Staple Pigeon

From a tshirt made in a Silkscreen class at Parsons to becoming an icon that encapsulates the spirit of New York, saying Staple Pigeon has come a long way would be an understatement.

A juggernaut in the streetwear game, Staple Pigeon, founded by Jeff Staple, or as he prefers to go by- jeffstaples,  has come to mean more than just a clothing brand. When we see the Pigeon, the words “ Let's get this bread” comes to mind. Staple Pigeon has been representing the pulse of the concrete jungle with its hustlers and go getters for over 20 years.

Staple Pigeon blew up even further when Nike approached jeffstaple in 2005, to design a commemorative sneaker that would represent NYC. The Staple Pigeon Dunk SB was born and from there it was only getting bigger and better.

jeffstaple  is constantly cited as the ideal left- right brained, his love for graphics and design balanced with his entrepreneurial skills. He is as involved in the creative process as he is in building an empire, and it shows through what he makes.

Staple Pigeon is just what you need to take an everyday outfit up a few notches. “Street-minded sensibilities with mature sophisticated nods to high-end fashion”. The Staple Pigeon Summer 19 is no different. Bright colours, interesting graphics, texts, embroidered details and a whole lotta cool. 

Colour blocks and repeated prints featuring the pigeon make an appearance as well.  The Staple Summer 19 collection offers t-shirts, shorts and caps all available on www.shopcapsul.com .

PUMA X Space Agency | Streetwear Store

On 20th July, 1969, the world witnessed a historic event that made it stop and celebrate as one human race! The Apollo 11 had landed on the Moon. “One step for man, one giant leap for mankind”.

And now 50 years later, millions have been remembering and celebrating this feat all through last week. NASA marked the anniversary by streaming footage of the launch online, that was watched by half a billion people 50 years ago. The Aldrin Family Foundation hosted a day long, family festival in Times Square where Buzz’s lunar boot-print made an appearance.

And sneaker brands commemorated the occasion with must cop drops. Nike dropped a NASA X PG3 while PUMA collaborated with the Space Agency to launch the Space Explorer capsule.

Capsul, India’s first multi-brand streetwear store has been serving up fresh threads to elevate an everyday look. It only seems fair that the first footwear drop on the platform is a collaboration that pays tribute to man’s biggest expedition, his journey into the unknown.

The PUMA CELL Alien is the first silhouette of the Space Explorer Pack. This chunky, 90’s running silhouette has been remodelled to mirror the night sky in a murdered out all black colourway with iridescent details and cosmic speckles on the midsole; talk about having the galaxy at your feet.

Tres Dean of Geek.com even says, “There’s no explicit reference on the shoe to Ridley Scott’s Alien but it’s hard to look at this one and not think of the classic Xenomorph design.” And we agree!

The second silhouette – PUMA RS 9.8 pays homage to the Space Agency in a sleek white colourway with red and blue streaks and silver spacesuit colour detailing.

PUMA’s collaboration with the Space Agency will also include Tees and Hoodies, landing soon for you to cop on Capsul. So grab your telescopes stargazers, and watch this space.

Houston, over and out.
