I think the shell is just too big from the back to be worn without it (or maybe even with it)
Looking at the nike webstore the upper back looks as if there is expansion pleats (like on the original m65) but there isn't. Oh well, it still works the same. shiturbantechwearerssay

Found the company that has done from (atleast) AW09 to SS14 of shadow project's advertising campaigns. Saves you having to look it up on hypebeast and highsnobiety respectively:
All of them can be found here, a couple shots are different for some seasons:

The best thing about the stone island X nike colab is the hood on the jacket. It combines features from both companies well. The branding and the price ruin it, ACG is better for cheaper.

Bought 2 of these:
http://sagear.eu/en_US/p/Smartphone-Pouch/148
And one of their larger ones (when I bought mine they only came in normal and large now they are now making them in small to XL). I think the large one just doesn't look as good but it would fit the new iphone whatever.
They come in a lot of colours, including white which is rare.
They have a cool little gimmick where you pull the flap open then lift the tab for the contents to be pulled upwards.

This is it pulled all the way out. You can launch it out of the pouch and onto the floor if you lift it too hard. Also the shape between the black and white normal sized one is a little inconsistent.
Overall, not bad for about £10.

Thinking about getting the white cuben fiber one and putting a dry bag in it for the waterproofness +colour. Or should I get one of the heavier ones for the durability?

Enjoy yourself and let us know - say hi from me !!
That's a shame. Errolson only put it on his twitter a day before the event.
My thought's on the talk:
Errolson was joined by someone from Nike whose name I can't remember (Nicky?) and they both answered the hosts questions.
Going to these events you half expect the speakers to squirm because they're not used to public speaking but in this case they were all well rehearsed and clear. Some of the answers to the questions were similar to ones in a previous interview about the shoes.
Here are some interesting points they made (some paraphrasing):
-Composing the zip on the shoe they wanted to give it a "forward momentum" whilst still making it instantly recognizable. I think they said they put the vac tech unit on the heel to balance it out.
-Unlike Nike, Acronym doesn't use mood boards. Their take on fashion is based on motion and function.
-"Can't test things with drawing". I guess part of approaching the shoes like they do apparel is using what Errolson called "rapid prototyping" where they build-test-move on.
-Nikes setup is different; they have a creative director that dictates the direction and its up to the designers sense of individuality to produce a unique output. +They use mood boards.
-During development the shoe's zip was changed from plastic to metal because it couldn't withstand the pressure.
-They sent a prototype to the factory wanting a light grey suede upper but it came back white. They ended up using white leather because I think he said they thought it was better because it would counter balance the black suede ones. White leather AF1s are kind of the classics.
-With the white ones the colour of the vac tech unit was originally based off of a section of RAL's colour standard used as the german governments colour system. They originally used RAL's 'luminous red' and sent it off to nike and they came back with their 'crimson red'. Googling the two, they look very different. (The word DIL was used in regards to this but I can't remember/find out what for).
-They spent two weeks composing the colours of the black and grey ones.
-They both learnt things from each other during the colab. Things Errolson said he learned from them are quite interesting; they do crazy background checks on vendors, they consider the environmental impact when choosing materials and that they have a very direct process from idea to inception they push it through.
This suggested to me that he thought the outcome was rushed.
I really wish they did a colourway similar to these, the AF1 'marok' :

For the folks in London:

Well, they fucking did it. They beat the J36's (my most recent favourite) functionality with the J47.
I wish I had the moneyz.

Pre-orders only.

the SISP footwear is uglier imo
No way. Y u reaching?
I don't get what people think is that wrong with the acronym website, having all the items there initially is a solution to a problem.
The images are too big, i'd not like to scroll out to 25% zoom to fit the whole thing on the screen.
If there is a problem on apple devices why hasn't anyone posted a screenshot of what it looks like?

Carryology has some good content.
This backpack has hidden molle bits on it and you can buy a separate back suspension panel for more ventilation:

Funny how Quecha's logo (who are known for making pop up tents) is similar to Gregory's.
Or maybe a squiggle is just a squiggle.

Triple 5 Soul hip pack convertible backpack
"It was in the mid 90’s. I had moved to NYC to go to school at F.I.T. and was skateboarding all over the city. If I knew that I was going to be out all day and into the night, I’d have a backpack. If I was only going out for a few hours I had a hip pack. One day I stumbled across a bag that was both by a brand called Triple Five Soul. It was a hip pack that could transform into a backpack. My mind was blown! That was when I realized that bags could serve a specific purpose and weren’t just for holding my stuff."

The map is like a 3 on a scale of 1-10. I'd just get the sufu guide. The akiba map don't even cover some of the most renowned vintage game shops.
Like a 3/10? Definitely wasn't like a like a 3/10 trip.
A lot more stuff to do next time I suppose.
In Akiba I got a couple games from my childhood including gotcha force which is all I wanted tbf. Next time I'll go to more places that sell mechanical keyboards and more arcades.

Here's the map my brother made when we went to Tokyo a few weeks ago:
https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=zjrfprkFmFP0.kYxRCkJYxAGc
It includes:
-Clothes shops
-Toy shops
-Game shops
-Museums
-Some cheap places to eat (Guard means it's a list from the Guardian)
Can the Tokyo ppl tell me what they think?
Great holiday. We Went to nearly all the clothes shops. Missed a few big ones like DSM Ginza and shops around Shinjuku.
The two best shopping experiences were mountain research and this store south of GIP that sold old stuff from Urahara brands that we came across randomly.
The amount of museums we went to was despicable. This is because I have only been to places before for the sole purpose of visiting museums. The same can be said of the places we had dinner at, we never went anywhere real fuckin nice. But all of this leaves us with more stuff to do next time.
Some stuff that happened:
-Was in a vintage toy shop in Aaoyama (Billiken gallery) heard first then saw one of those nationalist convoys.
-Literally the first thing we did was get onto the metro at the airport. It wasn't crowded but when my brother sat down the two women opposite him moved to the other end of the carriage. I was disheartened at the time lol but later realized it was probably because of the two old geezers on the same set of seats as my brother.
This map is also useful (not ours). It has Shibuya/Harajuku denim shops in it.

For the past few seasons I think when the subnet opens there's a big fuck off image which I use as a desktop background. Any sign of it?
