Frequently asked questions.

What is Acne Studios clothing made of?

Based on our analysis of 387 Acne Studios products, the average garment is 77.6% natural fibre. The most common single fibre is Cotton (in 61% of products). The remaining material is typically synthetic — polyester, polyamide, or acrylic.

Is Acne Studios cotton?

Sometimes — cotton appears in 61% of the 387 Acne Studios products we analyzed, but it's usually blended with synthetics. Only 57.4% of items are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre), so check the composition before assuming a piece is pure cotton.

Is Acne Studios 100% cotton?

Some pieces are. Of the 387 Acne Studios products we analyzed, 175 are 100% cotton (or near-pure, 95%+) — that's 45.2% of the catalog. The rest are blends.

How much polyester does Acne Studios use?

9.8% of Acne Studios products are polyester-heavy, meaning polyester makes up 50% or more of the garment. This is below average for fast fashion retailers.

Is Acne Studios mostly synthetic?

9.8% of Acne Studios products are polyester-heavy (50%+ polyester). Average natural fibre content is 77.6%, so the rest of the catalog is mostly natural-led.

Does Acne Studios use natural fabrics?

57.4% of Acne Studios products are nearly all-natural (95%+ natural fibre). A decent portion of their range avoids synthetic fibres entirely.

Is Acne Studios sustainable in terms of fabric?

Fabric composition is one factor in sustainability. With an average of 77.6% natural fibre, Acne Studios is better than many competitors on this measure. Natural fibres generally biodegrade and shed fewer microplastics than synthetics.

Methodology: We analyzed 387 Acne Studiosproduct pages, extracting the fabric composition listed by the retailer. Products are categorized by name keywords. Natural fibre percentage is the sum of all natural fibres (cotton, linen, silk, wool, viscose, lyocell, etc.) in each product's composition. Data is refreshed monthly.
