I just wish they make P23's cuff little wider.. 

Agreed. There’s nothing more frustrating than trying to get your foot through the bottom of your pants and it gets stuck. Really makes you appreciate some of the wider ACR pant models and even older P10s before they nerfed kneebags.

Yeah even the MIC P10DS flew out the door. I'm guessing the production numbers are still based on all the hype around the brand and the hype is waning.

As garish as some of the upcoming clothes that are part of the Blazer drop look, I still think that's gonna change real soon. I really hope I'm wrong, but between the Acronym x Nike collab just around the corner and the not too far off SS22 Acronym x sacai drop... But whatever, that hype will pass eventually in a few seasons I'm sure

3A, prices are as expected, cool thing the 3A-1-LEFT is in too.

The price increase doesn't really surprise me. But the 3A-1 gained some weight according to the specs, and that's interesting. Guess the new metal zip is made of something super high density lol

lol that’s bad, post the link for the rest!

Don’t have a link, but here’s a few more that have circulated since my last post. I’m sure there’s more to the capsule, including the Blazers obviously

Recent SISP collections make me find this believable

Sorry for the embed spam, but here's some Acronymjutsu from a Japanese retailer. Nice to see the J1W and P30A from the second drop

Also, there's a JP shop with some bits of the retail drop: https://www.urban-research.jp/products/list.php?brand=ACRONYM
Has some pretty convincing product shots of the P41-DS, for me at least.

Really loving the comparisons lmao. J1W looks like it's gonna be great for layering and big bois. Also really glad the flap is back even if there's still a zip beneath it

the P24A-E is definitely top of my list
if they drop a J68-E i may just jizz my pants

Same here, but part of me knows that's just because I'm settling for the "next best thing" to P24A-S or P24A-DS, which go for ridiculously high prices even second hand in just about every size. While some pants look better in Encapsulated nylon (imo) like the P10A-E (especially in Alpha Green) and definitely the P34-E, I'm not totally onboard with the look for these. But at least I'll have a shot at this particular model of pants, and hopefully now that there's finally more P24As prices will come down for older pairs in Stotz and DrySkin, or Errolson will see how much they're loved and give them more releases

nice, any sign of a p23-e?

I can't tell if the list of items is complete or not, but my guess is that if there even is going to be P23-Es, they'll be only available on the mothersite. I know P24A-Es are coming, and they're not on that list like a lot of other confirmed stuff like J93 and J99 - so there's pretty much guaranteed to be more acrnm.com exclusives.

Also, I don't really have connections and definitely not access to Subnet either therefore I'm not gonna have a lot of info. Just speculation. I'm "lucky" I got the stuff that I got, and just wanted to share it because the gatekeeping in the ACR community (on or off Sufu) is excessive. Figured knowing what's coming should help potential buyers plan for what they want. That being said: Some people in a chat were mentioning Oct. 20th, so the drop may be happening then. Also, the NG4 is approximately $295 USD after conversion from a Chinese retailer? Maybe the price will be less at other boutiques, idk. Last thing I know: The new -GTPL is PacLite Plus, which allegedly is thicker with better abrasion resistance. I'm sure it'll also be warmer for the colder seasons and have better insulation properties than the standard PacLite used in SS21. Shared all I could and probably won't be able to answer any questions. Enjoy the pics!

Most of the upcoming retailer drop has already circulated, but I basically stumbled upon these and figured they're worth sharing:

Mothersite just updated with J38-LP, P38-DS, J98-SS, J29-LP, P38-AD, LA6B-DS, and S14-BR. Nice to see the P38-DS has black zips like the -GT had. P24A-E is mentioned in product captions on the J98 page, so that's now confirmed and hopefully dropping soon. Also mentioned in captions is a J90-SS, V5-PX, P44-DS, J93-GTPL, J3-HY, J99-WS, and an explicit mention of the upcoming P41-DS

Here's another angle of the J16, and I'm not sure what pants. I've heard rumours about new P23s but I can't tell from this pic. I've also seen a few mentions of P30A-Es, so maybe we'll be getting 3 colours this time around? Whatever pants they are, the Night/Navy colour looks sick and I'm happy to see more use of it

Edit:

Another pic of the P41s I think. Not sure why the shoes are blurred, but a theory is that these could be the upcoming ACRNM x Nike shoes. Still, can't tell. Second pic is from SS22, and I really wish the quality is better, but I think I see P10As of some sort. I'm guessing the colours and patterns are weird because this stuff is probably designed in collaboration with Chitose Abe's sacai label.

Here's one I missed. I'm not entirely sure what it is, but I've heard that it could be a new NG4 with different coloured zip options. Personally, I'm most excited for the new J16. It looks really good in Alpha Green. My guess is that it's going to be similar to the recent J69 with what looks like stretch panels and could get a -HY suffix. But what do I know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyone else have a favourite or a planned purchase? I haven't seen the alleged new P23s yet but if they do drop, I'm definitely going to be trying to get a pair of those.

I've got pics of items from the upcoming season. Are they okay to post? Or should I just DM them to those curious?

Edit:

Items no longer FS

So I've been daily driving a 3a-1 for the last couple of years with 13" to 15" laptops, need to use a mac at work though and got a new 16" macbook pro this week that I can barely fit into the 3a-1. While its still possible, I get really uncomfortable with how the teeth of the zipper scratch against the device. Would preferably add some kind of sleeve as well and I have a hard time believing I could make that fit into the 3a-1.

At the moment I'm leaning towards purchasing a backjag laptop insert for my 3a-5ts and start using that as my daily instead, it's a far bulkier bag though and I'd miss the mezanine pockets on the 3a-1 which are so extremely useful. The insert alone is €150 if I'd want to add a pair of MK1s that another 2x €250 at which is feels I could just as well comission a bigger 3a-1 for a similar price. 

Anyone with similar experiences of the 3a-1 and bigger laptops or with some input/advice? 

Similar-ish situation. When I bought my 3A-1 in March I didn't quite yet understand the way the bag wraps around the body, and after having judged the bag measurements online I thought that it would be an appropriate tool to carry my late 2018 13" MacBook Pro around. It's a pretty slim laptop that fits into the bag just fine if I have to make it work, but this obviously ruins the shape of the bag. In a pinch, this would be acceptable except for the fact the bag isn't padded. Around the time I ordered the bag I bought the BagJack 13" laptop sleeve...which I think is made from Cordura. While I do like the sleeve even if it is a bit expensive, it's kinda bulky and really prevents me from wearing the 3A-1 in the way it was designed to be worn. Maybe I should have looked into the 3A-5 but my initial impressions of it led me to thinking it was too big for an every day bag.

I too would miss the mezzanine pockets on a TS bag, but if you really need to carry a laptop with you, I think a 3A-5 would be best. I also don't really see the point of commissioning a custom 3A-1 that's larger because wouldn't it still have the same issues but just be bigger? In addition, the BagJack inserts are pricey but would be at least cheaper than a custom bag, and also I can vouch for the quality - they're really well made. Kind of a newb to Acronym, but hope this helps ✌️

into this colour of (what looks like a slightly tweaked version of) the Seque. 

The pic is a little grainy, but I like the colour. It's still bright but also somehow comes across a little more muted or subtle than other presentations of this shade. But I can't help but wonder how it will be incorporated/fit into the rest of the Veilance line.

@hanzen1138 veilance don’t tend to go back through their palette of previously colour ways often but have employed similar hues so you may find something close to loden and vapour in future collections.

Ash and various navy hues have come back, but colors like Loden don’t usually come back by the same name. Vapour is somewhat close to Alloy, and there is supposed to be another white/light gray color for FW21

Ah, disappointing but good to know! Looking forward to the A/W collection. Finding Moondust from S/S this year was already kinda hard because I just bought it recently, but it is much darker in person compared to the product shots, so maybe I don't need to hold out hope for Loden after all. Still, that looked like a really nice colour, though... Thanks!

Somewhat new to Veilance but I've already collected 3 Frame shirts because I loved the first one so much. I was just wondering, do older colourways ever come back? Obviously there's always a black but I was wondering if they just rotated through the colours each season. Definitely looking to add Loden and Vapour to the closet

WTB the following:

• P10A-E in black and size small
• J78-WS in size small
• J81-WS in size small
• 3A-WB2

Located in the CONUS and willing to buy anything used as long as the condition is a 7/10 or greater

Congrats on your first purchase. 
 

Yes, a Small insulator will fit into a Medium shell, you’ll just have the tiniest bit of slack towards the end of the zip but it doesn’t affect the functionality.

 

I can fit into Small ACR jackets as well but if I wanted to account for layering, I’d go a size up for safe measure. For frame of reference, I have a size Small J1A-GTPL, I don’t plan on layering with this jacket. However, I have a size Medium J36-S, so I am able to accommodate a Size Small J65-KM auxzipped into the J36. If the J36 was a Small, I would be unable to zip the jacket up comfortably with an insulator underneath.

 

Everyone has different body types so what applies to me may not apply to you or other users on this forum.

 

Hope this helps!

Appreciate it a lot! The difference between sizes seems small but I suppose even a few CM can make a big difference. Definitely wish the J47 had an expansion gusset for 3A bags like the J76 because my 3A-1 doesn't feel like it gets covered by the back of the jacket much, but maybe a medium will help with this. Or I might just be over-stuffing my bag ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nah, I’ve purchased from Notre 3 or 4 times, and each time almost had to dispute the charge due to no responses from them, no way to contact over the phone, sending the wrong item 3 times in a row-which resulted in the item I actually purchased being sold out, and shipping that ended up taking a month to get to me in California. I’ll never buy from them regardless of sale or no sale! Worst customer experience in history for me.

Weird, so far I've had a good experience with Notre. Currently waiting on a single item I ordered exactly a week ago, but with them being under staffed and probably overwhelmed with orders due to the sale I'm not worried. Saw somewhere they posted a notice saying things would take 7 business days to be shipped out. Honestly in my experience, that's better than ordering from Union LA

Newb here. Spent the $6 mostly to get access to the BST thread but I also semi-recently purchased a J47 just to get an Acronym jacket instead of actually getting the Acronym jacket I want. Total rookie mistake, but don't get me wrong, I do love the jacket and it is WAY better than any shell I've had before. I have a size S NLACG Meta which I am fond of and fits me well so I also bought my J47 in a small. Didn't take into account layering, though. If I get what I want (J36-S or J1B-GT) should I get a medium instead? Things work currently but I don't have the mobility I thought I would have with all the crazy articulation. And will a small AuxZip fit a medium if I do size up?
