It is a small version of the Kanken backpack, except it is a shoulder bag and the side pocket aren’t very usefuI (you can have a pen, nut nothing else really). I ordered the green frost /pink peach but I found the pink peach was too bright for my taste and didn’t look the same as the picture. I returned it and it was a very easy process. I ordered a traditional black color that goes with everything. It is my everyday handbag. It is small but holds a lot. The little front pocket is tiny but perfect for a key-chain. The back pocket is perfect for the cellphone. The main pocket has everything I need, and the extra pocket is perfect for paper or passport. I highly recommend it if you want a small bag with large capacity.

love this bag
I was going to buy this bag, buy it is not authentic. No Swedish flag inside, no stamp of the Royal family. I will buy an original on their website. It’s just a copy…

Love it
I love my kanken sling. Its perfect for quick tuns or during trips when trying to keep small valuables with me. Waiting for a sling in the kanken Mini size so I can fit a book in there.

Perfect for everyday
Love this bag. Unlike the larger mini Kanken, there is no wasted vertical space. Items do not shift in bag and the two pockets are nice to put a phone or a e-reader. Strap is comfortable and adjustable. Front pocket is very small but good for lip balm or other smaller items.

perfect - robust - hip
My second color (burgundy) in this mini size. Love it. It’s small so you have to compromise on what you schlepp around. On the up side, it never gets so heavy that your shoulder hurts :-)

Perfect for traveling light!
This little but mighty backpack will be perfect for when I am abroad, which is twice a year for a month each time, because it is not heavy or too big for my frame. When I’m out and about sightseeing or hiking, I only need a few items, not a great big, heavy leather backpack. I will also use it as my every-day-carry as my handbag/purse. And the colors available are gorgeous. It is so well-made!

perfect for bag breakers!
i usually hate splurging on bags because they never tend to last, but i’ve had my sling in clay for about two years now- i’m a super accident prone person, and i needed a bag that could deal with getting thrown around or beat up. it’s been handling that very well! there’s some minor discoloration/scratches on the bag, but all issues are solely cosmetic and would probably come out with a gentle wash :) carries a good deal of stuff (calculator, phone, glasses, etcetera) and i get tons of compliments on it. definitely worth buying if you’re a mess like me haha
