Spring is here, which means i am renewing my search for a j28-k in olive or blue size M. 

Anyone got any pictures of the olive mods on a black 3ts, by any chance?

I don't like the price hike either, but if the brand is slowly growing, so should the spending power of the people who helped make the brand what it is today? I mean, the only thing that seems to be going down in price nowadays is my investment in crypto..... 

LOL I sold a jacket and put it into bitcoin. doubly down. I figured it was the best way to keep that acr money going towards the cyberpunk dream

I took another crappy iphone photo so you can see the difference between rugged VX41 [L] and extreme VX51 [R]. On the other hand if acr says it's cordura, there is no need to question that, so the -COR are probably VX51. Sorry for another material X-PAC geekery post.

the material stuff is one of the best parts of the forum danii!

Edit: Also, you're like the only person making me feel better about that olive 3a-1 purchase

I ain’t even mad at the bags... but the “mods” ?...?....? I mean looking back at the OG 3rd Arm selection compared to the these 1 zip pouches.

 

Agree on the mods. The old ones were so fun. having a dedicated pen mod always seemed really funny to me. The little usb stick one?! I was just kind of looking in at acronym from afar at that point because I never had any money, but it seemed like you could have so much fun geeking out on your setup with all of those. 

I thought these bags would be more of a crowd pleaser. People seem to always be looking for xpac bags, and I've seen a few posts of people looking for the old ykk zips specifically. I am really into the color, personally. Picked a 3a-1 up without really thinking about it for more than a second since I expected them to sell out quickly.

WTS J46U-WS size small. Worn ~3-4x.

Full pack

PM for pics. 

Can't give enough rep to @bboysparrow for an incredibly smooth trade. Nicest and easiest guy to do business with. 

EDIT: Traded and sold

WTT 

p23-s black medium for p23-s black small. Just got home from vacation to my order from haven and I think I could do with a size down. US preferred for trades but open to EU.  

Also considering selling for 1k 

WTS

j46-ws size small worn about 4x. full pack

J62 is making me regret my J61 purchase tbh. Having the option for a hood would be really nice.

j28-k olive small or medium

3a-5ts

3a-6ts

The dumbest thought I've had in the last month may have been, "These plastic bags feel nicer than the Acronym plastic bags" when I opened a pair of Outlier shorts. I was like, damn I need to go outside and do something else with my life. 

Still on the hunt for a j28-k olive in small or medium. 

Considered putting this in the sales thread, but it seems like that's just for listings. I'm curious how trades work in practice. I've only used the forum for one purchase in the past, but it seemed straightforward since there's a record of a transaction in paypal. Are there ways to handle them to make sure you're protected if the other guy never sends the item? Do you just rely on rep to verify the other person is trustworthy?

And you can't really buy a jacket just because it has beautiful seams, can you. But definately an absolute luxury purchase.

Sure you can

I'm enjoying my j46-ws and it's pretty plain, especially since I prefer to tuck the outer pocket flaps in.

BTW, what are my fellow j46 owners using those two low zippered pockets on the sides for? 

Still looking for a j28-k olive in small or medium. Offering ~ retail.

W2C pouches on the old setup?

Just confirming bboysparrow is correct. 

I really oike the outlier pouches but didn't find a great way to attach them that didn't show a bit beyond the pouch. I'm still not sure I prefer the MZ3's to them though. Might end up letting them go. Or maybe put the outlier mods back and saving the mz3's in case I end up getting a some clothes with TS

MZ3's came today. No additional duty fee to pay. Whew. 

Old setup vs new setup.

I'd take a lot of the earlier SISP pieces over ACRNM. These days haven't been feeling it on the whole but applaud the experimental designs...just not too keen on those corrosive finishes. I'm optimistic they are going in the right direction again after a somewhat flat period imo though so watching carefully.

The early stuff with those buttoned in liners were really cool, I thought. And the shoes are usually pretty cool. I'd have preferred the SI chelsea boots over any of the acr x nike collaborations. But yeah, I haven't been into the jackets for a bit. I should probably start paying more attention though. 

If there's something you're still looking for you might have another chance 

i was actually kind of feeling the j61. I love that you can attach it to your TS. Ultimately passed though. Did grab some mods but was hoping to see that double sized one people teased about earlier.

^ they're actually p10ts-ds

Hoteveli just added a placeholder for these if anyone is interested. https://hotoveli.com/products/p10ts-ds-pant. Only one up so far. No pics yet.

Oops sorry, I was thinking more like Haven or End where they seem to have more structure to their fulfillment. 

Not sure Acronym would be willing to do this because they have so much activity at the same time with releases, but some stores also have those fields for additional instructions and you can try asking them to use the appropriate code when you check out. Might be worth a shot.
