great vid, not often you can see someone fully utilizing capabilities of such jackets and demonstrating it while also making it somewhat fun and entertaining.
been waiting a hot minute. nice review man. think this jacket is one of those that will sit on the shelves for now and be salivated for by archivists later
Thanks for waiting! I won't take as long to make the next thing this time. Good to see you back. And quite true! I always really liked the J4 from 2008 so I was pretty much never gonna pass up this one.
Really enjoy your ACR reviews; super thorough with the perfect amount of dry humor. Cheers mate. EDIT: 3A-1-CR enjoyer as well. I've had mine nearly 3 months and still love just admiring it.
Love this jacket. But there is some weird stuff about it, like the lack of a pocket or another tec-sys rail on the upper right side. Btw the right pocket opening can be opened all the way down and dubbels as a second front zip for a tighter fit.
Yeah the lack of utilisation on the right side makes no sense. As for the zip, I had absolutely no idea it came apart until now and I’ve had this jacket for almost a year haha. Part of the glory of acronym jackets is that they have hidden features you don’t discover until ages after getting the jacket
It's a Sony A7 IV, but the lens I'm using is probably doing the bulk of the work in how good things look. It's a SEL24F28G. It probably isn't necessary to get an A7 IV unless you really want 4k 60 (which is extremely excessive tbh)
The idea is amazing! In reality you're gonna look like a buffoon if you fill that thing up. This type of jacket can only work in a very heavy fabric that barely or doesn't drape at all in order to still make it look somewhat normal once there's stuff in it.
so every time you take your jacket off, you have to fish all your junk out of its pockets. and if you carry anything bulky or rectangular in that, it'll be sitting against your chest/stomach and bumping against you all day. sitting down and not being able to easily take your load off your body like with a bag kinda sucks. all these jackets with tons of pockets just seem silly, at that point it makes way more sense to carry a laptop bag or backpack. i get that this is all mostly for the nerdy cool factor though, and that interests like this don't have to be based in practicality. nice video
Honestly I haven’t found it so cumbersome, I just have my wallet and some gum in the pockets inside the lining nothing too crazy! Having to remove all the stuff you’re storing is true of any acronym item, especially if I want to change trousers as most of mine have like 8+ pockets
@@jackapots lol thanks for responding to what is kind of a hater comment. As excessive as the pockets are, I won't deny that acronym items are fascinating in how they're laid out.
@@monkeysfromvenus haha all good you were kind enough at the end, it's not for everyone and frankly I've been into acronym for so long I have to wonder how long I'll still be into it myself. Long enough to make a few more videos on the topic at least I imagine!
Excellent video and fully support measuring carrying capacity in extreme sports games
Hahaha, love to see you here Antwon!
Needs more pockets

Thank you very much! I’ll do it again

Thank you! A look at the 3A-1-CR might be the next video I make!
i love how you look so happy talking about the jacket :3
Very swag, very cool
Just found this channel. Nice review(s)! Your other videos are good as well. Very comprehensive. Keep it up man, you just got a new subscriber 👍🏽
Thank you!
Perfect for my paracetamols and baking soda!!!
This was my first acronym jacket and I've been loving it.
You’re probably my fav niche internet celebrity. I just like your content, style and interests.
Nicest comment I’ve had in a while! Thank you
Saw this jacket on eBay for a great price, just went for it thanks to your video

The hell, I'm checking this out when I get home. Didn't know this.
Love the content the English Acronym gang is growing!
Wish you said more about CH I think this is the first piece in that fabric they have made in years. I wonder how it compares to S
I’ve actually never had a Stotz item from Acronym. CH seems like a pretty great material though
Great review! Very informative!
Jacket looks cool.
Can your next video be about whether your prefer the THPS series, or the skate series? I don’t know which side you stand on
Hahaha maybe I could one day cover this on tiktok or something, I have a storied history with both series
@@jackapots skate 4 will be good I hope.
dude ur so cool, great vid
Thank you!
whats your camera?

Pretty fair comment, I think using the grid is okay as long as you don't zip the jacket up, which I personally never do.
Who do we have here

Great video. Love that you’re showing all features in detail.
But you really don’t have to speak that fast 😅
Hahaha fair comment
