In May 2023, Reiss became the Official Travel Kit Partner to the McLaren F1 Team. What started as just a travel kit partnership turned into a bespoke licensed Reiss x McLaren collection. This collection is a first for Reiss, and to push the boundaries of Reiss’ traditional collections and associated audience, Hypemaker used the parallels between F1’s precision engineering, car-culture and Reiss’ meticulous craftsmanship to engage with new audiences and introduce Reiss to a younger and more style-conscious consumer. Both cars and clothes are an aesthetic extension of their owners and with the right combination of passion, taste and innovation: they can ascend to the level of art. Hypemaker shot stills and film at McLaren’s state-of-the-art Technology Centre designed by Fosters + Partners to launch the collection as an audio-visual exploration under the name ‘Precision Engineering’.
