    The ACRONYM Community Sales Thread

    in supertechwear

    Posted

    Just because things are listed for these "high" prices doesn't mean that's the price that any of them are being actually sold at... grailed sucks to sell at and the high prices bring interested parties into a conversation, it's not an auction. There are many desirable pieces that people have listed for 3x and they simply have not moved because the sellers don't understand that's how this community frequently operates. Many things are sold or traded and are never posted anywhere ;)

    To answer that... Yes? There are frequently mistakes made but they are different every year, whether somebody actually leaks photos of products, a webstore does a "preview" or somebody actually starts selling the new season a day before the actual drop.

    I was at LA store and tried on everything they had, the vending machine jacket is excellent and full of ACR DNA but @ 1200 was a bit too much for me (rather save for FW ACRNM). Bought all the sweats in gray and the cargos in Red.  I concur with your lament about not all the stores having available stock, even the big store I went to didn't have the cargo vest/shirt :( 

     

    I've not been a fan of their output for the last 3 or so years, but this season is checking all the right boxes for me :)

    I feel like they kinda nailed the overall aesthetic without outright copying  Veilance/ACR.   :)  I'm all for cheaper options in the techwear segment. The more people dressed like this, the better. 

     

    Theres not much that I would buy there now that my closet is full of the top tier brands, but 18-year-old-me would have been all over this shit if it had existed way back before I had money.

    Looks like pretty much any other poncho I've ever seen except 3-layer? A few nice bonus details I suppose but nothing too revolutionary and I honestly prefer the pack ability of a regular thin poncho

    Regarding what you said: I did size up to an XL from my usual large as there is no give to the material and i wanted a baggier fit anyway. it allows excellent airflow in an already very breatheable jacket. It can be, but probably should not be treated as a shirt, it is still a jacket.

    The shoulders ARE weird, they don't necessitate the need for that much articulation. I would honestly have preferred a more tradition or raglan cut to the sleeves.

    Another criticism (tho minor): it really needs a pocket of some sort. I would have loved a holster or hem pocket just to stash keys/phone/etc. it doesn't need a pocket to roll into like the j25 as it very neatly rolls up into an army roll. :)
