  1. I just wanted to give a brief field report from my last 4 weeks using a few of my acronym stuff during my vacation in Australia and New Zealand.

    P10A-E: I was wearing the pants every evening in Australia and they are super comfy and I really like the pockets where I could store all stuff which I need to go out and be more lightweight! I am a fan of the pants and I think they are great for the upcoming summer here in Munich as well! Light wind and some minor rain weren't a problem at all.

    J76GT + J74-PX + P10-DS (SS16): this was my hiking set-up in new zealand and it was so good. Specially the combination of the jackets with a merino shirt for the hikes which kept me super warm, the rain outside (the hood of the J76GT is awesome) and especially the J74 was easy to store in the bag pack as well. The DS pants are really great for hiking in not so warm climate zones. On really cold days you could combine the pants with a icebreaker or other proper legging and you are good to go.

    P24A-DS (FW16): I used the pants for the flights and everyday use. I love them for travelling. I think in general the DS are really good for travelling and everyday use in different climate zones or fast changing weather areas. As well all my DS Pants are still in great condition, even I used them quite heavily in the last 2+ years.

    Only lowlight was that I poured over my white J76 some tumeric, ginger juice:(. Lets hope that with the washing recommendation a few weeks ago I am able to clean the jacket properly. Damn healthy life style:D.

    If someone interested I can make in the next days also a few pics.

    Does anyone have feedback on the P10A-E's?

    I picked up 2 pairs, but have only tried them on thusfar, and am still deciding whether to keep them. My initial thoughts on the nylon was a pass, but having tried on the black pair today, it's starting to grow on me.

    I think it is a really great lightweigh summer pant. the structure of the material is quite strange in the beginning compared to my other acrnm pants, but so far I like it. I probably  need a lighter belt as the cobra from backjack, but so far the pant works as well without belt. I will use the pants in the next 3-4 weeks heavily during my vaction. Afterwards I probably can give a more accurate feedback.

    Hello,

    Do you still have J47TS-GT BLACK SIZE L?

    I still have the jacket, but I will keep it for now. Maybe I change my mind later, but currently I am quite happy with the Jacket in combination with the J74. Sorry!

    I also would like to have the J1A-GT 2.2 size M (if it doesn't fit or work out for you)

    I can offer cash or the J47TS-GT Black in Large as trade.

    Preferrable UK or EU region.

    I will be patient and see what comes in the future. And I like my J47 everyday a little bit more:D

    The white is so beautiful.

    It is. I had both colors in hand and kept the white one. It's really cool. I use the jacket as midlayer more or less nonstop since November. Works totally good for me and I am very happy with the light, easy to wear and warm but not too warm jacket. Not sure if the jacket will work for longer time in the cold but for the winter in Munich as mid it was sufficient. I took the Large size because M was very tight and I like the loose look which Lenny had on the pics. Normally I take Medium for all of my acronym tops.

    NG8 owners, what’s the width of the neck when laid flat, as well as the height of the gaiter?

    width = 27 cm

    height = 27 cm

    And I love it. It is awesome for the Winter, especially on the bike.

    I've got one in M. The hood has no adjustment so in terms of actual use it doesn't do anything the second theres any wind, and it's very thin as is the entire garment so it does not sit still. Aside from that, the S21 is as others said, very understatement and one I wear exactly as described on the product page; "perfect for all seasons". I wear it as standalone with sling, and as a midlayer when colder without overheating.

    Price wise, it is quite a price increase from the previous versions and it's expensive, but it has some neat mesh cuffs and waistband, and just like most acronym stuff, you won't find it anywhere else anyway so price discussion is moot. 

    I can echo this statement. I wear as well a Medium and it fits same as on the acronym pics. It is very light, packable and looks really cool. I have been wearing it all summer and it's probably my favorite SS18 piece. But I agree the price tag is heavy, but only time will tell if it worth it.

    I think Kith got both.

    Many Thx. That's a shame. I was at the store 2 weeks ago and they hadn't had any of these left. I am based in Europe and ordering from the US is too much hassle for me due to our local custom here in Munich. So many trouble in the past.

    Nah, for this just go normal size m.;)

    wise choice. I ordered Large, but this was way too big. But I am happy with my white J74-PX anyway. I really love the jacket. 
    it would be great if I could find a white J47 as well. fingers crossed for some random dropping in the near future:)

    So fucking bummed. Got back from holiday today, and just opened my order from the latest drop to find that my J72-DS was not included, even though I've been charged.

    In my order was the NG8-PS missing but charged and as well shown in the invoice. After I contacted the support they send the missing part within 24h. But a NG8 is not a J72. I hope you will receive it soon.

    I am 6'1 (185cm), and same weight as you. Not sure what my chest measurement is ATM but with "Straight" fit jackets, I have always worn a Medium. On recent "Profile" shells like J62-S and J69, I sized up to a Large. The J74 is the first time I sized up on a "Straight" fit jacket. I tried both M and L but the Large just seemed to drape way better. 

    The way Umit is wearing the J74 is how the Medium fit me whereas the way Lenny is wearing the Medium is how the Large fits me if that helps. 

    That helps a lot. I am now pretty sure I will need a Large as well for J74. Many Thx.

    I got mine today too. I actually sized up from M to L, and while the fit is slightly oversized, I like how relaxed it fits and appreciate the extra length. The face fabric is so silky its extremely easy to layer with. I can wear a hoodie, J74, and a hardshell, and still have complete mobility. With my J58, there is no way I could layer a hoodie underneath. I couldn't agree more with the double sided entry front pockets too; they're perfect.

    Can you share your measurements as well? I got the Jacket yesterday in Medium and I am 180cm, 77kg and 105cm chest measurement. I really love the jacket but I am afraid it is a little bit too small for me and I am a big fan of oversizing too :). Not sure if I am able to get a bigger size somewhere, but keep a jacket which does not fit properly is also not an option. many thx in advance.

    Curious how you sized, would you recommend going one down or did you go with your usual size?

    I would stick with my usual size. 
    I am 180cm (5.9 ft) and use for all my ACR Jackets size M and so far that works very well. I am normally wearing a 50/52 or L, but ACR is always a little bigger and wider than the rest. The J54-LP is quite big for size M, but as long as you are not too thin and lightweight it should work for you. Specially if you want to wear a mid-layer under the Jacket. Currently I always use my J48-BR as mid-layer and for a long time I used an ISOARA insulated Jacket as well. And that was fitting very well. I hope that helps.

    Forever jealous of 54 owners ...will always regret passing that piece!

    Was my first acronym part which I bought and only because it was the only Jacket available on the web shop at this time. the fabric is awesome and it still looks like brand new. 
    sometimes you get lucky.

    I got black as well. I decided on black because, if I'm going for all black, the tonality and textural difference add a bit more variety. I'm a big fan of PB/FO, MP, and K. I'm really interested on who manufactures the face fabric because it still appears like pertex quantum. It would also make sense with the breathability of alpha insulation to have a really breathable face and liner.

    I hope this can replace my Arc'Teryx Atom LT in most situations. Dead bird logo is too Alpha for me. @branespload

    Sounds good. I am looking forward to try the jacket and I like it very much that they are going new ways in regards of tonality and texture. I really hope for a lightweight, warm and breathable jacket. Looking quite a while for a Jacket which I can wear as stand alone and as mid layer under my J54-LP for the cold winter days in Munich.
    I should get my delivery Monday or latest Tuesday. Let's see.

    Was able to check out several of the pieces in person today; a few of my brief impressions

    J74: I only saw this in the white, which looked amazing -- this is the one piece I actually regret missing out on this season. The fabric is essentially translucent, which I didn't quite realize from the product photos, and the way it behaves in the light in the real world is really appealing. The cut is also quite nice, and I like the black contrast details on the white jacket.

    Now I may reget that I bought black. I was just afraid that the white looks in person not as good as on the pics. But I will wait how the black J74 will look in real and decide afterwards. 
    Many Thx for sharing your impressions!

    And I share your view on the P23A-S. I made the same observation.
