Which should you buy?
These knits are close enough in build that the $25 is mostly the badge. Buy C.P. Company if you want the same garment-dye quality and design detailing without paying the Stone Island premium. Pay up for Stone Island only if the compass badge and cult status are the point for you, since reviewers say the brand carries a large share of that $285. For pure construction value, C.P. Company is the smarter pick.
