The Acne Studios Camero Suede Backpack is a luxury unisex backpack made in Italy, featuring a suede and calf-leather exterior, silver-tone hardware, and both zippered front pockets and a zippered main compartment. It is intended for everyday carry, such as commuting or travel, with adjustable straps, a top handle, and dimensions of 15" high x 11.75" long x 4.75" deep. While the exterior uses quality calf leather, the lining is 50% polyester and 50% polyurethane; Reddit reviews note this synthetic lining may be a drawback given the price, though the bag is praised for its soft leather and practicality.

Product Insights

The Acne Studios Camero Suede Backpack offers a minimalist design without overt logos, echoing the brand's denim origins with a removable key charm paying homage to its 1996 launch. Made in Italy under strict environmental standards, its calf suede and leather shell develop patina and biodegrade, while metal zippers and hardware enable component repair, supporting multi-year use. Buyers report a compulsive urge to touch the suede and leather, and it fits a MacBook Pro with manageable weight. However, the nylon lining may degrade over time, suede requires careful maintenance (brush dirt and apply water-repellent spray), and strap grommets can catch long hair or peel on some units. The backpack's stealth aesthetic and repairability offset these tradeoffs, offering an item that improves with age.

Reddit Insights

Reddit users are enamored with the Acne Studios Camero bag's buttery leather and effortless design, but many are frustrated by the use of synthetic PU lining at this luxury price point, calling it a dealbreaker.

mixed sentiment85% match

The bag garners strong positive reactions for its aesthetic and leather quality, but negative sentiment is driven by the synthetic lining issue, with some also reporting quality concerns with the strap.

Watch Out For

highSynthetic lining may degrade and peel over time, which many consider unacceptable for the price.
lowStrap grommets can catch and break long hair.
mediumSome units may arrive with peeling or tearing straps.
lowThe bag can feel heavy when packed with a laptop and daily items.

Compared To

vs Lemaire bags

Lemaire bags are equally aesthetic but heavier despite smaller size.

vs Loewe Puzzle Tote

Similar weight burden when carrying a laptop, so the Camero's weight is manageable for those accustomed to heavy bags.

Source Threads

  • Favorable comparison to Lemaire and Loewe, manages laptop weight

    I told myself I would just go and try it and end up buying it… I tried two Lemaire bags before this and while they are equally aesthetic, they are much heavier than this despite being smaller! Even when I put my MacBook Pro in it, the weight is still bearable for me! That being said, I’m used to carrying my laptop in an XL Loewe puzzle tote.

  • Surprisingly soft PU lining and overall perfection

    I tried to stop loving it when I found out about the pu lining but my spouse correctly realized I was still fixated and got me one for Christmas. The lining is so soft and realistic that I had to double-check to be sure it wasn't lambskin. Durability has been fine and honestly have come to appreciate that spills (and general filth) aren't going to permeate the leather. Sorry to report she's otherwise kind of perfect. Not too heavy, details are flawless.

  • Clarification that lining is synthetic leather, not cheap plastic

    It's not plastic like you might think; it's actually synthetic leather. This particular model is from the runway, so I'm not sure about the composition. At first, I thought it was lambskin leather. It has a smooth texture, like the lining of some leather boots.

  • Enduring love for the leather, zippers, and charm potential

    Be prepared, the obsession has no end and the bags looks cute with a Labubu. I bought the Acne Camero Party bag a couple of months ago and every time I take that bag out (at least a couple of days a week) I can't stop touching the leather. The leather will get better with age. And I'm still so in love with all the zippers (and how many opportunities I have with this bag to use bag charms). It's the most expensive bag I own (and probably one of the few that I paid full price for) but so worth it.

  • Disappointment over synthetic lining at high cost

    My only grip about this bag is the sythentic lining - The site does disclose this: but for $3k (CAD) this is disappointing. Still love my bag. # Product information * Shell: 100% Calf leather, Lining: 50% Polyester, 50% Polyurethane

  • The bag's addictive, under-the-radar appeal

    The bag that’s totally not on your radar, till it is…and then you can think of nothing else 🩵
