its what chavs would wear once they came into a bit of money. That being said I really like it.

"An iconic piece of Paul Harvey design, the Stone Island, Stainless Steel Parka. Woven steel bonded to the jacket, the outer shell cracks to make each piece highly unique and individual. Very rare and very few still in circulation due to the fact most were sent back to Italy."

I saw a guy with a SI gray hoodie once, with that obnoxious logo thingy on it sleeve
It looked ridculous

"A/W 1999 Stone Island Raso with NOC1 hood. Designed by Paul Harvey. Hood is based on a vintage gas mask. The Jacket is a standard A/W Raso Gommato."

"Urban Protection Metropolis. Iconic jacket from 2000, the key peice in the range. a true classic. made of dynafil, featuring the iconic full face smog mask."

this is my grail

>>9805510
that looks BOSS AS FUCK. how much they run for?

Special painting effect is obtained by employing the original technique used for the first camouflage peices at the beginning of the 20th century. Each on is hand-painted and is completely unique.

I'm English, I attend football matches regularly, and I desperately want some Shadow Project gear because it looks awesome. Am I a terrible person?

Here's a cool video about the Brand OP

Oh, and my dad has got loads of early 90s Stone Island pieces that are probably worth loads (this was before even the majority of football fans were picking it up) and not one fits me.

>>9805510
Seriously cool

Why do football fans wear Stone Island?

"CP Company AW07 Dynafil Field mille ART: 47184260
Autumn winter 2007. Dynafil construction mille miglia."

"Stone Island Liquid Reflective. ART: 531542944
The fabric of the liquid reflective bomber jacket is coated with thousands of glass microspheres. The jacket is then spray painted by hand on a mannequin and placed in a oven to dry. The handmade aspect of this process makes each garment unique and unrepeatable.

"Stone Island 4 Pocket Tyvek. ART: 50154968
Limited edition lightweight jacket. 4 pocket technical tyvek. Ink colour."

>>9805577
It's high end stuff, so its a status symbol. It also helps that Stone Island's pieces usually incorporate tech to keep the wearer warm/dry etc, which is handy when you're on an away day up North and it's freezing cold and pissing with rain.

Any advice on where to cop SI on a reasonable budget? Obviously people on England know the brand so it's hard to pick up cheap on eBay here.

"Stone Island Light Jacket
Spring Summer 2002/2003, white jacket with fibre optic mesh inserts that illuminate with a blue light. Designed to celebrate 20 years of Stone Island."

"1998 Stone Island summer jacket"

"Left Hand Massimo Osti

"AW99 Pure Metal Shell"

>>9805577
And to expand, much like most of the brands associated with football 'casuals' - the first people to wear it probably would have stolen it while following their team in the European cup.

"Stone Island Yachting"

OP, do you have any pictures of their liquid reflective stuff?

>>9805520

Most likely fake.

I'd really like a really nice Stone Island jacket but the really nice ones are about £700 in a sale.

Thanks for the thread, OP. I wish more brands did exotic fabric treatment stuff like the Osti brands.

Anyone know newer brands, probably influenced by them, that do stuff like this?

>>9805476
All i want for now

>>9805969
I second this, Stone Island their clothes are so insanely expensive.

We should really start doing a football casuals thread, some stuff is really nice

>>9807759
I'm at work at the moment but I think I might make one when I'm home.

>>9805578
every tk maxx in london has this jacket right now in tan

>>9807776
Serious? How much is it going for?

>>9807781
160 pounds or so, its cp company

>>9807786
That's pretty good, might try and grab one.

nice thread OP, i've been a fan of osti and stone island for awhile, i've got a few shirts from SI and they're fantastic. the best of the outerwear, like the archival pieces you're posting, is unfortunately hard to find.

they have really nice sweaters as well.

did you get these pieces and their description from some online resource? do you have a link?

in london, "stoneys" are considered bengali chav tier mates

>>9807802

>>9807806
in england its also considered OK for pakistani muslim men to groom and rape underage girls with the help of police and local government, so it doesnt really matter what that cuck island of yours thinks.

>>9807806
Fake stone island gear maybe. Just like fake Burberry.

>>9807813
dont be mad just because you have chav tier taste mate

lol chav general

>>9807829
if you can't see that their outerwear is GOAT ur blind

>>9807879
thats not my issue, they look great

problem is they are pakicore

>>9807886
so you're not wearing particular clothes because of their connotations? okay, besides, anywhere but england it's not considered chav-core

>>9805476
White Mountaineering is the superior outerwear brand
Thus the lack of Stone Island discussion

>>9807886
>pakicore

No.

lel

great thread

>>9807958
No it won't

>>9805785
>>9805693
They might be, but I doubt it since none of those designs looks like what i'd imagine is usually replicated. Honestly I think they're real, but old as was said in the description.

>>9805476
Great thread.

>>9808083

If you were selling legit Stone Island you'd include a picture of the 'art number' as a sign of authenticity.

>>9808369
>>9808339
stop shitting up the thread

>>9808369

OP here, I've had luck scoping out ebay auctions - key things to look for to avoid fakes are the ART # which tells you the year, season, and garment + country of origin. Can ID them also by the buttons & patches.

I've also grabbed items from etsy, thrift stores/consignment shops. Sometimes auctions on ebay.co.uk - much more popular/well known there but at times it's a lot of volume so you can snipe auctions well. UK outlet stores.

from the USA so there is no chav/casual connotation but massimo osti is without a doubt my favorite designer, just from an objective standpoint the guy pioneered so many dyeing methods & fabrics, didn't engage in runway shows and was constantly wanting to go farther and farther with the tech

"Vintage Israeli army parka with photocopies of pockets and zips attached to visualise different design possibilities. Massimo Osti archive"

"Massimo Osti, studio in the via Zanardi, Bologna, January 2002"

"In an old polaroid parkas Raso Ray coverlack metal are waiting to be sold"

" Left Hand Thermojoint Field Jacket"

It's cool but all of the cuts look frumpy as hell.

>>9807904
don't be mad when you see a curryhead wear the same brand as your "cool" jacket lmao

>>9808806
mmmmmmm

>>9807926

>implying you have it in you, you soft southern poofta

>>9808864
You probably feel that way because the thread is almost entirely pictures of the clothing alone - not being modeled size xs-s on a gaunt asian manbaby-hybrid like most brands seem to do - like that industrial approach to stone island as a brand and how osti never did runway shows, wanted to simply present his garments without any pretense of who was wearing them

>>9806136
not really in the same vein but i feel like buzz rickson's is similar in that they go to ridiculous extents in terms of creating custom fabrics and hardware for their clothes, but they do it in order to make faithful reproductions of vintage pieces. everything is done in japan to a very high standard, and when you buy and wear a piece it's always nice to know that the fabric it's made of was designed and created with that exact garment in mind.

>>9810380
Not really familiar with buzz rickson but a cursory glance looks like they are very well made. milsurp threads on /k/ might be of interest, I love the cheap prices I can find for surplus clothing - considering how well made a lot of it is. experimenting with dyeing techniques and modifying jackets for a better fit, really wanting to get better at sewing/pattern making and eventually reverse engineering a lot of parkas I really enjoy but with a new lightweight membrane like taffeta nylon - would love to sell clothes in this vein but feel like the market is really over-saturated with generic streetwear and the aesthetic I like isn't really in any demand

>>9809297
>curryhead

Wouldn't know what that feels like since my country isn't being overwhelmed by muslims, have fun europoor

>>9810742
stone island is european

>>9810807
yeah I know just giving you shit man. really though I sympathize hopefully Israel will just mutually nuke the whole area.
as an american though please know there is no pakicore/curryhead connotation so it's a pretty moot point in a thread about stone island as a brand. at least not in my eyes but hey I haven't had to interact with a bunch of terrible faggots wearing any of it, if so it probably would change my perception

>implying my stone island gear isn't already stained with the blood of dirty northern bastards

>>9805524
A lot. Like a lot a lot. If you could even find one.

>>9811260
you're not making any sense but please go away and find some culture not based on us
kthxbai :)

>>9812015
Fail to see how stone island garments are a culture that is based on you as some fuckwit europeon - hottip, there is no correlation at all they are indicative of massimo osti's design, innovative fabrics & military design.

if anything all of osti's designs for the most part have a strong foundation in US military parkas and design. You have no culture, just muslims overrunning your country while the EU goes belly up. Watch videos of the london riots again cause that is the only culture you're bringing to the table bud

>>9805715
I've been trying to find out the product name for this particular Stone Island jacket for so long
