As the seasons start to change, and a good jacket starts to become a necessity, you can always count on the maestros at Stone Island to deliver the goods. As part of their recent Grid Camo collection, they dropped this standout piece: the Overhead Ice Jacket. Right away we can see that white-on-black ‘Champagne’ Compass badge on the arm, telling us that we’re in for something special, and this jacket doesn’t disappoint.

Cut in a versatile overhead, half-zip design, the shell is constructed from a tightly-woven brushed cotton fabric, treated with Stone Island’s water-repellent membrane. When the temperature drops, however, is when the magic really happens: when it gets cold enough, a thermo-reactive all-over print displays that iconic Grid Camo design. It’s this kind of fabric wizardry that has earned Stone Island their cult status at the top of the outerwear game, and is sure to turn heads this winter.

On a more practical front, the jacket is fully lined with a soft thermal waffle fabric for exceptional warmth, while that high neck and ribbed cuffs are sure to keep the elements at bay. Storage is handled by two large, angled side pockets that can be secured with either a flap or a zip, along with a concealed snap pocket to the chest.

As usual with the ‘Champagne’ pieces, numbers are very limited, so don’t hesitate if you want to snag this jacket for your collection. The Stone Island Ice Jacket is available from Aphrodite now.
