I would imagine on their website? Or in flagships in SI crazed countries like England, Italy, S.Korea.

The people who wear stone island here must be quite different than other countries. I really couldn't believe my eyes when i saw it in l'eclauier.

cant imagine football casuals strolling in off the champs elysees ''got this Aitor in a 50? If not i'll batter you! Met my mate 'Stanley'.'' oh just seems strange.
I guess you don't have those sort of people in the US.
But i would have thought France would have, hmm maybe they just have too much taste :)

Every weekend in ny when I watch matches I see at least a dozen people wearing SI. Some of them with visible battle scars. To be honest I haven't seen SI outside of the pub or the rack at c21 when I'm in the states.

I would get the England top he designed if it wouldn't be England. I mean if it would only have the umbro logo and not 3 lions.

From what i read on SI fans forum-they don't like Aitor, and yes they all so "Hey Lad!" and all agressive and tough.

I like SI and CP but in a way i like good clothes made from good materials.

But here in Ukraine SI cost more then CDG or RO, even if you know the prices in here are madness. Some SI jacket costs 2200$ and Faust's Junya boiled woold holy grail in black costs around 1500 or even less. I don't remeber :(. But you get the idea.

And there is no big niche for SI in Ukraine thou.
The prices on anything that was "made in italy" is just overwhelming.
RO's t-shirts costs about 3500 hrivna- 440 $.
RO's jeans - 500 $ and more.


Kinda funny in some very perverted way.

Default sorry fro offtop

^ of course with postUSSR mail it's like playing russian roulette. there is a 30-50% chance that you'll never recive your 2000$ RO leather jacket becouse of the mail, or customs.

So what about DHL, FedEX and others you may ask?
How about that: for customs clearence and taxes they whant around 30-50% of the price of the package.

And that's not all. They can mistakenly lost or destroy your package couse they just can't find your adress in their database.

Oh, and you need to pay some taxes for anything pricier then 200 Euro. Even if you recive it by ordinary mail. From 13% to 40% or 110%, it depends on the customs mariage status, or weather.

So what were you saying about Arpanet ?))

mizzair, pardon the crass language on this one mate, та на кой хуй там жить ваще? звучит ужасающе. сам никогда в том краю света не проживал, but if you ask me, the whole endeavour sounds a bit like playing russian roulette in and of itself.

fucking twilight zone, right there..

The worst part is that they probably were inspirated by "Преступление и наказание" .

So what about your's topman x aitor pants? Could we see your WAYWT in them? Realy interested in how they fit.

Mizzar, I was going to offer to hook you up with SI/CP/DRKSHDW from here for dirt cheap, but with the fucking customs horror story you offered, I guess it won't work. Svalivay iz etogo bolota. The funny thing that Russia seems to have fixed their problems and behaves more or less civilized - at least I haven't had problems sending stuff to Moscow (not sure about the rest of the country).

Thank a lot Faust. I know about your "Faust proxy service", if you mean it. There are ways of infiltrating our borders thou. Package must be only from a private person + некоторые компании все-же доставляют нормально. Потери и "уничтожения" вещей были в основном в 2007-2006 году, но с тех пор ничего большого не заказывал. Заявленная стоимость от 40$ до 190$. Если больше начинаются проблемы. За последний год не было проблем только с доставкой Royal Mail. Но вряд ли получиться из Нью Йорка(если не ошибаюсь сейчас там живешь?) отправить британской почтой. Поговорю со знакомыми стилистами, может действительно за последние полгода что-то поменялось и появились варианты "правильной" доставки. Тогда и буду спрашивать что ты имешь ввиду под "dirt cheap".
And i'm not a big fan of SI or CP.
And Faust, Moscow is not Russia, really.

p.s. Sorry for all non-cyrillic speakers. Such a big amount of non-english text is only becouse my english is not so good to describe the situation without errors.
