Special Pre-Order Event for Earth NASA Backpacks
CHIKYU Co., Ltd., a Tokyo-based company specializing in backpack design and manufacturing, is excited to announce a special pre-order event for its renowned Earth NASA backpacks. This event will take place at Book City Hiraso Tokushima from August 28 to August 30, 2026, and all are welcome to attend without prior reservation.
The Earth NASA backpack line features innovative design elements, including the use of TEMPAFORM®, a shock-absorbing material developed for NASA. Attendees can explore about 50 new models on display at this event, particularly focusing on those tailored for children, which combine style and functionality seamlessly.
Among the flagship products is the lightweight
Cosmos Filles model, specifically designed for girls. Weighing approximately 1,010 grams, this backpack has a depth of 12.5 cm and is constructed using Clarino EF material. The design takes inspiration from the cosmos, symbolizing harmony and the blossoming of a young girl as she encounters the world. Available in trendy color options such as Lilac x Pearl Lavender and Pink Beige x Pearl Beige, it also features a subtle gradient cosmos pattern that adds a unique charm. The classic Carmine color offers a timeless aesthetic while still incorporating the distinct pattern.
Another exciting product is the new
UNICA ANIMA model, designed in collaboration with WWF. This environmentally conscious backpack weighs about 1,230 grams and is crafted from Clarino Aqua Duo. The sales proceeds contribute to WWF Japan's conservation efforts. The design reflects a commitment to preserving the Earth’s diverse ecosystems and the creatures that inhabit it, which is especially resonant given that over 40,000 species face extinction threats according to IUCN 2025 data.
Furthermore, the new
YOLO model stands out with its asymmetrical shape and bold color combinations. It weighs around 1,140 grams and embodies the essence of individuality, underscoring the mantra “You only live once.” The multiple colorways invite children to express their unique personalities while ensuring comfort.
Each purchase comes with a special gift: a ¥3,000 Hiraso shopping voucher and exclusive Earth NASA backpack merchandise. This event provides the perfect opportunity for parents and their children to experience the weight and functionality of the backpacks in person.
CHIKYU Co., Ltd. began as a humble workshop in 1922 and has since evolved into a reputable brand focusing on quality products that respect both children and the environment. The recent rebranding from Ikeda Chikyu Co., Ltd. to CHIKYU Co., Ltd. emphasizes their mission to craft items that contribute positively to both the planet and the young users.
For further details on the 2027 lineup of backpacks, a free catalog can be requested through their official website. They encourage families to take the first step in preparing for the upcoming school year.
The Earth NASA backpack series is celebrated not only for its functionality and design but also for incorporating advanced technologies that support child development in a way that is gentle on the Earth. With a commitment to sustainability, CHIKYU continues to innovate, believing that each backpack carries a piece of a child's future.
