Acronym

[symbebekos]

Does anyone have more information about Acronym than what's on Beinghunted? Pricing? When it coming to LA? I saw the old stuff in Relax, and the new collection looks nice.

Just picked up the GT-J6 jacket here at Recon NYC. Probably one of the dopest pieces I have ever picked up. Insane construction and material. A wool/cashmere/Gore-Tex combo. Extremely well cut. Not cheap- $560 with tax. IMO well worth it.

Recon had a couple other pieces there so I would imagine that they will be droppin in LA soon- try Union. There are a few pieces online at Hanon Shop (thanx RTHQ).

Frank White - thanks. The GT-J6 is actually the piece I want. Think I'm going to head to Union and see if they have it in. Slam Jam is also carrying a few things - I didn't do the math to see if they'd be cheaper than Hanon.

Hanon Shop is really expensive- and I believe that the pieces there are last season.

The GT-J6 is next level. By far the best piece in the line. Subtle. Wait to you see it in person. My advice is pick it up when you have the chance- don't sleep.

***EDIT*** -- Apparently Hanon Shop added the GT-J6 to their site today. For the whopping price of 375 pounds (about $675). Crazy. Decent pics. Check it out.

Anybody know if anywhere other than Recon is stocking Acronym in NYC? They only had one piece out last time I looked in there and I'd be interested in seeing more...

I have one of their jackets too. The nanochelle material one...that material is badass. But yeah, price is really steep. Some of their tee-shirts that I saw in the Recon store were pretty typical though. Is Acronym a NY brand? Or is it even American? All I know is they use a lot of the materials manufactured by Schoeller products from Switzerland.

I hate everything and everyone.

oh it's a Munich Brand...German quality dude.

I hate everything and everyone.

windproof? How the hell does that apply to a jacket? for a lighter yes...jacket? Well, before you explain to me how thick I am yes I know what it actually means but I'm just commenting about the moronic use of language in this example.

I hate everything and everyone.
