FJÄLLRÄVEN Kånken Day Backpack - Sunstone Orange
Classic Kånken backpack in hard-wearing Vinylon fabric with a zip that opens the entire main compartment. Removable seat cushion, small front pocket, simple shoulder straps and handles at the top.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Straight backs are happy backs! Kånken was created as far back as 1978 to help prevent back problems among Swedish school children and quickly became a common sight at preschools and nature schools throughout the country. Today, 35 years later, Kånken has straightened millions of backs across the globe and has become one of Fjällräven's most beloved products.
This classic backpack is equally suited to journeys to and from school or work, as it is to trekking and travelling. The material is hard-wearing, lightweight Vinylon F fabric that is able to withstand dirt and wetness. The spacious main compartment has a large opening with a zip, which makes it easy to pack and unpack. It has two flat side pockets and a zipped pocket on the front, perfect for those bits and bobs that you want to keep close at hand.
The included PE foam seat cushion is stored in the interior back pocket where it prevents the contents of the backpack from poking against your back – and is always within reach for when you need to take a break and sit down, wherever you may be. The carrying system is simple but practical and consists of handles at the top and slender, adjustable shoulder straps. The logo on the front is reflective. It also has an address label inside the main compartment.

Fjällräven was founded in 1960 by Åke Nordin in Sweden to solve a common issue: back pain caused by poorly designed backpacks. As a teenager, Nordin created a wooden-framed backpack that evenly distributed weight, reducing strain on the back and shoulders. This innovation became the foundation of Fjällräven, which aimed to make carrying heavy loads more comfortable for outdoor enthusiasts. In 1978, the brand introduced the Kånken backpack to address rising back problems among Swedish schoolchildren. Its lightweight, ergonomic design quickly became a favorite, easing back pain and becoming an enduring symbol of functionality and style.
Today, Fjällräven is a global leader in backpack design, known for its timeless, durable, and practical bags like the Kånken, Mini Kånken, and travel-friendly options. Staying true to its roots, the brand emphasizes ergonomic innovation and sustainability, helping people carry their essentials with ease—whether in the city or the great outdoors.
