Steel Cyclewear & Coffee Shop
58 Rue de la Fontaine au Roi
Paris is effectively built to be explored by bicycle, though it wasn’t always cyclist friendly. From the 1990s, bicycle paths have steadily been extending through the city. Now, there are routes taking you along the Seine, by the canals, and one passing right by Rue de la Fontaine au Roi. Which is useful, since the city’s most unique cyclewear store can be found there.
This store is a monument to how Paris has integrating cycling into its culture. Fashion (for riding or otherwise) occupies on side, with actual bicycles widely incorporated into the décor. On the other side, a gorgeous coffee shop, hangout spot, and cyclists haven.
