Stone Island

I have been a huge fan of stone island clothing for many years, I find the clothing fantastic for both men and women, there is a huge range to choose from and they are all good quality and wash really well, although they are on the very expensive side. Stone Island had become one of the markets finest Italian manufacturers in the clothing industry, it is also part of the C.P company clothing range, although these are partnered the ranges are marketed at two different markets. What make stone island unique is that every item of clothing has its own serial number printed on the label, and they add the logo very visibly to all the clothing they ...  Read the complete review

A History Of Stone Island By Marc B What can you say about what is the number one label on the terraces? Easy to spot, hard wearing, and most importantly it looks the dogs. I’ll always remember the England match in Dublin back in 94, watching the lads throwing seats like they were frisbees, with the infamous Stone Island compass (some call it the patch, but the people at Stone Island themselves call it the compass) on the arm. I though just what any one thinks the first time they see it - it has a military look about it, and that night in Dublin it looked just like an army going to work. The brand was first conceived in the late ...  Read the complete review

There's something about it. I remember as a young wide eyed 18 year old urchin many years ago, just starting to earn a decent wage, I'd saved up for weeks for this and finally I had the cash. Went into Flannels in Manchester and parted with £120 for a jumper. The buzz was tremendous and yes I still have got it and many more. It's a pure footie casual thing, yeah I've seen knobbly student-types wearing the label but if you understand this first paragraph you'll know exactly what I am going on about here. It's fair to say that 90% of the people buying and wearing Stone Island gear are footie lads. Some people might not have a clue - In a recent ...  Read the complete review

Before the average hard working casual was forking out 20 notes for Pepe jeans in 1986, there was very little other than a football strip to let other people know what you liked, if they caught a glimpse of the Pepe "keyring", they knew, "if they were savvy", you were a casual, and fought rival teams supporters, sometimes non-combatants would take a hiding. This is what Stone Island designer Massimo Osti had in mind before making this landmark label, he wanted people to know who was who, almost like wearing army stripes, Stone Island is 90% worn by hard working, mortgage paying riot merchants, I'm proud to be one of them, I've never gave ...  Read the complete review

I remember buying two Stone Island Jumpers from the Stone Island Shop in Soho about 7 years ago. One of the jumpers I paid £250 for and the other cost me £490. I must say that I've never been so let down by clothes in all my life. I've paid for expensive things before but theyve been good quality. I cannot say the same thing about Stone Island clothes. The more expensive of the two jumpers I wore three times before it had a massive hole in it. Im someone that takes care of my clothes as well. You wouldn't expect that sort of thing from a cheap brand. The other jumper I wore about 20 times and then most of the colour had faded, the material had ...  Read the complete review
