FAQs

What sizes are available for Fjällräven Kånken bags?

Fjällräven Kånken bags come in three sizes: the Kånken Mini (7L, ideal for children or minimalists), the Kånken Classic (16L, suitable for daily use or school), and the Kånken Laptop (available in 13", 15", or 17", designed for work or study). Each size is balanced for both style and functionality.

Are Fjällräven Kånken bags waterproof?

Made with water-resistant Vinylon F fabric, Kånken bags repel light moisture but are not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, use a rain cover to keep the contents dry.

How do I clean my Fjällräven Kånken bag?

Hand wash your Kånken with lukewarm water, a mild detergent and a soft brush. Avoid using a washing machine in order to maintain its shape and fabric. Air-dry it away from heat sources.

Can I fit a laptop in a standard Kånken bag?

The standard Kånken Classic is not built to accommodate laptops. Instead, choose the Kånken Laptop version (available in 13", 15" or 17") which includes a padded compartment designed for device protection.

Do Kånken bags fade over time?

Sunlight exposure may cause slight fading due to the dyeing process. To preserve its vibrant colour, store your bag indoors or use a UV protectant spray.
