Stanton Series 02:
Built to play faster

The Stanton Series 02 is our modern Staunton-style club chess set, redesigned from the ground up for quick, durable, everyday play.

Stanton Series 02 pieces in mid-air

Our signature silhouettes, remade in high-durometer silicone with innovative new AirGlide™ bases for fast and smooth movement across the board.

Silicone done seriously

Silicone done seriously

Building off of our signature piece architecture, the Series 02 is made from high-durometer silicone. It is firm and solid, single-weighted set with just enough give to make them durable. Soft-touch texturing gives each piece a smooth, matte finish, yet they’re built tough enough to handle slams, drops, and daily commutes.

AirGlide™ base engineering

AirGlide™ base engineering

The bottom of every piece features our new AirGlide™ base, engineered specifically for Series 02. The ABS ring base is designed to push-fit onto the bottom of each piece, lifting the silicone just off the board, so pieces glide instead of drag. This reduction in surface friction results in the smoothest playing pieces we have ever made.

Series 02 is sold in half sets, divided into lighter and darker colors so you can build a set that is your own. Each half set comes with its own light or dark mesh storage bag, making it easy to grab and go. It’s our most accessible Stanton Series yet.
