The much anticipated R3 sunglasses by Recon have finally been released. Featuring a Futura design and coming in a custom Acronym pouch, produced by Bagjack, the sunglasses are now available at Recon NYC and online for 200 USD. The sunglasses come in black and smokey grey. The R3 sunglasses are limited to 1000 pairs, 500 in each colorway. The R3P2 case is also sold separately.

Have a look at both colorways of the R3 sunglasses after the jump.

Acronym got together with Medicom to design a 100% Bearbrick. Just like we are used from their clothing line, the Bearbrick also features very technical graphics, following strict lines and sticks to black and white. Images via Hideaki Shikama.
At this point we are not sure when it will release, but we will keep you posted.

A couple of weeks ago we presented you an extensive feature of the upcoming Stone Island Shadow Project collection, designed by Acronym.
Now the micro/website for the project has been launched, once again showing you some images of the line, as well as giving lots of background information. Via Beinghunted.
Check it out here.

Since a couple of months we have heard rumors about Stone Island working with the design team behind Acronym on an upcoming Fall/Winter ‘08 capsule collection. We could not imagine a better fit. Both brands are known for high quality outerwear with lots of technical features and material research involved. Now we finally came across some more information on “The Shadow Project” and can also show you a first piece of the line.
“Stone Island’s Shadow project began as a discourse between Sportswear Company owner Carlo Rivetti and the design team of Michaela Sachenbacher and Errolson Hugh, also known as Acronym. A platform for exploration, the Shadow project rapidly evolved into a system based program for a new generation of urban masculine apparel.

This is certainly something very impressive we did not see coming. As most of you might be aware, Recon is about to launch their new R3 sunglass collection, with one of the first models being a collaboration with Futura.
Today first images of the case for the R3 collection came up and it looks like the R3-P2 case has been developed by Bagjack, premier bag makers from Berlin, and Acronym, a label known for its high quality technical clothing. The pouch comes in black/army green and looks very similar to the rest of the Acronym bag line.
This is just another reason for a purchase!

Acronym has released their Spring/Summer 2008 collection. There is not that much left to say about the brand – technically there is nothing like Acronym out there and in a market that seems to change rapidly, they have stayed consistent with their product, offering innovative military inspired technical gear.
Their Spring/Summer 2008 collection is no different. This season they offer a range of lightweight shell jackets, shorts as well as short-sleeve shirts.
The entire collection is now available at The Glade. Check it out in detail after the jump.

The much anticipated Acronym Fall/Winter 2007 collection has been released today. People that care about technically advanced gear cannot get around Acronym, as they present every season solid and functionally well thought through collections.
Their new Fall/Winter 2007 collection is the largest offering to date and offers a nice selection of jackets, shirts, hoodies, crewneck sweaters and accessories such as bags, beanies and scarfs. At a first look it all appears to be rather simple, but each piece and every stitch have their own purpose.
