The print on these T-shirts from Beauty & Youth United Arrows, a Japan based boutique, feature photographs taken by Mash SF’s Mike Martin. Each shirt features its own snapshot, which reflects the fixed gear culture. If you’re thinking about getting your hands on one of these, think again. As if limiting these shirts to fifty made doesn’t make buying one tough enough, you can only get them in Japan.
New to the scene are these Nike SB Buzz Lightyear and Eugene Backpacks. The Buzz Lightyear backpack (on the left) rocks a vibrant color theme, perfect to match that custom paint job your fixed gear sports, And if that’s to loud for you, there is Nike SB Eugene Backpack, which is sold in black with red attributes, also. With more storage than its predecessor, both Nike SB Buzz Lightyear and Eugene Backpack is a perfect fit for riders who need the carry capacity. The interiors of these packs offer plenty of storage compartments with more color. Check out more photos after the jump.

Not only are fixed gear bikes dominating traffic congested city streets but they’ve also managed to weasel their way into fashion show and on runways. Track bikes have come a long way since their existence and this photo shoot illustrates that these bikes, which were once used predominantly by male cyclists, are finding more homes than ever before.

This cog necklace is pretty blingin’, considering it was once a functioning part on someone’s bike. If your looking to accessorize yourself in efforts to display you love for fixed gear riding, creating your own cog necklace might be of interest. FYI- From what I hear, it takes a good amount of elbow grease to transform a used cog into a piece of jewelry like this one. However, it can be done.
If your looking for the perfect messenger bag to throw over your should before saddeling up on that track bike, but you’re looking to keep the price down, make one yourself using things you have around your house. To make your own courier bag you will need an iron, plastic bags, wax paper, scissors, buckles, Velcro, and something to sew with. The out come is a one of a kind messenger bag that’s bound to turn a few heads.
An ugly chick flying down the street can be masked by the beauty of Aerospoke wheels, a vibrant color scheme, and a few hipster accessories the same way “celebrity sunglasses” can enhance almost any chicks appeal. However, we’d like to believe there is some true beauty shared between both rider and fixie in this photo shoot.
I’d have to say if you can find your more traditional cycling cap before hitting the street, consider one of these New Era x Undefeated hats as a stylish substitute.
