The Swedish label's new collection is comprised of a series of classic footwear silhouettes from the label, but reworked with small new details and made in a series of colorways. The sneakers in the capsule feature chunky shapes such as Acne Studios' Rockaways, Manhattans and Sofiane silhouettes -- available in monochromatic and denim colorways. The Tristan and Batilda silhouettes are the label's sock sneakers and the seasonal reworkings deliver a new "Workwear Blue" colorway and a "Lilac/White" colorway. The [Jimmy and Joriko](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmy-choo-man-extreme) shoes take a vintage approach, as they are coated in new patterns, including a floral print. Finally, the Steffey and Perey shoes are Velcro silhouettes in new colors such as "[Bright Orange](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/old-skool-36)" and "Dusty Pink." To debut the new seasonal capsule, Acne Studios turned to Tage Johansson, the son of Jonny Johansson, the label's creative director. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Reworked Footwear Silhouettes:** Opportunity to disrupt the footwear industry by reimagining classic styles with small new details and unique colorways. - **Chunky Sneakers:** Opportunity to disrupt the sneaker market by offering bold and bulky sneakers with monochromatic and denim colorways. - **Vintage-inspired Patterns:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry by incorporating new patterns, such as floral prints, into classic shoe designs. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to capitalize on the trend of reimagined footwear silhouettes and offer unique styles to consumers. - **Footwear:** Opportunity for footwear companies to embrace the chunky sneakers trend and create statement-making shoes for customers. - **Design:** Opportunity for designers to experiment with vintage-inspired patterns on shoes and create visually striking footwear designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reworked Heritage Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-studios-x-timberland.md) - [Dynamic Technical Seasonal Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suicoke-4.md) - [Minimal Chunky Running Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adidas-sneaker.md) - [Refined Festive Streetwear Staples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/axel-arigato-4.md) - [Spring-Ready Tonal Trail Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acs-og.md) - [Year-of-the-Horse Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-horse-ss26.md) - [Fashion Collaborative Sneaker Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clot-and-adidas-1.md) - [Collaboration Springtime Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acne-studios-par-frederic-malle.md) - [Spring Technical Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoldwall-5.md)
