Great Gift to expand with.
Bag was purchased as a gift. Inspection showed no sign of defects. Very well built and nice bag adjustments to wear it.

Disappointing quality
Bought last year for my son’s PreK class. The inside liner is completed shredded and falling apart. I have two other back packs that I purchased for my daughters 3 years ago and they are still in good shape. I think the quality has gone down.

Meets our needs (size, durability, ease of use)
Good size for my kindergartener - not overwhelmingly big, but big enough for folders/binders/booke, water bottle, jacket, etc. Material is sturdy enough to withstand the daily abuse imposed by kids. This is our 2nd kanken, after seeing how well a slightly larger version (with the laptop slot) held up for my now 5th grader; hes beem using it for at least 2 years now.

My go-to backpack
I absolutely love my Kånken backpack! It’s so roomy and fits everything I need, and I loooooove the color. It makes me happy every time I use it.

So happy to carry my Kanken!
The material and design are excellent. I like the water resistant material which is very practical for traveling. Also, the design makes the small backpack with extra capacity. I feel like I can put more stuff in the Kanken than any other bigger backpack. The light weight is a plus for travelers.
