Few people can say they’ve had an impact on streetwear the way that Jeff Ng a.k.a. jeffstaple has. But he will never tell you that because he is way too humble. After creating Staple Design in 1997 as a three-tier design consultancy, it has since flourished into what is now one of the most well-known establishments in the game. But Jeff’s road to success wasn’t paved with gold; it has been filled with trials and tribulations that have taught him many lessons he tries to instill in others to this day. And it’s these moments in his career, from dropping out of college to the aftermath of 9/11, that he attributes to defining his career. Take a journey into the past of a streetwear legend--in his own words--in the last in a series of seven “Arrival” features made possible by the new Heineken Star Bottle.
