    Herno Laminar updated its website and store. They have some very nice smart choices in Gore-Tex/Infinium and rather interesting "Tech Flannel".

    I've just ordered their 2-layer carcoat, my first Laminar piece.

    There is no copywriter, it's all Lorem Gibson.

    I agree but damn are some of the collection expensive. anyone looking to pick up an item or two?

    I would love get the quilted liner jacket but I haven't seen any fit pics yet. Not sure if isn't too wide or short, like almost anything these days...

    Speaking of Gibson... At his talk in London this week, I've noticed a few guys decked out in Acronym, rather unsurprising, I just wonder if it was someone from SuFu...

    Indeed, I use it a lot and found both Partion and Field (including LT) Jacket's hood construction works better for smaller heads. I feel like the fit of Monitor's Storm Hood is like the one from mainline Alpha, which leaves room for wearing helmet underneath. 

    I really like your explanation; I feeI the same but don't know how to express.

    It's like how they started including the naming scheme like LT, SL, AR, etc., these along with the same (or even more refined) design approaches are so deeply bound in Veilance's DNA and it's contradictory to me that the new identity is trying to burn the bridge.

    If I borrow your example, Veilance is like Zumthor and Ando in architecture. If one day I saw them start showing drawings in Hadid style – even if the building is built with the same attention to detail – I would start questioning whether they still believe in the same thing. The same feeling applies to Veilance's change (including the FW19 preview that junkie_dolphin mentioned). It is true that I wouldn't really mind as long as the branding doesn't appear on their clothes, but I do have some doubts now about their direction as a whole which used to resonate with me.

    I very much agree, funny thing is that long time ago Conroy Nachtigall in one interview mentioned Zumthor as his favourite architect and somewhat dissed Hadid... Now I realize how much I miss that time...
