Sturdy build, comfortable, practical and stylish. Works well as a cross-body bag and as a hip pack.

After less than a year of very mild and occasional use the belt broke off on one side. I own hip bags that are 10 times cheaper and already lasted 10 times longer than this one. Since it's my first thing from Fjallraven I'm very negatively surprised by the utter lack of quality in an item as simple as a hip pack.

I’ve had my kånken hip pack for roughly 4 years now, and I use it almost every day! There are still no signs of wear and tear on it, and it still has a lot of life left. It easily fits sunglasses, keys, and my wallet in the main compartment. My phone also fits in there, but it’s a tighter squeeze! I highly recommend this bag, and am considering getting another in a different color (I currently own Graphite). I also get lots of compliments on it!

Just got one more Fjallraven gadget for my collection and I must say the ULTRAMARINE blue is even more beautiful when you watch it directly. It brings me Greek islands memories. It's spacious and the elastic band in the back is a good idea to avoid having the strip hanging. The only negative point is the same I have with all the Kanken line. The washing instructions are very poor. And light colors look dirty very easily. When trying to remove stains you have the riske to remove colour even if using a sponge. Also I would like to recover initial texture and waterproof and find no directions. Is your Was useful for this purpose?

This pack is lovely but it is very small. It is advertised as having a 2 L capacity. In actuality, it is smaller than the lululemon everywhere belt bag which has a 1 L capacity. I’m not sure how these measurements can be so off, but it is definitely a very small pack. I would give it five stars for quality, but three stars for product description.

Fits all of my daily belongings and looks nice too

I bought this crossbody last March, and I use it every single day! It has traveled across the country and abroad with me, and has held up perfectly! It holds the small Kanken wallet, phone, keys, snacks, chapstick, purell, AirTag, and still has some room to spare. I love it so much!!!

I bought this for my 24 year old daughter for her birthday. She keeps telling me how much she loves it. She can fit a phone, wallet, chapstick, hand sanitizer, ,etc. She says it is perfect for her needs. For reference, she is very petite, and the size of the bag fits her well.

Smaller than expected. Looks much bigger on the model shown.

I bought this 2 years ago for a diaper bag & hip seat I didn’t have to lug around for quick outings. It fits 2 diapers with wipes, phone, a few snacks, and all the essential cards - much more function than anticipated. I have been using it consistently as an assisted carry/hip seat for a toddler and a baby and the buckle has never popped off. The yellow ochre colour has dirtied a bit but comes clean if it starts to bother me. Very happy with the purchase

I’ve owned this pack for about a year and I love it. It’s the perfect size to carry what I need everyday, and easily expands to be a crossbody bag, which is how I wear it. I’m back to buy it in another color.

I purchased two bags, and I was so impressed with their excellent quality! They're perfect as gifts for my friend, who will surely adore them!

I bought this for a gym fanny pack to hold my gloves and phone so my pants dont have too much weight in the pockets and its perfect for what im using it for

I use this as a hip pack while riding my bike. It is the perfect size- not too big or small. Perfect for biking or running errands. It has plenty of room for my wallet, phone, car key fob and lip gloss. I love the color and the texture of the material, which is soft, but firm enough to hold its shape. The strap is long enough to use as a Fanny pack or cross body bag.

I’ve loved all Fjallraven products that I’ve purchased in the past and this kanken hip pack is no exception. It fits everything I need including my kobo! I love the fabric and the colour, so much so that I want to get another in a different colour!. I highly recommend this bag for every day use
