    It seems to me that it is.

    I have a j1a 2.5 that I always took perfect care of it.
    Never bare skin, never in bad environment, always nikwash, always in the closet when off season, you name it...

    Still it got some delamination on the collar, okay not visible, in a folding part, I thought...

    then I wore it only a couple of time in the last season, because of good weather, then "okay, I clean it, put in closet".

    Nikwash at 40 degrees, then dry to fix the TX waterproof and it came out fully delaminated. After that I said goodbye to GTX products, especially considering that I have older schoeller and Stone Island textiles that are still in perfect condition and fully waterproof.

     

    I always handwash mine because I'm super paranoid about this happening. I can imagine all the movement in the washing machine and the temperature is just too much for the material if you happen to wash it frequently.

    I have always wondered what the function of the extra collar zipper on the J1A is for, can someone enlighten me?

    You can only close the upper zipper and leave the inner zip open for easier air circulation.

    When wearing a bag in interops you also use the free floating part of the zip to put the strap underneath so that it stays in the correct position. It can be a bit finnicky but I like the functionality and the way it looks when closed.

    Does anyone know what model it is and when it will drop?

    Pictures taken from the white 3a-6TS which dropped lately.

    If I have to guess, I would say it looks like a P43 DS

    It's the p43 gt and it has been out for months 

  4. I recently bought the J107-SS and the p41-ds and I love them. I also have had the J91 for over a year and I really love these designs, they have proven to be very practical and sharp looking. However It makes me wonder as to why they are still in stock in nearly all sizes and colors. Is Acronym restocking them or did they just produce massive quantities that take longer to sell out? It makes me kinda worried as they seem to have alot of deadstock and it only gets more with every drop...
