Acne Armored Jeans

Acne Jeans has an interesting addition to their Spring/Summer 2010 Lookbook; The Armored Jean. The jeans take obvious inspiration from the days of medieval knights in their shining armor and the effect is actually quite cool. Jeans have polished plates on the thighs, knees and shins while jackets have plates on the shoulders and elbows providing protection to sensitive areas in case some wackjob comes wielding a broadsword down Fifth Ave or if you happen to topple over in your 4 inch heels. Our only question, how do you wash them?
