02 PRODUCT DETAILS
0100002 Split Leather_Stone Island Ghost, a stand collar jacket made from leather obtained through the splitting, or thickness reduction, of the hide. The material has a textured and durable surface, allowing for raw-cut finishes.
Ghost pieces, derived from the concept of camouflage, are totally monochromatic. Even the Stone Island badge is created in a special monocolour version to blend in with the garment.
