AuxZip. What is it?
On the J1TS product page it's mentioned under subsystems
ForceLockǽ
JacketSlingǽ
EscapeZipǽ
SpeedLockǽ
Gravity Pocketǽ
AuxZipǽ ( F )I'm assuming the F stands for some sort of female connector because under "Interface With" we have
All ACRONYM INTEROPSǽ bags
All ACRONYM 3RD ARM Modular [ M ] pockets
All ACRONYM AuxZipǽ ( M ) unitsIs this just their way of saying it has a collar zip for zipping in the insulator? Or is this something else entirely?

Amen on the shamefulness of the low modular count. 3A-MZ4 around the corner maybe?
All signs point to another drop some time soon. We can only hope.
I'm guessing P10TS in S and CH, foil bags and more and different foil modulars, maybe that leather looking jacket that E hasn't taken off since January.

For all the negative J1TS-S talk, there is no denying it was the nucleus of this drop. Additionally, the 2-Tone at that...
Agreed. I was luckily able to cop one as well as both sets of modulars. Such a shame so few modulars dropped. I can see why its a divisive jacket, but I love it. Instant classic IMO

Never had the J1A, but i just don't find S to be a good layering piece. its a great standalone piece though, but it also has the zippers for J58-WS (More J58 coming soon)
Shieeeet. J1B-S + J58-WS is an amazing layering combo in my opinion.

Is this acrn.com?
There's too many X99€ prices for it to be acrnm.com. It's definitely a retailer with price numbers like that
Look at some example prices from last year's SS16 drop:
J32-GT 941€
J44L-GT 994€
J1B-S 932€
P20-S 607€
S14-BR 320€
That's what Acrnm.com pricing looks like.

Anyone with a J1A-GT or J1B-S spec-sheet can tell me if under "Interfaces with:" it lists insulators (or anywhere else on the sheet)? Basically wondering if the J1TS-S will have liner compatibility, and from the spec-sheet a few pages back it makes no mention of insulators so I wonder if this means it does not have insulator zips.
J1B-S spec sheet doesn't mention liner capabilities.
Also did anyone notice on the J1TS-S spec sheet the "hem expansion zip" caption on the 4th picture?

Looking at retail prices on retailers sites isn't going to tell you how much it'll be from acronym directly. Certain retailers have better prices than others. Take Forward for example:
http://www.fwrd.com/mens-brand-acronym/a1392c/
They still have lots of stuff that's sold out elsewhere since they price their items outrageously. Hotoveli's prices are jacked up typically. End usually doesn't have that big of a markup.

Looks like a decent enough SS release to me. Only one GT offering (and a re-release at that) seems a bit anticlimactic.
Where's J59 and J60, E?
I suppose this J61-WS will be our preview of the J61-GT coming in 6 months.

the most expensive is the one with essentially no mod besides the zip SMDH. if anyone wants to defend E on it, let's hear it lol
Not gonna defend E or justify pricing, but we're getting these prices from a retail outfit that is taking a cut of their own. Prices will certainly be measurably less directly from acrnm.com

1500 doesn't seem like an exaggerated price given the trend of previous drops. .
I dunno. Even with the price increases, 1500 seems extreme to me. Just last season the J43A-GT went for €1327, before that we had J1A-GT at €1228. I mean shit, SS16 saw the J44L-GT priced at €994. The J47 is more basic and minimal than all of those.
I would imagine you'd see pricing similar to SS16's J32-GT which went for €941.

Caught wind of a P24-S from one of the shops.
It's a shame it's not the P24A-S. That pocket array is key.

I dunno what your experience has been with heavy rain, but after a 10min bike ride in what. I consider heavy rain, my -s pants are all soaked through :p. Def wouldn't consider these "very" water resistant.
I have the same experience with the pants. I think the jackets last a bit longer since they're made from heavier stotz

Ha! I copped for a friend who had been trying to cop for a while. He copped at the same exact time as I did, so I had an extra one lying around. I ended up selling it to CARLOOA for retail +$20 +shipping.
I'm not trying to get rich here, friendo.

all good mang, i don't care about resale either way. IMO, not directed at you personally, but I just feel that whoever sells for above retail on here needs to stop whining abt resellers.
Most of us have ethical problems with people who aren't enthusiasts and merely buy for the sole purpose of reselling. That's a given. However an enthusiast who has either outgrown or is tired of an item whose value has appreciated over time due to high scarcity and high demand has every right to ask a fair market price for it. People can and should sell for above retail when market forces dictate. Comparing a scalper to those of us who value our collection is a false equivalence from an ethical perspective.

If we're doing the release-prep posts now might as well get this one out of the way. US duties cheat codes.
If you order a jacket valuing over $800 from Acronym and you live in the USA, you'll be paying painfully high duties.
HOW TO LOWER YOUR DUTIES IF YOU LIVE IN THE USAUPS Brokerage accounting department 866-493-7140
Give them your tracking number and tell them that you have a package due to arrive and it isn't classified as specifically as it should be. And as a result of its vague classification, the duties are set way too high. This is actually true.
They might be able to change the classification right then and there, but sometimes they will tell you that you need to speak to the agent in charge of your package and they will give you the number for that office. If they don't just call the Dallas office. They usually have their shit together there.
UPS Shipping and logistics Dallas office 972-304-6978
If you give them your tracking number they should direct you to an agent in charge of your package. Explain to them your situation. They will probably give you a classification that Acronym specified (6203.33.xxxx) which has a duty rate of 27% which is insanely high. Tell them that the classification is not necessarily incorrect, but it's just not specific enough. Give your agent the following classification numbers:
6201.99.8010 - for Cotton (Stotz)
6201.99.8020 - for Wool (LP - that would be a pleasant surprise)
6201.99.8030 - for synthetics (SS, WS or GT)
This changes your rate to something like 4% and saves you hundreds of dollars.Once your agent confirms the rate change...
UPS bill pay - 803-502-2525. Call these people and pay your lowered duties.Much thanks again to CARLOOA for tracking down those classification numbers.
