ACRONYM's New Drop Has A Distinct Lack Of GORE-TEX

1 year ago in StyleWords By Tom Barker

The label that has come to define modern techwear has returned with a new collection — and this time most pieces don't cost an arm and a leg.

German label ACRONYM is famed for its huge range of waterproof-beyond-belief outerwear with thousand-dollar price points. However, with its latest drop, things are a bit different.

Bringing its utilitarian expertise into a summer collection, the brand's newest drop available at the Highsnobiety Shop only has one piece of outerwear and prices start at $210 (which is very affordable by ACRONYM's standards).

$250

The stealthy all-black uniform that techwear fans are renowned for has a summer-centered alternative thanks to the German label. Its newest drop consists of tank tops, t-shirts, and shorts — the latter including the brand's penchant for cargo pockets.

All made in Portugal from 100% cotton, the selection of t-shirts and tank tops forefront a number of bold graphics. These range from futuristic motifs to medieval-style typefaces alongside merch in celebration of the ACRONYM® Dynamics Lab.

Cryptically named "S26-PR", the drop also comes with an experimental hoodie. Hiding a large packet and logo graphics, a loose stretch of fabric covers the front of the hoodie and is attached to the shoulder and waistband to create a clean look.

The final two items from the drop include two of the brand's signatures. A lightweight GORE-TEX jacket comes with a host of practical considerations, such as FORCELOCK technology for earbud storage and a JacketSling for hands-free transportation, and a pair of shorts feature countless pockets, many of which are hidden.
