Fjallraven Re Kanken Backpack - Black

A little pricey for what you get, but we’ll constructed. Roomy in the main compartment, but I prefer a couple pockets inside my bag for loose items like pens. It has one exterior pocket which has room for a couple smaller items, and then two slip pockets on the side. The side pockets for water bottles are pretty slim, especially if you have a lot in your bag or items that fit from one side to the next like a laptop. I have a couple water bottles that won’t fit at all. The laptop pocket is also very tight with the foam pad. I will need to remove the pad. I am pretty small at 5’ and not a bigger person, and the backpack is a bit smaller. I’m a teacher, so I need to carry books and folders along with my laptop, so this will be a tight squeeze this year.

Bought this for my daughter as a gift in the blue/teal colour. From a cosmetic and fashionable perspective the rucksack looks great. It is also made of good quality materials and should provide some longevity from wear and tear. Practically, I find it restrictive and the rucksack ia much smaller in size than I thought it would be. The backstraps are too fiddly to adjust and the maximum size seemed far too small even for a child when wearing a jumper and winter coat. The rucksack is fine for putting some A4 pads in for school but if you want to use it for a sleepover and pack clothes in it then you'll struggle to fit it all in compared to other general use rucksacks. Overall I'd say this rucksack is good from a fashion perspective, but otherwise poor value for what ... MoreBought this for my daughter as a gift in the blue/teal colour.

I have not used my backpack yet. I bought it fir next year s trip to Europe. We are going hand luggage only to avoid losses and because mature age and last time was hard with too much luggage.This little backpack weighs very little a nd will be my handbag for flights. I can fit water bottle, umbrella, pr light shoes, puffer vest, make up and creams, other handbag stuff.I think it won t drag on my shoulders and you can make it stand. I am considering buying strap pads available on line for extra comfort. I have two other soft foldable backpacks, may take one also.
