Recent studies highlight how “I have not seen it” is the main cause of incident for those who move on foot, bike or motorcycle in the city without wearing reflective vest.
Starting from this consideration, the French start-up, Urban Circus, has made Jongleur a jacket designed precisely to avoid unnoticed passage.
The starting point seems to be that of a normal aviator bomber that went to the bigger in the ’90s, so double-face, to which they added a hood and orange cover on a hyper-reflective material that almost seems to be a brightness amplifier visible from 200 meters away.
The orange reflective tape is characterized by a motif that resembles wheels, cut oranges or, in any case, circular circles.
The jacket, although it still needs some further attention, particularly in detail and design, is likely to become an element of indispensable clothing for all those who use the bicycle in the darkest hours, particularly along the darkest provincial roads, where The greater the risk of getting into the perfume “I have not seen it” and hopefully soon comes to permanently supplant the reflective vest that resembles so much the garments of those who work on the road construction sites.
The sale price for this item is 130 € and is available on the manufacturer’s website, although the small sizes are already out of stock, while on the platform it is possible to book the heads of the new collection, which are definitely more sought-after and more attentive.
In short, Jongleur is a reflective jacket that may not please, but we are sure it will become an interesting reference for all those who make clothing for the commuter.
