    Damn, wish I lived in a bigger city. I'm looking for black 28 voronois, if anyone finds some and is willing to proxy let me know and I can throw some your way.

    I actually have 2 pairs of 28 black, one AR and one TerraTex. I don't wear it, just been sitting in my closet. Both washed once and worn once. I prefer align and apparat a bit more. If you are interested, you can PM me.

  2. I don't think they have solved the wavy collar issue on the SS17, I just sent mine in for warranty couple weeks ago.

    Contrary to what @branespload said about the skin oil, one of the guys from arcteryx warranty told me it is the stitching needle that punctures the elastic while sewing them together. After couple washes, the elastic gets loosen and that is why the collar deforms.

    lol when you move production of your pants to china and the factory you contracted starts cranking out their own copies pretty much right away

     

    My thought exactly. More and more fakes are coming out since the beginning of 2017.

  4. I find AV CS has been very consistent since 2009, when I warrantied my mainline jacket and allowed me to replace it with Veilance at the similar value.

    When warrantying an older model, AV CS is excellent at matching a similar current style or would let you choose anything at the similar value.

    The only concern I have going forward with the warranty is the fact that they are not producing anymore size 28, can only replace with size 29. Unless I get fatter down the road, size 29 would be a bit big and lose it appeal to me.

  5.  Has anyone noticed the price increase season after season.

    The nomin backpack is now $980CAD vs originally $550CAD. almost doubled in price. It is harder to justify paying that much for similar pieces from past seasons.

  6. Exclusive item(s) being dropped on Frenzy App soon.

    In the picture looks like the wool-faced monitor down jacket that was similarly released for the Soho pop-up store. Whoever missed out on that can have another chance of getting it.

    Know they're not build for the great outdoors per se, but has anyone here put their voronoi's through any serious trekking conditions? I'm debating packing them for a month long SE asia trip due to their weight (and to stop me buying more pants), but concerned they may just fall apart if they so much as look at a jungle. 

    I live in Hong Kong, with a humid climate and I have wore my voronoi shorts for hikes. It holds up quite well. When I travel around SE Asia, I pack my voronoi shorts and they are excellent in terms of their breath-ability and comfort. I have been wearing it since 2014 and so far the voronoi shorts are still in excellent condition.

    There's plenty of awesome stuff coming over the next two seasons (hint: your wallet may be out of a job).

    Similar to the wallets released for the NYC pop-up store?
