The 4 families, explained simply

A) Stone Island Down Jacket (warm)

• When: 32°F to 23°F (and lower depending on the model).

• Look: sport-chic, clearly visible Compass Patch.

• Sizing: take your usual size. If you wear a thick sweater, go Regular or +1.

B) Soft Shell-R (wind + light rain)

• Key point: windproof and water-repellent (light rain). Flexible, comfortable fabric.

• When: autumn / mild winter / windy days.

• Look: clean and modern, perfect for the office + commute.

• Sizing: your usual size; if wearing a hoodie underneath, Regular or +1.

C) Micro Reps (clean and lightweight)

• Key point: dense weave → holds up better against wind than an overshirt, light rain OK.

• When: mid-season, city, changeable weather.

• Look: slightly more structured than Soft Shell, very clean.

• Sizing: your usual size. If you have broad shoulders, +1.

D) Stone Island Parka / Coat (better coverage)

• Key point: longer (often mid-thigh) → better protection against wind/cold.

• When: cold winter, long commutes, coastal areas.

• Look: dressier, always with the Compass Patch.
