    from what ive heard, just ak. you can see it above. ian is modelling it underneath the black j47ts.

    I don't recall the J72-DS having a zipper closure on the front as depicted in the -AK version. Seems like an added detail, albeit a questionable one.

    @saskey If it’s anything like the earlier generations, the buckles should are heavy duty plastic with magnetic elements. IMO, they’re quite sturdy and rugged. 

    Magnetic elements? I believe that is incorrect.

    I have questions:

    1. Does the cp comes with long cloak?

    2. The collar of j1a-gt is redesigned or what?You can do that with former j1a models?

    Cloak looks like a prop carried over from the AVM promo videoshoot, but I could be wrong. New J1A collar is definitely different from previous models and kind of disappointing IMO.

  4. Looking at the photos, White + RAF J68-S have two standard coil zipper pulls on the left-breast pocket, while the Black variant has only a single rubberized spring-lock pull. Not sure why... 

  5. I think it's a combination of all the things mentioned above: high-volume production of an ugly (but hyped) shoe that costs Nike next to nothing to manufacture.

    what's the process for returning an item to acrnm? do i just ship it back to the return address and they'll figure it out on their own?

    Any kind of shipment with that kind of value would merit some sort of prior notification to the recipient. Don’t you think?

    I don't think this guy contradicted himself enough to justify you digging up his old posts.

    unless you were trying to demonstrate something in a more broad sense

    Nothing personal to OP. It was a popular post and dozens of people on here rallied behind it. Been alive long enough to know that wouldn't be a popular sentiment for long so the post wasn't very far from reach. Calling the ears of the collective rather than OP.

    I mean in all seriousness, the pricing is a completely moot point. It's never going back down, it's only going to go up every season. Whether it's the rising cost of materials, labour costs, transportation or just a drive for higher profits, absolutely no amount of debating or discussion is going to change that. With Acronym, it really is as simple as this: you're either in or you're out. And that's not even to say purely financially, as you can easily flip your purchase and get the money you spent back, it's a mindset... i am willing to pay whatever it costs to own this piece of clothing.

    You know we've all gone mad when Grailed suddenly seems reasonable.

    All it takes is two seasons to change one's mind.

  9. It's also possible that the SS18 collection is already at their office, but they're focusing on completing AVM shipments before launching. I'd imagine it being a logistical nightmare given their operational capacity if those two were to overlap.

    just be grateful. erlsn works his ass off, jm worked his ass off to get to where he is, we work our asses off to afford these wonderful garments.. misery loves company and it seems like sometimes that's what this thread turns into. 

    it's important to get over these tiny problems with the culture surrounding super desireable and luxurious things and be grateful you even have the priviliege to be this comfy.

    just beacuse you are saving up, fantasizing, or trying to learn does not mean there is no high road. work hard stay focused, don't bring others down with you.

    this thread gets really pathetic at times, but i know most of us here are above that.

    anyways

    having trouble finding lf100 for "retail or less" .. at least in a 10.5

    Love each other... shoot for the stars... All that is fine. I'm most happy that sufu peeps are finally coming to terms that pricing is a real component of the design process and are willing to discuss the implications here. Adds another variable for critique that I think this thread has overlooked before, but finds itself having to address now.

    Somehow I just don’t see Errolson sitting in his studio, scrolling through Grailed and then basing his companies prices because of some fucboi's trying to do some arbitrage speculation.

    When you don't overthink it, it's actually that simple. 'Fair wage' is relative -- E threw everyone a bone with that response.
