Acne Studios launches the N3W sneaker
“N3W has the look and feel of a technical sneaker yet it’s grounded in the Acne Studios aesthetic.
We started looking at running shoes from the 1990s and early 2000s, but realised that we could have something completely new by simply redesigning one of our classics.”
— Jonny Johansson, Creative Director of Acne Studios
For Spring/Summer 2020, Acne Studios launches the N3W sneaker for men and women.
A contemporary take on the classic running shoe, N3W is an evolution of Acne Studios’ Manhattan sneaker. By flattening the bulky shape, the design evolved into a sleek and sharp running shoe.
Crafted from a semi-transparent ripstop and set on a lightweight rubber sole with angular ridges and an articulated footbed, the ultra-light design is a result of using lightweight materials and heat- bonding them to the panels. With a lace-up front, faux suede eyelet panel and mesh lining, accents of bold lines along the side not only draw attention to the sleek shape, but also add a sense of movement. An Acne Studios logo pull tab sits at the back of each heel.
With a distinctive silhouette, N3W has the look and feel of a technical sneaker yet ultimately grounded in Acne Studios’ design. The sneaker comes in five colourways: black, gold, white/ivory, white/blue/pink and white/yellow/pink.
The N3W sneaker is available in all stores and on acnestudios.com.
