FORTY PERCENTS AGAINST RIGHTS (FPAR) is a Japanese label founded by Tetsu Nishiyama, the designer behind WTAPS and, earlier, FPAR’s 1990s incarnation. Known for message-driven graphics and pared-back military- and work-derived cuts, the line long operated only through a handful of Tokyo stockists before opening its own online store in 2013. The name itself — a deliberately confrontational slogan — is characteristic of Nishiyama’s text-led approach to clothing.

Driven, as ever, by textile innovations from the Stone Island laboratory, the ninth Stone Island Shadow Project collection is an investigation into modern texture and structure. An intrinsic understanding of technology and performance renders garments that are unfussy and practical. An informed view of contemporary culture and context renders a look and feel that is urbane and progressive. 5719, the autumn/winter '012 collection, defines modernity as an innate flowstate of ease and nuance. Base materials have been selected for their natural warmth and familiarity. Reassuring and subdued, they are then carefully tuned for protection and carefree daily use. Piece dyed fabrics in the collection are precise, rich, and tactile. Garment dyed fabrics achieve signature depths of colour saturation and expression. New to Shadow this season are knitted items and engineered knit details — notably the new Stealth Jacket, a Gore-Tex® Proshell crombie whose hidden pocket array is knit 'in macchina'.

The 6119 Stone Island Shadow Project collection is built around the process of absorption, contamination, and release. Having soaked up the collage of the multi-faceted present, it is a reflection of unguarded curiosity and transformation. Thus, seemingly conflicting elements are brought into harmony; a new synthesis rich with texture, possibility, and vitality. Precision tailoring is melded with the off-kilter silhouettes of sport and subculture. Organic textures are built with artificial fibres, and technical fabrications are achieved through natural means. Patterns are recognised and disrupted. Colours fuse old traces and new impulses. The dynamics of action and reaction as can only be realised by Stone Island.

5519 reaffirms the original Stone Island Shadow Project intent. Focused. Elegant. Effortless. Incomparably modern. A capsule collection that converts common problems into uncommon possibilities. Designed as a high performance technological interface between its wearer and their environment on one hand. Conceived of as a seamless extension of its wearer's identity on the other. The latest results of an ongoing enquiry into the dynamics of form and function from the living laboratory that is Stone Island. Fabrics have been selected with an emphasis on lustre and tactility; aesthetically pleasing yet careful not to overwhelm the senses. Colours are dark and play off of the matte-sheen of the fabrics, bringing the balanced geometry of each style to the fore. The new modular accessories are simple, direct ways to transform styles, increasing the already considerable user-driven versatility of the collection.

The 14th Stone Island Shadow Project collection is a mirage on the horizon; a heat haze of perspective shifting inversion and refraction. Vibrant and gritty, granular and loose, it's the freshness and intensity of youth tempered by process and exposure to the elements. West coast Zephyr inspired colors are turned up to maximum saturation, then slightly muted by treatments both softening and metallic. Materials have an easy, lived-in feel, but retain the underlying edge of technical performance and real use. Loose street and slope born shapes flow with relaxed tailoring and diffused prep looks. Graphics are minimal definitions; outlines and impressions of the underlying framework.

A statement of quiet aggression against the background of chaos and turbulence that is today, the eleventh Stone Island Shadow Project steps in and leans forward. The collection is built on classic menswear archetypes honed to an edge just shy of the subversive. Atemporal and eminently wearable, the 5919 collection is built for those who make moves that turn obstacles into opportunities. Details and designs are informed by equal parts sartorial tradition and subcultural edge. Fabrics are high speed and low drag; unfussy and technical to the degree that they are practical. Colors balance credibility with flashes of energy and high-fidelity saturation. Pattern and graphic infusions complete a package made possible only through the engineering and expertise that is Stone Island.

Stone Island Shadow, the project designed by the creative team Acronym®, Errolson Hugh and Michaela Sachenbacher, sees in the third season its linear progression in both depth and direction. Newly developed fabrics, styles and graphical standards continue the project's original mandate and demonstrate its ongoing relevance through styles whose intrinsic value is a direct result of their sophistication.
Modular Performance Grid, PARSEQ is the organizational framework upon which the idea is built. The name is an acronym for the five categories of the system: PROOF, AUGMENT, RESIST, SKIN and EQUIP.
Stone Island Shadow is primarily a system based upon the idea of clothing as a man's interface with his environment. Proven functional principles from both military and active sportswear allow the individual items in the collection to work both alone and, most effectively, synergistically together. The Grid is independent of seasonal and aesthetic change, so there is functional continuity between all Shadow collections and items regardless of when they were produced. Each item is an extension of its owner's personal system.

The Stone Island Shadow vector continues with the project's fourth seasonal capsule collection. Fueled by new reactions within the project's original conceptual core, fresh manifestations of fabric, style, detail, and interface emerge as the lightest, yet most comprehensive, offering thus far.
This unique trajectory begins, of course, at a unique point of origin — the inimitable constellation of research and development that is STONE ISLAND. Hidden detail and potential action lies at the heart of each and every Stone Island Shadow style.
Enfolding this in a simpler, softer way, a new focus can be brought to bear on both resolution of shape and fidelity of color. The goal is vibrancy and directness; stripping away the superfluous without sacrificing capability, and the lightness that can only be found by moving through one's environment with zero resistance.
Modular Performance Grid, PARSEQ is the organizational framework upon which the idea is built: PROOF, AUGMENT, RESIST, SKIN and EQUIP. All Shadow fabrics work together as part of the grid — breathable, moisture managing, skin-friendly and maintainable — chosen for their balance of performance technology and the aesthetic treatments for which Stone Island has been known since its inception.

The Inspired by kumakey’s “roBa,” the moNa2 is a small wireless split keyboard developed by shakupan and pooh.polo, designed to keep a desk feeling open and unclaimed. Two compact halves sit apart with a quiet gap between them, leaving room for a notebook or tools without forcing a single, monolithic footprint.
The layout is restrained: low, close spacing with a built-in thumb-controlled ball that keeps basic navigation under the hand instead of pushing you toward a mouse. The whole object reads as light hardware rather than a centerpiece, favors packing and redeploying—such as magnets on the underside so the halves can join together for transport.
It runs wire-free and is meant to be adjusted over time rather than treated as a fixed appliance. Typical usage notes describe it lasting roughly a couple of weeks of frequent daily use before needing attention again, with the exact cadence depending on how it’s set up and used.
