Stone Island is proud to announce a first-of-its-kind partnership with the Scarborough Shooting Stars professional Canadian basketball team…

…which synthesizes innovative fabrication and athletic performance at its highest level. For the 2024 season, the family-owned and run team will wear specially designed Stone Island warmups.

The set consists of a jacket and pants, and it utilizes the iconic Italian sportswear’s signature Nylon Metal fabric, a true testament to its commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and authenticity. The all-black suits are garment dyed with custom pigments and hand-finished to ensure a vibrant, distinctive, and high-quality finish.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Scarborough Shooting Stars and bring our expertise in fabric research and innovative design to the basketball court,” said [Robert Triefus], CEO of Stone Island.

The reigning Canadian Elite Basketball League Champions, known just as much for their commitment and presence in their community, are equally excited about the collaboration. “Having Stone Island create our warmups is an incredible honor” said Nicolas Carino, the President of Scarborough Shooting Stars. “We’ve always loved the brand on a personal level so this is a full-circle moment for us. We can’t wait to share with our fans.”

The partnership will be celebrated during the second to last home game of the season on Stone Island Night where fans and Toronto-area fashion enthusiasts will have the exclusive opportunity to purchase the limited-edition pieces.

This collaboration is a celebration of two brands that are continually pushing boundaries, setting new standards in their respective fields, and keeping family first. The warm-ups will be available for purchase at the Stone Island Toronto Flagship Store – at 104 Yorkville Ave - starting from July 27th.
