Stone Island
A culture of research, experimentation and function are the matrices that define Stone Island The sportswear brand was established in 1982, designed to become a symbol of extreme research on fibres and textiles, applied to innovative style and design. Season after season, Stone Island has found its own language with the aim of establishing new boundaries in the world of garment making. The study of uniforms and work wear, its evolution according to new requirements of use, has become the brand’s POV for defining projects in which the clothing’s function is never just aesthetic. An ongoing investigation, thorough and without frontiers, on the processing and ennobling of fibres and textiles, leading to discover materials and production techniques never used before in the clothing industry.
Stone Island’s strength is also based on the unique ability to intervene on the finished item, through the continuous tests on dyeing and treatments carried out in the Sportswear Company’s laboratory of colour. A department able to combine advanced technology, experience and human capacity and that has developed more than 60,000 different recipes of dyes throughout the years. All the accumulated knowledge and experience, an inalienable heritage, on which great part of Stone Island’s know-how is based, is kept in the historical archive that collects the trial tests, and the recipes for textile dyeing and handling that have been developed by all those people who have worked on this project with passion.
