stampd x native unionPremium tech accessories brand Native Union has teamed up with L.A.-based menswear brand Stampd to create the Circuit Collection – a limited edition capsule collection of charging accessories.

Inspired by 1950s office design, Stampd creative director Chris Stamp looked at what one would find on an office desk during this era and then reimagined it to meet the design and functionality needs of an executive or entrepreneur in 2017.

Each piece can be used individually or as a set.

“Modern minimalism and sleek design are where we fall in line seamlessly with Native Union and for that reason a collaboration seemed obvious to me, especially from a design perspective,” said Stamp. “I spend a lot of time working off my laptops and phone so, when I need to plug in, I not only need my tech accessories to be functional but also give me a piece of mind aesthetically.”

Presented in specially selected colorways, only 500 pieces have been made. The Circuit Collection is now available to purchase from nativeunion.com, the Stampd online shop, and its L.A. store.
