Acid-Wash Sneakers

These ACNE Bleached Trainers Look Like Denim Footwear

These ACNE Bleached Trainers look like 80s jeans for your feet. Why not? After all, our legs and rear ends get tons love from the denim company, and they also craft jean jackets and shirts to keep our upper bodies looking good.

I'm not sure if the ACNE Bleached Trainers are actually made of denim; however, the bleached uppers definitely remind me of a favorite pair of jeans I owned a couple of years back. My only warning to you if you pick up a pair is not to wear them with a pair of jeans to avoid overkill.
