AURORA x MONOW Bike Jersey / Jacket

AURORA collective teamed up with MONOW, a one-man design studio based in Stuttgart/Germany.
Together they designed 3 unique Bike Jerseys / Jackets. All with a simple but sophisticated style,

The designs will look good on and off bike, whether you ride in the mountains or in the urban environment.

The Jerseys and Jackets are made of high quality materials by Champion System.
They will move and breath with you, so that you can concentrate on riding your bike.

Each design is available in a shortsleeve and longsleeve version and you can choose from fullzip or 3/4 zip. Also each design is available as a Winter Riding Jacket. This jacket is windproof and got a three-layer fleece. So it will keep you warm even in the coldest situations.

Check out the AURORA webshop and preorder your Jersey / Jacket.
The jerseys will be shipped in the beginning of july.

Inspired From Tracko’s “Save The Track Bike!” pins, we bring you “Save The Bike Messenger!” pins. The pin speaks for itself. Bike messengers perform miracles every day. The last few years messenger companies and indy messenger alike have felt the effects of the economic state. We as messengers know our importance to the city we work in. Most companies take us for granted and don’t realize how important we are to the community. This pin pays homage to all the messengers around the world working day in and day out for the love of pedaling and pushing packages.

Check COG Mag.

Nice girl, nice ride…
