Stone Island

Since its founding in 1982, Stone Island has gained a global cult following for its cutting-edge outerwear collections by blending fashion, luxury, and streetwear. In this updated edition of Rizzoli's bestselling monographs, a chapter celebrating the latest collaborations highlights the ever-expanding universe of the brand. In a world where brands draw from culture, Stone Island has contributed to culture throughout its four-decade existence. Notable fans include Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher, rappers Drake and Travis Scott, and football guru Pep Guardiola. However, it is not the celebrity status that has made Stone Island a cultural cornerstone; it is the passionate everyday fans of the brand who have always appreciated the blend of performance and durability. At the heart of Stone Island's success is an unwavering pursuit of excellence in design and a relentless spirit of experimentation regarding fabric treatments and dyeing techniques. This product-oriented approach has secured the brand's unique position outside the hierarchy of fashion. This definitive monograph tells the story of Stone Island, uniting its history and ethos in a comprehensive source. Featuring previously unpublished images and three significant texts that capture the brand's history, it will delight both loyal fans of the brand and those new to the world of Stone Island.
