The P59A-E looks pretty good. If ACR lowered the crotch a bit and made it in DS instead of the plastic E; I would buy a pair!

P59A-E don't exist. its P59A-DS on the pic

[jeddyhsu]

Found this guy's video who goes pretty in depth on his review of the j86-gtb + took the time to include english captions. No techwear-influencer nonsense.

true DS is synthetic but it "Feels" like a natural fabric to me! 🙂

“It’s hard, it’s hard to make this stuff. Like, when I make something that I think is really good I don’t even want to sell it. I want to keep them all. Like, I’m not giving this away, do you know how hard this was to make?” -E

 

Such an interesting quote from him, especially in 25’. I can’t help but wonder what specific items he might be talking about considering the brand’s overall design change in direction we’ve seen over the last few years, or if he’s reminiscing on a feeling he had previously. 

 

Side note: Would love a pair of P30AL-HL

j28-e selling out literally by 11:01 is actually crazy.

also the fact that they only put out a khaki colorway.

i like the 1480 price point though.

wait... is that a brand new collar design? 3d collar + tucked hood on the exterior is... beautiful.

it's quite tall though but I suppose the j28 collar always has been.

i hope acronym puts out more lowkey, profile jackets like j27/32 soon.

I'm very suspicious on how fast that sold out, I get it's a unique colourway but that was ridiculous. It was sold out within 20 seconds. I had the page loaded at 10:00:03, in the cart by 10:00:10 and was clicking to put through the order at 10:00:20 and it was saying sold out.

If these recent drops haven't been hit by scalpers then I'll give all my Acronym pieces away for free.

I personally wouldn't pay retail for any ACR alpha direct piece since there are so many other good alternatives (Senchi, Timmermade, Gnuhr, etc) that'll serve the same purpose for far less. Can't fathom paying 891 euros for a button up AD shirt (LA1-AD). 

 

Yeah 200% I bought so many different colours of Gnuhr's long and short sleeve AD pieces. I love them so much and they're so adaptable I imagine compared to ACR AD pieces.

I pretty much live 24/7 in my Gnuhr Shag tee

Surely it’s not that limited? Must be low stock and bots?

[mariahscarry]

Yan90 probably got an M and L for WTT…

They could have down more then 1200 worldwide, or more.

I remember camping at work to buy J28 gen 1.2 back in the day. I snatched it in a minute or so, and it was sold out in five minutes. Mind you, that was probably the peak of acronym and techwear hype in general. I don’t believe they’re able to sell the same quantities in seconds now when all other items sit in pretty much all sizes unsold. Looks like they’re releasing most popular items from the past in super limited quantities.

Do Gnuhr tees shrink much when washed?

They don't.

 Btw all v.2 - ad items have slightly different version of alpha direct (compared to v.1) with longer fibers, which looks pretty ugly irl. I immediately sold v2 gnuhr sweater.

None at all. Or at least from the 5 or so washes I've done. I have a few pieces so I don't wash as often as others may.

EDIT: but I'm talking about the Shag Alpha Direct tee's I have one of their regular Tube tee's but got it too small so haven't worn it.

Really? I think they look great, depends if you're the type of person to involve a shaggy look, but I'm a mix 'n' match king, so I love combo-ing styles.

same, but prefer v.1. - looks better, not likе acr -AD, but ok.

v2 is too shaggy, feels like a plucked chicken a bit.

Is J127-GT the first ACR jacket that uses ePE GT? Arc's been using this PFAS-free GT since the beginning of the year and many say it doesn't perform nearly as well as OG GT.

I believe the only other GT jackets that has ePE so far is the new iteration of the J79TS and the J14. Instead of using the ePE abbreviation in the description on the 79, they just spelled it out as expanded Polyethylene/Polyurethane.

I had that J28 in my cart like 5 times over 1.5 hours after the drop. It kept getting sold faster than I could physically click, I'm 100% sure there are bots. A real shame that you can't get the interesting drops these days.

Erlsn has been pretty active on Twitter talking with Japanese Acronym fans about bots and trying to track down who has been flexing photos of like 10 J104s

[MatKraus]

There might as well be only 20 J104s worldwide how is that even possible...If only there could be some kind of system in which longtime customers could preorder the popular stuff so that the fans can get what they want.
