A straight back is a healthy back. The Kånken was introduced in 1978 to prevent back pain suffered by Swedish schoolchildren. More than 35 years later, the Kånken has straightened millions of backs and has become one of Fjällräven's most popular products. The Kånken No. 2 is made from durable G-1000 HeavyDuty, which is produced with a double wax treatment. The rear inner pocket is made from G-1000 Lite. Like its predecessor, this model is a sturdy backpack for everyday use, practical for both the commute to school or work as well as for outings or travel. The large opening of the main compartment allows for easy packing and unpacking of items. In the back pocket, there is a padded seat cushion made from G-1000 HeavyDuty, so you can comfortably rest anytime. It features two open side pockets and a zippered pocket on the front. Details and handles are made of leather. The shoulder straps are made of textile. With Greenland Wax, you can easily enhance the water resistance and durability of your bag.
