TACOMA FUJI RECORDS
TACOMA FUJI RECORDS meets Circles T-Shirt 2024
Printed on a reliably comfortable body that suits any physique, this shirt features artwork by Tomoo Gokita, the artist behind the iconic TACOMA FUJI RECORDS logo. I feel like if you ride your bike with a cheerful clown, you can laugh off any little troubles you might have.

TACOMA FUJI RECORDS meets Circles Tote Bag
This year, in addition to the T-shirt, we’ve created an original tote bag featuring artwork by Tomoo Gokita. While I love elaborate gimmicks and gear-focused designs, I’ve realized as I’ve gotten older that, in the end, it’s these kinds of simple, easy-to-use totes that are the best.

Price: 7,150 yen (tax included)
TADE QUI
18th Anniversary Limited Bring back pack
From TADE QUI, creators of products for cyclists, comes a new staple item: the Bring Back Pack.
If you find a nice souvenir while out on a ride, bring it back for your family. With the Bring Back Pack, you can handle unexpected cargo. Seeing your family happy means you can go for another ride next week. This backpack is packed with that kind of ulterior motive(?), featuring shoulder straps meticulously angled so the pack fits your back while in a cycling position. The drawcord includes reflective thread, so you can leave it dangling to serve as a reflector. It’s full of thoughtful details for cyclists.
Maximum capacity is about 12L.
※ The "Crazy Pattern" is a limited Circles 18th-anniversary item. (Limited quantity) Colors are assorted, so they may differ from the photos.
Price: 14,300 yen (tax included)
BAR LIQUORS
BAR LIQUARS meets Circles 18th Anniv Lemon Sour Glass
BAR LIQUORS is the drinking department of the Valicans, known to those in the know. They’ve revived the lemon sour glass created for our 16th anniversary.
When you think of cycling, you think of this design, so we chose Jerry Ukai’s "SAVE THE EARTH RIDE A BIKE" artwork and had it colored in our corporate colors!
Ride your bike, drink a lemon sour, grab some delicious curry or ramen, and spend a fun, lively time with everyone—there’s no way war could happen then! The world is at peace! Cheers in Nagoya this weekend!
Price: 2-piece set 3,300 yen (tax included)
ONC MERINO
ONC MERINO meets Circles 18th Anniv. Classics Merino Tee
Circles staff fell in love with ONC MERINO, which offers only long-sleeve T-shirts made of 100% merino wool for comfort, and asked them to produce a commemorative merino long-sleeve for our anniversary.
Furthermore, for this triple collaboration between Circles, ONC Merino, and... someone else, we brought in Bar Liquors, who also handled our glass design. While the straight-up message "SAVE THE EARTH RIDE A BIKE" might feel a bit embarrassing at first, the way someone looks fluttering in that gear while straddling a bike is nothing short of pure style.

Circles 18th Anniv. Original Bandana
A bandana we want you to always bring along when you go play on your bike. We made it with a thin, easy-to-use material, so you can tie it around your neck as an accent, use it as a handkerchief, wear it as a headband, or whatever else your imagination comes up with—there are 100 ways to use it.
This year, we made bold use of the main visual and designed it in our corporate color, "Red," giving it a nice, American feel.
Size: 53cm x 53cm
Price: 2,200 yen (tax included)
18th Anniv. REFLECTOR BAND
Distributed as a novelty item at the party, these Circles Original Reflector Bands are a mark of friendship. Using the main visual as a motif, the subtly placed Circles logo makes for a super stylish finish.
Wrap it around your ankle to keep your pant leg out of the chain, or wrap it around your bag or bike to act as a reflector! We made these because we want you to have them close by as a cycling essential.
Stay safe on the night roads this winter.
Price: 500 yen (tax included)
