Kaahu began in Hawaii, where time moved slower and everything had meaning.
Now based in San Francisco, we create bold, functional bags from organic cotton & jute - each piece shaped by care, built to last, and designed to reflect the quiet strength of what you truly value.
A curated selection of the pieces that resonate most.
Organic Cotton & Jute
At Kaahu, we prioritize GOTS-certified organic cotton to protect our planet. By eliminating synthetic pesticides and GMOs, organic farming uses up to 91% less water and reduces CO2 emissions by nearly 46% compared to conventional cotton. Our choice ensures healthier soil, cleaner waterways, and a gentler touch for both the makers and you.
Our bags feature jute—the "Golden Fiber"—because it is one of the world's most carbon-negative materials. A single hectare of jute can absorb 15 tons of CO2 in just 120 days. Naturally pest-resistant and rain-fed, it requires zero pesticides and virtually no irrigation, making it a high-performance, low-impact powerhouse for a cleaner planet.
