Young racing ace teams up with King Apparel

Racing protégé Damani Marcano teams up with British streetwear brand King Apparel

16-year-old Damani Marcano, the youngest racing driver in the 2015 Milltek Sport Volkswagen Racing Cup, has teamed up with British streetwear brand King Apparel for 2016.

The partnership sees Damani follow in the footsteps of film and music celebrities who have worked with the brand – including film star and music artist Plan B and grime-scene rap star Wretch 32. Marcano will actively promote King Apparel in the media and at events whilst also working with the brand to create unique branded pieces for 2016, starting with his own snap-back baseball cap.

Damani made the jump from karting to racing cars in 2015 and has completed his first season of racing as part of the Team-HARD. young-driver development programme in the fiercely competitive Milltek Sport Volkswagen Racing Cup.

Damani commented,  ‘As a racing driver I split my time between training in the gym, developing my driving technique and building a fan-base to attract sponsors. Partnering with brands such as King Apparel is a great way to increase my exposure. I’m really careful about which brands I work with. I felt an instant connection with King Apparel – I love how current their streetwear is and how each piece only has a limited run. I want to stand out and with King Apparel I will.’
