Portland Design Works Bottle Cage, Lucky Cat

The Lucky Cat Cage is made from a single sheet of lightweight 5052 alloy. Cut in the shape of a Maneki-neko (Japanese for "beckoning cat"), this bottle cage will undoubtedly bring good luck to its owner. Its side-loading design makes it a great fit, even on small bike frames.  A perfect addition for any rider who is looking to add a little luck and a little extra fun to their ride. The Lucky Cat bottle cage was designed in collaboration with first-generation Asian American artist Jake Tong, whose work is heavily influenced by Chinese, Korean, and Japanese pop culture. The design is inspired by the maneki-neko "beckoning cat," a figure that originated in Japan and is said to bring good luck. The "Lucky Cat" name comes from China, where the maneki-neko is referred to as "zhaocaimao" ("lucky cat" or "wealth-bringing cat.")
