These are quite nice! 1 PIU 1 UGUALE 3 RELAX / Unopieduno Ugarere Torre Relax

LF1 + Zip >> LF1 + Cobra? I mean i feel the same about Alyx but if they had done the Acrnm zip first, we'd all be bitching. Acrnm do it first and it's techwear uniform.

So who wants to let us know what we're dealing with, price-wise, some some of these incoming shells? Is it like this past season? Worse? Better?

Depends on the material, there's a lot of new materials coming this season. The piece that everyone will want is their most expensive GT shell ever though iirc.

Disappointing packaging for the new 6TS, no ziplock baggy. Just a normal plastic bag with the 6TS sticker. Best buy is the 3A-1 very nice black body, black zipper, black edge and black shoulder strap, so dark. Inner execution is spectacular. 

No offense, sir, but you are completely deluded. We're talking about the 3A-1 thats just a bit too small to get most laptops in or out, or scratching the laptop case on the zip if you force it. The one with no useful compartmental organisation at all, no separate laptop area, no water holder? I sold mine a long long time ago and have been infinitely happier with a blacked out TNF messenger that has everything i need. Granted, it doesn't look anywhere near as cool, but it's now 1/20th of the price and 10x more functional.

That said, i still love my 3A6-TS, for all it's failings... They're beautiful bags but imho aren't fit for purpose.

^i think the the P5TS-S never came with a drawstring hem.  I added them to my old olive and grey pair when I turned them into paratroopers 

Thanks Flip, I thought they released a 2nd gen that had them, but maybe I'm wrong and I'm thinking of the P1.

WTB: P1TS-S or P5TS-S in black large

Decent condition please. I'm after the ones with the drawstring hems, happy to consider variants of P1/3/5 as long as they still have the hems you can tighten.

Cheers!

Same as last season, a drop per month or similar, I expect 

Have you got any intel whatsoever to back up your wild guess? All the retailers ordered the collection off subnet ages ago for FW. I mean if you're going to take a guess, then you could maybe take a shot at a few Acrnm exclusive pieces in a second drop, which there is plenty of precedent for in past collections.

Personally i think the RAF holds it's colour better and eventually patinas much nicer than the black.

did anything new develop from that super low res screen shot of what looked like a j47a-gt with tecsys? 

FW...not long to go now.

Depends on your build, I'm the same, large in most jackets and tops but profile pieces like the J29 are too tight on my shoulders and arms cuz I work out a lot so I have to size up to an XL. YMMV though depending on your body type.

SS18 has been an amazing collection imo. Have you actually looked at how many pieces there were and how much variety? It was easily twice as big as last year's SS. If they had dropped it all in one go, we'd have all been completely blown away.

I don't understand why they didn't do more pieces in alloy, such a great colour.

Ahh SS14, such a great season. Wish they had made the P15s in DS though!

Edit: Has anyone EVER seen a black 36 with the green sleeve in the wild?

I also don't really see that, unless we assume errolson invented and has the sole right to releasing black tapered pants.

When the P10s came out, did you hear anyone saying, "oh they just look like these pants"? Don't get me wrong, i like what Enfin Leve do, customisable service, material choices and at a very reasonable price point too, but you have to be in some sort of weird denial if you can't see the obvious Acrnm influence in some of their designs.

The first CH wasn’t the micro twill we’re seeing today it was a schoeller 3xdry cotton (which I wouldn’t compare to DS either). Old CH was 93% cotton and 7% elastane vs new 54% mac 43% cotton and 3% el.

DS piling is for sure a thing.

Yeah the old CH was called Schoeller Shape. 

And like Casey says, DS definitely pills with continued abrasion. While the P10-DS would definitely be the most comfortable pant for cycling because of the stretch, you could certainly expect pilling on the crotch gusset. You could always get the Enfin Leve p10 ripoffs in DS for much cheaper. Just a thought.

WTB:

3A-7TS

3A-9TS XPAC

needed to be at least 9/10

https://www.grailed.com/listings/5769894-Acronym-Acronym-3A-7TS-and-3A-Modules

Yeah, the Type 2371 box release from 2002 in SnowOps white. Jimbob's got one, you can find some pics of him wearing it in the WAYWT thread. I'm not sure anyone has seen anything but an XL pop up for sale in years. Saying that, there are white GT pieces out for FW this year if that's your jam.

Would you be willing to share any details? I’m always curious to hear customer service related stories with acr, since I’ve heard wildly conflicting feedback regarding their customer service standards. 

I'd had a few amicable mail exchanges with them about my cancelled order and I thought it was done with to be honest, if they're gone they're gone and no amount of complaining or being a dick is going to change that. Then they just dropped me a line today out of the blue and apologised again for the mistake on their side in cancelling my order. told me how much they appreciated that I'd been a loyal customer for so long and made me an extremely generous offer to make up for it. I always say that it's not what you have to deal with, it's how you deal with it. In all honesty, I think this could be one of the best examples of turning around a customer disappointment that I've ever experienced. Hats off to them.

Hate to say it but WTB: P30-CH in Large (or possibly XL)... please let me know if you have any leads, Acronym cancelled my order and refunded me so I missed out. 

Would consider trading some of my grails if you're a size L too. Drop me a line if interested.

Cheers guys.

No longer required. Acrnm came through with some truly outstanding customer service and hooked me up.

Yes. I remember seeing a pic of a guy who bought it, don't ask me where though!
