Why not try thinking of riding a bicycle not as something special, but as something more natural?
Daily commuting, running errands on your day off, or even heading out for a long ride—none of these should be considered special; they are just part of your everyday life.
When you start to see it that way, you suddenly realize that you and your bicycle are actually connected on a deeper level, and you begin to think about it more profoundly.
And your values regarding riding a bicycle might change just a little bit, too.
Well, if I keep writing like this, I’ll end up getting a bit carried away, so I’ll stop here.
By the way, the reason I wanted to write about this is...
For several months now, I’ve been wearing QuocPham's Tourer not just for commuting, but for spending the whole day in, and even on days when I wasn't riding. Then, when the new Derby arrived, it suddenly hit me.
That’s right—QuocPham shoes are just wonderful.
QuocPham
Derby
¥34,650
These are clipless shoes featuring an "open lacing" style that originated with military boots and later became popular for hunting and work boots.
Derby maintains that rugged style while keeping a clean, refined silhouette. With its well-balanced brown suede, piping, and sole color, it’s a versatile, deep-seated pair of clipless shoes that fits everything from casual looks to party outfits, allowing for styles you previously couldn't achieve while cycling.
I want you to wear them for your commute, when you head into town on your day off, or even for a quick ride!
So, I’d like to offer a few style suggestions using the QuocPham Derby, so please take a look for inspiration.
