Equipment: Volante Design Debuts Officially Licensed Speed Racer & Racer X Jackets

Volante Design, known for merging streetwear with story, proudly announces the release of two high-speed styles inspired by the classic anime Speed Racer (Mach GoGoGo): the officially licensed Speed Racer Jacket and Racer X Jacket. Designed for fans, racers, and rebels alike, these new additions bring the legacy of Speed Racer to life through sleek silhouettes, sharp tailoring, and bold details.

The Speed Racer Jacket embodies the fast, bold spirit of the Mach 5’s legendary driver. With a streamlined silhouette and high-performance flair, it captures Speed’s passion, precision, and relentless pursuit of victory. Built for agility and edge, this jacket is a tribute to racing greatness—perfect for those looking to stay ahead of the pack.

 

The Racer X Jacket, on the other hand, is designed for those who operate in the shadows. With sharp lines and a dynamic fit, it speaks volumes without saying a word—ideal for those who thrive in silence but dominate the track.

 

“When we approach licensed designs, we aim to stay authentic to the original while creating something modern, wearable, and unique,” said David Volante, CEO and Designer. “With Speed Racer, I wanted a jacket that felt at home on the track but still captured the playfulness and color of the original animation. For Racer X, I used that same racing stripe as a foundation, evolving it into the ‘X’ across the back—giving each jacket a shared energy, but distinct identity.”

Each piece is crafted with Volante’s signature commitment to quality, wearability, and immersive fashion. Whether fans align with the high-octane energy of Speed Racer or the calculated precision of Racer X, both designs offer a powerful statement for everyday heroes.

 

Both jackets will launch on 04/17/25 at 2pm EST at ​volantedesign.us.

 

The officially licensed Speed Racer and Racer X jackets will be available April 17, 2025, for an MSRP of $345 USD.
