Ultra-Thin Functional Leather Materials

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Stone Island Develops the Light Leather Organza Material

— December 21, 2024 — Art & Design
The designers at Stone Island have presented a look at its latest innovation in the form of the Light Leather Organza material. The Italian label has elevated its technical creations by making leather even more functional. The Light Leather Organza uses a very thin layer of lambskin leather and carefully bonds it together with a lightweight polyester organza in order to ensure that the material is strong and crunchy in texture.

The Light Leather Organza material debuted in the form of the 010002 hooded jacket. Other technical details on the parka silhouette include the heat-taped inner seams with black tape with reflective accents complete with a zipper fastening that gives it an additional waterproof coating.
