"Howrat" was a t-shirt designed to satirize hypebeasts — individuals who are highly enthusiastic about and seek out the latest and most exclusive fashion trends, often focusing on streetwear and limited-edition items.

The term "howrat" is a Marathi word that means to have or show an intense and selfish desire. The t-shirt was created to mock the insatiable appetite of hypebeasts.

"Howrat's" design replicated that of an iconic skateboard brand, Thrasher Magazine, which later was embraced by hypebeasts. This choice added layers of irony, as the t-shirt both criticized and paradoxically appealed to the very trend it mocked.
