Acronym.

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

Incremental upgrades like that are welcomed of course. I always liked how Acronym balanced between form and function, but recently it seems that they're pushing form over function with no particular reason, except to make it look different (so they will have an excuse to push price higher, because selling exact same item for x2 price would look too greedy).

Not a big fan of all the fiddling with proven designs either, but the bib/apron is a cycling feature. If you're from a city where cycling is your main mode of transport, the leg flaps are super useful to keep your pants from getting soaked. IYKYK.

I have always found that when I wear my j28gt(17) in heavy rain, my legs often get really wet since the jacket is cut quite short.

Personally, I would see a lot of utility in the apron, but not enough to buy another j28 in place of my 2017 version.  

As a cyclist, I suppose the flaps might make sense, but I would be too annoyed by the motion of my legs hitting the flaps to ever use them.

Hi, i am New here and would like to start with a question.

I recently stumbled upon an Acronym sample, J97-M and purchased it. Are samples quite common? Is this legit? 
And could somebody help me with a wash tag, Since mine hasn’t one?

Regards

K.

Interesting to see this side of things tbh. I've worked with a couple different stages of pre prod and sample stuff, and I like seeing how different companies label and iterate. For example, final sample items from The North Face will have the O on the internal label not filled in.

I was watching this too, the price was quite ok imo. Are there any design differences to the actual release? 
 

It’s a big dream to visit one of the archives btw.

Makes sense if you got both since the cutoff is generally $800+, but I was still expecting to pay cause it was closer to $900

Even at that discounted price, any laptop that's over 2 years old should be half price or less. My friend asked their SA over there and he said they have quite a bit in stock so I'd wait a bit longer. The price will drop even further.

Did you use Paypal’s conversion? That shouldn’t be the amount they use on the invoice it’s just Paypal giving a shitty conversion to skim. Always use ur banks conversion ime.

edit: it might be slightly over the $800 threshold now with the current exchange, last week was ~1:1

No, I don't use PP's conversion rates. It was $841 so I guess I was rounding up. Still expected to be charged customs fees.
