Stone Island Heavyweight Cotton Cargo Shorts with Double-Zip Pockets and Compass Badge

Heavyweight Cotton Cargo Shorts. Double-Zip 3D Cargo Pockets with Lower Sub-Pocket. Elasticated Button Waist. Compass Badge. Three Colours.

A Stone Island cargo short in a heavyweight cotton twill or canvas — the most substantial and structured fabric in this Stone Island shorts range. The cotton is thick, dense, and firmly woven, with a matte finish, prominent topstitching throughout, and a body that holds its form independently of the wearer. The construction is the closest in this range to a classic military or workwear cargo short in weight and material character, with the pocket architecture scaled to match the fabric’s volume. All three colourways share the same construction; the beige and green colourways carry a light garment-wash treatment that introduces a subtle worn quality to the surface, while the black is unwashed and reads as a clean, full-depth matte.

The waist is finished with a elasticated waistband with a single metal button closure at the centre front and a tonal drawstring threaded through the waistband. The front body carries two large angled slash pockets, larger in opening than the equivalent pockets on other shorts in this range. The defining feature is the double-zip 3D cargo pocket on each outer leg: a large, three-dimensionally structured patch pocket with two parallel horizontal zip closures at the top — each zip providing independent access to a separate compartment within the main pocket body. Below the main double-zip pocket, a small flap sub-pocket is sewn to the lower edge of each cargo pocket, adding a third pocket function per side. The total external cargo pocket count is therefore three compartments per side (two zipped upper + one flap lower) across two outer leg panels. The leg is finished with a straight clean hem and small side vents.

The Stone Island compass rose badge is positioned on the right outer leg on all three colourways, sewn directly to the cargo pocket face. The badge format and surrounding hardware vary slightly by colourway (see below), but all three carry the standard yellow-green compass on black ground.

Beige (Off-White / Pale Sand)

A very pale off-white or sand beige — lighter and cooler than standard khaki, closer to ecru or natural cotton in tone. The light garment-wash treatment on this colourway introduces a soft, slightly uneven tone distribution that gives the pale ground a lived-in, pre-aged quality without a strong contrast wash effect. The topstitching and pocket seams are subtly visible against the pale base. The tonal drawstring is off-white or cream. The compass badge on the right cargo pocket face is a yellow-green compass rose on black square ground (standard), providing the primary colour accent against the pale ground.

Green (Military Olive / Army Green)

A military olive or army green — a warm, muted yellow-green that references classic army field gear. The light garment-wash on this colourway produces a slightly faded, sun-worn effect that gives the olive a vintage field quality, with the topstitching and seam lines reading as a slightly lighter tone against the washed ground. The metal button at the waist is gold or brass tone, reinforcing the military reference. The compass badge on the right cargo pocket face is a yellow-green compass rose on black square ground (standard).

Black (Deep Matte Black)

Deep flat matte black across the heavyweight cotton, with no garment-wash or surface treatment. All stitching and seam lines are tonal against the dark ground, and the construction reads primarily through the three-dimensional volume of the double-zip cargo pockets and the silhouette of the wide leg. The drawstring is white or near-white, providing a subtle contrast accent at the waist. The metal button is silver tone. On the black colourway, the compass badge on the right cargo pocket face is a yellow-green compass rose on black square ground, mounted on the pocket with visible D-ring or eyelet hardware at the badge edges — a removable-badge detail that is more prominent on the dark ground and adds a tactical hardware accent to the otherwise clean black exterior.
