Btw my recalled J63A arrived at acrnm yesterday, and it only took them a day to repair and ship it again. Turnaround time will probably be about 2 weeks total despite UPS's crazy shipping route (Japan->USA->Germany->Czechia) and some delivery delay due to some supposed "Incomplete address information".

got shipping notice on my two orders - order numbers were both mid 5400s

If only the cuffs wouldn't be clinging to your ankles and send you on a face-plant ...

That's actually how I've been using them. I never expected the drawstrings to hold the pants in place while walking or anything, but once I let them go to close my belt, they instantly slide back all the way and don't keep the cinch at all, which makes them pretty useless to me. I mean in that case I could've just pulled the pants together using my belt and not bother with the drawstrings in the first place. Another pet peeve for me is due to the ultra wide waist, the pants basically drop to the ground instantly once you open the belt - it would've been nice if the drawstrings would at least hold the pants in their shape a little bit. Anyway, I guess the strings weren't intended to have any such function then ... gonna try if I can mod them with some webbing sliders to hold the cinch.

Speaking of P23 variants, am I the only one who can't figure out how to use the drawcord on the -S/-CH properly? The one on the -DS has buckles to hold it in place, but the regular one just seems to end in loose straps for decoration? Is there a way to fix them in the cinched position? I realize you can just tie their ends together but that looks like crap and gets in the way of using a belt...

the j47ts had missing buttons??

updating my previous listing: WTB in 9+/10 condition (& will also consider trades +/- cash adjustments): looking for: J1A-LP size S/M J28-K red size S/M SS-CP1/2 size S/M willing to trade: GT-J29, petrol, size M, full pack, 9.5/10 J68-S, white, size M, brand new full pack J72-DS black, size S, brand new full pack 3A-1 olive, brand new full pack 3A-3TS olive, brand new full pack 3A-3TS L2, 9/10 full pack NG9-PS, brand new full pack also, still looking for high quality scans of the following spec sheets: J1A-GT, DS-J5, J38-LP, SP9-CH, 3A-6TS OG X-PAC, 3A-MSOL1 (people have been kind enough to send me some of them, but none were in printable quality unfortunately)

While I'm all for helping the newcomers with their questions and against elitist behavior... It is still sad to see how these hypebeast kids who drop 2k on a jacket just because it's the latest cool thing clearly haven't even spend 10 minutes on researching the brand they're buying.

Ok now some people are reporting UPS is not delivering their packages due to a "delivery change requested" - it seems like acrnm's trying to get the packages back. While that by itself is certainly welcome, as it saves us from paying import duties for something we have to return anyway (even though they could be a bit more transparent about what's going on), apparently these requests are also affecting packages for orders that do not contain a J63A. So for anyone still having their non-J63 items en route, it's probably a good idea to pay attention to the UPS status and interfere with any unwanted delivery change. What a huge clusterfuck.

So has anyone here actually received a J63A that's not flawed? My package is going to be delivered later today and as sad as it is, I'm wondering if it's best to straight reject it and avoid paying import duties...

they now removed the 63A from the store alltogether - time for a recall?

this season's promo vid is out:

Is there no UK9.5 / US10 available? ...

yeah and they're shooting only a few stations from where I'm at work right now - so tempted to sneak out of the office and go try to get a peek lol
