Stone Island and New Balance’s latest collaboration returns to football and the subcultural, sporting codes inherent to the game. Blending their signature technical skillsets, the collection introduces a new iteration of the Furon v8 boot alongside a re-engineered Football Kit, drawing together New Balance’s on-pitch expertise and Stone Island’s forensic approach to materials.

The campaign sets the collection exactly where it belongs: under a blue sky on a London pitch, with Bukayo Saka and Dave kitted up and lacing up their boots. Shot by Dexter Navy and filmed by Blackwall, the visuals follow the pair debating alien life mid-kickabout, before casually sending the ball into orbit.

Digging into the collection, the Furon v8 arrives in monochrome tones, featuring a Hypoknit upper, ripstop texture, subtle camo, 3D logos and off-set lacing for harder strikes. While the football kit includes a jersey, shorts and socks designed in tune with the Furon v8, crafted in polyester jacquard with engineered mesh zones, raised logos and reflective accents.
