Fjallraven Kanken Backpack

The Legendary Fjällräven Kånken Backpack

Kånken’s History

Straight backs are happy backs! The Kånken backpack was introduced in 1978 to help prevent back problems in Swedish schoolchildren. It quickly became the most popular backpack in preschools and nature schools across the country. Today, 45 years later, Kånken has improved posture for millions of people worldwide and remains one of Fjällräven’s most beloved products. This classic and functional backpack is perfect for school, work, hiking, and travel.

Smart Storage & Organization

The main compartment features a wide zippered opening, allowing for easy access to your belongings. Additionally, it includes two flat side pockets and a zippered front pocket for organizing smaller essentials.

Durable & Functional Materials

Kånken is made from Vinylon F fabric, a lightweight yet durable material that repels dirt and moisture while drying quickly.

The simple yet practical carrying system includes top handles for hand-carrying and slim, adjustable shoulder straps, making it easy to wear as a backpack or tote bag.

Additional Features

Removable Foam Seat Pad – Stored in the inner back pocket, this soft foam pad ensures comfort and prevents the contents of the backpack from pressing against your back. It can be removed for use whenever you need a seat.
Reflective Fjällräven Logo – The front reflective logo enhances visibility in the dark, keeping you safe from passing cars.
Personalization Space – Inside the main compartment, there’s a dedicated area to write your contact details and name.
