jeffstaple, founder of Staple Design, shows us some of the new pieces for Staple's 2008 Spring Collection. The collection includes tees, track jackets, track pants, and long-sleeve polos, all with basic colors such as white, gray, and black. All the designs seem to have a school theme with tees that feature the never-ending Pi number and one that shows Einstein as a teacher. Every piece has a conceptually-driven design with nice details. The folks at Staple gives us another solid collection, always making designs that are a little more than it seems.

Here we preview the best Staple collection as of late, as seen on jeffstaple's blog. The basic style fused with strong aesthetics is key here, and nothing is over the top as Staple lets the detail and quality do the talking. A far cry from loud graphic tees and Dunks, jeffstaple provides remixed M-65s, a lightweight running windbreaker and a Napa Leather jacket. Even without closeups you can see the quality in the safari shirts and cargo pants. The one tee featured has a hint of jeffstaple's hip-hop oriented roots with the most basic graphic possible, an equation that lets the numbers do the talking: '93 Til Infinity.

In a special gathering of friends and close associates, jeffstaple previewed his 2008 Staple fall collection. Conceding that his line has grown leaps and bounds and begun a journey of maturation, we look forward to this collection. Is there a Staple x Honda Zoomer scooter (or some sort of vehicular transport) on the way?
