What's /fa/ thoughts on stone island? Bought my first sweater the other day and i love it but i can't help but think people associate it with football hoolies and don't see it as an innovative company that design great garments.

The britfags hate it because of it's extremely negative connotations
But amerifags virtually know nothing about hooligan brands (or English brands, beyond doc marten and Fred Perry, for that matter)
So basically it just depends on where you live

Their quality, as far as I've seen, is absolute shit. The thinnest fucking material I've ever seen in my life. I'm not even joking. If any of you live in L.A. go to the grove and check out unionmade. They stock some of their stuff there. It's absolute shit. Made me fucking angry, tbh.

Just the jackets, like in the OP pic. The outers. They didn't have any sweaters, so I can't vouch for everything. I'm out of town right now for the fourth, but I'll try to get down to the grove soon and take some pics for proof.

In Europe stone island is associated with football hooliganism and violence, so people have some preconceptions about you if you wear it and meet a stranger for the first time.

Traditionally worn by football hooligans and general dickheads, goes well with their Air Max 95's.

Wearing it just screams you're a chav who's raring for his next EDL march.

i think that's the case for a lot of the money-maker items, things like denims and cheaper jackets. for the good stuff you really have to go for white badge, ghostpiece or shadow project.

Some of their fits and materials can be really cool.

They have some really crazy jacket fabrics.

But most important thing:

DO NOT WEAR THE PATCH.

This one time I was on the bus and these chavs at the back were shouting and laughing about this time one of them called their mum a cunt and then walked out. The continued to re-tell the most offensive things they had done to their mothers, girlfriends, random girls, guys in the street and I'm pretty sure one of them attacked a pregnant woman or something....ANYWAY after half an hour of this the leader digressed how he planned to spend £400 on a Stone Island tracksuit.
