Description
A streetwear-infused zip-up jacket from Acne Studios, finished with the label’s signature embroidered face motif for an understated yet distinctive edge.
Crafted from a heavyweight cotton fleece, this zip-up jacket channels Acne Studios’ Scandinavian approach to utilitarian dressing with a distinctly modern, youth-culture sensibility. The relaxed silhouette is anchored by a full-length central zip and a structured hood, making it an effortless layering piece for transitional wardrobes. Ribbed cuffs and hem provide a snug, sport-inspired fit that holds its shape wear after wear.
The standout feature is the embroidered Acne Studios face logo positioned at the chest — a subtle nod to the Stockholm-based label’s instantly recognizable branding, conceived originally as a piece of conceptual art by co-founder Jonny Johansson. The graphic is rendered in tonal thread for a refined finish that reads loud on the street but quiet up close, embodying Acne’s knack for balancing irony with craftsmanship.
Versatile enough to throw on over a tee and jeans or to pair with tailored trousers for an off-duty contrast, this piece exemplifies the brand’s off-kilter take on everyday essentials — elevated basics that carry quiet confidence rather than overt logos.

Composition & Materials
- 100% Cotton (heavyweight fleece)
Constructed from a substantial loopback cotton fleece with a brushed inner for softness and warmth, and a smooth outer face that holds embroidery cleanly. The dense knit provides structure without feeling stiff, ensuring the jacket softens with wear while maintaining its tailored shape.
Styling
Layer it over a crisp white tee with wide-leg Acne Studios denim and chunky sneakers for an unmistakably Scandi-cool weekend look. For a sharper contrast, pair it under an oversized wool overcoat with slim trousers and Chelsea boots — the kind of high-low mix the brand has championed since its earliest collections.
Brand Heritage
Founded in Stockholm in 1996 by Jonny Johansson and a collective of creative friends, Acne Studios began as a creative studio before launching its first collection of jeans — 100 pairs named after a generation’s defining cultural references. Today the label operates flagship stores in Paris, London, Tokyo and New York, and is celebrated for its art-informed approach to ready-to-wear, accessories and denim that consistently blurs the line between streetwear and luxury.
