  1. When i checked the first time, they had every size except M. And yeah if i would want to get a J1A i would rather buy the updated one at this point (or wait it for to be released in another material than gtpl)

    I didn't even draw theoretical conclusions here, you did. I just pointed out that the fits look awful as they do on most retailers. Maybe E should write a styling guide so they sell better. 

    Your opinion, fair enough. Where did i draw theoretical conclusions? Do you actually own an acronym pant? My point is, that there are more ways to wear this and look good than shown on the mothersite pics, based on - my own - experience. And yes, some retailer pics do look awful, but in my opinion, these don't, besides the fact that i wouldn't tuck in the shirt on the SP28.

    bro the waist strap is on his belly button WTF no wonder they're all in stock

    The only thing wrong with this (imho) is that he tucked the shirt in, but this is clearly to show the product. Not comparable to the wrong sizing they did for years at END. This stuff can definitely be worn high waisted - just check bachronym's IG for more examples, or even better, get some of it and test it for yourself bc. your theoretical debates are getting tiresome to read.

  4. 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?

  5. just got the S24 in hands and wanted to give a few quick impressions:

    - the fabric is definitely thinner than other dryskin i know (on pants or shirts)

    - also, this thing fits like a tent (Size M on 180cm 77kg). very long and wide in the chest. the hem though is much more narrow which leads me to believe that sizing down isn't an option, it needs some wideness on the hem because of its length.

    not sure if this is something for me - i do see this work with the latest released pants but wearing this for ex. with the P34 gives a bit extreme proportions, but this is up to individual taste ofc.

    That's what I thought. Doesn't help much to reference a sales performance from two years ago as an answer to a current-day question. 

    That being said, I did not recall the S8 going for that amount -- truly wild. By that logic it makes little sense as to why the latest shirt would retail for substantially less, other than perhaps not being made in the EU?

    Yeah i think its probably made in china and produced in much higher quantities (i can only speculate on this ofc). Collections nowadays seem to be high quantitiy, lower price, made in china (J1A, P30A, S24) vs. low quantity, higher price, made in europe (J28, P34).

    And tbh im really surprised the P30A sold out this fast. I thought most people already own one at this point and do not need the new iteration.

    When were there tank tops?

    S8-DS (SS19)

    Price 673 Euros

    Yes, it sold out eventually, but within months. Not comparable to the S24.

    Mine already shipped btw., lets see if it was the right decision to go true to size.

    what I'm trying to say is that DS is TOO good of a fabric to use in the summer. merino/airism shirts not blocking wind is a feature, not a downgrade. If you don't want wind then bring a WS jacket since it'll protect your face/arms/hands. otherwise what else are slings good for

    It seems that you’re discussing this very theoretical (bc haven’t worn a ds tee in real life) while brainerd666 has real life experience with it. Also it’s wind repellent, not blocking, not comparable to windstopper.
    But I get your point and with my experience from -DS pants I’m not sure if this would work for me in like really hot (35C+) weather, I’m still tempted to try though haha

    Yeah, no. Fuck that. Color accuracy is KEY for product photography. 
     

    “14% Grey color pallet reference shot? Nah bro we don’t need that, I fuck with the vibes.”

    Imho a super weak excuse and not appropriate to the product he's selling. But i mean, they got the RAF stotz wrong for years so nothing new really.

    I would have loved more 3A accessories in the new FOIL fabric, especially the MK2, but maybe we'll see this in the near future. My 3TS needs something new :ph34r:

  10. Some comments about J33-E as i just got it in my hands. I know this is SS2019 but as it may be still relevant as it is still in stock.

    I went true to size (Size M, 180cm - 77kg) and really love the silhouette. Yes, it is wide, but i wouldn't say it looks too big. I personally would not recommend to size down tbh but it may depend on overall build. For me, the fit matches the pics from Umit on the mothersite and i wouldnt like if it would look like the one from Ian. Probably a good addition to the recent sizing discussion!

    Material is super nice as well, though it seems to attract hairs/dust a bit easily and of course its not waterproof like gore-tex but therefore a lot more "comfortable".

    Overall happy with my purchase and i can imagine wearing this for many years because i think its minimal enough to be super versatile.

  11. Looking forward to hear about experiences with it as soon as its out (P38-GT). I'm not sure i would like GT as a material for pants tbh (no stretch, loud af). I also expect them to be priced quite high.

    About the J33-E, i finally pulled the trigger for one yesterday (almost two years after its release lol). Went TTS though - i will let you know how it is as soon as i have it in my hands.

    Prediction: If Errolson really breaks ties with his Chinese factory, they will sell the designs, patterns, and production, as almost all Chinese factories do. Hopefully, J1E will be in production by then and J1A 2.2 will be at least somewhat considered outdated.

    I doubt he will though. It seems to kinda work for them to essentially have two lines - one with experimental designs produced in europe for a higher price, one with the more in-demand designs we all know and love (P10, P30/P31, J1A/B, J68, ..) made in china for a "lower" price and with higher stock. But as always with acrnm we don't know until we see it i guess.
