This new collaboration between Head Porter and Stone Island may seem like a mundane recoloring of the Japanese bag-maker’s classic designs, but there is much more to talk about that you might not see at first glance. One of the most striking features of these bags is the special reflective construction features on each piece. Using microscopic spheres of glass, Stone Island has created a channel for light to hit and reflect off the material of the bags. A special coating fabric keeps the tiny sphere in place, allowing for durability and quality to go hand-in-hand to maintain the collection for years. With longterm wear, the spheres in the bag’s fabric gradual become less reflective-at varying times-allowing each piece its own unique reflectiveness and overall look. The collection ranges from $261 USD – $697 USD and can be purchased at HAVENSHOP.ca
