The Woodhouse hand painted jacket

Woodhouse Clothing handpicks Stone Island one of a kind hand painted jacket as key piece for AW14

The Handpainted Jacket

Premium Menswear online retailer Woodhouse Clothing is offering something truly unique for AW14: The Stone Island Brown Tortoise Shell Raso Hand Painted Jacket.

Okay, maybe you wouldn't expect to see That dapper Chap sporting such a jacket. It doesn't have a dapper edge or a vintage look but it is a very unique and that's what fashion is all about.

Selected by the Woodhouse buying team as the key piece from the Stone Island AW14 collection, this jacket has been dyed and then faded in selected areas with a corrosive paste. These bleached parts are then hand painted with a tortoise shell camouflage inspired motive. This exceptional manual process makes each piece one of a kind and unrepeatable.

Stone Island is defined by a culture of exploration, experimentation, function and use; the brand’s aim is to establish new boundaries in the garment manufacturing world and with the Raso jacket it does just that.

This is a true statement piece, maybe at home on the back of an indie rock star or fashion conscious movie star. In keeping with the rest of Stone Island’s AW14 collection, the colours used in the jacket are inspired by the organic world. Other components which contribute to the creation of this truly premium piece include the use of satin weave cotton fabric of military origin, inclusion of the finest down to keep you warm in the colder months, a contrasting down-filled detachable inner lining and an iconic detachable compass badge.
