ACNE STUDIOS AND KAPPA COLLABORATE ON FOOTBALL-INSPIRED CAPSULE COLLECTION

Acne Studios and Kappa have unveiled their much-anticipated 22-piece capsule collection, seamlessly blending Kappa’s sportswear heritage with Acne Studios’ avant-garde design sensibilities. This collaboration introduces a range of apparel and accessories that pay homage to ’90s football culture while infusing contemporary fashion elements. 

Central to the collection are retro-inspired football jerseys available in vibrant pink, black, silver, and blue hues. These jerseys feature vertical stripes, dual branding, and distinctive flame-like prints along the hems, capturing the rebellious spirit associated with both brands. Complementing the jerseys are pastel-toned soccer shorts, second-skin tees, and a coordinated lineup of denim pieces, including jeans inspired by Kappa’s iconic track pants adorned with the brand’s Omni logo down the sides.

Accessories play a pivotal role in this collaboration. The collection introduces a special edition of Acne Studios’ Bowlina bag, embellished with flame motifs and cleat-inspired studs, alongside twill logo caps and flame-accented lace-up sneakers that echo the collection’s fiery aesthetic. This fusion of sportswear functionality with high-fashion detailing exemplifies the synergy between Kappa’s athletic roots and Acne Studios’ innovative approach. 

The campaign, featuring British musician Tricky and captured by photographer Jordan Hemingway, encapsulates the raw energy and ’90s vibe that underpin the collection. As of March 27, 2025, the collection is available exclusively on Acne Studios’ website, with a wider release in Acne Studios stores worldwide slated for April 3.
