Palace and Rizla drop MotoGP-inspired capsule for summer 2026
Palace and Rizla turn MotoGP history and London-night counterculture into a 14-piece summer capsule, landing May 29 with race jackets and mesh jerseys.
Palace has found a sharp summer code: take Rizla, a brand that bills itself as the "No.1 Rolling Papers" label with "200+ Years Heritage," and cut its motorsport archive into a 14-piece capsule that feels made for London after dark. The mix is direct and effective, with race jackets, rugby shirts, mesh jerseys, T-shirts and caps giving the collaboration enough range to read as a full wardrobe, not a logo exercise.
The collection lands Friday, May 29, in the UK, United States, Europe and Canada. Japan, Australia, South Korea and Hong Kong follow on Saturday, May 30, in a rollout that fits Palace’s usual drop cadence and its Summer 2026 calendar. Palace has already given the collaboration a dedicated home on its site under PALACE RIZLA, a sign that this is meant to sit inside the season rather than hover as a one-off novelty.
What makes the capsule resonate is the way it treats Rizla’s past as style language. Rizla’s racing story runs back to Kevin Schwantz and the Suzuki GP team in the 1980s, then to the brand’s title sponsorship of Suzuki’s MotoGP team in 2006. The Rizla blue livery became part of that memory, a colorway that signals speed, sponsorship and a very specific kind of two-wheeled swagger. Palace, founded in London in 2009, knows how to translate subculture into graphics with a grin, and here it leans into British counterculture without sanding off the edges.
That is why the strongest pieces in the range are the ones that carry the most attitude with the least explanation. The race jackets bring pit-lane polish into streetwear form, while the rugby shirts and mesh jerseys turn teamwear into something cleaner, lighter and easier to throw over summer layers. The caps and T-shirts do the hard work of the capsule, carrying the visual shorthand that Palace readers actually clock first. In a season crowded with lazy heritage callbacks, Palace and Rizla make the smarter move: they turn an old racing identity into nightlife uniform and let the history flash only when it hits the light.
