It's C.P. Company Season So Make Some Space
C.P. Company was founded in 1971 by a younger graphic designer called Massimo Osti. Just over a decade later Osti would go on to found Stone Island, cementing himself as one of the most influential characters in streetwear and contemporary style as a whole. Much like its younger brother Stone Island, C.P. Company’s appeal lies in its groundbreaking technical aspects. While the silhouettes are familiar in their workwear and military-style nature, the dying processes and materials used lend a futuristic, unique flavor to every garment.
Osti’s eye for detail and innovation is matched by an ability to balance Italian style and function. As such, C.P. Company occupies a rarely challenged niche. While technical materials align it with the outdoors, the inimitable dyes make it an equally natural fit for fashion weeks. The appeal of C.P. Company stretches far and wide.
Never are the technical prowess and clean style of C.P. Company as at-home than in spring, so it felt only right that we round up some of our favorite C.P. Company pieces of the season, from staple tees to high-performance outerwear.

Chrome-R Shell Jacket
One of the most attractive parts of the C.P. Company output all year round is the outerwear, but we'd argue that it's most obviously essential during the transitional period. Pieces like the Chrome-R Shell Jacket provide the lightweight protection you need for changeable weather.
Gabardine Overshirt
The C.P. Company overshirt is a perennial fixture in our wardrobes. This zip-through shirt is the king of all layering pieces.
Crewneck Sweatshirt
A definitive aspect of the brand is its affinity for amazing colorways. This season, we're treated to a range of unusually bright pastels.
Goggle Beanie
If we were to pick one piece to sum up much of C.P. Company's brand, it'd have to be the goggle beanie. Flip-down lenses have become a major signature of the Italian label.
Shorts
Taped zips and adjustable ties give this pair of black shorts the kind of technical prowess we associate with C.P. Company.
Logo Overshirt
Once again, layering perfection is on the menu. This short-sleeve shirt features a zip fastening and minimal detailing to make it a staple centerpiece.
Goggle Jacket
The goggles were originally designed to keep sand out of rally drivers' eyes, but when you're facing sunny and rainy weather in the space of 10 minutes, you need the unusual combination that this jacket provides.
Chrome-R Shell Overshirt
We've already sung the praises of the overshirt, and this Chrome-R iteration goes above and beyond on that front. The lightweight, technical fabric is almost see-through in its dusty lilac shade.
Logo T-Shirt
If you've never worn a C.P. Company T-Shirt, then you cannot claim to have experienced the pinnacle of everyday basics.
