    saw the leaked picture of it somewhere around here. it looks more or less the same as the original with some slight upgrades (a la j47-j47r)
    of course it was like one or two pictures so i could be wrong.

     

    can anyone link to said picture? have been absent and I can't seem to find it.

  2. Does anybody know about an anti-pickpocket solution I could use during my travels? Everything I've seen so far looks kind of tacky/uncomfortable. I'm looking to store my wallet/its contents and a passport.

    We really need your measurements to determine how the jackets fit with a liner or with additional layers. If you're a stick, obviously the jacket will accommodate at your correct sizing based on shell measurements. Alternatively, if you were wondering how much volume you could fit before it'd be restrictive, I'll assume you are a real woman, with real curves. I'm 5'9" with broad shoulders and I am 180lbs, I lift but I'm not on HGH and I'm a borderline in medium with a J1A-GT + J58-WS.

    I was in Whistler this past winter and I was wearing a J1A-GT + J58-WS + Arc'Teryx Veilance Graph Cardigan and it was warm without being too constricting. It was something like -10C and I was quite comfortable. Additionally, both the J56-GT and J53-GT feel better in the top block and shoulders with the J58 than the J1A, I honestly have found the J58-WS to be overkill as a layering piece in anything over 32F/0C. I'd rather layer with either a J55-MP, S6-C, or Veilance Mionn/Graph Cardigan.

    I am not a woman :P but everything you said is really really helpful; I have the build of a soccer player, but I'm not very tall. Looks like I have a bunch of free choice! The Veliance Graph looks really nice, so I think I'll be picking up the sweater soon. I have a general idea now of how warm I'll be kept so I'm super excited for winter, hopefully my kit will keep me just as comfortable as you said - I might be starving a lot though.

  4. @brainerd666 I was hoping it would have that kind of effect! seems like I'll have an easier time in Canada this winter; I've never had a proper way of dealing with the cold. J28 looks like it will accommodate for the right kind of layering.

  5. can anyone tell me about their experience wearing a gt shell with a liner in the winter? I'd like to know things like how much tighter the jacket fits and if/how much you can feel the cold.

  6. looks like I won't try to find a relatively reasonably priced (but still ridiculously expensive) j1a anymore, hopefully the wait until fall is worth it and I can grab a j28

  7. as a student with no income until recently, it was extremely saddening for me to watch the j1a-gt (and others) go from sitting on acrnm.com to virtually unattainable

  8. does anyone know what bag Ümit is wearing in V27? I'm dying to know.

    edit: I think it might be a 3A-6TS in black foil.

    Shout out to a fellow Aussie. I reckon I'd be arrested wearing chest covered MOLLE, already got stopped once by the Police with a MOLLE covered bag. 

    do you mind me asking what they said to you after stopping you? it seems unusual as they didn't really have much else to act upon.
