Stone Island
Founded in 1982 by Massimo Osti, Stone Island emerged from a radical approach to material experimentation, beginning with Tela Stella, a resin-treated military-grade fabric that became the starting point for the brand’s first collection. The iconic Compass badge soon became a symbol of exploration, function and belonging. Since 2008, Carlo Rivetti has guided the brand’s creative vision, continuing to place research and innovation at the centre of its identity. Reflective materials, technical nylons, heat-sensitive fabrics, garment dyeing and advanced treatments define a constantly evolving approach to outerwear, knitwear and sportswear. Stone Island approaches clothing as an ongoing laboratory, where material research, functionality and precise construction come together with a strong sense of community and a distinctive contemporary identity.
