Acne Studios Debuts Its First Official Bag Collection

introducing the rope, buckle jeans, and hero jeans

by Sydney Gore

Acne Studios has unveiled its first line of colorful leather handbags, therefore certifying us as crazy bag ladies. There's the Rope style, which is designed with rope stitching and adjustable straps that is offered in three forms: backpack, messenger bag, and hip bag. Buckle Jeans was inspired by the uselessness of Champagne bags and the top of a pair of jeans and is available in four different colors. Lastly, Hero Jeans functions as a large, rectangular shopping bag and comes in five gorgeous shades.

"For me a bag is more than an object, it's a personal thing," said Jonny Johansson, creative director in a press release. "When I started looking at bags, the intention was not to do an 'it-bag,' but to explore the world of bags and create different styles and characters. I really enjoy designing bags since it's so sculptural, almost like creating a piece of art."

All of the bags are made in Italy and are available exclusively at Acne Studios stores worldwide and online now. Check out some of the styles in the gallery, above!
