Below is a recent four part interview with Jeff Staple in which he discusses his influences, the origins of Staple, and hip hop.

OUTLIER Tailored Performance

"At the core, Outlier clothing is about a certain freedom. A freedom to ride, regardless of the destination. You should always look like you belong inside the city, not just out on the road pedaling. A freedom to ride, at any speed you want to. Sometimes you ride slow sometimes you ride quick, but no matter how you ride, you should always look and feel fresh and clean. A freedom to ride, no matter the weather. A cyclist is exposed to the elements in a way that few other city dwellers are, and your clothing should be ready to handle whatever the sky and streets kick at it. Our garments are designed to make getting to that freedom just a little bit easier." - Excerpt from Our Philosphy, Outlier Tailored Performance

New York State of Mind

Manhattan opening monologue by Woody Allen


I always listen to Rhapsody in Blue by George Gershwin to set the mood before heading to New York.
