Kånken Original Backpack

Great pack. Beautiful color, sturdy design, very comfortable to wear. Little trouble fitting my water bottle in the side pocket when I have the pack full, though.

Hello! If I could, I would give your brand 1000 stars because you have truly made an excellent product. It’s so durable that I’ve gone through both the worst and the happiest moments with this backpack. Why do I say that? Because I bought this backpack in 2019, and now in 2026 it is still in very good condition. The stitching and zippers are still great. Only the leather parts have faded and worn slightly, but everything inside still looks almost new. It is truly worth the money

Perfect size (for airline hand luggage), fits a laptop, very handy pockets and very comfortable to wear or carry. It also washes well in the washing machine on a low wash.

I bought this bag for high school and it was absolutely amazing It Fitted my laptop perfectly and it had the most amazing amount of storage amazing for it if you're not sure to buy but you have a lot of budget quite expensive but will definitely worth it

I've had the Kanken for a few years now, & it still looks brand new. I love the way it zips open like a suit case. I did get the shoulder pads for it & they make it very comfortable to wear. I highly recomend getting the Kanken backpack.

15 years of use and I've finally retired the bag. HOLDS SO MUCH. Macbook Air 13" check. It literally holds * litre boxes of milk, I kid you not. Used them on my grocery runs all the time and hop on my bike. Use as backpack for travel in addition to carry-on, and you're set. Groceries, impromptu buys, fits it all. I've washed it so many times, the fabric softens, after all these years finally developed a couple of tiny holes where the fabric creases but doesn't affect functionality at all. Can't say enough about these Kanken bags. I've finally bought a replacement(s) in several different colours. But keeping this one as an everyday gym bag, throw in sneakers, towel, etc. Such a great backpack. Can't recommend enough.

I bought the classic Kånken in navy, and I’m really pleased with it. It doesn’t have a dedicated laptop compartment, so I slip my laptop into a protective sleeve first, and it fits nicely inside the main section. It’s sturdy, well-made, and the colour is exactly as pictured. I clean it from time to time with a wet rag, and lukewarm water. I’ve used it as one of my daily bags for more than two years, and even taken it travelling — it handles everything I throw in there (13" M2 MacBook in its sleeve, tablet, notebooks, bits and bobs) with no trouble. I’m aware it’s not recommended to carry a laptop due to the added weight, but it’s worked perfectly fine for me so far. The front pocket and side pockets are great for easy access to smaller items. Overall, it’s a dependable and stylish backpack that lives up to the Kånken name.

I bought this and used it for less than a Year and it lasted 6 months and got so dirty very disappointing I would not buy this again it did not wash off raven though I gave it to a dry cleaner

I loved kanken for years. They are so durable and so beautiful. Worth the money.

Bought last year for my son’s PreK class. The inside liner is completed shredded and falling apart. I have two other back packs that I purchased for my daughters 3 years ago and they are still in good shape. I think the quality has gone down.

The backpacks come in beautiful colors, but they tend to fade and develop white marks over time. The one that holds up best is the black one.

Die Tasche an sich ist super schön doch leider ist die Qualität des Stoffs nicht gut. Nach einigen Tagen reibt die Farbe leicht ab und ich finde innen könnte auch eine kleine Tasche zum verstauen sein. Ich habe mehr als 140€ für den individuellen Rucksack bezahlt und finde dafür ist er es nicht wert.

I like everythink on your design but I can’t decide which model is right for me. I need a medium size but at the same time has to be elegant . I want to use it for work therefore the backpack has to be comfortable and elegant bag .

Mine is 6 years old now and probably needs to be replaced but for Co text I use it EVERY day. It’s been a work bag, a day trip bag, laptop bag, nappy change bag, everything bag. The best purchase ever
