p43-gt is surprisingly nice, layers over other pants easily and has a good baggy contemporary fit that can easily convert with the zip and cinch. if i snowboarded they‘d feel very burton consulting era appropriate.

haven't had a chance to put them through the ringer yet since it’s insanely hot out and can barely tolerate Stotz at the moment, but a cool shell layer with hella ergo cut.

i‘ll need an excuse to shovel some snow this year

sizing is pretty long as an overpant. i‘m tall so that’s exciting for me. but it has the belt so easily fits. i‘m a 34W with a size L as I do all acr, aside from some M i’ve had since 2015. could likely fit a 38 in there if you didnt have bulky base layer

will share some pics when i can

I honestly think that some models should be left alone. That new collar is really more practical and better looking? Is that stupid hat really better than proper hood? What if I already wear a hat, should I put a hat on a hat? Hood on a snap buttons? Good luck trying not to lose it, because your jacket will be ruined if you do (how many metropolis jackets people tried to sell without hoods? And they’re using zipper). Apron is whatever, since it’s detachable. Sad to see one of the best acronym jackets ruined like that. Literally zero upgrades, just useless features.

Actual facts, can I buy the E1500 version without the hat and skirt?

J28 sucks as a GT jacket so let’s stack on that suckiness. Let’s add a pubic bib and a less awesome collar.
 

That wasn’t good enough.

Ok, let’s add a 60’s era golf jacket collar, ‘hat’ instead of hood, and make the piss flaps tie down and removable so you’ll lose them in your closet.

I didn't like it either but when you put it like that I'm now sold on the new J28-GT. I really fuck with the vision, E

Curious what you disliked about the original J28 as a GT jacket. I do agree with @leg that most of the new changes seem unnecessary and detracts from the aesthetic of the original. That bib/apron seem kind of pointless, I don’t really have much opinion on the new collar although I don’t personally see much benefit it has over the original and question whether a removable hat over a hood is a better design choice utility-wise.

Looking at what sold out on MS though, the people who bought seemed to mainly care about the new color-way rather than any of these new “features”.

center snap closure and new gravity pocket design are good upgrades imo
