The 'Acne John Pants,' part of the Acne Autumn/Winter 2010 collection, look like long johns with a stylish twist. With two side pockets, an elastic waistband and an easily buttoned and unbuttoned mid section these pants are sure to be quite comfortable.
The Acne John Pants are a great play on an old classic piece of underwear. I wonder how many fashionistos will be jumping on (or should I say in) this trend.
