Cerita - Stone Island



Stone Island is an Italian premium men's apparel brand from Ravarino famous for its compass patch that buttons onto the upper sleeve of the left arm. It belongs to Carlo Rivetti's "Sportswear Company" (SPW).


Massimo Osti started his first label C.P. Company in 1974. Stone Island was set as a secondary line or diffusion collection of his main label. The brand specialized in surface treatment of fabrics and dyeing techniques. GFT bought the company in 1983, Osti left in 1994, it is now run by Carlo Rivetti.


Originally the patches were green edged, badges from around the year 2000 onwards became black edged. There are also a run of rarer 'white badges' which were originally made on certain jackets to celebrate the millennium. The white badge is now apparent on jackets that use materials that Stone Island develops themselves in-house. Novel jacket designs include the "Liquid Reflective" jacket, that uses thousands of small shards of glass that reflect to light.

From the late 1990s the make has been popular among football fan 'casuals' in England and throughout the rest of Europe. The brand can also be seen in many football hooliganism based films, such as Green Street Hooligans and The Football Factory.

Cerita - Cotton Traders


Cotton Traders is a British clothing company, specialising in rugby apparel and leisurewear, based in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, England. It was founded in 1987 by former England national rugby union team captains Fran Cotton and Steve Smith.

History
Cotton Traders was founded by former England rugby players Fran Cotton and Steve Smith in 1987. The
company is one of UK's multi-channel retailers, employing over a 1000 staff with an annual gross turnover of more than £91million.

The company started out in a small room next to Altrincham railway station, supplying rugby shirts via mail order using advertisements in the Sunday newspapers. After two years the business had an annual turnover of £2million. New ranges covering leisurewear and casual clothes for men and women, footwear and accessories were added. Clothing retailer Next purchased a share of the business in 1997.

Cotton Traders operates 125 retail stores nationwide in high street, retail outlets, garden centres, airports and motorway services locations. They also provide an overseas delivery service.

The company operates from four main buildings in Altrincham and a distribution centre in Pontefract. Cotton Traders House is responsible for the management of the company. The nearby operations site deals with customer service and the placing of customer orders through the telephone. In 2006 a vacant office building opposite Cotton Traders house was purchased and in 2012 a fourth building was added. Head office departments are split between Cotton Traders House, Cotton Mill (formerly Neptune House) and the Cotton Hub.

In 2014, Cotton and Smith purchased back the 33% share of Cotton Traders held by Next, regaining full ownership of the company.

Logo legal action
Cotton Traders were the official suppliers of rugby kit to the Rugby Football Union (RFU) between 1991
and 1997, including supplying the rugby shirts worn by the England national rugby union team. As an official supplier, Cotton Traders also produced replica shirts for sale to the public. Following the loss of the contract to Nike in 1997, Cotton Traders continued producing a rugby shirt for sale in the style of the English national team, namely a white shirt with a red rose emblem on the chest. This culminated in a legal case being brought against Cotton Traders by the RFU and Nike in 2002, seeking to ban the sale of what they deemed 'unauthorised merchandise'. A High Court judge ruled in favour of Cotton Traders in the case, citing that the classic style rose used on the Cotton Traders shirt was associated with England as a country or team and not the RFU specifically, and as such it could not be registered as a trade mark.


ps : bozzo ada gak selai dua koleksi baju-baju jenama cotton traders ni dalam simpanan. nanti kalau ada masa bozzo akan update. tapi yang pasti untuk peminat sukan rugbi memiliki baju jenama ini satu kemestian kerana kualiti kain dan jahitan sangat2 memuaskan. jangan asyik nak layan canter je....
