At Kaigeo, we believe that what you carry says something about what you care about. That’s why we were intentional not only about how our bags are designed—but what they’re made of.
So let’s talk about one of our most important decisions: eco-friendly nylon.
Wait—nylon can be eco-friendly?
Yes, it can. Traditional nylon is made from fossil fuels and takes decades to break down, leaving a long-lasting impact on the environment. But the eco-nylon we use is a more responsible alternative—it’s made from recycled materials like post-consumer waste (think: fishing nets, plastic bottles, and fabric scraps) that would otherwise end up in oceans or landfills.
It’s the same strong, sleek material you love in performance gear—but reimagined with a lower footprint.
Why it matters to us (and maybe to you too)
When we created Kaigeo, we wanted bags that could keep up with busy, beautiful, real life. But we didn’t want that convenience to come at the planet’s expense.
Choosing eco-nylon was our way of saying: you don’t have to choose between sustainability and style.
We love it because:
-
It’s durable, so your bag lasts longer (less replacing, less waste).
-
It’s lightweight, so you’re not dragging around unnecessary weight.
-
It’s water-resistant, so life’s little spills don’t get the best of your stuff.
-
And yes—it’s beautiful. Sleek, soft, and timeless in our custom Onyx, Mocha, and Blush shades.
What “eco” really means at Kaigeo
Let’s be honest: “sustainable” gets thrown around a lot these days. We’re not perfect (no brand is), but we’re transparent. For us, being eco-conscious means making better choices wherever we can—like:
-
Prioritising recycled and recyclable materials
-
Reducing excess packaging
-
Designing bags that are meant to last, not be replaced every season
-
Partnering with factories that meet ethical manufacturing standards
It’s not about being trendy—it’s about being thoughtful.
Because beauty should never come at the cost of the planet
At the end of the day, we want you to feel good about what you're carrying—not just because it looks great (though it does), but because it's aligned with what you value.
So yes, your Kaigeo bag is stylish. Yes, it’s functional. But behind the zippers and compartments, there’s something deeper: a quiet commitment to doing things better.
Thanks for being part of that.
