Stone Island Readies Its Latest Selection of Eco-Friendly Nylon Metal Pieces

While many will know Stone Island for its ever-iconic compass badge logo, diehards will recognise the Italian sportswear label for its groundbreaking and unique approach to production. Over the years, we've seen hundreds of technological garments produced by the Osti-born brand, but few have left quite the effect that the Nylon Metal has. For Spring Summer '23, Stone Island's Nylon Metal collection has returned, but this time it has adopted an eco-friendly twist.

The evolution of this fabric now sees the use of ECONYL® regenerated yarn. Recycled with a complex depolymerization process, this yarn offers an eco-conscious approach to technological construction without compromising on both style and function. The same intrinsic characteristics of Nylon Metal are still present, with its distinctive iridescent shine seen across multiple hues.

Included in the latest offerings are overshirts, vests, anoraks and even the famed WATRO-TC Field Jacket - a piece with an array of distinctive outer pockets. Each garment has undergone an elaborate double-dyeing process to ensure maximum quality, resulting in an array of green, beige, pink and navy hues. For those looking to get their hands on these latest Stone Island SS23 Nylon Metal pieces, they are currently available on the brand's website for purchase.
