  1. Hey. New here and just getting into ACR.

     

    I picked up a J25-WS (Large) and absolutely love it. Now I want a more substantial Acronym jacket and am looking at the J47-GT, J43-GT, J32-GT, etc (the simpler short jackets).

     

    However, the local shop has limited stock and sizes to try on, and size info online seems inconsistent and hard to compare to my current jackets. (i.e. Haven vs End vs Acronym website list different measurements for 1/2 chest).

     

    If I'm a L in the J25-WS, would it be safe to assume an L in the other jackets is likely the best bet? The measurements make it look like I could be an M or and L, but it's hard to tell.

     

    Thanks for any tips!

     

    I am NOT the resident ACR sizing expert but I have can say without a doubt that the J25 is the slimmest-fitting ACR anything I've encountered. If it fits perfect I'd say your size is definitely L

  2. is it just me or is the new P10 series slimmer than the last one? been thinking they look that way in the acrnm.com pictures, but today I definitely IDed a black pair in soho and they seem significantly tighter from calf through the ankle area

  3. HAH i knew it

     

    Yup, never timed it but after wearing it for a bit they'll work themselves out.  BTW, was at BBG US yesterday and saw a 3A-1 behind the counter--yours?

     

    @yardsale    after the boba guys in NYC opened recently, my friends who like bubble tea were all surprised because they never heard of it before. for some reason I felt I had ended up on a boba guys-related page several times. Since the acr thread is one of the only online communities I spend time in I suspected that i could only have run across you here

  4. I broke the tab at the same place, it's a weak spot on otherwise very well-made shoe. It's really easy to repair/stitch and will look good as ne.

     

    This is what I was hoping to hear, did you get it repaired professionally then?

     

     

    have it replaced with milspec webbing, will look and work better

     

    lol I wish there was an AOKU SURPLUS OUTPUT pop-up in NYC so I can find out what these would look like with the Dani treatment

  5. so I returned the SISP sneakers and I got another pair in a size that fits me but I was devastated to find that when they arrived the pull tab on one of the shoes was partially destroyed T____T

    does anyone have a recommendation for what to do about this? I can always return them and get a full refund but I'd really just prefer having these damn shoes. IDK if there is any hope for repairing them though

  6. really? i just booked 4/25 to 4/30. when is this legislation going to be enforced?

     

    think of it like this. airbnb is still illegal in NYC as well, but they allow it. like NYC, Japan values the mad tourism money airbnb is enabling but it also freaks them out that there are tons of white people coming to hang out. This new law is their way of drawing a line in the sand that allows them to tacitly be okay with airbnb while still claiming they don't like it.

     

    this legislation is in full effect now, but you'll probably be fine. like herpsky said the onus is on the hosts. if the hosts were fine with using airbnb in its quasi-legal state before, they'll likely still be fine with it now. and you booked your trip already so they aren't going to cancel it, but you might have more difficulty finding a <1 week stay in the future

  7. ^ He's right but get the black because it stacks better, unless you have the calves of Thor the CH just doesn't stack at all. also the CH are too blue except at night lol 

  8. also i cant seem to see what's new in the new j44L-GT

     

    anyone???

     

     

    Idk this one looks way blazery than the last version, and the zipper is black

     

     

    edit: ended up grabbing the J25-WS. really wish I acted on the 3A-1 still, maybe Ill get lucky and someone will return theirs to acrnm

  9. thinking the p20... kinda concerned because i'm a skinny piece of shit and can't make my p10s look good but maybe i stand the chance with a p20. 

     

    if anyone drops a 3A-1 i might grab that too

  10. also i'm getting sick and it's midnight in japan...... do i want to not be sick for 4 days? or do i want to stay up for another 2 hours and cop jawnz 

     

    decisions....

  11. for you Tokyoites who want to check out the new season in person (because buying it here would be downright masochistic), ACR should be in at Cathedral, Tomorrowland Shibuya, ELIMINATOR all by mid-next week. ELIMINATOR selection already posted, Tomorrowland will also stock S16-WS, J25-WS, LA6-DS, J1B-S, J28.
