Materials and Construction
Main Body
The main fabric is Bluesign-approved, 100% recycled 210D high-tenacity nylon with a PFAS-free DWR treatment.
High-tenacity nylon uses stronger yarn construction than standard nylon, increasing tear strength and long-term durability without adding excess weight. This makes it well suited to daily parenting use, where bags are repeatedly lifted, packed full and exposed to varied environments.
The PFAS-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish helps moisture bead and roll off the surface instead of soaking in. Traditional DWR treatments often relied on PFC/PFAS-based chemicals, which are highly persistent in the environment. A PFAS-free treatment provides light water resistance while reducing long-term environmental impact and chemical persistence.
Reinforced Base: 420D Recycled Nylon
The bottom panel uses Bluesign-approved, 100% recycled 420D nylon for increased abrasion resistance. The higher denier (420D) fabric strengthens high-wear areas that frequently contact the ground or stroller frames, improving durability and structure under load.
It also features a PFAS-free DWR finish to help protect against spills and damp surfaces.
Secondary Panels: 210D Recycled Nylon
Additional structural panels use Bluesign-approved recycled 210D nylon with PFAS-free DWR treatment, balancing lightweight construction with everyday resilience.
Backpanel and Harness Mesh: Recycled Polyester
All mesh components are Bluesign-approved and made from 100% recycled polyester. This breathable mesh improves airflow while maintaining structural integrity in high-contact zones.
What Bluesign-approved Means
Bluesign approval goes beyond recycled content. It verifies that fabrics are manufactured under strict environmental and chemical management standards, including:
- Reduced harmful substance use
- Responsible water and energy consumption
- Safer working conditions
- Full supply-chain chemical transparency
This ensures the materials are not only durable but also responsibly produced.
