FAQs
What does 'Gauge 3' mean?
The gauge refers to the number of needles per inch on the knitting machine. A 3-gauge knit indicates a very chunky, thick, and durable fabric.
How sustainable is this garment?
It is highly sustainable, as it is composed of 70% recycled cotton yarn derived from the brand's own production waste, ensuring circularity.
Will the color stay exactly the same over time?
The mineral dyeing process uses iron oxides, which are designed to age gracefully. You should expect subtle changes in the shade as the garment wears in.
Can I machine wash this jumper?
Yes, but only on a gentle or delicate cycle with cold water, inside out, and ideally inside a mesh laundry bag.
What is the fit of this model?
This specific variant features a comfortable cut, but Stone Island often varies fit across different collections. Check the size chart for precise measurements.
Troubleshooting
Minor fading after multiple washes
This is a characteristic of mineral-dyed garments. Use only PH-neutral detergents and avoid direct sunlight during drying.
Pilling on high-friction areas
Use a specialized fabric shaver or a sweater comb to gently remove surface fuzz, taking care not to pull at the waffle stitch loops.
Garment losing its shape
Never store this item on a hanger. Always fold it and store it flat to maintain its structural dimensions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Stone Island regenerated cotton knit, it is essential to follow specific maintenance routines. Always turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the exterior waffle texture and the integrity of the mineral dyes. Wash with cold water on a delicate cycle using mild, neutral detergents. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or bleaching agents, as these will interact negatively with the iron oxide pigments. Lay the garment flat to dry in a shaded area; hanging may cause the weight of the cotton to stretch the knit out of shape over time. Store the item folded in a cool, dry place to prevent compression of the fibers.
