In 2022, Rhino Trunk and Case took on a bold challenge: create a collaborative trunk with streetwear giant Supreme that would send fans into a frenzy. With just four months from concept to delivery, we had to deliver a product that embodied Supreme’s iconic vibe while showcasing our unmatched craftsmanship. The result? A sell-out sensation that redefined brand collabs.
The Challenge: Hype-Worthy Design on a Tight Timeline
Supreme’s fanbase is known for its passion and high expectations. The brief was clear—design a Rhino/Supreme trunk that would excite collectors and sell out fast. With only four months to ideate, prototype, produce, and ship globally, every second counted. The trunk needed to blend Supreme’s bold aesthetic with Rhino’s durability and functionality, all while meeting the hype of a global drop.
The Solution: Precision Craftsmanship Meets Streetwear Swagger
Rhino Trunk and Case teamed up with Supreme’s design crew to bring the vision to life. Our lead designer worked hand-in-hand with Supreme, turning their ideas into tangible samples using our in-house UV digital printers for rapid prototyping. This streamlined process allowed us to perfect the design in just one month, ensuring every detail—from bold branding to sleek functionality—aligned with Supreme’s iconic style.
By month four, our production line was in overdrive, crafting 2,200 bespoke trunks for global distribution. Each trunk was a masterpiece, blending Rhino’s USA-made durability with Supreme’s streetwear edge, ready to turn heads and carry the vibe.
The Impact: A Record-Breaking Sell-Out
On April 7, 2022, the Supreme x Rhino Trunk dropped online—and sold out in a jaw-dropping 17 seconds. Fans flooded social media with unboxing videos and posts, cementing the collab as a cultural moment. The trunk wasn’t just a product; it was a statement, proving that Rhino Trunk and Case could deliver under pressure and exceed the expectations of even the most discerning fanbase.
