88 Type-R Collection 

Honda x 88rising


“Type-R is our permission to redline.”

In honor of their 75th Anniversary, Honda granted 88rising the iconic Type-R badge to fuel a collection of activations that celebrate the intersection of cars, music, and Asian culture. 

88 Type-R is an ongoing partnership between 88rising & Honda that pushes the limit on creativity, producing high-octane creative executions across music, fashion, and experiences with a simple brief: how can we celebrate the culture while always pushing the limit on what’s next?

The first project in this partnership featured a SOLD OUT apparel collection that reimagines the Type-R lifestyle at the height of Asian import tuner culture, which debuted at 88rising’s Head in the Clouds Music Festival 2023.
