Swedish fashion brand Acne Studios prepares for the Spring/Summer 2020 season with the latest footwear drop in the form of the Bolzter sneaker model. The signature silhouette arrives once again in three tonal options that ready for the warmer seasons. The upper is rooted in soft suede materials and sits on top of a chunky sole unit with a low cut structure overall.
The colorways include the options of either black, blue, or off-white. The off-white colorway is detailed with panels of ivory, beige, and green with khaki lace cuffs. The blue option is detailed with gray, navy blue, and teal accents. The black colorway is then featured with dark gray panels and pebbled gray details -- all of these sit on top of a tread outsole for hiking purposes as well as branding accents.
