PENDLETON × PEANUTS Collaboration Collection Is Here!

Hello!

I’m Seki, the store manager at FITTWO, an outdoor specialty store in Ueno, Tokyo!

Today, I’d like to introduce a special collaboration between PENDLETON, the iconic American brand known for its outdoor-inspired designs, and PEANUTS, the beloved series featuring Snoopy and his friends.

On August 7, 2026, the highly anticipated PENDLETON × PEANUTS collaboration collection was released!

The theme of this collection is the Beagle Scouts, led by Snoopy as they explore the great outdoors with Woodstock and their friends.

PENDLETON’s signature Native American-inspired patterns are combined with the cheerful Beagle Scouts, creating a special collection that perfectly blends PENDLETON’s warm, timeless aesthetic with the playful charm of Snoopy.

The collection includes a variety of items such as room shoes, rugs, chair mats, kitchen mats, cushion covers, and mugs.

These items are perfect not only for adding a touch of personality to your home but also for use at the campsite or inside your car.

In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the PENDLETON × PEANUTS collaboration collection!

What Makes the PENDLETON × PEANUTS “Beagle Scouts” Collection Special?

One of the biggest highlights of this collaboration is the combination of PENDLETON’s traditional Native American-inspired patterns and the PEANUTS Beagle Scouts.

Within PENDLETON’s sophisticated and timeless patterns, you’ll find Snoopy and his friends wearing their iconic scout hats.

Some items feature Snoopy front and center, while others incorporate him more subtly into the overall pattern. This makes the collection easy for adults to incorporate into their everyday lives without feeling overly playful.

Of course, this collection is perfect for PEANUTS fans, but it’s also a great choice for PENDLETON fans and anyone who loves outdoor-inspired style.

Inspired by the refreshing coolness of a limestone cave, it’s the perfect T-shirt for summer.

Available in Black and several other color options.

Price: ¥16,500 (tax included)

Hello! I’m Seki, the manager of FITTWO, an outdoor shop in Ueno, Tokyo!

COTOPAXI has introduced the brand-new EMPACKABLE Series for the Fall/Winter 2026 season!

The collection includes two models: EMPACKABLE 16L DAYPACK and EMPACKABLE 3L SLING.

Both bags are designed to be lightweight, compact, and packable, making them perfect for travel, outdoor adventures, and everyday use. In addition to classic colors like Black, the collection also features COTOPAXI’s signature Del Día colorways.

In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the new EMPACKABLE Series!

What is COTOPAXI?

COTOPAXI is an outdoor brand founded in Utah, USA.

Guided by its mission, “Gear For Good,” the company is committed not only to creating high-quality outdoor gear but also to supporting environmental sustainability and helping communities in need.

By incorporating recycled materials into many of its products, COTOPAXI reduces environmental impact while delivering bags that combine playful designs with outstanding functionality.

Key Features of the EMPACKABLE Series

The biggest advantages of the EMPACKABLE Series are its lightweight design, packability, and everyday practicality.

Both models can be folded into their front pocket, making them excellent secondary bags for travel, hiking, camping, and other outdoor activities.

EMPACKABLE 16L DAYPACK

• Capacity: 16L
• Dimensions: 51 × 31.5 × 23.75 cm
• Weight: 227 g

An Ultra-Light Daypack Perfect for Travel

With a practical 16-liter capacity and weighing only 227 g, this daypack is lightweight enough for women, smaller users, and even children to carry comfortably.

When not in use, it packs neatly into its own front pocket, making it an ideal companion as a travel backup bag.

Simple and Functional Storage

The main compartment features a drawcord closure, allowing you to quickly open and close the bag while providing easy access to your gear.

The main compartment has a clean, single-compartment design with an internal divider along the back panel for better organization.

It also includes a hook-and-loop attachment point and a hydration hose port, making the pack hydration-system compatible.

A hydration system allows you to carry a water reservoir inside the backpack and drink through a hose without removing the pack. This feature is especially useful for hiking, trekking, and other outdoor activities where staying hydrated on the move is important.

Convenient Exterior Pockets

The front features a zippered pocket, which doubles as the bag’s storage pouch. Simply turn the pocket inside out to pack the entire backpack into itself for compact storage.

Stretch mesh pockets on both sides provide convenient storage for water bottles, folding umbrellas, and other essentials.

Comfortable to Carry

The lightweight shoulder straps are made with breathable mesh, providing excellent ventilation for enhanced comfort.

Each shoulder strap also features a stretch mesh pocket for small accessories, along with an adjustable sternum strap for improved stability while carrying.

A daisy chain at the bottom of the pack allows you to attach carabiners or other accessories, making it easy to customize the bag to suit your needs.

Perfect for Travel

A luggage pass-through loop on the back allows the backpack to be securely attached to the handle of a rolling suitcase. Pack it away while traveling, then unfold it whenever you need extra carrying space for souvenirs or additional gear.

EMPACKABLE 3L SLING

• Capacity: 3L
• Dimensions: 41.5 × 18.75 × 13.75 cm
• Weight: 170 g

A Lightweight 3L Sling for Everyday Adventures

The 3L capacity is just right for carrying your everyday essentials such as a smartphone, wallet, and portable charger. Weighing only 170 g, it’s incredibly lightweight and ideal for travel, festivals, sightseeing, or everyday city use.

More Storage Than You’d Expect

The sling features a simple single-compartment design, but its generous depth provides surprisingly spacious storage for its compact size.

A zippered front pocket provides quick access to small items and also serves as the bag’s built-in storage pouch, allowing the sling to pack into itself just like the daypack.

Outdoor-Inspired Design

A front daisy chain lets you attach a carabiner or other accessories, giving the bag a functional outdoor look while allowing you to personalize it.

If you prefer to travel light while keeping your everyday essentials close at hand, the EMPACKABLE 3L SLING is an excellent choice.

Conclusion | The EMPACKABLE Series: Perfect for Travel, Outdoor Adventures, and Everyday Use

The new COTOPAXI EMPACKABLE Series combines everything you could want in a versatile bag: lightweight construction, compact storage, and a packable design.

Whether you need a travel backup bag, a lightweight companion for outdoor adventures, or a practical everyday bag, the EMPACKABLE Series is ready for the job. You can also enjoy the unique, one-of-a-kind color combinations found in the Del Día Collection.

If you’re looking to travel light or want a compact bag that’s easy to pack for your next trip, this series is an excellent choice.

We invite you to visit our store to experience the comfortable fit, practical size, and the unique charm of the Del Día colorways in person!

Hello from FITTWO, the outdoor shop in Ueno!

Today, we’re introducing the TRAILBLAZER 30, the best-selling backpack from Salomon.

This popular model, which sadly disappeared from the market a few years ago, has finally made its long-awaited return.

With improved carrying comfort and breathability, along with updated storage features and a refreshed design, the new TRAILBLAZER 30 has evolved into a versatile backpack that excels in everything from day hikes and travel to commuting and everyday use.

If you’re looking for a backpack for hiking or searching for a versatile 30L bag that works just as well for daily life, this guide is for you.

TRAILBLAZER 30 Specifications

With a 30L capacity, the TRAILBLAZER 30 is ideal not only for day hikes, but also for overnight trips and everyday use.

Its lightweight construction and user-friendly design make it a highly versatile backpack that adapts to a wide range of activities.

Features Designed for Exceptional Carrying Comfort

Lightweight and Durable Nylon Construction

The main body is made from lightweight yet highly durable nylon.

Its soft, flexible construction naturally conforms to the amount of gear you’re carrying, ensuring a comfortable fit throughout the day.

Breathable Back Panel and Shoulder Harness

The back panel and shoulder straps feature highly breathable mesh materials.

In addition, the textured 3D construction creates airflow channels that help reduce heat buildup and moisture, providing lasting comfort even during extended wear.

Harness System for a Secure Fit

The TRAILBLAZER 30 is equipped with a shoulder harness, chest strap, and waist belt to help distribute weight evenly and reduce fatigue when carrying heavier loads.

• Chest strap: Adjustable and removable
• Waist belt: Fixed design
• Buckles: Easy to fasten and release with minimal effort

A Complete Look at the TRAILBLAZER 30 Storage Features

Wide-Opening Main Compartment

The main compartment features a full-zip opening, making it easy to see and access your gear.

The wide opening allows you to quickly pack and unpack clothing, outdoor equipment, and other essentials.

When the side compression straps are secured, they help prevent the zipper from opening too far and keep your belongings safely in place.

Hydration-Compatible Design for Easy Access to Water

Inside the back panel is a stretch pocket designed to hold a hydration reservoir.

The drinking tube can be routed through the dedicated opening, allowing you to stay hydrated without stopping while you’re on the move.

Top Accessory Pocket

A convenient top pocket provides quick access to small essentials such as your smartphone, keys, or wallet.

Frequently used items are always within easy reach.

Stretch Bottle Pockets on Both Sides

Both sides of the pack feature highly stretchable mesh pockets.

They easily accommodate larger water bottles and lie flat against the backpack when not in use, maintaining a clean profile.

Large Front Stash Pocket

By releasing the buckle at the top front of the pack, you can access a spacious front stash pocket.

It’s perfect for quickly storing a jacket, rainwear, or even a helmet.

Because you can access this pocket without opening the main compartment, it’s especially useful while you’re on the move.

Convenient Waist Belt Pockets

Each side of the waist belt includes a dedicated pocket:

• One side: Stretch mesh pocket
• One side: Zippered pocket

These pockets are ideal for storing snacks, earbuds, lip balm, and other small essentials you want to keep close at hand.

While inheriting the signature toe protection technology that defines the NEWPORT series, the WHISPER features a slimmer upper and sole design, creating a more streamlined silhouette tailored for women’s feet.

Key Features of the WHISPER

• KEEN’s signature toe protection helps shield your toes from impacts
• Lightweight construction designed specifically for women
• Secure, comfortable fit that supports the entire foot
• Can be worn throughout spring, summer, and fall when paired with socks
• A versatile design that combines the best features of sandals and sneakers

Here’s a quick weight comparison:

• NEWPORT H2: Approximately 310g
• WHISPER: Approximately 280g

Thanks to its lighter weight, the WHISPER has remained a long-time favorite for those seeking all-day comfort and easy wearability.

Comparing the WHISPER LITE with the Original WHISPER

A Lighter, More Sporty Design

The WHISPER LITE retains the core design philosophy of the original WHISPER while introducing a more athletic and refined appearance.

The updated sole design features a sleeker profile, creating a cleaner and more streamlined silhouette from the side.

In addition, the redesigned upper reduces the amount of exposed foot, resulting in an improved sense of fit and stability.

While maintaining the performance expected from a sports sandal, the WHISPER LITE offers a stylish look that pairs effortlessly with everyday outfits.

KEEN’s Signature Toe Protection Remains Unchanged

When you think of KEEN, one feature immediately comes to mind: its signature toe protection design.

Of course, the WHISPER LITE continues to feature this iconic KEEN technology.

Whether you’re exploring rocky trails, playing by the river, or enjoying a camping trip, the protective toe bumper helps shield your feet from unexpected impacts. It’s also a reassuring feature for everyday wear.

Surprisingly Lightweight Comfort

One of the biggest highlights of the WHISPER LITE is its exceptionally lightweight design.

Thanks to the use of lightweight materials in both the upper and sole, the WHISPER LITE offers a noticeably lighter feel compared to other KEEN sandals:

• NEWPORT: Approximately 310g
• WHISPER: Approximately 280g
• WHISPER LITE: Approximately 215g

This makes the WHISPER LITE one of the lightest sport sandals in KEEN’s lineup.

The outsole also contributes to the weight reduction by strategically placing rubber only where it’s needed, achieving an excellent balance of lightweight performance and reliable grip.

Key Functional Upgrades

New Stretch Mesh Upper

While the original WHISPER uses a polyester upper, the WHISPER LITE features a stretch mesh upper that enhances both comfort and performance.

This upgrade provides several benefits:

• Easier step-in comfort
• Improved fit and flexibility
• Softer feel against the skin
• Enhanced breathability
• Faster drying performance

The quick-drying design makes the WHISPER LITE ideal for waterside activities and ensures all-day comfort even during hot summer weather.

Improved Ease of Wear

In addition to the new stretch mesh upper, the position of the heel pull tab has also been redesigned.

This update makes the sandals easier to slip on and off, providing an even smoother wearing experience.

Whether you’re using them for everyday activities, travel, or outdoor adventures where frequent on-and-off wear is common, the improved convenience is a welcome upgrade.

Cushioning Remains Exceptionally Comfortable

Despite its lighter weight, the WHISPER LITE doesn’t compromise on comfort.

Just like the original WHISPER, it offers excellent cushioning designed to reduce fatigue, even during long walks.

It provides the stability and confidence of a sneaker while minimizing the instability often associated with sandals.

Sizing Guide

How to Choose the Right Size for WHISPER LITE

The WHISPER LITE is available in sizes 22.5 cm to 26.0 cm in 0.5 cm increments.

After trying them on, we found that the WHISPER LITE offers a slightly roomier fit compared to the original WHISPER.

We recommend choosing your usual shoe size. However, if you have narrow feet, trying them on before purchasing may help you find the perfect fit.
