San Francisco loves to bike!
San Francisco is a city full of bikers wiggling their way through the city. Guess what? We got cute biker gear from collaborations by SOU・SOU and Le Coq Sportif.

Le Coq Sportif is a French company founded in 1948. It became one of the most popular sportswear brands supplying sports gear to the Tour de France and professional soccer teams. Now SOU・SOU collaborates with Le Coq Sportif to introduce their bikers line, including the messenger bags and UV protective bike gloves! Come to the store and check our our new SOU・SOU × Le Coq Sportif fashion!
