Customer Reviews Fjällräven Kanken

Too small for a daily backpack for my high school aged daughter

the color is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for, but it's quite thin and flimsy and the material it's made out of feel quite cheap, I was expecting a way better quality backpack tbh.

Super cute, well made, simple and modern. Love that it's sustainable. However, the one issue I can't get passed is the straps. They are inadequate, cheap, and quite frankly, a cop out. The backpack can hold substantial weight (text books for example), but the straps then dig into your shoulders. It's actually very disappointing to pay this much only to have a major component of the bag turn out to be garbage. Also, if you adjust the straps smaller, there is no place to tuck in the excess straps at the bottom so they just stick out. Tying them doesn't really work either; too stiff.

the backpack looked amazing! It seemed to be brand new but there was an orange spot that was not shown to have been there in the photos. This orange dot ruins the bag.

This bag is small. I didn’t want to believe reviews said it fit more than it seemed and because my daughter was so excited to get one like her friend had in Germany. It cannot fit her binder and a very full lunch box or her binder and a water bottle in the side compartment. She is still deciding but I think it’s going to be incredibly annoying and at this price she really needs to use it for more than one year. If you need to carry anything wide, better measure. Cute though.

It's a great size bag for weekends with a toddler- I can easily stash water, snacks, extra clothing, toys, and it's easy to carry and access everything. However for travel, when I'm actually wearing the backpack, I think the straps are pretty uncomfortable, and wish I bought a different bag (especially at this outrageous price).

The straps are not truly adjustable because of the snap at the top. I couldn’t use it.

This bag does not hold up well for the price. After a few uses the brand label is very faded, straps are twisting, and the cheap material of the bag is very worn. Definitely not the value I was expecting for the cost.

I have always heard such great things about this brand but when I received my backpack I was very disappointed! These bags are expensive and what I received is no where worth the price! The straps are so rough and stiff that I'm sure it would not be comfortable to wear in hot and humid Florida which is what I bought it for. I'm returning it and looking for something better.

This is clearly a mini backpack when the description is the regular backpack.

The open space is great. I bought the padded straps to go with it . Great material. No issues

Beautiful backpack. I like how the zippers open up all the way. The straps are comfortable as long as the backpack is not overly filled. So many colors to choose from. Also really like the fluorescent logo.

Great bag for everyday use

Classic simple backpack. The size is spot on. The emblem is reflective. The side pockets are on the small side. The straps are not padded.

So comfortable and fits so much! Also very durable, high quality backpack!

It was the perfect size for storage of art supplies

This is a very sturdy back pack. It would fit a 13” laptop and essentials comfortably. It’s a smidge smaller then I thought it would be but I am happy with the purchase nonetheless.

So glad I caught this on sale for 47.99. Great price, fast shipping, love the kanken line

This is my daughter's second Fjallraven Kanken backpack. She asked for the Clay one for Christmas. Very nice backpack!

Right size, excellent quality

Perfect size and style.

Love this backpack. I love the shape because rounded backpacks tend to bend books and papers but the shape of this keeps books and notebooks flat. I love how much it can hold- I can go on a hike, a day trip to Disneyland, afternoon at the park... it can carry everything I need and more! I also love that the zipper goes all of the way around making it easy to open and pack.

Super cool

I’ve been looking at this backpack for awhile and initially thought it would be too small. I was wrong …. it was perfect and carried everything I needed for a recent vacation.

love the ochre color!
