Stone Island x New Balance 998 Raso Gommato

For the first time, the partnership between Stone Island and New Balance is launching a MADE in USA model, and not just any model: the iconic 998 is celebrating its comeback, inspired by the legendary Raso Gommato material that Stone Island first presented in 1984. You can find all the information about the hotly anticipated collab here.

What makes this sneaker so special? The upper is made from a special cotton canvas with a rubberized polyurethane coating - exactly the same material that Stone Island uses for its innovative outerwear pieces. Combined with the ABZORB cushioning from the 1993 OG release, the result is a shoe that moves between function, luxury and streetwear.

The bespoke color palette, developed exclusively for this collab, picks up on the tones of the current Stone Island collection and underlines the DNA of both brands: technical, visionary and uncompromisingly stylish.
