    The pics look like it can be worn inside out, hope so.

    I don't think it can, they're just showing off the print. Technically you could wear it inside out... you'd just be wearing an inside out jacket.

    Also, can anyone confirm if the right arm and flak pocket material is FO WS?

    So do pants with drawcord adjust also fit wider than the waist size states? Or is the listed size the max waist size?

    Max waist. You might be wearing them in a slimmer spot than you measured, or measured loosely, or the fabric has some give, or when folded you lose a cm due to thickness (ime the users who say the measurements are wrong almost always measure wrong).

    Easiest way to know is to measure your SP29 and compare.

    As for P44, I would always size for length. if it doesn't fit, most acronym pants have adjustable waists and worst case, you wear a belt.

    Almost as trash as the J1 with the Kraft Single stapled to the front

    L + not rebuilding America + will never make it to the beach + no bridge baby + no DOOMS + no Mads Mikkelsen father figure (literally me btw) + "Hideo Kojima attributes stronger criticism in the US to Americans lacking the 'artistic sensibility' to understand Death Stranding." + not peeing whenever and wherever you want

    For me the p23a style is too iconic to pass up, so I'd opt for a pair of both p23a & p41 any day of the week, but if you don't really care and just want some nice pants, I've heard nothing but great things about p23q.

    I think E wants and trys to make Acronym bigger then it should be, and from what I see it's not working.

    This right here.

    Whether it's Hugh or whoever runs the brand now that he's living it up in Japanese strip clubs, kickin' it with Rod and flying between Paris & Korea every other month (not shitting on him, he built this success, he should enjoy it while he can), it's all about scale.

    Talking about "artistic integrity" (lol), talking about OGs, talking about retailers, blah blah blah, get real lol.

    Acronym tried scaling up production considerably and produced designs that lent themselves to scalability in what was offered to retailers and it simply did not work out very well (constant discounts, massive deadstock). You'd have to be too busy making out with that giant yellow poster of Hugh not to notice the dip in design quality.

    There's no doubt in my mind that (especially since you can access their earnings through Germany's publicly accessible audits) is making more bank than ever, but with that scale comes disappointment fans, it's just a part of the growing pains, you can't please everyone & Acr is evidently trying to figure where they stand in all this. I'm sure we're in for a few more years of experimenting with marketing, community outreach, collaborative stuff, maybe a brick and mortar location, w/e. Brands always want to expand and we're witnessing that in real time here.

    I'm not super keen on anything from next szn but I'm still excited to see what's coming beyond that and I do have to admit it's at least something new, surface level or not.

    TL:DR capitalism, stop projecting.

    “Following the money” isn’t a bad thing.

    If following the money were not a bad thing, due to the implications, I wouldn't be complaining about them following the money lol

    The designs use to scream thorough research and excellent execution, now they scream "look at me look at me look at me" and nothing else.

    That's what streetwear has been all about for a few years now, disappointing but not really surprising that Acronym is following the money in this sense. I'm almost certain that there have been new additions to the design team who are... much younger.
