Acne Studios Unveils Playful, Sporty SS26 Menswear Collection | stupidDOPE | Est. 2008
Briefly

The Spring/Summer 2026 menswear collection by Acne Studios embraces a relaxed spirit of self-expression and ease, stepping away from formality. The focus is on spontaneous styling, with garments that reflect an instinctive coolness. Influences from the 1970s and 2010s are visible in the collection’s diverse silhouettes, including flared collars and low-waist jeans. Sportswear is reimagined for fashion, prioritizing aesthetic over functionality. Textural variety further enhances the collection, merging unlikely fabrics to create unique, playful ensembles that celebrate individual personality over polished appearance.
Creative Director Jonny Johansson describes the collection's muse as "geeky and quietly confident," showcasing an understated charisma that doesn't try too hard.
Sportswear pieces are styled less for function and more for fashion, creating a playful aesthetic where garments look designed for the wrong sport or no sport.
The collection features eclectic references, blending '70s elements like flared collars and narrow shirting with '00s low-waist jeans to create unique silhouettes.
Acne Studios emphasizes spontaneous styling, championing personality over polish, and an intuitive approach that encourages casual self-expression in daily wear.
