Summary
- Founded by Anthony Puliatti and Jasper Pittard, R.Sport integrates team culture with lifestyle

- The collection features patchwork rugby jerseys, rugby and oversized track and field, a subtle nod to Japan’s bold sports design culture
Melbourne-based collective R.Sport Sportswear practices are always different. Built on the delicate intersection of connections, team culture and performance with everyday life, Founder Anthony Puliatti Jasper Pittard adopted this spirit globally with their first international capsule (Tokyo Cup, Tokyo).
The series pays homage to the vibrant city that inspired it. On a quick trip to Tokyo, the R.Sport team was pinned to a local detail that is often overlooked by tourists: taxis roam the neon streets, each with its own palette, pattern and Polish. This obsession translates into four key pieces, spreading the charm of Tokyo’s chaos through distinctive retro sportswear lenses.
Expect oversized parachute sweatpants and ¾ long shorts, both with low-key off-white chess piece tape, with many Tokyo black taxis on it. Outstanding figures include a pieced together soccer jersey, a fusion of four taxi-inspired patterns, and a rugby nod to Japan’s iconic cleaning design. Subtle touches like Tokyo Team Crest reference J. League’s Bold Jersey heritage, a detail that will surely resonate with football fans around the world.
