After exploring the origins of Stash’s Nike Air Classic BW and the hilarious backstory to Dave Ortiz’s Air Max 90 “Bacon”, we now turn our attention to another NYC-based legend in sneakers – Jeff Staple. Known across the globe as the orchestrator of the “Pigeon” Dunks, Jeff has worked on and endless number of projects with several brands across the board.
