I was able to use 6201.93.47 for the S21-DS and duties dropped from around $290 to around $70.
I could see how the 6201.93.4700 could work. I’ll keep it in the bag just in case.

6110.90.9023 corresponds to Sweatshirts specifically, if I’m not mistaken.

Can you post a review when you can? Been eyeing that one.
I think the description nails it completely. Light, fast, transitional. It's thin thin and optimal for small EDC items. Overall, very happy with it.
Sorry if that's too short but those are just first impressions. I'll try to post something more comprehensive after a few weeks of testing.
As far as tariffs go, I'm pretty sure they tacked 6110.30.3010 @ 32% when it should be closer to 6110.90.9023 @ 6% for the S21-DS. I've started the process and have until the 25th to get this reviewed for a refund, as per the UPS agent. I'll keep all my broke boi's posted!

Alrighty folks, the first customs item is in and I've been slapped with a 30% duties tax on the S21-DS. Time to pull up the tariff codes and broke boi the SDF folks for a refund.

J66-GT is the jam. Looking like it has several bags of tricks.

Glasses look like IC-Berlin or Mykita to me, could be wrong but the screwless hinges look rather familiar.

To make things even better, Nike will only charge $225 when they go on sale on Monday. So ACR is adding $140 when you consider they applied VAT and €40 shipping to US orders.
That's that Team Early pricing right there.

Why are there 3 color codes?
That’s 675 plus tax plus shipping. FMLUF!

Wasn't your original point that "the technical and performance aspect of the gear" made it worth yohji-esque prices? That's the part that I'm taking issue with, as other brands are selling similarly designed things in similar materials for a significantly lower cost.
You can make the argument that you can't separate the two, but that isn't how i interpreted your original comment. I don't begrudge the ACR team for raising prices, but I think ACR is fully cementing itself in the high-fashion market vs. the hard wearing, technical apparel gear that brought us here in the first place.
Yeah, that way..

Speaking strictly about performance/technical aspects of the garments, how can it be generous if other brands are using the same fabric and selling it at 30% the cost? If you want to talk about how the price is a factor of a smaller shop, less capacity, etc. that would be another story - but arguing on performance merit alone seems to fall on its face.
Removing Veilance from the equation that is. There are a ton of flowy and frilly garments that go for 3K or better. The argument isn't production/output/value, it's more ACRNM being more likened to Recon than Raf for eons and now that they get some shine we all want to complain about hikes. This was a long time coming. I for one can't justify 1,167 for the X-Pac 3A-1, especially when I got my Limonta for almost half that but I'm still copping what I like moving forward. In a nutshell, respect due. The grind has been a long haul for them and I think it's good to see them get recognized instead of bitten and chewed. It's about time they start to recoup.

Heads up for all broke boi’s, the tariff code for the 3TS should be 4202.22.40.30. SDF almost had me until I checked Chapter 42 and noted that the numbers were transposed as per the earlier post which included 4202.22.30.40 as the tariff code. Be on the lookout and stay broke boi safe out here!!

I think it's also worth mentioning that acronym is more accepted in high fashion circles now, and considered in the same circles of cult luxury brands by those people (ie, a lot of long-time acr heads dress in head to toe acr the same way rick or yohji fans do). If you're into that tier of fashion, paying 2k+ usd for a trench coat/coat of similar cut to j53 isn't that much of a stretch. It sucks that it's pricing out so many longtime fans, but I can't say I'm too surprised at the direction the prices have taken, it just seems to have happened pretty quickly with every season/drop being noticeably more expensive than the last.
To be honest, I think they've been generous. The technical and performance aspect of the gear could have easily gone for Yohji prices some time ago but it's been a slow and gradual build for years. This reasoning is more in line with what seems to be happening. He's taking his spot, which for the amount of time elapsed since its inception, is well deserved.

I don't recall seeing any blazers. Some stockists (ex: Haven & End) already have a few products available. Not sure on when the SI site will drop everything, but most likely in the near future.
Interesting tidbit here, if you add the Stone Island Shadow Project web page to your home screen, it'll pull up the new season. They're already on the site but I never see it when I go through Safari, only when opening the web app on my phone.

Updating on the 3A-3TS front. UPSB adjusted my code and the final invoice came to $70.50. Seems like they may be getting better at processing these things.
Broke Boi's rejoice!

To get back on topic, are the P30s what E had on at Complexcon? Seems like another size for length situation.
Yep. You're correct on both fronts.
