Technical label Stone Island has been frequently releasing a range of pieces lately, and its latest drop is the Resin Poplin-TC anorak piece. Following the launch of its expansive Marina collection, the brand drops a waterproof parka, and now a brightly colored anorak. The hooded piece is constructed with cotton poplin materials, then soaked in a lightweight poliurethane resin.
The Resin Poplin-RC is available in two colorways -- a choice of black, or a bright blue named 'Tintenblau.' The outerwear piece wears a kangaroo pouch pocket on the front and has the label's signature patch adorning the left sleeve. The hooded piece is basically a garment that is dyed with a unique color formula, then a peeling off active ingredient is added afterwards. The anorak is then coated in resin to preserve the color and give it a chalky pastel visual.
