LOVE the strength of this backpack.
I bought the one in Singapore, and the quality and strength of this backpack is AMAZING. I think the seat pad it comes with is very useful and helpful too. Overall, amazing design. It's fashionable, strong, and you can match it with almost anything. Please continue to make bore bags like this. Love y'all!

This really is the best backpack
About to buy my second one of these, I bought mine back in 2016 and it has come with me on every single trip abroad, been used as a daily bag through university, and now comes to work with me regularly. It's like a tardis fitting absolutely loads in, and the fact it opens all the way around means I can easily access everything inside! It's also much more aesthetically pleasing having thin straps, and by some magic seems to be better for my back than any other bag I've used! It's a bit worn and torn now but has lasted me YEARS and I really have used it for everything! I wish they were a bit more affordable but can't really complain when the quality is so good

Perfect backpack
I’ve had my last kanken for 8 years and have just bought a different colour. I’ve used it daily and it is still in excellent condition, the bags are durable, easy to clean and timeless. Well worth the price

Nice colors
I don’t know what I was expecting, but you can get better quality for your bucks than this. No support and material is not the best.

Worse
It turned white after the first day used, it really question my trust on “fjallraven has great quality and can be used for years.”

Great bag but not for a lifetime
My daughter’s school bag developed a whole in the bottom. The lifetime of use and repairs is not an accurate statement unfortunately. Loved the bag while it lasted though!
