Iago points us to this article in the International Herald Tribune:
Otowa used to ride to work in an outfit inspired by Lance Armstrong: tight nylon cycling pants, a green cycling shirt from Nike, a helmet of fire-engine red and sunglasses from Oakley, carrying his suit and tie to change into at work. But recently he got “into organic cotton” and assembled gear based on faded black T-shirts and loose cotton pants, and a messenger bag from the Swiss recycle bag maker Freitag.
His cycling buddies are also experimenting with different gear, different looks. “Before, it was just about the bike performance and how fast I can ride,” says Otowa. “Now, I’m discovering other sources of pleasure, like fashion.”
PEdAL.E.D and Hosu are mentioned as two Tokyo shops which are designing new apparel.
We will soon stock TwonFro and Zakee gear, which appeared at Pret a Rouler.

nowadays, biking is the most effective way to save energy. despite of the global economic crisis, i think it's better if we ride bikes when traveling to near places to save gas and it's another form of exercise but we cant avoid accidents so we should always keep our eyes on our way. remember to always wear helmet when riding on public hi-ways and wear sunglasses to avoid eye-complications.
It is good to keep changing style and experimenting with new lines. Doing this boost confidence to try new things and to see ourselves in a new style as well.
i can't see the sunglasses but it states there that she wears it.
there fashion is simple and nice
