Jeff Staple: Not Just Sneakers

About the productJapanese

A monograph tracing the past 25 years of sneaker legend Jeff Staple's work

Jeff Staple is the founder of Staple Design and is active as a creative director and graphic designer. Known worldwide for his creative work with brands such as Nike, The Fader, and Hypebeast, he has also gained the respect of young people around the world for his street brand STAPLE and his HYPEBEAST podcast. This book is an archive book that records his representative and iconic works from the past 25 years.

In 1997, Jeff Staple stepped into a boutique in New York City and founded the streetwear brand "STAPLE". What started as a small, handmade t-shirt line quickly grew and began to gain a passionate following in New York. In the process of building this burgeoning brand, he was approached by Nike in 2005 to create a special commemorative sneaker to represent NYC. The result was the "DUNK SB PIGEON", which drew much fanfare upon its release.
In Staple's words, "to understand is to see and to see is to have clarity of mind." It was this clarity of design that helped develop his iconic pigeon logo (and brand) into a global force that would later grace the heels of nearly every major sneaker brand.

This book provides readers with a glimpse into his many significant contributions to the streetwear and sneaker industries while also contextualizing the design of STAPLE's iconic products. A beautiful visual archive, this book takes the reader on an intricate journey through streetwear history told through an insider's perspective. Featuring archival sketches, drawings, magazine covers, and contributions from Hiroshi Fujiwara and Futura, this is an essential read for any streetwear and design enthusiast.
