Stone Island is an Italian premium men's apparel brand


Stone Island is an Italian premium men's apparel brand from Ravarino famous for its compass patch that buttons on the upper sleeve of the left arm.

Massimo Osti (b. 1944; † 2005) started his first label C.P. Company in 1974. Stone Island was set as a secondary line or diffusion collection of his main tag. The brand specialized in surface treatment of fabrics and dyeing techniques. The business was bought by GFT in 1983, Osti abandoned in 1994, it is now run by Carlo Rivetti.

Originally the spots were green edged, badges from 2000 onwards became black edged. There are a run of rarer 'white badges' which were originally made on certain jackets to celebrate the millennium. The white badge is currently evident on coats which use materials that Stone Island develops themselves in-house. Novel jacket designs include the "Liquid Reflective" coat, that uses thousands of small shards of glass which reflect to light.

In the late 1990s the make has been popular among football enthusiast 'casuals' in England and throughout the rest of Europe. [2] The brand can also be seen in many soccer hooliganism based films, such as Green Street Hooligans and The Football Factory.

The Stone Island mens collection covers all of your wardrobe needs. Known for their innovative approach Stone Island continue to bring fresh ideas to mens fashion.

Stone Island was formed in 1982 by Art Director Massimo Osti because his passion for textile finishes and interest in clothing dyes, the brand now has its own colour lab and has developed over recipes. This creative approach to clothing design and construction has pushed the brand forwards to be the famous name it is today, for more info visit our website: Stone Island JeansStone Island TracksuitStone Island Jacket

A Course in Miracles Teacher Talks About God, The Bible, Ego, ACIM and Advaita Vedanta

David Hoffmeister— A Course in Miracles Teacher: The Bible told us, "Hold  no graven images before the Lord, thy God." It wasn't talking about totem  poles or golden calves, like we thought. It was actually talking about anything  in time and space that you hold more valuable than God or your true Self.  Anything that you hold more valuable than God or our true Self will block you  from the awareness of love.  Spirit is not a religion or a theology. Spirit and love is a state of mind. You  can't know that presence as long as you value anything else besides that  presence. That's why with all the commandments; the two that Jesus emphasized  was, "Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and soul and mind."  And, "Love thy neighbor as thy self." Not as a separate entity or a  separate being. So, when the song we listened to earlier said, "You literally are your brother. You literally are your sister," it's pointing  to all ...

A Course in Miracles and Awakening by David Hoffmeister

Enjoy the following excerpt from a transcribed talk given by  A Course in Miracles  teacher David Hoffmeister. Like the Horatio Alger stories, "Pull yourself up from your disadvantaged past and make something of yourself." That was even an army slogan as I was growing up, "Be all that you can be." Oh great. I think I have better aspirations than going around gunning down people in other countries, but still it was the whole thing. It was no different than trying to improve your life, improve your circumstances, and all the work and all the energy that goes into striving to have a better life. All of it's for naught because still you are dreaming a dream and if you actually begin to grasp this, you will soon get over self-improvement. You will soon get over trying to make the world a better place and all the work; just think of the social services, end world hunger, what do you mean? Who invented world hunger? That's part of a dream. There's nuc...
