Acne Studios Agate Tab

[indiaink]

I've fallen in love with this Acne Studios Agate Tab clutch/wallet. I am going to be purchasing this in raspberry from Acne Studios today at some point. I love how the wrist strap can be tucked in, and I love the clean look of this piece. CS with Acne has assured me my iPhone will fit inside (that's how she carries hers!). The only thing that would be better if it had a zipper from either side, you know, the 'meet in the middle' kind of thing...

Is anybody here familiar with Acne Studios (out of Stockholm) and their leather products? If so, what's your opinion of them? Barney's and Opening Ceremony carry their shoes and clothing, FWIW. I'm just curious. I must admit that my 'love' is helped along by Acne's aesthetic and the fact that "Acne", in this case, stands for 'Ambition to create novel expressions'.

What do you all think? Third pic is for size reference; all photos copyright Acne Studios.

It's a lovely and original clutch. I like the wrist strap and the inside of the clutch.
I particular love the colour in the third picture.
It seems to be a very good quality product.
Unfortunately, all I know about the brand is their wonderful jeans.
I didn't even know they were making leather purses.

Now you've got me thinking of the brown - it is pretty, as well - and looking at the black they have,it is very nicely saturated. Now I'm torn between the three! What do you think?

The pink is pretty but I like the brown. I think the black zipper really makes it pop.

This sort of brown is a classic in Scandinavian purses.
I used to have a Swedish bag in that colour and it got a wonderful patina year after year....

^I went ahead and ordered the raspberry pink - that was the color that made my heart sing, so I stuck with my original attraction. I am sure, as it ages, it will darken to a lovely burgundy rose color ...

Very good choice too!
Congrats!

Hi there!
Do you still carry/own this wallet? Just searched tpf and this thread. I just recently purchased a preloved Acne Studios wallet from Tradesy and was wondering how wallet wears.
