MAIKA makes totes, bags, pouches and home goods from recycled cotton canvas and vegan leather, designed in a California studio and sewn by a partner factory in India.
The detail that shapes every order is the one-code limit: the free-shipping code for carts of $85 or more cannot sit alongside any other promotion, so a percentage code and free delivery are an either-or choice.
MAIKA sorts its bags by use, with Essential, Commuter, Project, Carryall and Market totes, Lunch + Pie totes, crossbody bags, backpacks and Creator Packs. Smaller pieces include pouches, mini totes, fanny packs, Loop totes, mini cubes, cardholder wallets, wine totes, buckets and tea towels.
The brand has released collaborations with Pioneer Square Press, Winter Water Factory and Uwila Warrior, and it keeps a Greater Good Pledge page. Packing is handled by GHE Fulfillment, a partner that hires adults who have intellectual or developmental disabilities, and each product carries a one-year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship.

Does MAIKA offer free shipping?
Yes. Standard US delivery is free from $85, but only when the site's shipping code is entered, and that code rules out every other promotion.
How long does MAIKA shipping take?
Orders leave in 2-3 business days by UPS or USPS, then generally take 3-5 business days to arrive within the US.
What is MAIKA's return policy?
The formal refund policy allows 15 days from the order date for unused, sealed items; buyers pay return postage and sale items are final.
What payment methods does MAIKA accept?
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover and PayPal are all accepted when paying for a tote or pouch.
More about shopping at MAIKA
Gift cards
MAIKA e-gift cards arrive by email with no processing fees, though no discount can be used to buy them.
International
Most countries are served, with Canada taking 7-14 business days and other destinations 3-6 weeks; duties and import taxes may be added.
Warranty
A one-year warranty against defects in material or workmanship means MAIKA repairs or replaces a faulty piece at no charge.
At MAIKA the coupon field only shows up once the cart moves into checkout, so nothing gets typed on the product or cart pages.
Because the shop takes a single promo code per order, shoppers with a cart above $85 have to pick between the free-shipping code and any percentage code on offer.
Codes will not lower the price of an e-gift card, and anything bought on sale is final, so a discounted sale bag cannot be sent back later.
Optional Route+ protection appears at the same step; it covers damage, loss or theft and is an add-on, not a discount, so leaving it unticked does not affect the code.

If your MAIKA code doesn't work
Minimum order: "Free standard US shipping on orders of $85+" needs an order of at least $85.
Exclusions: Discounts cannot be used to buy gift cards; sale items are final sale.
One code per order: Only one promo code per order; codes cannot be combined.
Where to enter it: Add items to the cart and go to checkout; a field for the coupon code appears during checkout.
MAIKA's own pages document one Black Friday / Cyber Monday holiday sale, a 30% off everything event in 2020 that ran through November 30.
Outside codes, the lasting value sits in the product terms: the one-year warranty covers repair or replacement, and the FAQ says a return that misses the window may still earn a gift card.
Orders are packed by GHE Fulfillment, which employs adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, so every bag shipped supports that work.
