Making a statement with a printed distressed look
These Acne Studios jeans carry an allover high-contrast photocopy-style print that alternates dark black denim with bleached light-gray and white photographic patches. The distressed look is printed rather than real, including a tear-like print on the right thigh and creased details at the knees and lower legs, for a collage-like trompe-l'oeil effect on a straight-leg, five-pocket pair with a button fly.[2,3]
A statement jean with a trompe-l'oeil photocopy print
Acne Studios' straight-leg jean is made for standing out: a high-contrast grayscale print mimics a photocopy of the jeans themselves, reproducing the waistband, belt loops, pocket outlines, seams and distressing as part of the pattern. Real details include a button fly, yellow contrast stitching and a waistband that sits at the natural waist. Belt loops are mainly suggested by the print, though a few real loops may be present at the top edge.[2,3,4]
Full-length styling over ankle boots
A full-length jean styled to fall slightly over the tops of ankle boots, as shown on the model. The straight-leg cut runs the length of the leg to the hem, so the print and stitch line carry all the way down. A good pick when you want a clean, uninterrupted line over your boots.[3]
A statement jean with a printed trompe-l'oeil look
Acne Studios' Photocopy Trompe-L'oeil Jean is a straight-leg denim piece finished with a high-contrast grayscale photocopy-style print, including printed details on the waistband and belt loops. It keeps classic jean elements — a button fly, five pockets, and yellow contrast stitching — alongside printed distress and faux rips across the legs, making it a pick for casual outfits where the graphic look is the point.[2,3]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Photocopy Trompe-L'oeil Jean: Choose this for a bold statement with a high-contrast, all-over photocopy-style print, which simulates ripped and worn denim across a straight leg. Constructed from 100% cotton denim and featuring a button fly and five-pocket design, this Acne Studios jean is accented with yellow contrast stitching and is made in Italy.[1,3] | Coated Effect Trompe-L'oeil Pant: Choose this for a novel play on style, blending the classic jean look with a banker-striped dress pant design in a half-coated trompe-l'oeil effect. This wide-leg trouser is crafted from a luxurious, pure cotton structured fabric and features a high-waisted fit.[5,6,7] | 1979 Slim-Fit Distressed Jean: Choose this if you want a casual, deliberately distressed jean in faded mid-blue with a slim leg and mid waist. It is cut from 100% cotton denim with a five-pocket design, zip fly, and an inseam of 31.5 inches (80 cm), made in Italy with an Acne Studios emblem at the back waist. Note the finish includes small distressed holes with frayed edges on the thighs and knees, so it suits those comfortable with visible wear details.[8,9,10,11] |
