Acronym.

Can't shake the feeling that acr's depleted its design language.

Johanna Schneider was a huge loss and I don t see any new one as good as her that came in.

You shouldn't extrapolate your opinion to everyone else's opinion...

J105 is almost gone in Black except for M, for example. Black/White is out of XS and XL too already after two hours.

> two hours to sell two sizes for one piece

Acronym in its prime sells out all sizes, for all pieces, in 10 minutes or less

Correct, and you guys complain whem it sells out too fast, when it sits for a day, when it is too expensive, too cheap, too original, too re-release, too ...

I think the formula right now is just to add more flaps and to jack up prices for every collection

How many years has it been since they first started? It's been a good run. Maybe the expectations now are a good season every 3 years

Either that, or release archive pieces as new ones. J4 becoming J111, J10 becoming J97, J46 becoming J103… The gap between retail pieces and exclusives has never been greater

Was visiting the Haven website today. Lengthwise, they have complete different measurements.

J105

ACR says 68cm on back in size medium 

Haven says 74cm

Same with 111, 119…

Am still confused by this choice - feels like a lame marketing gimmick-

[XLARGE]

I think that Kiddie Cat maybe is not doing him good design wise.

All these wack overpriced sunglasses he is wearing and even worse are those ugly ass Balenciaga shoes with those outfits. 
I loved when they wear dirty Vans, techy Nikes or whatever. 
But those outfits mixed with weak ass high fashion shoes and jewellery just don’t get me. Sorry. 
 

Some items are still good though.

Fuck sakes, please let there be an FC3 or other headwear iteration in PX.

Just curious if anyone has encountered this issue. I ordered 23ss drop A (J105 + both colors of FC3-WS) from the mother site on the 23rd, and I'm expecting to receive the stuff today (I'm in the US), but now the UPS seems to have some trouble getting the clearance information from the ACR. I haven't encountered any problem like this in my previous mother site purchases (all shipped to the US).

In NJ and seem to be dealing with a similar issue (also ordered J105). You should receive a call from UPS to collect your TIN or SSN so they can submit for clearance. It sounds sketch, but I think it's the only way to get it moving.

Gotcha, and thanks for all the details. I'll try reaching out to them tomorrow.

111 aka e-j4ts taobao version is functionally completely the same but ends up really mid w/ the rib hem and cuffs instead of velcro tab cuff adjuster and speedlock hem. strange choice. cost saving move or just trolling?

Can’t remember which retailer it was:

[MatKraus]

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...

I think it is just a combination of them switching a lot of products to being Made In China and thus being able to produce more at a lower cost than in the years before that. Plus the hypebeast fad that started off in 2017/2018 seems to have died down, which isn't a bad thing per sé, since those kinds of customers aren't in it for the product, but mostly for the value of it and they were the ones using bots to buy out everything back then. Wouldn't worry about it.

Whoever thought the J105 could be a little short: Acronym mothersite said 68cm length on the J105 in size medium 

But actually it’s 75cm without the collar.

As a tall skinny…. … I love it!

I was kinda irritated on the product pictures, because it looked longer. Haven had the right stats so I gave it a try.

Would like to know about J111 too. Maybe someone can measure it?

These newsletters are so cringe already (speaking to the wide-pants email that went out today). If they feel they have to stoop to this level of marketing, they should just lower the price...

Click here for more button is also...not clickable.

Glad it wasn't just me. It's hilariously "minimalist". The newsletter is literally made up of 4 image links and the only text is the unclickable one you see above. There is no attempt to be different, add any messaging (wheres the news in this letter?).

They need some flash in the pan.

Just got my J111. I think the quality of the new CH fabric feels a little poor. What do you experts say? It's not completely smooth, little things stick out here and there, hard to explain, see picture. I don't remember this on my old J59 or P23TS. Is it just my jacket that's wrong? Or is this to be expected these days?

[bboysparrow]

Acronym won't know unless you show them. Email their customer support with that picture and ask if theres something that can be done. At these prices it's not really acceptable

I ordered J105 with both colors of FC3-WS from the mother site but only received the J105 without the two hats just now. Have no idea what the ACR is doing......Having such a crappy service at these prices doesn't make any sense.

Why not get the same hat in multiple textiles rather than the same hat in multiple colours? One of the cooler parts about Acronym to me is the product codes allow you to experiment with what fabrics work in what conditions
