15 years of use and I've finally retired the bag. HOLDS SO MUCH. Macbook Air 13" check. It literally holds * litre boxes of milk, I kid you not. Used them on my grocery runs all the time and hop on my bike. Use as backpack for travel in addition to carry-on, and you're set. Groceries, impromptu buys, fits it all. I've washed it so many times, the fabric softens, after all these years finally developed a couple of tiny holes where the fabric creases but doesn't affect functionality at all. Can't say enough about these Kanken bags. I've finally bought a replacement(s) in several different colours. But keeping this one as an everyday gym bag, throw in sneakers, towel, etc. Such a great backpack. Can't recommend enough.

This item looks soooooo worn, and all of the colors due. The bag looked like something that needed to be replaced, not a new purchase. Not happy with it.
I bought the classic Kånken in navy, and I’m really pleased with it. It doesn’t have a dedicated laptop compartment, so I slip my laptop into a protective sleeve first, and it fits nicely inside the main section. It’s sturdy, well-made, and the colour is exactly as pictured. I clean it from time to time with a wet rag, and lukewarm water. I’ve used it as one of my daily bags for more than two years, and even taken it travelling — it handles everything I throw in there (13" M2 MacBook in its sleeve, tablet, notebooks, bits and bobs) with no trouble. I’m aware it’s not recommended to carry a laptop due to the added weight, but it’s worked perfectly fine for me so far. The front pocket and side pockets are great for easy access to smaller items. Overall, it’s a dependable and stylish backpack that lives up to the Kånken name.
