Why Bōken?
Bōken (冒険) means "Adventure" in Japanese. We believe becoming a parent doesn't mean giving up your active lifestyle. Our bags were designed by parents, for parents who refuse to choose between style and function.

What Parents Are Saying
"I've been using the Bōken for three months — with my toddler and to the office. When I switch to tote mode, colleagues have no idea it's a 'baby bag'. Highly recommend for any style-conscious mom."
New York, NY
"Got the Hip Pack Slate for quick outings. Fits phone, keys, a couple diapers and snacks. Nothing rattles around. Bought a second one for my wife."
Austin, TX
"Took it on vacation with two kids — four flights, two countries. Holds an astonishing amount for its weight. The material stayed clean and odour-free throughout."
