Stockholm-based fashion label Acne Studios introduces three new colorways of the Jimmy Label Vintage running shoes. The footwear silhouette draws inspiration from the visual cues of a keyboard and it translates through the outsoles, which imitates a computer keyboard. The shoe's uppers are accented with exaggerated plastic detail, but the highlighting element is without a doubt the soles.
The three colorway options include a white option with beige details, a blue toned version, and a yellow, burnt orange, and brown iteration. There are touches of suede details across the uppers as well, contributing to the mesh and plastic materials. The Acne Studios Jimmy Label Vintage runners are now available for purchase for $410 USD online and instore.
