. 2nd release was made in China.

    Example 2: 1st release J68-S was made in Europe. J68-PL was made in China (Can someone confirm this?).

    P30-DS, P30-CH were made in Europe, but P30A-DS has always been made in China. 

    J68-S, J68-WS were made in Europe while J68-PL was made in China. 

    I think Xu said a while back Acronym has stopped working with Chinese factories so I'm expecting a full return to Europe starting next season(??).

  6. It's amazing that what started as a minor quip on the alignment of logo tape has turned into a full blown expose on MiC quality all of a sudden.

    Keep these reports coming in guys. I remember only good reviews of the P30A when they came out last year so @zoobre's situation comes as a shock.

    I remember the J63a auxzip fiasco in 2018, but don't remember a QC issue of this scale even for MiC products.

     

  7. Don't know if it was conscious or not, but unlike the previous mothersite drop this time it was much more favorable to people in the west. Didn't expect stock to fly off the shelf so quickly.

    edit: was the J1B price same for multi and plain?

    multi 68 looks better on the sling than on body :ph34r:

    J68-PL-MULTI arrived. unsure if the novelty of the colour blocking will wear off but I can immediately see myself getting a lot of wear out of this jacket. as discussed above, the Alpha Green is much more of a grey-green than the (true?) colour of the P10s. I was kind of expecting that from the photos though.  

    @hentaiyarou69, does your collar zip on the J68 Multi appear olive as well? I'm assuming jacket shown on mothersite pics were a prototype?
