The History of Attaquer
A French Name With An Unapologetically Australian Inflection
From the outset they’ve sought to tread their own path, taking cues from outside the traditions of cycling in the worlds of art, music, fashion, street and skate. Boutique kit brands and industry ‘disruptors’ are a dime a dozen in 2023, but a decade ago Attaquer truly changed the industry with bold, matching print kits of the quality and performance that only the pros had access to at the time. Their fashion-forward approach, with an uncompromising focus on technicality, cemented Attaquer as a genuine pioneer in the world of cycling, instantly recognisable across the globe.
Founded and based in Sydney, Australia, a uniquely Australian character threads through the brand, an acknowledgement of but complete disregard for the ‘rules’ of cycling. For the last decade Attaquer has been offering cyclists the opportunity to express themselves on the bike, to be their ‘Alter Egos’. Never stopping to take a breath, Attaquer has been relentlessly pushing forward, continuously innovating to redefine premium cycling apparel and reset the standard. From iconic seasons of limited kits to the current head-to-toe, four season range, the brand is a long way from where it started, but still unmistakably, inimitably Attaquer.
Art, Music, Fashion & Attaquer
Art, music and fashion run deep in the DNA of Attaquer and our instantly recognisable artist collaborations have always been an important and unique feature point, the most overt expression of these foundations. From local tattoo artists, to young and emerging artists, right through to ubiquitous icons like Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, these collections have echoed our shared approaches, the rule-breaking DIY attitudes that set them and us apart from the rest.
