Stone Island kicks off 2025 with a nod to transformation and progress, unveiling a capsule collection inspired by the Year of the Snake. Embodying the serpentine spirit of renewal, the collection showcases a striking outerwear range that fuses tradition, innovation, and signature craftsmanship.
At the heart of the capsule lies a distinctive design element — wavy quilting with bold red stitching sinuously tracing the front and back of jackets. The collection features a range of outerwear, trousers, fleecewear, T-shirts, and accessories. In a further twist, detachable monochrome sleeves and hoods bring adaptability to the fore, reflecting the snake’s symbolism of shedding the old and embracing the new. Crafted from the brand’s iconic Nylon Metal, the collection is garment-dyed and available in metallic silver and classic black, embodying Stone Island’s ongoing exploration of technical fabrics with a futuristic sheen.
Speaking of which, Stone Island extends its aesthetic prowess to accessories and lighter garments, each adorned with red Compass embroidery — a signature flourish that adds artisanal depth to the capsule’s monochromatic palette. Among the highlights, the triangular one-shoulder backpack gets a revamp while the embroidered baseball caps tie the looks together. The collection is presented in bespoke red packaging with a silver metallic logo, adding a refined celebratory touch.
With its fusion of heritage innovation and zodiac-inspired design, this collection once again proves that Stone Island’s dedication to craftsmanship and experimentation is anything but skin deep.

After an exclusive release in China via WeChat on December 23, 2024, the Year of the Snake ‘025 capsule lands globally at select Stone Island stores and online at stoneisland.com.
