Stone Island x Oki-ni

OKI-NI have long been playing Lennon to other designers’ McCartney, so it was with great anticipation I rushed to view OKI-NI’s website when I heard there was a Stone Island collaboration. Unfortunately this was more Candy Flip than Fab Four. Ok, so there’s a box with it, and it’s limited to 100 pieces, but that’s it. A wasted chance from two companies who we know can do much better..?

Agree with you 100% about this being a pretty wasted effort. At least the 4T22 which this was based off of had a unique fabric. Probably should have limited it to 10 cause thats about all they’ll sell.
Agree, even with 20% discount voucher from Beak Street so could have had it for £480 I still wasn’t tempted for the posh box and coat hanger!!! Two visionary companies and thats all they could come up with - what the fcuk!!!!!!!
“wasted chance” is probably the best way to describe this project, infact there is nothing special in this piece while you would have expected it to taste a bit SI and bit Oki-ni at the same time…
tried it on in beak street it was alright; my kind of jacket. sadly it didnt fit me else i may have bought it. the buttons are huge on it and hard to put in, seems they’re really just for decoration as theyre not very practical. the combination of raso and inner makes the jacket very thick and padded definitely needs to be broken in before it’s very comfortable.
how much does this cost?
If you have to ask you cant afford it
