Stone Island has ghosted its partner New Balance . That isn’t to say there’s anything wrong in their relationship — the Italian fabric innovator is just bringing its monochromatic “Ghost” look to a new trio of sneakers.
The Stone Island x New Balance 574 “Ghost” collection sees the nearly 40-year-old sneaker appear in all-navy, all-gray and all-dark brown colorways modeled after Stone Island ’s repeating collection of the same name. No deviation in color will be found in any variant, as each maintains a uniform hue throughout. A suede upper is hit with a brushed heel and “N” logo for textural contrast, but the sole unit and Stone Island patch tongue keep the color consistent. Even the thread used in the stitch-and-turn construction, which eliminates overlapping seams, stays true
