While I understand reflective material’s function to clothing, I’ve never found it to be something E needed to benefit from with his concepts/designs. It’s actually something i’ve always considered him above until that one season with shadow project with the reveal coat. It was a great surprise to me, especially considering the “rainbow” reflective material was beyond tacky imo.

 

Bk3 is cool, don’t get me wrong, I’ve always desired a balaclava, but it is far from what I expect from ACR. I’m not about the  reflective material being incorporated and that alone in enough to be disgusted.

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

I like the j97 silhouette and was happy to see a wb400 makeup. I previously had a 48ss and liked the substantial and thick fabric with fleece backer for layering or stand alone, but I know when they re relaesed it the price was a bit crazy. 97-ss is made in portugal which is the first jacket I've seen out of there, I know shirts had been previously made there. 97m sleeves were always comically long so glad to see that be fixed here. Size M in both, fits just about identically just thicker and warmer

tyvm!! Looks great, i have the same color of j97m. It’s funny how when i got into acronym the softshells were the least interesting part, but now they’re the first thing I look at every season

I've made good use of mine every year since I got it. It seems a bit thicker than their other insulators. My favourite part is how the snap closures look when layering.

The sleeves on it are kind of pointless for warmth but rather they create a more flattering silhouette when it's worn underneath a shell. It can layer well with other insulators for more extreme cold temperatures.

Has anyone picked up the J110ts? Love to see some fits and reviews on it!

Yes! I bought one in alpha green. I usually wear an XL in ACR gear. However given the "Wide" fit designation; I ordered and L. That was a good choice! It's a great jacket! It is bomber style and the alpha green colour is great. I have had a lot of compliments!

My advice: go for it! You won't be disappointed!

Anyone have a J65-WS ? Looks so comfy, I would love to hear about it.

It's great, very aesthetically pleasing with a long sleeve or hoodie under it. 

I sold it once awhile back ago and it took me way too long to get it back 😅

Anyone picked up the j115 and sized down?

I am wondering if sizing down 1,5-2 sizes is a good idea as i got offered one in a trade and it’s a small. Usually I wear large and sometimes medium in shells.

I managed to try on the jacket in medium, it fits quite perfect with a v91 underneath and massively oversized without a liner, the neck on the medium is perfect for me. I am not sure if sizing down would do the "cut" justice as it’s intended to fit like it does. Also the neck might be too narrow on the small for me…

Any impressions would help!

this is the medium without and with v91 underneath.

I bought a J115 and I sized down 2 sizes from an XL (my typical ACR size) to an M. It still fits a bit big even with a J91-WS underneath. I could have downsized to a S and still had room for a fleecy or hoodie or jacket underneath. It is a very excellent jacket but when they say it fits Wide . . . It fits wide!!!

You should be able to wear a small without a problem.

Thanks! Could you share some images? I’m 188cm, 84kg. Would you recommend a medium or large?

I am away right now with a different jacket, but I will post some images tomorrow. I am 178cm and 90kg and a I wear a medium and it fits loose even with a J91-WS as a liner. I would not go larger than the medium for sure; in fact you could wear an S comfortably.

Oh in your previous message you said you picked up a large in the J110. Did you swap it out to a medium instead?
