Four Collaboration Bags Released
Kinashi Cycle, a bicycle shop located in Soshigaya, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo, has been loved for its unchanging style since its founding in 1961. The second collaboration bag collection with BRIEFING, a bag brand known for its heavy-duty designs that meet US military specifications, has been completed.

The "Red Line" Series Reimagined in Monotone
Kinashi Cycle also sells original goods produced by Noritake Kinashi, the eldest son of the Kinashi family and affectionately known as "Nori-san." The shop is loved by many for its wide range of products, from practical sundries to high-quality bags.
The collaboration with BRIEFING began in 2012, sparked by a friendship between Noritake Kinashi and the president of BRIEFING. Following the success of the first collection's golf bag, this highly anticipated second release features four models: a messenger bag, a helmet bag, a double zip pouch, and a micro pouch.
The logo from BRIEFING's classic "Red Line" series has been changed to white, the brand color of Kinashi Cycle. Furthermore, by removing the trademark red stitching, the bags achieve a complete monotone look, offering a chic impression distinct from the Red Line series.
Additionally, items like the micro pouch were specially designed for this collaboration, resulting in a collection that truly embodies originality. The robust construction of BRIEFING and the warm design aesthetic of Kinashi Cycle have been masterfully fused.
