Once you see it, you know it’s a Kipling! Our much-loved Monkey keychain has become a well-known icon of playful design, swinging from our bags worldwide. Cherished by fans and instantly recognisable, this little monkey has been with us from the start. Back then, in 1987, it all started with a trio of Antwerp designers reimagining the ways bags could be created. It was their shared love for The Jungle Book that inspired the innovation of adding a monkey keychain to each one.
Over the years, our monkeys have had a few makeovers, coming in different colours, poses, materials and even outfits. And did you know each time we add the furry monkey to a bag, it gets a new name? So, whether it’s your first one or your hundred-and-first, when you bag your next monkey keychain, you’re becoming part of an ever-growing club who are never without their Kipling – or its signature monkey keychains.
