wexler 271 Posted July 28, 2018 Tie your shoes @segue!!! Fits on point imo. Shorts are probably playing w how the length looks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danii 108,666 Posted July 28, 2018 What makes the J72 an acronym jacket? It looks like some enfin leve with crossbody jacketsling (instead of two straps) or some 2016 GG item. The AUXZIP imo ruins the simplicity of the jacket and it also lacks the sleeve loops to be fully (correct me if I am wrong) compatible liner jacket. I just hope it did not sell out just because it was the cheapest thing. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just hope it did not sell out just because it was the cheapest thing. The DS version of the J72 really is just a shirt (LA), but as we will see later this year Erlsn has another take on the jacket with slight modifications. IMHO, the biggest disappointment of the J72-DS is the use of shirt sling over jacket sling. Since its a "jacket" by Acronym's definition, they could've easily improved it by throwing on the typical jacket sling, or even a sling design akin to the one on S21-DS. Overall, this is a very versatile and long-overdue layering/standalone piece Edited July 28, 2018 by yankees19032002 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do what you want If for my part am still struggling to understand how you'd access your traditional trouser pockets in the quoted setup, with the slit being in the front and all. And why there is mesh material on the outside of an otherwise perfectly good, weatherproof jacket (pocket). But The Photostrecke is amazing on said pants.

Correlation does not equal causation, but i would not be surprised to find that the influx of money from the Nike contract is what allowed a certain freedom to engage in more ‘whimsical’ looks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it comes across as a bit corny (the brass knuckles and other stuff) because a lot of the 'urban techwear' fit pic posters have gone totally overboard and post themselves with photoshopped Gray Fox masks and katanas and shit. Not really blaming acronym since maybe it's just E styling how he likes without caring whether or not others have taken it to a laughable extreme but it does seem to play into the joke of the aesthetic a bit too much.

danii 108,666 Posted July 31, 2018 Guilty for dropcrotching my pats I am. It's caused because I grew up skating in the 90s and no matter how hard I try I cannot wear my pants in the waist area. So I wear the waist of the pants on the hips, which is obviousy bigger then waist so I need to size up and I am quite short which results in stacked calves and drop crotch. regarding drop crotch in military: (why only military?) 01. aikido hakama pants can qualify as dropcrotch pants 02. nikapokka pants are tradiional workwear pants / worn in WWII too 03. thaibox shorts are pretty dropcrotch (not trying to justify it, just saying everyone it's own, and you can see from the action shots that you can move freely in those) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
