Perfect for walking, work & overnight trips
I adore this bag. I bought Forest Green, it's deep pine green, true to the colour shown. I bought it mainly because I was doing a walking challenge. I spent ages looking around and I'm very happy with my choice. For walking it's comfortable and spacious with a good number of sections. I'm 165cm, medium frame and it sits comfortably on my back. It's light when empty. I now use it every day for work, carrying my laptop, lunch, water, book etc. I've also used it for overnight stays and it's a perfect size and swallow up everything I need. I use a packing cube for my clothes which means i can fit loads in. It still looks brand new despite loads of use and is smart and neat. Love!

Good price/performance, small laptop sleeve.
The laptop sleeve is JUST big enough for a Thinkpad 15, my other MSI Gaming 15" laptop that has "a butt" does not fit comfortably. If your laptop is thicker or has larger-than-normal dimensions, I'd look for an alternative. Other than that, the construction is high quality and looks durable. ~7 months use both in EDC and sporadic trail walking and still line new! The stretchy water pockets are great, in conjunction with the strap it holds a 750L insulated bottle and/or a 1.5L PET bottle firmly and securely.

KEB Women Regular= Best ever!
I now have two pair of the Keb women’s trousers. The regular shape/design fits me like a glove. I’ve worn them hiking a few times now. So far they have not stretched out. They are tough, and hod up well to hiking, snowshoeing, and crawling around on rocks. I’ll be wearing the brown KEBs as a campground host this month. I have used the side ventilation zippers each time I’ve worn them and it works well to keep cool in the desert.

Everything you could want from a rucksack
Love this rucksack. Spacious pockets but also useful small pockets in front bit. Handy sunglasses / phone pocket on top. Able to fit quite a lot in, but then also the bag doesn't look strange if you're only carrying a few bits as you are able to adjust the straps to make it a bit slimmer. Used it for the past week hiking in the Pyrenees and it was amazing, also figured a way to strap my hiking poles on, and the elasticated bit really useful for tucking my top into when adding and removing layers! I look forward to using this bag for uni and work, and seeing how it holds up over time, but I am confident it will do me well! and I will return to fjallraven for any future rucksack needs!

Easy to Love.
This is a great bag, which I say as someone who is extremely picky about backpacks. I have a tendency to immediately notice when I feel like something isn't designed right. Or when something is, in my opinion, over-designed, that too. Stuff like that will bug me to no end, and has resulted in a ton of bags being donated or returned over the years. This one? I can't find a single thing to complain about. The zippers fly, the material feels really sturdy. Just-Enough organization and plenty of space. The bag also, owing to it's shape, has a tendency to stay compact when empty, but easily expands out when more stuff gets packed in. Also, the cords up front stay nice and taught to the front of the bag - makes it so that they're not prone to snagging on things. I really think this is a hidden gem of Fjallraven's offerings. Can't recommend it enough. I use this one as my dad bag. For hiking and work, I use an old Fjallraven Keb 30. And I love everything about that pack, but the Skule really makes me think about using it for (nearly) all my needs. I'm happy every time I go to use it, it's quietly perfect.

Good backpack for daily use
Good backpack for daily use that I have been using for a year in Spain, only in heavy rain should I use a waterproof bag because it filters and accumulates inside, very good quality of materials, it is comfortable all year round

Not too big for petite traveler!
I bought the Skule 28 in Mustard at the Hyundai Mall when my shoulder was aching from my leather handbag when I was travelling around Korea. It fit all my solo traveler necessities like powerbank, reusable water bottle, extra clothes. It was not too huge for my small frame and very easy to carry all day. I stuffed my jacket in the bungee cords in front as well as my cap.

Sturdy, confidence inspiring backpack
I spent ages choosing a new backpack. I had only recently bought a new one, from a brand that USED to guarantee their products, but no longer do, and surprise surprise, it broke the first weekend I used it. The Skule 28 though, seems well made, and it was important to me that the website describes it as built for a life time of use - I want it to last! It feels like it will. It feels well made, and is very comfortable to wear. I also love that it has chest and hip straps - It makes me believe that it really IS designed to be filled with stuff and carried. I have only used it for day trips thus far so haven't needed to check out its FULL capacity and the need for those straps BUT they inspire confidence that, at heavier levels of use, not only will it hold up well, but, I will not hurt my shoulders!
