1slow370 · 02-18-2010, 04:32 AM

tell me please what the touring edition has against this this setup?

kenchan · 02-18-2010, 07:10 AM

I like it.

I like the simple black scheme.

Only these anime folks want more rainbow colors in their interior.

RCZ · 02-18-2010, 10:42 AM

you are nuts man. I like those a lot!

phelan · 02-18-2010, 10:47 AM

so...someone want to tell me the difference between regular BRIDE and BRIDE Japan??

OMGWTFBBQ · 02-18-2010, 10:56 AM

Maybe it has to do with that whole debacle that popped up a while back about the Bride logo and name not being a registered trademark. So then companies in Taiwan and Canada, to name a few, began making the the exact same seats. So something about Bride Japan being the real Bride everybody knows about but this time actually trademarked.

Just a wild guess.

Reaper42 · 02-18-2010, 11:20 AM

The bride japan edition i believe were made for that exact reason ^ Now that is WHY they were made but i think he was askin whats the difference. Well for one obviously the logo, special off white thread, with the japan trademark. Also I am 95% sure the entire seat is covered in buckskin, instead of cloth. So really nice suede like feel, but WAY better than alcantara.

Correct me if I am wrong.

They look pretty comfortable as well.

You are partially correct. The REAL reason was that tees USA, the main distributor for Bride in the US, trademarked the logo for the Bride parent company here in the states as they started doing business together. Tee's was only meant to be a distributor for the Bride company in Japan.

Well, things started to go south when Bride Japan found out that Tee's was actually making their own seats and selling them on their own without authorization and marketing them as real "Bride" seats. This opened up a whole new level of knockoffs as companies in Taiwan and China, etc all started copying Tee's USA and doing the same thing. The market started getting flooded with real "Bride" seats.

Since the real "Bride" could not do anything, they then decided to change their name to "Bride Japan".

So it sounds like I should just buy Recaro or Sparco it sounds like.

Yeah that was the first thought I had. LOVE the back support, but how are the leg/thigh bolsters? They do look super comfy too.

The only time there's a drink in my cup holder is on the way somewhere. Never open. Typically my phone is in there. Usually it's RIGHT SIDE UP THOUGH. lol
