Acne Studios x Fjällräven's first collaboration, exclusive shop in Shibuya

Sep 7, 2018
Acne Studios has collaborated with Swedish outdoor brand Fjällräven. This first-of-its-kind, one-off collection features redesigns of Fjällräven's iconic Expedition down jacket and Känken backpack. This marks the first time Fjällräven has redesigned these pieces. Items like the Expedition down jacket, embellished with faux fur trimmings and reflective patches, are reinterpreted in Acne Studios' signature colors and materials. A women's blue down parka features blush pink quilting and oversized patch pockets. While retaining the essential functionality of Fjällräven, these trousers can be worn long or short by detaching the cuffs. The Känken backpack comes in three colors. It can be used as both a backpack and a messenger bag, and the interior compartment has been redesigned. Other items include photo T-shirts featuring Swedish mountain scenery, authentic sleeping bags, and a new clutch bag. Fjällräven has long been a dream of Acne Studios's. Acne Studios Creative Director Jonny Johansson commented, "Fjällräven is a special brand for Swedes." Meanwhile, Fjällräven's Head of Innovation and Design, Henrik Andersson, said, "When we were approached about the collaboration, we were honored but also nervous. This was our first time collaborating with another brand. Ultimately, those fears were blown away by the time the collection was completed." The collection features a new logo that swaps the logotypes of both brands and lists both their names side by side. Sales will begin on September 6th at both brands' directly managed stores and distributors. The interior of the project store in Shibuya, Tokyo has also been renovated and reopened as an Acne Studios x Fjallraven exclusive store.
