In 2002 I was contracted to work with a Japanese marketing company called Sakura International. During the six month contract I consulted Sakura in designing the "Raven Gear" line of clothing and accessories specifically created for bike messengers and urban cyclists. Along with these waterproof cold-weather technical gloves I also designed a pullover, a cycling jersey, a shirt, a face mask, pants, fingertip-less gloves, hats, caps, and arm/leg warmers.

    Some features of the Raven Gear waterproof glove:

  • - Oversized waterproof four-fingered glove.
  • - Reflective strip across the knuckles.
  • - Soft moisture-absorbing material over the backs of the fingers
         for convenient drying of tears, sweat, or sniffles.
  • - Oversized adjustable velcro flap closure around the wrist
         with D-ring and an attachable clip.
  • - Zippered pocket across the top of the hand
         for storing small items, coins, or inserting heat packs.
