If heat-activated seam tape has failed once, it's going to fail again (eventually). Sooner, by your method, than if repaired properly w/ (N) adhesive.

idk. but my seam tape is still ok. it was repaired about 2 years ago

The new J28-GT looks a lot like Windstopper.

Any speculations about what the internal dropout panels are for? Keeping your thighs dry lmao?

E's really in love with that fisherman bucket hat design!

I miss the OG high collar.

I’ve always been on the fence because of the high contrast center zipper, but these seems a tad bit more muted 

[Kamikaze]

Don’t know about that one.

I would highly appreciate the FFWT concept to return any season in the future to go along with the latest J28 iteration as seen @_vimeo :

I have an irrational fear of wearing anything windstopper, as the fabric is literally as thin as paper. I've seen thicker DHL packing material than WS, even though it's obviously more durable. Maybe it's instinct...

[xc-mtb]

Where can we see the new j28?

 

[robbatussin]

Hoping for a return of pre-launch videos. I've really missed the excitement they used to generate for releases.

Looks like they took down the J28-GT video 

[Sureal]

Damn, I missed the video.  Was it on the acrnm site? anything else besides J28-WS?

Was on acronym vimeo. I only saw J28-WS, nothing else.

Strange, but that shit is unbeatable and durable af. My 61ws is still  in like new cond after 3 years of daily use. Also it has pretty good breathability, so it can be worn even during summer time. 

-WS fabric: active shell ripstop windstopper ZAO or VEGA (don't remember the exact name) like on the J47A-WS, 61-WS, 25-WS etc.  (not like WS on J50, 58, 68, 46)  is the best fabric imo

 To be honest, I much prefer it to GT in almost every way, and even though it's only water resistant, I still wear it as a rain coat a lot of the time.  

This! I know hard shells are sexy, but they are the least useful bit of kit in your pack. Unless you really spend time in the outdoors, soft shells and water resistant jackets > GT.

i recorded it today

enjoy

If it stays in place while cycling to work it’s a nice idea.

Sounds like the leg extenders are secured by Velcro on the jacket, so maybe a little Velcro is on the new pants....

I guess there are buttons. Looks promising 

[piece keeper]

So after 10+ years and 20+ jackets I’ve never seen this logo peel off. 
 

But here is J68-PL after two wears :/ (also note loose thread in top right corner...also never seen this)

[frenchbulldog]

can't imagine doing anything other than switching the logo tape to the blank tape immediately upon receipt and throwing the logo tape into the bag where it will live forever

[GUNDAM]

@frenchbulldog I'll take Ur logo tapes if you have any spare

I’ve had several coats with adjustable length and none fastened to the pants. Though I do have a cp coat with removable pants :D

But I don’t think attaching would work very well in motion because of changing geometries.

I agree here. It seems to have the added benefit of letting rain/precipitation run off below the front pants pocket and keeping that access point dry. I think back to some days when I was younger and the bottom of my pants would be wet, with the pocket area following in a close second.

To mark Berlin Fashion week and in collaboration with the city of Berlin, we've created BERLIN, BERLIN, a weekend-long virtual celebration of the city.

We hooked up with some of the best artists, designers, musicians, and photographers in the city to produce exclusive mixes, fashion films, performance art, a mind-blowing AR exhibition, and more. Next weekend, from January 22 to 24, we'll have a lineup of content from Keinemusik, Sucuk und Bratwurst, Beinghunted, Acronym, Jonas Lindstroem, and Hamburger Bahnhof, to name just a few.

 

Could possibly "just" be an extension to the whole virtual SKY AND COLOUR art gallery or something different
