    Received my J58-WS today. Some quick thoughts:

    As already said really warm, leightweight, nevertheless solid feel and a really deep front pocket. Front zipper is rather huge, wasn't aware of that, but not a real problem.

    Regarding fit and sizing I would say it is in fact a very profile fit, I am usually between small and medium, went with medium and it fits perfectly.

    As my hardshells aren't compatible to the neck zipper, it is nevertheless possible to use the fasthood velcro to keep the liner in place. It would be even possible to use the gravity pocket buttons to button up the liner sleeves, but I don't think this is intended use.

    For what it's worth, I heard from an outdoor retailer that the gore-tex fabric has gotten more expensive, therefore also arcteryx and others have like +10% price increase this season.

    Maybe somebody can give me a hint on this sizing question:

    I bought a J32 this season in size S and it turned out to be slightly too small in the shoulders which resulted in being to tight in the chest area. Everything else was fine ... I assume this has something to do with the reglan shoulder cut of the jacket. How does the J47 compare in this regard? Would a size s be an option as measurements tell the j47 is a bit wider in shoulder measurement? As a comparison J29-ch in S fits perfect.

    Thanks for any thoughts.

    there always seem to be a consistent amount of J32 and J27 on grailed up for grabs. why is that? Is the fit not what people expect? Are they too "plain" of pieces to have dropped ACR-tier cash money on?

    In my case (J32 fs) it is simply a sizing issue, just a tiny bit smaller than expected in the shoulder/chest area, just couldn't make it work and thought too long over it instead of returning right away. The fit in general is great.

    The J25-WS is an absolutely awesome jacket in my point of view, Most worn jacket during spring, summer ... Really an essential piece, never ever thought of letting it go. BTW really happy the J32 Has been rereleased, hope the fit is as expected, the fit pics seem a bit baggy on acrnm and there is no indication of what size the guy is wearing.

    FWIW, I am also 5'10". I am 150lbs with a 30" waist and I ordered the P15-S in size S. Perhaps it's because I'm new to the ultra-wide, drop-crotch ACR pants, but even the S was waaaaay too big in the waist and there was way too much fabric in the leg for me. Looked way baggier and excessive than your P15-S from last year. I'm returning them unfortunately.

    Besides the bagginess, what do you think about the length of the pant in size S for your height? Feedback highly appreciated. As sypron mentioned a few posts ago, sizing up leads to even more bulk and therefore I also decided to go for the size S, but ending up like the END fit pictures is no option.
