R.SPORT Takes Tokyo by Storm with New “Taxi Cup” Collection
Melbourne-based collective R.SPORT is making waves in the world of sportswear with their latest international drop, “Taxi Cup, Tokyo.” Founded by Anthony Puliatti and Jasper Pittard, R.SPORT is known for their unique blend of team culture and lifestyle, infused with retro-inspired designs.
The collection draws inspiration from the vibrant colors and patterns of Tokyo’s iconic taxis, resulting in a range of patchwork football jerseys, rugby polos, and oversized track pieces. Each piece pays tribute to the city’s bold sports design culture, with subtle nods to Japan’s signature clean and minimalist aesthetic.
During a trip to Tokyo, the R.SPORT team became fixated on the city’s taxis, each one sporting its own unique color palette and pattern. This fascination translated into four key pieces that capture the chaotic charm of Tokyo through a retro lens. The collection features oversized parachute track pants and ¾-length shorts, both adorned with the iconic gray-and-white checker tape seen on many of Tokyo’s black taxis.
One of the standout pieces is a patchwork football jersey that combines four taxi-inspired patterns, while a rugby polo pays homage to Japan’s clean and sleek design. The collection also features the Tokyo Team Crest, a subtle nod to the J.LEAGUE’s legacy of bold jersey culture, sure to resonate with football fans worldwide.
The “Taxi Cup” collection is now available to shop online, so don’t miss your chance to add a touch of Tokyo’s vibrant energy to your sportswear wardrobe.
