just got my p10-s XS in the mail. for reference i'm 5'4 male, 150-155 lbs 30 waist. it fits perfectly length wise (thank you errolson for making an xs for the short people) but the thighs are tight if you do a bunch of squats. since this is stotz fabric, it doesn't really stretch out as much, but i'm hoping it loosens up around the thigh area after some wear. over all very happy with the xs length. 

How big are your quads?  At 5'4, 155lbs with a 30" waist you must have huge quads or huge upper body.  I'm 5'9, 160lbs with a 31" waist and my quads are 24".  I don't think I'd be able to fit in an XS and my legs are probably smaller than yours?   

Do you have any fit pics?

what's the process for returning an item to acrnm? do i just ship it back to the return address and they'll figure it out on their own?

Any kind of shipment with that kind of value would merit some sort of prior notification to the recipient. Don’t you think?

Just ping them an e-mail, they're actually pretty quick to respond, and ship to the address on the invoice.

Heads up on vapormax dropping again! Guys

acrn website:)

If you're from t he US, there's absolutely no reason to buy these vapors from acrnm. Unless you're #teamearly and want the dark stucco colorway. Black/Volt/Black releases in less than 24 hours and I'll be sure to buy it for $225 flat instead of $305.

But since we're all overpaying for the jackets, I guess 251.61 € is chump change. For those that want to save some cash and prefer retail price ($225 which equates to 184.30 €), SNS just restocked a FSR: https://www.sneakersnstuff.com/en/product/31867/nike-air-vapormax-fk-moc-x-acronym

I'm shocked... How can the same shoe be 70 EUR more expensive on the mothersite??

I could still understand the price hikes for the hardshells and pants, albeit with a pinch of salt, but this just feels wrong. I don't really see how this can be explained away.

They use flat rate shipping (€45 for everything - doesn't matter if your $1800 jacket weighs 4 micrograms, it'll cost the same as shipping heavy ass shoes). Excluding VAT they charge €20 above retail. Why? Because it's Acronym, their MO is taxing the fuck out of the customers. Let's not forget the duties that we also have to pay.

That ACRNM packing tape costs a fortune don't you know, common knowledge just like the poly bags and copier pæper used for the spec sheets!

That's justification right there ;)

When I received my AVM's from Acronym's first drop, they no longer had the classic ACRNM packing tape. It was plain white and boring. So much disappointment :( At least it still included the Stamped Envelope...

If you're in the US you don't actually have to pay duties on the shoes because they're under $800.

A lot of the EU retailers were charging €250 though so I assumed the extra cost had something to do with tax added to the retail amount. END is apparently trying to compliment their terrible stylings with equally terrible pricing.
