Every single piece of the Acronym‘s Spring/Summer 2009 literally just blows my mind, and the GT-J11L is no exception. This season’s version of the legendary hard shell comes fully equipped with the ‘usual’ features, FORCELOCK, JACKETSLING, and the storm hood, all of which are removable. It’s amazing how this jacket can look sophisticated and very understated at first glance while in reality it’s a highly technical jacket, complete with GORE-SEAM tape interior and 3-layer Gore-tex Pro Shell exterior. There are also seven external pockets and the jacket itself is actually protected by a few international patents.

I don’t know about you, but for me, an outerwear protected by patents and have its own instructional video is simply next level.

And don’t even get me started on the retail price.
