hi there folks,

Just wondering what people perceptions were of Stone Island. Total ned wear or a serious fashion brand unfairly sterotyped?

I personally think some of their stuff is brilliant but I can't think of a label with as much baggage as Stone Island which is a shame.

Anyone got any opinions?

I know what you mean but i still like it.I have these plimsoles but I do seem to only wear them when I go to watch The Mighty Swans and they are not white anymore from all the rest of the Jack Army standing on them and that.

I think the jackets and outwear are superb. If you want similar quality / use of technical fabrics what about CP Company? Similar to SI without 'the baggage'.

yeah I've got lots of stuff by them already just wanted to know what you guys thought.

I leave the tag on having gone through a phase of removing it. Less plain that way.
