Fjall Raven Kånken Classic Backpack
what parents are saying
Liked this bag but only had for a few days. It just was "easy access" to the essentials. You had to unbutton the strap and the the zipper was hard to get to. Study bag though and fabric was high quali (Apr 12, 2017)

Got this for my husband to use as a diaper bag and he loves it. It stores super flat when it isn’t needed which is something probably only I love about it. Feb 06, 2024

I only bought this bc I think it’s cute. I do use it occasionally as a light travel bag. I got rid of the seat pad because it took up the limited space & I never used it. The straps are uncomfortable. Oct 09, 2023

There is so much room to serve as a diaper bag and I love that the zipper fully opens, making it easy to access everything. Though, I did not realize that Kanken’s look dirty very quickly. Oct 06, 2023

My daughter loves this backpack. however, I think the water bottle pocket is too small in my opinion. Sep 04, 2023
Great backpacks for kids to travel with. Perfect to put toys, snacks, and games in for airplane or car rides. Have had mine for 10 years and it has held up perfectly. Jul 27, 2023

Not loving this so much. I thought I'd suit the boxy look but I don't and the bag isn't as sturdy as I'd like it to be therefore it doesn't really keep it's shape if you place heavy items. Mar 12, 2023

I love the look of this backpack. But it’s not the most comfortable to use and not many pockets are available. Feb 15, 2022

Just an average backpack with zero padding. The straps are so narrow you'll definitely get sore if there's any significant weight in there. At least the design is cute. Aug 16, 2021

I really love this bag pack. It is super light weight and roomy. The only downer is that after a few washes the color became faded. Please do not put in a washing machine! Sep 16, 2019

used as diaper bag for 2 years - held up great. the only reason I stopped is bc the straps are so uncomfortable and I need a bigger front and side pocket but all in all so great! Jul 11, 2019

Basic, but classic. It is smaller, though, and I was disappointed with the pockets on the side. I could barely squeeze my Klean Kanteen in there! Still, it’s functional and has that minimalist feel. Mar 15, 2019

I used this as our primary diaper bag and it was super versatile and well-made. It also doesn't scream "diaper bag" and my husband wasn't embarrassed to carry it either. Comes in a ton of colors! Jul 23, 2018

The perfect size bag for a weekend of kiddo stuff. We find packing their gear in its own bag helps when searching for missing items. Ease of access and a durable/great pack! Jul 16, 2023

This is our spare diaper bag and a great option to fit in the smaller storage compartment under our BOB jogging stroller. Bright colors get dirty easily though and this is handwash only. Aug 15, 2019

I got the medium size and it comes with a front pocket, open side pockets and the large compartment with slip in the back to organize extra things. It gets dirty very easily but is waterproof. Jan 25, 2019

One of my best purchases. We rarely use our larger diaper bag and rely on this for most of our daily outtings & more active activities like bike rides. It's the perfect size and easy to clean. Jul 25, 2017

I had this backpack before I got pregnant, but I think it's too big. I have never used it to put my child's stuff in it. I also don't like the idea of it. There are obviously better diaper bags. Jul 19, 2017
