BRIDE Black Logo Series Is Back: ZETA IV, STRADIA III & GIAS III Now Available

If you've been in the JDM scene long enough, you remember the black BRIDE logo center cushion. It was subtle, it was clean, and when BRIDE moved away from it, enthusiasts never stopped asking for it back. BRIDE listened. The Black Logo Revival series is officially here, and it's available across three of BRIDE's current flagship seats: the ZETA IV full bucket, and the STRADIA III and GIAS III reclinables.

What's the Black Logo Series?

Functionally, these are the same seats BRIDE builds today — same shells, same fire-retardant fabrics, same Made in Japan quality. The difference is the center cushion: instead of the standard branding, you get the understated tone-on-tone black BRIDE logo woven into the cushion fabric. It's a look that blends into a black interior instead of shouting over it, and it's been one of the most requested revivals in BRIDE's lineup for years.

All three models are available in your choice of FRP silver shell or carbon shell.

The Lineup

ZETA IV — The Full Bucket

BRIDE's flagship full bucket, renewed for the first time in 16 years. The ZETA series has always been the standard-bearer for BRIDE fixed-back seats, and the ZETA IV continues that with a shell shaped to the body for hold that works from daily street driving all the way to wheel-to-wheel competition. At just 7.4 kg, it's seriously light, and it carries FIA 8855-1999 homologation, so it's legal for internationally sanctioned racing. It also conforms to Japan's Road Transport Vehicle Act safety standards.

STRADIA III — The Daily-Friendly Reclinable

The first full model change for the STRADIA series in roughly 15 years. The concept: circuit-level hold without giving up the convenience of a reclining seat you can live with every day. The seat design makes getting in and out easy, and BRIDE's patented LOWMAX System lets you mount low even in tight cabins — and in most applications, it can zero out the offset between the steering column and seat center.

GIAS III — The Super Reclinable

The GIAS series' first full redesign in 16 years. This is BRIDE's flagship reclining sport seat, built with deep shoulder and high side support for rigidity and hold that genuinely rivals a full bucket — while still reclining. Like the STRADIA III, it uses the LOWMAX System for a low seating position and precise steering-to-seat center alignment.

Fitment Notes

  • ZETA IV shell applications: FO, FB, FK, FG, IG, FT, LG, LF, FX
  • STRADIA III / GIAS III applications: RO, RB, RK, LR
  • Seat rails are available for a wide range of chassis — if you're not sure which rail your car needs, reach out and we'll confirm fitment before you order.

Which One Should You Get?

  • Track-focused or building a dedicated motorsport car? ZETA IV. It's the lightest, it's FIA homologated, and fixed buckets simply hold better.
  • Daily driver that sees canyon or occasional track time? STRADIA III. Easiest entry/exit of the three and genuinely comfortable for commuting.
  • Want maximum hold but refuse to give up recline? GIAS III. The deep shoulder support makes it the closest thing to a full bucket that still tilts back.

Whichever you choose, the black logo cushion is a limited-style revival — historically, when BRIDE brings back a heritage spec, it doesn't stay in the catalog forever. If this is the look you've been waiting for, don't sit on it.
