To the top of innovative wear

This year, the brand "STONE ISLAND" originating in Italy, celebrating its 40th anniversary anniversary. Since its founding, he has continued research and development of tech materials and functions, pursuing innovative collections.

It is said that the staining formulation has reached more than 60,000. State-of-the-art technology wear is also highly regarded in the street scene, and KEIJU says, "I like it all the time honestly and cool." I wear it both on stage and in private, "I love STONE ISLAND.

With a functional toughness
Luxurious elegance

In this season's scene, KEIJU seems to be worried about "monochrome", and on this day, MIX and styling with private clothes. The blouson worn is made of durable gabadine, developed for workwear, and the fabric is water-repellent. It is made of polyester vertical threads made from recycled PET bottles and cotton horizontal threads, and is characterized by toughness that is hard to break and resistant to friction and frequent washing. Bottoms choose cargo pants made of Pima cotton Supima®, which is called the finest cotton. "Almost every day, I just meet someone from KANDY just eating and talking. Because of this time, I often did shopping alone, but during this time I enjoyed going to see clothes with the members for the first time in a long time. Now, when I go with you, "Buy!" (Laughs) I told you that this nostalgic feeling was like the old days and it was very nice." "KANDYTOWN", to which KEIJU belongs, celebrated its 10th anniversary this year.

Military wear
Embodying innovation

STONE ISLAND has released a limited camouflage collection for each season, but this season we are developing "REEF CAMO". In addition, wear made of ballet-colored nylon metal fabric, which is characterized by a unique glossiness that represents the brand, has evolved sustainably using recycled thread ECONYL®. “STONE ISLAND has the impression that “color” and “expression” are beautiful. It is said that you usually feel better just by going into a shop for shopping, or it is arranged in order of color like a pallet, and I like that space itself."

Created by ultimate pursuit and aesthetics
STONE ISLAND's unique “color”

Through the complex dyeing process, the ultimate pursuit of "color" and aesthetics wear the wear, such as giving different shades, depths, and coloring to the wear parts. KEIJU himself asked what kind of color he was attracted to. "When I look back on photos and videos, I often wear orange and light blue clothes and shoes unconsciously, and I think the two colors look beautiful. Light blue is particularly good. Today, I was wearing STONE ISLAND's white bottoms, but my favorite color is white. When I wear it, I feel very fresh and comfortable. It is light blue that feels similar to that in myself. The color that represents you! It's very difficult (laughs) I feel like there's no color, but do you keep it dark blue (laughs)?"
