TSURIKAWAS!

Tsurikawa are iconic Japanese car accessories originally inspired by the hanging straps found on Japanese trains and buses, designed to help passengers keep balance while standing.

Over time, they became a recognizable symbol of Japanese car culture, especially within the Bosozoku, Kaido Racer, and street tuning scenes. Mounted inside or outside a vehicle, tsurikawa evolved from a practical item into a statement of individuality, style, and connection to Japan’s underground automotive culture.

Today, they remain a popular detail among JDM enthusiasts looking to add an authentic touch inspired by Japan’s unique car scene.

A small accessory with a big cultural story.
