Kanken 15in Laptop Backpack

Amazing quality

Every year I buy this backpack for my daughter and she loves it. So a couple of years ago I started buying o e for me and they are amazing.

Good size

I purchased the 15” Laptop kanken. Excellent size, holds everything I need for work. My only issue is the material seems to show up a lot of dust/dirt which makes the bag look older than it is!

Not worth it.

i am appalled. i was walking to the bus stop like i would usually, when suddenly my bag straps snapped. it snapped. the shock left me standing there, gaping, unable to process what just happened. usually i rely on this bag to carry many heavy loads but today seemed to be an exception. when the rest of the bag hit the concrete, the zippers split open (not one, but TWO) leading it to leave a exceedingly large rip down the side of the bag. i was distraught. i was upset. i stood there, standing at the scene, staring at the bag whilst mourning the sight. it is such a great shame that such an expensive item that only lasted me 6 months, broke so simply and shortly. i am in great dismay and i will NEVER BUY FROM HERE AGAIN!

So much for such an expensive item

i bought this item a year ago and i have always relied on it to hold massive amounts of stuff and it always has until this dreadful morning. this bag snapped. it snapped. i fell over and scraped my knee, staying there for a couple seconds, recovering both physically and mentally from mourning this bag. i put the bag down and i noticed that the bag had a exceedingly large rip on the side. furthermore, it came to my attention that both of the zips had as a matter of fact been broken. I was devastated and appalled at how such an expensive item could have broken so simply. I then proceeded to throw it in the bin as it no longer mattered to me. it was dead to me. useless.

No water bottle sleeve

It is very roomy and holds a lot of things. It could use an additional outside pocket for keys or passport. The biggest problem is that there is no sleeve for a water bottle. In addition, the sleeve to use for sliding onto a luggage handle is really tight - almost impossible to slide on easily. I will not use this bag in the future - I now have a backpack that I really cannot use.

the best

I love my Kånken 15" laptop bag so much. I first purchased it using Christmas money while on a trip to Sweden when I was eight years old in 2013 and have used it as my schoolbag every single day for the past 11 years in addition to taking it on 20+ international and domestic trips. While it does have some very small holes from intensive use, it still functions perfectly normally and I would be bringing it to my freshman year in college if it were not for the fact that my new laptop does not fit (I bought the 17" to bring with me.) Seriously though, I have grown up with this bag and it's really worth the money.

Long lasting backpack

I bought my backpack 6 years ago and it’s still holding strong. It’s my go to travel backpack. It’s been to several national parks to several countries I’ve even used as a diaper bag since my husband wanted something more manly for him to carry. I’ve since bought 2 more for husband and my son. Will definitely buy more in the future.

I USEEE my backpacks, and used to have to buy about 1-2 a year because they would rip up and become unusable. I got my last one before freshman year of high school, and it lasted me until the end of sophomore year of college (almost 6 straight years of heavy use!!). It also CURED my back pain I'm not even joking. I'll never buy another brand of backpack ever again and I always recommend a fjallraven to my friends looking for a new backpack

Ox Red 15-inch laptop backpack

I am 5' 1', using this bag as a purse, work bag, and school bag. I do not find it too big, but I am not tall or petite, and I like big bags. Having the laptop padded section and the zipper inside the bag on the flap is wonderful. I had a classic Kånken, but I gave it away because it did not have the storage I needed that this 15-inch laptop backpack has. Also, I did not like the pastel color I chose. I am very happy with my purchase. Some people talk about the white streaks on the bags. I believe it may be the wax coating, which is normal. The laptop section is an excellent storage space when I don't carry a laptop or iPad. I removed the seat pad (but kept it) and used that space to separate some of my personal items.

Black Dye Issues

I bought the Kanken Laptop 15" in black and it was already faded in places where it was creased when I received it. I thought it was just dust but that wasn't the case. It's a decent bag otherwise, but it looks like it's 5 years old even though I've had it for under a month.
