The main reason that they are so expensive, other than the quality, is that the price level in the scandinavic countries is a lot higher than in the us, due to the higher wage rates ☺️
The fjallraven brand is Swedish, and originally made for Swedish school children, not hikers like some are saying. The foam is meant to be used to set the bag on in the snow, and Sweden is a Scandinavian country, and therefor cold, and snowy :)
I really want the yellow one! It's so beautiful and you like 5sos and one direction?? Awesome HEHE and i low key hear nevershoutnever in the background (; hehe i love ur channel. x
Mine is $129 in Singapore . I want to get a kanken as ive heard of a place who sells Authentic kankens at only $30 ( my friend's recommendation ) but it is hard to believe as im sure it is a grade aaa bag ( inspired ) . Nobody would give a discount of $100 ! Any websites that i can find authentic and cheap kankens that ships to Singapore?
i love fjällräven , my sister has one and shes getting me one soon and im excited , i live in swedan and fjällräven is swedish, she has an apartment in uppsala sinse shes a student there, and there they have a fjällräven store, of course they sell more than just backpacks tho
+Hanna Nord it isn't bad english:) omgg i want a kånken soooo bad But i am going to get one this weekend a black or navy one, i am curious how they pronouce it in sweden ; fjällräven kånken I am from the netherlands:) and i have a friend who lives in sweden and i love sweden ahha
I just watched this video and the second Salvia Green Kanken video and just love your sense of humor. 😆 Love your real-ness, I actually carry a pad in my backpack too!
Hey thanks for the helpful video ! I recently ordered a kanken and im very concerned on when it is going to arrive. How long did urs take to arrive ? Thanks !
Hi , I wanted to know if your backpack was a 13" or a 15".Sorry for asking if you have said it in the video ,English isn't my native language so maybe I didn't understand 😅
sorry if this is too technical of a question but what was the width of the binder? because I'm freaking out that when i get one of these for school it won't fit my binders thanks!
Hey, thank you for your video. I want to purchase Kanken backpack in Yellow colour. I really don't mind if it's gonna be dirty. I mean...I can wash it) I have backpack in grey color, it's not Kanken but it's like my favourite bag, but I wanna add some colour in my life)
Love the backpack but the amazing user you put in your description has many comments saying the bags are fake and have clear evidence of the tags misspelling the name of the bag
I'm not sure about the size of the bag but can a huge 3" inch binder fit in a 13" inch bag like yours? I was wondering since I don't want to buy the bag and after, see that I can't use it. But if that can't fit, can a 15" inch bag can?
hey, just saying that a lot of people got fake kankens from amazon that are sold cheaper than the originals. the original would've cost $80USD but you got it for less. not saying fakes are bad really but just letting you know
is it waterproof? I just ordered it and it said 100% polyester but I've heard this brand makes water resistant backpacks but I don't know if it's every backpack I really want to know!!
Hi I was wondering the same thing. I've seen multiple answers online. After hoping through many comments, I'm guessing that it is water RESISTANT not water proof. So it would not completely repel water but it does resist water. I can imagine that if you got caught in a storm your stuff would be fine. Mine is arriving today so I will reply later if something changes. If I don't reply soon, assume that it is water resistant
Eve Head oh really? That's weird, in the uk the bags are only £65 on the website, which is roughly $80. I'm guessing that the further away you are from Sweden the more expensive it becomes?
The Yellow Kanken is gorgeous! I have the blue one and I love it!
I want to see how you wash a Fjallraven backpack video.
The main reason that they are so expensive, other than the quality, is that the price level in the scandinavic countries is a lot higher than in the us, due to the higher wage rates ☺️
Actually the foam thing is to sit on when you are outdoors and stuff!! Still not sure which color/model I want to get, though...
Lissa Salli and I let my sisters rip it up! 😯
Lissa Salli do you sit on the foam or the backpack lolol
Yep
The fjallraven brand is Swedish, and originally made for Swedish school children, not hikers like some are saying. The foam is meant to be used to set the bag on in the snow, and Sweden is a Scandinavian country, and therefor cold, and snowy :)
Yes, but they actually do backpacks for hiking, camping and mountaineering too.
Interesting fact,... The foam is actually used as a cushion to sit on!😊. Great backpack! Thx for showing
I really want the yellow one! It's so beautiful and you like 5sos and one direction?? Awesome HEHE and i low key hear nevershoutnever in the background (; hehe i love ur channel. x
A kånken is like 70-80 dolkars here in sweden, so 50 dolkars is really cheep for that bag
And the bigger sizes are about 100+ dollars
same in Germany
Mine is $129 in Singapore . I want to get a kanken as ive heard of a place who sells Authentic kankens at only $30 ( my friend's recommendation ) but it is hard to believe as im sure it is a grade aaa bag ( inspired ) . Nobody would give a discount of $100 ! Any websites that i can find authentic and cheap kankens that ships to Singapore?
on the official website they're like $170 lol
alex really? I went on the official website not too long ago and it was $80 for me
I love your tumblr! Def subscribing (:
Thank you so much !
any bright coloured bag will get dirty
Bitch let's be real any backpack, regardless of the color, can obviously get dirty 😂👊
Aldrick Espinosa black is the only color that can hide 50% dirtiness from your backpack, on the last day of school 😂
i love fjällräven , my sister has one and shes getting me one soon and im excited , i live in swedan and fjällräven is swedish, she has an apartment in uppsala sinse shes a student there, and there they have a fjällräven store, of course they sell more than just backpacks tho
I luv kånken ^^ is pretty funny how you guys prononce it all ( sorry bad english, as i said. im swedish and im likeee 12 .-. )
+Hanna Nord it isn't bad english:) omgg i want a kånken soooo bad
But i am going to get one this weekend a black or navy one, i am curious how they pronouce it in sweden ; fjällräven kånken
I am from the netherlands:) and i have a friend who lives in sweden and i love sweden ahha
I'm finnish😌
mae I’ve seen that it’s pronounced as feeyahlrahven kawnken
Yes they are very popular in Sweden, like Eastpak and Jansport in the US.
Ahh man, i just saw this video after i posted a whats in my Fjallraven bag- and am now wishing I had the yellow-so much more exciting than the black!
I just watched this video and the second Salvia Green Kanken video and just love your sense of humor. 😆 Love your real-ness, I actually carry a pad in my backpack too!
I've watched this like x7 times.. Subbed and liked, haha.
Thank you!
Your backpack is so cute! Loved this video! :)
Is this the Classic version ? Like It !!
I just ordered one! thanks for the review, i was on the fence but i needed to know it was worth it ^^
I loved this video, it really helped me decide to buy this one backpack in particular, so thank you so much for doing this :)
+Cris Coleman you are welcome!
i love your friend in the background omg
I'll buy the black one for next year and I already ordered the mini pink one☺️I am sooooooo excited
just subbed! you're such a lovely person! love your rucksack! xx
The backpack is originally made for hikers and the foam thing is to sit on
No!! Not these backpacks. These were originally made for school kids.
I just brought the mini yellow one of these I'm so excited! 😂
is that the warm yellow or the orange kanken?
Omg I really need one of these, they are so cute.😁😁
sky blue, or warm yellow?
i’m getting mine in like a few weeks and i need a collr
the yellow kanken is _always_ out of stock lmao. i have a black one, and it's so nice. surprisingly, it still gets tons of stains on it.
Is this a medium sized backpack or the small?
I love this video! Subbed😀 I can't wait for mine to come in a few days
hii nice vid c: is this the big size or just the normal one?
I'm not sure if this is correct but the big one is the normal sized one I think !
How do u do the straps for the non mini backpack
im not sure whether this is a personal preference or not, but are you supposed to remove the foam padding inside?:o
+Jasmine A I saw that she had removed hers and I was just wondering about that :P Is it really a necessity?
+Jasmine A thanks so much !c: ill decide whichever is more comfortable for me
I don't think you are to remove the padding in the back, since on the fjällräven website it's 9 euros to buy another one.
M E G U M I N you aren’t supposed to but I guess u could if you want?? It’s a sitting pad
which seller did you buy it from like i want to make sure mine would be authentic
Hey thanks for the helpful video ! I recently ordered a kanken and im very concerned on when it is going to arrive. How long did urs take to arrive ? Thanks !
How long did it take to order?
if you get just yellow is it this colour or like the orce colour or the lemon one??
I don't know what to buy black or warm yellow? help me!
Hi , I wanted to know if your backpack was a 13" or a 15".Sorry for asking if you have said it in the video ,English isn't my native language so maybe I didn't understand 😅
its so cute! really want to get one
sorry if this is too technical of a question but what was the width of the binder? because I'm freaking out that when i get one of these for school it won't fit my binders thanks!
Yes, the standard of living in Scandinavia is higher than say the UK and the US.
When I told my mom I wanted this backpack really badly she replied with,”BUT ITS SOOOO TINY!!!!!!”
Awesome video! It was lovely
is it comfortable to wear and so i am an incoming freshman i was wondering how much school supplies do you think you could fit in there
Yes it is. And check out my newest video because I tell how big it is in size and I show how much you can fit in it.
ok thank you for that info and i love youtuber that reply to comment very quickly
hi im an upcoming sophomore student and i was just curious how many 1 inch 3 ring binder would you think fit in a normal kanken backpack?
Probably 3 or 4
I have the same one! Mine came in 2 days

Hey, thank you for your video. I want to purchase Kanken backpack in Yellow colour. I really don't mind if it's gonna be dirty. I mean...I can wash it) I have backpack in grey color, it's not Kanken but it's like my favourite bag, but I wanna add some colour in my life)
Love the backpack but the amazing user you put in your description has many comments saying the bags are fake and have clear evidence of the tags misspelling the name of the bag
Hi Lauren! I just recently bought a light pink kanken backpack for school, and I was wondering how you would recommend cleaning it? thanks:-)
***** Thanks:)
Is it a large or a medium
I'm not sure about the size of the bag but can a huge 3" inch binder fit in a 13" inch bag like yours? I was wondering since I don't want to buy the bag and after, see that I can't use it. But if that can't fit, can a 15" inch bag can?
The classic bag is actually 15" Well it does fit my 15" MacBook pro perfectly and it can fit like 3 binders with it!
What size is this?? The classic?
+Nayza Martinez yes it's the classic
Is this the classic size?? :)
Lily Barron yes
I've got purple one😍 It's not from amazon, cause I can buy it from Finland I live there
the ones on amazon are fake but yours might be real?
Can you fit a binder in this thing?
Two and more actually!
hey, just saying that a lot of people got fake kankens from amazon that are sold cheaper than the originals. the original would've cost $80USD but you got it for less. not saying fakes are bad really but just letting you know

Has anyone had problems with pens leaking and staining the bag?

IDK Hayam nope:)
Yes 5'4 sister!
I have the same kånken as you!!
It's not that dirty it's because you got a light backpack color
wht size?
Julia Evans classic
How many inches is it ?
15 x 10 x 5 inches, if you get the kind she has ( The Classic )
My dad got me mine for $80
i paid $80 for my bag
I bought mine for $80 😢😢😢😢
who watch this in 2017??
i paid 100 € 😭😭
on the actual website it's like $110 so that's really cheap for one and it might be fake since it's so cheap
Eve Head oh really? That's weird, in the uk the bags are only £65 on the website, which is roughly $80. I'm guessing that the further away you are from Sweden the more expensive it becomes?
Eve Head she has the classic backpack size which runs for $80, you're thinking of the laptop size which is $110.
heyy i really like ur videos want to do a collab:))
