Does anyone know if the SP29 will be an oversized waist with a cinch down (ala p30 and p31s) or if it will be a regular size waist. Are we meant to go by our inseam length or waist? The new cinchable one sided waist-belt is throwing me off.
There is no snap / button closure, it is an integrated belt that just cinches down. Like it was said above not quite as spacious as those other pants but there is room. I’m usually a small in pants and xs fit well

I also wish it had a hood. Kinda weird considering it does still have hand gaiters for extra protection, which honestly make the sleeves look awkwardly long
Tried it on today and yea the material works great for a light packable type jacket but the sleeves are questionably long for no apparent reason. I'd like to wear it with the gaiters like I do with the j63 but will probably just end up tucking the cuffs in for appropriate length

Just when I thought the season sucks, E hits us with these.
Anyone knows what the material of that J68 is?
The elusive 2L GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER
interested to hear what people think of the new material on the 38s when they get it in hand

I find these and blazers in general run long (they do fit like normal blazers) so I take my af1 size (.5 down) if you’re worried about narrowness though tts is fine you might just have some room in the toe.

Has anyone ever heard of issues of the logo-tag falling of? Bought a P31-DS off grailed and the pants came with the logo-tag stitched on the inside. Asked the seller and he told me he did it because it would otherwise „fall off because of age“ (on a 2 year old pant lol). Also, this was not recognizable on his photos. The pants otherwise look legit and I don’t think there exist any fakes of it, i just think it’s kind of odd and it will of course be harder to sell in the future because the tag is always the first thing you look at for LCs. Or am I too picky about the whole thing and should relax?
Yup definitely happens with wear - old j4 and new j68pl

That's actually around where they sit if you hike them up, a nice sag will have your ankles feeling safe. One of the reason why I sold them tbh, I don't mind wearing them at or below the hips, and that's what I usually do, but didn't like how my ankles would show like this dude lol
I think the issue is he 6'1" and they put him in a small. Like everyone says around here with drawcord pants size for your height not the waist. I'm 5'7" and the 31s break perfectly at shoe. Shoulda put him in a L probably but they taking styling notes from END

> Made In China
Did they move production to China now? Or is it just the J68? (and possibly the P31, explaining the price)
Possible, previous p31 non a were still made in Europe and 719 euro vs 736 this drop

Does anyone know if(and which) stockists will carry the RAF J68-PL? I haven’t seen it previewed by any shops yet personally, so just curious if it’s a mothership fight. Need to sell some things, but a RAF jacket is on the bucket list for me
I believe Haven has Raf but not alpha

Anyone that owns the J76, do you use it as your main? It's more similar to my J15 that I just sold. I wonder if you can squeeze some of the thicker insulators underneath.
Yup, my main shell now lined with the 58 or 65 during colder months. I preferred the utility over the j1 both pockets and hood wise. Have the 61 for severe weather.

Wanted to share my thoughts on the 76 after about a month of use
Been looking for an everyday type shell to replace my j1a-gt that’s a bit more low-key on design but still has the utility.
Looks wise it reminds me of the 32 + elements of the 66.
The 43/47 are a little too plain for me, but this strikes a nice balance between clean silhouette / storage / features.
So lets talk zippers since that's the main selling point on this one.
No soft plastic on the tips is great and makes one handed operation easy. Haven’t got caught as much as I thought since they lay flatter and they're not double zips like normal gravity pockets which tend to catch on most things.
There is a slight snugness right at the arm joints and under the pit - no loss in mobility, just a bit of stiffness from the lamination.
The holster pockets are roomy and extend far back. This can make it a bit awkward reaching smaller items at times. They can fit 2 point n shoots and don’t get in the way of arms when walking. I like having the weight distributed up here instead of lower so it doesn't weigh the jacket down and you don't feel it sag as much. Can't really access the right one if you're wearing a bag though.
I like the vents as I usually run hot and works well lined with the short sleeve 65.
New cinch cuff design is great. I usually never have to adjust the cuffs, but the cut is wider in the openings so even when you do cinch, you can still use the gravity pocket which was an issue with previous designs. Can also use gravity pockets with a liner attached due to the wide cuff design. You don't have to fold over the cuff to tighten - it kind of auto cinches, so when you pull the tab the cuff tightens and you can do it with one hand.
Maybe not exclusive to this jacket, but the new storm hood is also great. It's deep, but conforms to the shape of your head well even when you move up and down and still gives you peripheral vision with enough overhang in front keeping the rain off your face.
Expansion zip does help with interops if that's your thing. I usually wear it lined so it's a moot point.
As someone had commented earlier, I do wish it had a secondary zip for helping you when you sit. I do miss the chest to neck zip like on the j1 since I like to wear things half open, but the 2 cf closures do a good enough job.
Things I didn't like about the j1a gt (2.0) - Short storm hood, never felt it really did a good job, mostly wore it without. Never used any of the pockets except for flak. I found them too profile so fitting hands in them was tight / mezz pocket behind the flak usually had things falling out when bending over. All other gimmicks improved upon with the 76 (interops, gravity, cuff, storage, hood...) Biggest thing was probably sizing though since it was a small. Found it too tight to layer with the 58 and 65 and didn't like how snug it started to fit overall. So went with a medium in the 76 for more room and have been much happier.

Anybody have any good glove recommendations? Looking for something low profile but still has some warmth and water resistancy - touch screen stuff is a plus.
was eyeing the infinium stuff north face put out and might give them a trial

How does the j58ws compare to the mionn is from veilance? I want to get a insulator for my j1ts but not sure if i want to spend 1300ish for a j58 when i can get the alternative for half the price.
Gonna echo dolphin on this one as I own both as well and the 58 is a more substantial insulator in both the material and warming categories. Mionn has a cleaner more low profile look and sizing up on the 58 helped with the overall fit and using the second zip to alleviate the bunchiness works well.
Can definitely get by with the veilance if you’re looking for a cheaper insulator and can be worn stand alone. I do prefer the 58 and get plenty of usage out of it both under a shell and by itself.

Been enjoying the p39m for everyday wear, m fabric translates well to these pieces, shorts feel lighter than they appear, I like the cut and colour of the 97 but could have used 2” off the arm length. M top xs bottom I’m 5’7”
