Stone Island has released their Spring/Summer '08 line for men, and within it is something for everyone. The apparel and accessories are modern enough to be fashion forward but classic enough that they won't go out of style any time soon, which is good because what they offer isn't cheap.However, unlike some companies, you do appear to get what you pay for when you shop Stone Island. According to the website:
...the aim of Stone Island has been to design innovative top line collections in the sportswear panorama, with a high concern in function and use of the garments.
The story behind Stone Island is an interesting one, emerging entirely by chance, "following a dye test on a typically industrial fabric, the cloth used for truck tarpaulins. The extreme originality of its design has been a hallmark of these unique garments at the forefront of innovative clothing.
"Stone Island has undertaken innovative research into fibers and textiles never previously used in the clothing industry. In a manufacturing world still dominated by processes and materials linked to tradition, this brand pushes the frontier of research further forward in each new collection. This has resulted in products that are absolutely unique in terms of the materials used and procedures adopted."
See, you get what you pay for, and what you're paying for is unique, quality fashion. We've spent more money on less.
