Founded by Stone Island owner Carlo Rivetti in 2009 and designed since its very inception by Acronym’s Errolson Hugh, Shadow Project is an independent shadow of the main brand, Stone Island. Or in the words of Rivetti it is “our Formula 1 team”, not run as a business but as an innovation unit, challenging the entire company to keep pushing the boundaries. The hybridization of Hugh’s inimitable vision of contemporary urban performance and Stone Island’s unparalleled technical-industrial expertise, Shadow Project continues to sprawl out across the landscape in sleek experimental reinterpretations of icons of Italian sportswear.
