RYOT x Playboy

There’s probably no more recognized logo than that of the Playboy bunny. On the surface, it’s just a rabbit wearing a bow tie, but more than that it represents playfulness, boldness and sophistication. In the cannabis industry, RYOT holds the distinction as one of the most well known brands, recognized as a world leader in meticulously engineered accessories to elevate the herb consumption experience. These two iconic adult lifestyle brands form an impressive pairing. The “Playboy X RYOT” collaboration, which features bunny-branded trays, aluminum herb grinders, and other accessories, some featuring the works of popular counterculture artists, now includes a line of impact-resistant glassware crafted with an impact-resistant maple wood base, a thick streamlined ceramic bowl and stem, and smell-proof maple caps to seal in odors. “This collaboration celebrates our shared customer base and honors their quest to get the most out of life every single day,” says Dan Talbot, Co-Founder of RYOT. “Our collaborative products are practical, durable, and impeccably designed –- there’s no need to tuck these accessories away in a cabinet or drawer because they double as statement pieces.”
