Acronym.

For the record, waterproof/resistant shorts are such a good thing for those living in tropical climates. The amount of times I've been riding home and gotten soaked on the bottom half is annoying.

don't get me wrong I love ACR gear but I guess none of was thinking "Oh I so hate putting my headphones around the neck while not using them, so I am going to buy this 1K EUR jacket, that have this solution". It's more like to satisfy our inside geek/agentwannabe/otaku/younameit/ninja kid.

This. They're in the business of making weather resistant gear with aesthetic value, so shoes, or rain boots to be more specific, I feel would be the final frontier. For now, I can only dream of the day a pair of boots that look nice, are great for stomping in mud and puddles.

I like the idea of them trying to make more accessories. 

 

Perhaps not shoes. I'd like to see more things like belts, wallets, shirts and bags. It doesn't always have to be ultra-high end material. Just well-considered and designed with a consistent style.

Belts would indeed be welcome, and an area that could do with an injection of ACR-Jitsu

Yes, I've been a fan and collector for roughly 10 years now. Have most of the key pieces. And have sold off quite a bit. As for the dustbag somehow my proxy wasn't able to get that for some reason. Not really needed since my collection consists of black dustbags.

Cheers!

Which are your favorite pieces?

Always hated the branding on the L-J2. The upside down 'A' reminded me of a comic book superhero logo -- biggest deterrent for me in making that purchase when it came out. Should've been removable. That jacket does its job though with the Windstopper®, as it gets hot as all hell when wearing it.

[drgitlin]

Well I'd love to see if you have the time. Having some difficulty visualizing your description.

It's a crappy pic but here you go:

[exhaust fumes]

Acronym X Lululemon collab lookin weird.

JFS nike?

Nah, LuluLemon make yoga threads. Where you get the deets from Fumes?

[shieldsy]

I think he's talking about Jonboy's pic

[drgitlin]

Good thing it's usually covered by a tee or jacket.

[exhaust fumes]

what is it?

 

The pants are basically forming around his butt like yoga pants.

 

That is the joke.

[shoreman]

Good one.

I did say they fucked with them!

My tailor is a lady, maybe she liked my ass?

Which are your favorite pieces?

 

Hmmm. Very tough decisions. At the moment,

 

J45M-BW

L-J11

J38-LP

HY-3VTS

GT-J29 FW1213 version

GT-J27 - original version - the cut on this fits perfectly. For some reason when Errolson designed the PL version, the cut was too big for my tastes, sold that.

GT-J22 - perfect cut, simple, asymmetric zip design.

P10-CH - Grey Melange

P10-S - Black

P14-CH & P14-S

SP9-E & SP9-CH - All colors for summer (best acronym shorts IMO)

J40-CH & J40-S - Love wearing insulator jackets underneath this shell. (J29B-WS works great for example)

SS-J7C

J25-WS

C1-BR

DS-KA3

DS-LA3

DS-J5

LA3-WS

S-J30

3A-1 - Newest Laminate Version

3A-3TS - Newest Laminate Version

3A-8TS

 

SS-JF1B - Dual Hybrid Variable Jacket (on my better half)

 

All of these mixed with Stone Island Shadow Project work in tandem with Catch Pocket Tees, etc.

I'm not sure how extensive other Acronym enthusiasts' collections are...but...holy fuck 

[kampongkid]

If you ever decide to sell that vest..

Not much love for the older gear?

[Dolphinski]

If you ever decide to sell that vest..

If you ever decide to sell any of that shit...

[kampongkid]

^oh yeah not to take away from the rest of the lot. Vest is definitely on my 'wish I was around at that time' list though. It's funny no one was biting when I was selling a medium LJ-2 last year.

Not much love for the older gear?

WS-J1A doesn't get worn Edited February 26, 2015 by kampongkid

[drgitlin]

GT-J22 is indeed the perfect cut. Explaining to people that "yes, it's goretex, but no, it doesn't have a hood" gets a little tiring from time to time.

BTW, just realized I've now been told that my P-16CHs look like hammer pants (by my wife) and the P-9Es looks like yoga pants according to exhaust fumes. Can't win.

Ugh.... I wasn't as active on the buy sell forums at the time. Do you still have it!? Knowing my luck I doubt it! 

[originalprogram]

Call me crazy haha. That's just acronym. And about 2/3 of the collection I have currently. Probably sold off just as much in the past couple years

[originalprogram]

Not much love for the older gear?

Oh I do. I was just saying currently. Have much more than this...

[originalprogram]

If you ever decide to sell any of that shit...

I have been selling stuff haha. Just not any of these favorites. I even got rid of J1A's since I don't wear that style too much. My taste has been simpler and more about layering these days. Though thinking about the new J1A-LP... it never ends... have all acronym and visvim in my life. Fortunate and happy to wear all of it daily. mixing a visvim llamo shirt with P10 pants combine old world and new world has been fun as well... but am awaiting spring and fall/winter 1516 from subnet. Apologies for the rant. Haha. Hope to share the entire collection one day. Cheers!
