Stone Island s/s09 technical tyvec bonded jacket art number 50154968 V1099 

A casual look @..................

Massimo Osti had a dream, and that dream was to reinvent clothing manufacture and the way we view clothing as a whole, the technical tyvec bonded lightweight jacket does that and more taking more than a bit of inspiration from the 1990's collections, Stone Island have produced this summer’s must have and must get by all means! the technical tyvec goes beyond what stone island have produced in recent times and rips up the blueprints they were using to start afresh with new materials and new design features but also giving a big nod to past creations in its structure, design and functionality the tyvec takes a classic multi pocket design and puts a new spin on it with the technical detailing, pockets are multi-point fastening, the bonded tyvec material is exclusive to stone island, basically in layman’s terms, there is a transparent layer of mesh bonded to the outer nylon to increase wind resistance and durability, this gives the jacket a particular sheen in some lighting conditions but also a strength in something so lightweight, full lampo zips adorn the piece most welcome return in my eyes, half seam arms are a nod to older collections in days gone by... the hood is a concealed one kept in place by yet more lampo hardware and sits snug inside its collar, mesh lined for breathability and featuring the white compass on a black pocket just adds to the superb detailing on what will become a future collector’s item-mark my words, buy this now or regret it in time to come topping the jacket off is the special edition compass patch in white/bronze within the black background...white/bronze I hear you say, look closely at any white compass patch and in certain light there is a bronze tinge to the star points mid length in design and perfect proportions too, Stone Island seem to have got their act together slowly for the bigger sizing, the xxxl of this measures a whopping 27 inch from armpit to armpit unstretched, unheard of in recent collections! I hope you enjoyed the second of my reviews on this seasons collection, stick around, there’s more to come......
