Questions posed to the panel ranged from the reason behind Stone Island’s popularity with football fans to their favorite periods from its history. Moro, who heads up the brand’s Research and Experimentation department, reflected on his two decades with the company, recalling the first Stone Island piece he’d ever bought (a navy crew neck knit), while Ricciardone shed light on the musical partnership between himself and the brand — throwing in a few anecdotes about the gigs he promoted back in the 90s.
For Doherty and Maher, a designer and a fashion archivist respectively, Stone Island has become a staple in their lives – despite them both being born decades after its inception. Doherty shared details of the brand’s collaboration with his team Soho Warriors, and particularly the Famiglia’s generosity around the Chinatown Cup Tournament in New York, and Maher provided insight into his extensive archive of pieces – dubbing the Ice Jackets his favorite items.
