This is Akira. 'Doesn't look like riding gear' is easy to say but hard to execute, building in CE Level 1 shoulder and elbow protectors while keeping the stretch of a jersey material is a real test of construction. What you learn wearing something for hours is that whether it actually holds up as everyday streetwear comes down to how well the S-to-3L sizing is actually measured.

Riding gear that doubles as everyday wear is genuinely helpful

Kawasaki Plaza exclusive is a real barrier though

Kind of a shame it's only gray and black

CE Level 1 protectors built in makes that price fair

¥33,000 is pricey for everyday wear though
