Fjallraven Kanken Totepack, Frost Green

I was a little wary of ordering a Kanken off Amazon because I’d heard of people receiving pre owned bags instead of new or being sent bags that weren’t actually authentic. It was on a really good sale at the time that I purchased so I was a little worried that it was too good to be true. However when my bag arrived it was obviously brand new as it was still in its original packaging and in pristine condition! It’s authentic as far as I can tell but I really didn’t look that hard to be honest. It’s a great size with plenty of room for my 11 inch iPad, my kindle, and all my various daily necessities. I upgraded from the mini tote because I needed a little more room and this is perfect. It’s a little wider and deeper than the mini which allows me to keep my things more organized and accessible compared to the mini. The side pockets are too small to hold my 40 oz owala bottle so I bought the Kanken bottle pocket to go with the bag and it holds my bottle perfectly. It’s made of the same durable material as all the other Kankens. They hold up fantastic overtime and I’ve only ever switched because of a new style or needing more room. It’s fairly light depending on how you pack it. The straps can be a little stiff and uncomfortable at first but I’ve found they soften up over time. You can buy like padding for them. I use it as a daily bag and couldn’t be happier. Being able to change it from tote to back pack makes it super functional for almost any situation. If I could ask for one thing though it would be more dividers or pockets but it’s easily fixed with stuff I had at home.

The front pocket is a bit small but love the flexibility between back pack and shoulder bag.

Sometimes a purse just isn’t enough, but a tote is too inconvenient. At a kid’s soccer game, a day at the zoo, or out from day into evening and you need a jacket. You can carry your water bottle and a small umbrella in the exterior sleeves and all of those little extras, including your iPad in this bag! There is an internal padded sleeve - the padding is dense foam that can be removed to function as a seat pad. I added a small purse organizer to compensate for the lack of small pockets on the interior. The internal laptop sleeve is fronted by a second, shorter and elasticized pocket that I’ll use for that light jacket I’ll need for later. There is a large ID label on the front of the laptop sleeve, and as seen in the photo, a bold logo on the front. The big draw for me, after seeing a really cool gym mom with the ochre version, was the long shoulder straps that she was using to casually carry her bag in her shoulder. There are hand grips, and non-bulky, flat-woven shoulder straps can be quickly converted to a light backpack via a hardware-free design. Love it enough that I purchased a second! The second is a neutral, but I like it best as a pop of color when worn with casual wear.

I bought this to be an iPad Pro tote and it works perfectly. It has enough pockets for cables and accessories and keyboards. It’s so stylish and cute in. The color is beautiful.

I like the bag, it carries my book, large planner, pencil case, and a small cosmetic bag. The front fights my smaller wallet. The straps are okay, but there's no good place to put my phone or my keys since room is taken up by my wallet in the front and would get lost in the middle due to having no smaller pockets on the inside. The outside pockets are kinda useless to me since I have a large waterbottle and are too deep to easily grab my keys. The pink color is not as bright as the picture as well, it's more bubblegum with a orange undertone.

Love this bag so much if u want a backpack and tote bag all in one and love kanken, I recommend this to everyone!!

It is smaller than a backpack. It has good capacity and good pockets. My favorite thing is the color and the handle/straps.

GREAT bag! Great color, large enough for my laptop, all my stuff, plenty of pockets, easy to wipe-off material, and can be a backpack or tote.
