TADE QUI Best in Vest Micro Ripstop 3-Layer Nylon

A riding vest that's more than a pocket, but less than a backpack

In Japan, there is a proverb: "There's no accounting for taste."
Just as some insects choose to eat bitter and spicy smartweed, this metaphor explains that everyone has different preferences.

TADE QUI is a brand that creates cycling-related products for those "eccentric" cyclists. I recently rode bikes with the designer, Mr. Hosokawa, at WONDER HOPPER, where we talked about his products and all things cycling. I’d like to introduce products carefully crafted by his own hands (everything from the patterns to the sewing is done by Mr. Hosokawa himself in a cottage-industry style)—a true embodiment of someone who loves their craft.

Every one of his products is packed with original gimmicks that never fail to surprise, but this new release is a completely new and surprising addition that hasn't been in the lineup before.

Best in Vest

Not enough to warrant a backpack. But more than what your pockets can hold.
For times like these, TADE QUI's Best in Vest is just right.

With its vest-style design, you can carry necessary items close to your body, allowing for smooth access even while on the move.

The front features multiple pockets for organizing essentials like your smartphone, nutrition, and wallet, while the back is equipped with a large pocket capable of storing a helmet, a shell jacket, or other items.

It’s more agile than wearing a backpack and offers more storage capacity than jersey pockets. It’s the perfect "just right" item for active scenes like rides and hikes.

Whether you're riding a bike, hiking a mountain, or just taking a stroll through town,
The Best in Vest is storage gear for those who want to move light.

Neither "wearing it on your back" nor "stuffing it into your pockets."
A new choice for carrying what you need, right on your person.
