    Glad that they are doing their job to fulfill standard recall procedures.  Wouldn't have expected any less even as an "experimental" brand due to this level of oversight.  I also agree with @brainerd666 that its surprising that this issue wasn't caught anywhere in the planning, production, qa, process so im wondering WHAT ALL OUR MONEY IS GOING TOWARDS.

    When E brings up that all acrnm gear is super difficult to make and expensive, I just think about the replicas that are out there and sure, there are differences with regards to quality (fabrics, construction) but I wonder if the delta in price is actually worth the quality gap in rep vs real with regards to construction since the fabric quality difference could be easily addressed (just order the same fabric and ship it). the concern here would be construction but I've also never handled a rep so I don't know exaclty how poor of the quality is.  all this to say it would be nice for everyone that bought the j63 should get some type of comp even after sending it for repairs.

    Mistakes happen, and its frustrating. But I thought this was the fairest way to resolve the issue.

     Given how some people have complained in the past about their customer service, I felt that the replies came really fast and they offered a fair resolution for it. Can't say I'm dissatisfied with the service lol

  2. Just an update, got an email from the customer svc, and this is what they sent me,

    "...please confirm with us that you would indeed want to have the AuxZip repaired on our J63A-FO by replying to this email. We are willing to cover all return and repair costs to correctly revise this flaw by providing you with a respective UPS label. Please note that repair time will be roughly 2-3 weeks, so you would receive your corrected jacket within 1 month of return departure -- barring unforeseen circumstances (potential delays due to customs, inclement weather, etc.)"

    In another follow-up email to the one on top.

    "...All duties and fees for the second delivery of the repaired jacket to you will be covered by ACRONYM."

    Just waiting for them to send me the UPS label now I guess.

    Hope they provide a reasonable solution, might not return if I have to pay duties on them again. Just sucks to pay so much and receive a product with this kind of defect.

    Is your auxzip sewn on backwards? I've been hearing quite a few complaints thus far about J63A owners unable to use the auxzip because of that.

    In fact every single one I've asked has said that theirs was backwards. Seems to be a widespread issue.

    Just sent an email to them and they replied acknowledging the flaw. Fingers crossed they resolve this in a reasonable time frame lol.

    A friend just told me that the notre shop model also has the same flaws in the jacket he wore in their product shots. (the zip entry point is on the left side instead of the right)

    Oh fuck me, yes it is. lol, I just took out my hardshell to compare. I didn't think of it. Thanks for letting me know!

  6. Received the J63A today. Quite pleased with how it feels and looks, they do look better in person than in the product shots. Abit wary of the pockets as they really feel like the packing paper which came with the jacket and could tear open anytime.

    The jacket is extremely light but only time will tell how well they hold up. I don't have the PB version so I can't really compare. Happy to provide any details which you guys might want. Sizing wise I'm 183cm and 90kg and a large fit me perfectly.

    Uploaded a shitty pic so you guys can see how it fits.

  7. WTS :  Sz 3 Visvim Hakama Pants in Navy Blue (VNTG OX)

    Pretty much brand new, only tried on. 

    The material on them is amazing, so is the cut. Probably the best pants they've released in awhile. Letting go with a heavy heart. 

    Asking USD$500 (Retail was 66k yen) + fees + shipping (approximate US$40 to the US via FedEx)

  8. When considering pricing it's important to understand the cost to seller: retail cost, duties, shipping. If the buyer bought from an eu seller and is in the us, he likely paid duties on top of ACR retail. That's why the price swing may be a lot more. For a J1B-S, in my opinion, anywhere from $885–1000 would be reasonable—if close to new.

     

    Thank you for the reply and the advice! :)

  9. Incorrect banded is the tie at the waist. They probably are press pleated in product shot but sense pic has no pleat

    That's what I was hoping for! Thanks for the clarification!

  10. alright cool thanks for the headsup! Anyway, I saw some pics of the Hakama Pants, they look pleated in front, but on the lookbook pics they don't appear to be pleated, anyone has any idea ?
