Is there anyone on here who owns anything from stone island? If so what piece? Is it that good of a quality? I don't have a lot of money and want to buy something like a sweater or mid layer jacket or anything that's not too expensive.

If you're going to spend money on stone island, get something like a cool knit or garment-dyed jacket, something that's more than a sweatshirt with a logo patch. Some of the textures and colours are sensational in person, so shop in person if you can

what are some good knits do you think?
I don't live in the US far away from any stoney stores but will be visiting around Cologne soon. What shops would you recommend?

How do I wear Stone Island without looking like a scummy benefit scrounging chav?

Depends on what piece you have. If you don't care how you look that much and just don't want to look like a chav then wear it with gucci-esque bright "in your face" clothing. Although then you might look like a fag.

If you say have a jumper and walk around in it whilst having a nice haircut, face and no other expensive labeled clothing brands or sports brands you might also be able to pull it off.

Was thinking of lowballing on a basic Stoney sweater, then doing custom designs through bleach and/or dyes. Would probably research it for quite a bit. Just don’t be one of those fags that awkwardly bends your arm to show off the patch in pics or intentionally rotates your body.

its all kinda overpriced, try to buy in person if possible since some stoney stuff is just shit when u hold it in ur hands
the thicker knit stuff is usually really nice, like the 2 layer stuff from this s/s made from 2 different color yarns (pic related), the normal turtlenecks also look neat (although more basic)
membrana, nylon metal, and lucid jackets are also usually really good, but more expensive
cargos and pants are usually good, jeans ive never seen/tried, joggers are comfy but might look really shit depending on ur height
i personally dont like the micro reps stuff, feels kinda cheap
stay away from basic fleece stuff, the really thin knits (feel horrible) and all t-shirts (except maybe on a -70% sale)
oh and also dont buy sisp, its all A-line i.e. cut for fat weak pear shaped nu-males
and sale season is about to start (or has already started in some stores) on stoney shit, so watch out for discounts

btw just got this membrana bomber last week
the quality is good (though i still think it was overpriced) and the material looks and feels very "premium"
its pretty thin, breathable/water resistant fabric, feels a bit like gore-tex, very swishy
i really liked that it had a stowable hood in the collar, though it is (like most stone island) cut in a more normie way, i.e. with the bombers they're a bit longer instead of super cropped (which i think would be a bit more fashion-y)

as a final note, if you are looking for value for money stoney is not your brand
and if you end up copping something, size up one size on tops/outerwear, pants fit tts (if its listed as s/m/l u can look up the waist size range on the si website)

Get the tshirts and basic sweats on deep discount. The cable knits from fw17 are fucking amazing.

It got some really good stuff but it's overpriced and it will probably get you associated with chavs/hooligans. Also you can't remove the patch without looking like an idiot.

I took off the label and buttons so I don't look like a faggot on my long sleeve shirt. quality is real nice.

i took it to a tailor because i wanted some other stuff done to it and asked if they could also remove them with minimal damage because I knew I'd fuck it up if I tried to do it myself.

the fleece stuff isnt shit, its actually quite nice quality wise (i meant that the thin knits feel like garbage)
i just think looks too much like the really gay r/streetwear type of aesthetic
but if youre fine with spending 200+usd on a basic fleece sweater then go for it, youll probably look fine as long as long as you dont wear it with yeezies and do the retarded arm bend to flex the badge
