Description
A sculptural statement in glossy lacquered leather — Acne Studios reimagines the classic bomber silhouette with an unmistakable rebellious edge.
The Acne Studios coated bomber jacket is a modern interpretation of the iconic flight jacket, rendered in supple lambskin finished with a high-shine lacquered coating that catches the light with every movement. Drawing on the Swedish label’s penchant for subverting wardrobe staples, the piece features a relaxed, slightly oversized cut that drapes effortlessly over the shoulders, finished with classic ribbed trims at the collar, cuffs, and hem for a true bomber proportion.
Practical detailing remains at the forefront — a sturdy two-way zip closure runs the length of the front, flanked by slanted welt hand pockets and a utility sleeve pocket at the left forearm. The glossy coated finish creates a subtle armor-like quality, transforming a traditionally casual silhouette into a piece equally suited to evening wear layered over a slip dress or styled with denim for downtown cool. It’s the kind of piece that anchors a wardrobe — equal parts punk and polished.
This jacket epitomizes Acne Studios’ design philosophy of taking the familiar and pushing it into unexpected territory. The combination of buttery lambskin with a contemporary lacquered treatment speaks to the brand’s ongoing dialogue between Scandinavian minimalism and street-level attitude.

The lambskin is selected for its exceptionally soft hand and supple drape, then treated with a proprietary lacquered coating that gives the surface its characteristic high-gloss sheen. A smooth viscose lining ensures comfortable wear against the skin, while the coated finish adds a layer of protection and a distinctly modern aesthetic that distinguishes this piece from conventional leather bombers.
Styling
Lean into the jacket’s glossy, after-dark appeal by layering it over a black silk slip dress with chunky ankle boots and sculptural silver jewelry. For a directional daytime look, pair with straight-leg vintage jeans, a simple white tee, and pointed-toe kitten heels — letting the coated finish do the talking against matte denim.
Brand Heritage
Founded in 1996 in Stockholm by Jonny Johansson and a group of creative collaborators, Acne Studios (an acronym for “Ambition to Create Novel Expressions”) began as a creative collective before evolving into one of Scandinavia’s most influential luxury fashion houses. Known for its irreverent approach to design, the brand balances conceptual artistry with wearability, building a devoted global following through collaborations with artists, photographers, and musicians. Today, Acne Studios operates flagship stores in fashion capitals worldwide and remains celebrated for its ability to transform everyday archetypes — denim, blankets, bombers — into covetable modern classics.
