I am hyped... 

I guess it should be 'techsamurai' instead of 'techninja' now. Does anyone know what 'front panel' shirt they were wearing with the P23A-DS? 

My Initial guess was DRKSHDW or something? Anyone familiar with these front panel shirts? 

Didn't see anyone post these yet? Thoughts?

Hey, I'm in the comments :3

/vent removed/

Does anyone think Nemen/Acronym will do another collaboration soon? Anyone you'd like to see a collab with in the future? 

Super happy with the zipper too, thought it was a really bright silver, but it's more or a gun-metal. I loves it

That's an interesting point. For all of the #techninja, they'll hear you coming a mile away in your gtx.

the jackets are ridiculously soft, both in and out. you'll barely feel that you're wearing anything. also, not sure if it's been mentioned already but the fabric doesn't really make any noise at all.

You know the expression 'preaching to the wrong choir'? That's how I'm beginning to feel with these HB posts. Clearly a few members of staff there really dig the aesthetic, and it's perfectly understandable they'd want to post about what they like, but you skim through the comment section and there is seldom a nice thing said. 

I've nothing against the exposure, and I follow most of these guys on Instagram myself, but I'm of the opinion that HB isn't the right vector for Acronym, or techwear generally; their audience (except from maybe a slim subset) just isn't interested. 

Does anyone else have any thoughts on that?

I know, saw this earlier on insta... Deciding if it's  to put my money where my mouth is, im worried I can't pull it off though...

I just bumped into a guy visiting my city from LA. It was the first time I saw someone else wearing acronym (we were both wearing the same prestos) so I had to have a quick chat with him and his girlfriend! Got a compliment on the jacket too, was cool finally being able to talk about the brand with someone in person, no matter how brief.

I'm interested to see if this will be adopted by the urban community, it has potential to reach far.

I think it'd be interesting as almost a base layer for the head under a hat/hood, even with a gaiter too (less intimidating when you can see the forehead instead of just the eyes as with a balaclava).  I wonder if there are any ethical implications with wearing a female muslim garb being a non-religious male, but I think you could do some interesting things with it. 

I tried the Arris in Douro today. Really like the cut and the double pockets. If I wasn't such a monochromophile I think I would have bought it! 

Didn't take a picture sadly!
