Hello, everyone! It’s Chan-Mai!
I recently went on a send-off ride for Louis to the Chita Peninsula! It was super windy, but the weather was amazing—truly the perfect day for a ride 🌞 Why does riding under the sun feel so good? My body should be tired, but the more I ride, the more energy I seem to get♪
If there’s one essential item for a day like that, it’s gotta be sunglasses!!
Thank you for waiting, the time is here again! We’re hosting a FLOAT POPUP STORE 🏝️

Date & Time: March 14 (Sat) – March 15 (Sun), 2026
10:00-19:00
Location: At Circles, 2nd Floor
FLOAT’s lightweight sunglasses with their secure fit are always our go-to companions for rides♪ They are the perfect recommendation for this season as it warms up and our desire to ride keeps growing.
Lightweight, Flexible, and Natural Fit
FLOAT was born in Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture, known as the "mecca of eyewear," accounting for over 90% of Japan’s domestic production. It’s a region that prides itself on world-class, high-quality Japanese craftsmanship.
True to their name, FLOAT, their most outstanding quality is their "lightness."
Both the frames and temples use ultra-lightweight resin, achieving a fit so light it feels like zero gravity. By reducing the physical burden of wearing them, you can focus even more on your activities.
Their flexible temples gently grip your head, providing a nimble fit regardless of head size. Even when used for long-distance rides, they won't make your head ache and won't cause any discomfort or irritation.
Another point worth noting is how naturally they fit on the face. Their simple design, which is easy for anyone to wear—even those who aren't used to sunglasses—is loved by many. Many of our Circles staff are huge fans, too!◎
Definitely take this opportunity to get your hands on a pair that’s perfect for both cycling and daily life.
Great lineup and available to try out on rides!
New models arrived at the end of last year!
You can also try them out during the GURU training sessions and the Ride to Keep Riding, both happening on the same dates! (Photos below are just a sample selection.)
Wait, aren't GURU training sessions held at night...? If that’s what you thought, you’re sharp!👏
We’ve got you covered with sunglasses you can wear in the evening and at night too◎
Usually, sunglasses make your vision too dark as the sun goes down, but the FLOAT "TRAIL&NIGHT" models use very light blue lenses with 85% visible light transmission. Even so, they block less than 1% of UV rays, making them perfect for when you want to protect your eyes from UV rays without darkening your view, or to keep dust out of your eyes during night rides.
We look forward to seeing you at Circles next week!
Ride safely this week, too!
