The pertex j1a is crazy thin in person, you can see a bunch of the inside seams in the light 

Pertex is extremely lightweight and breathable, plus it's white so it makes sense for it to be translucent. Really hoping this surfaces in the coming seasons.

The camo Colette jacket however, is straight up transparent when shown against the light at invariance, moreso than the pertex 1a. You can kind of see here how much more thin the fabric is here around the sleeves.

ya. too big and small at the same time

Size chart definitely looks off, but having tried on couple sizes of the J70-BU, I think one should also consider the thickness and stiffness of the Burel wool fabric. The fabric is quite thick and stiff, gives it a very 3D, slightly boxy look.

If you take those into account, the jacket is pretty true to size (straight fit), apart from maybe the sleeve length (not very forgiving as you can't stack it).

You will also want to wear long sleeves underneath (yes, its itchy), but this jacket is a work of art and very pleased to see acrnm took its time with this jacket.

All Spikes will be removeable by Velcro, so if you don’t like it just don’t attach it. 
 

I am really looking forward to add some ACRONYM branded spikes to my collection tbh. Not sure if it will be the j36 or the j1w for me, both got their pros and cons. 
 

For the pants, you can just switch the quick release if you don’t like the spikes. Afaik this will be the only spot where they are attached, also with Velcro. 
 

For me the 24 stuff is definitely more interesting then a lot of stuff from the past two years.

@leg yeah got you, old acronym is in some terms better, I am personally stuck somewhere around 2017 with the stuff atm. 

There is a lot of stuff I personally don’t like from the past two years at least, yet I am still into the brand as there are constantly interesting pieces dropping. Maybe it’s kind of tricky to just drop nice pieces at this scale they are currently operating, I don’t know.

I adore the p30a but they are already borderline costumewear if not balanced out. Spikes are really gonna push that. On the other hand, I guess they’ll be even more perfect for BASEMENT lol.

unrelated, did anyone get the new j97? Love love love the j97m, curious to see how it fits with the more structured fabric.

In the end it’s a business, if they don’t sell their stuff the will propably cut the super loud graphics. 

Could also go the other direction. This stuff may sell really well and all we get is heavy branding.

The spikes obviously have a goth/punk thing going on. I guess it translates well since its all black. Not my preference
