Kånken

Fjällräven. My old Kånken survived university and years of travel. The replacement I bought last year is already falling apart.

Could also be a Fjällräven Kanken, see them around a lot as well. Pretty expensive for a piece of woven plastic.

Itse ostin just Fjällräven Räven 20 -repun läppärin ja muun roinan raahaamiseen. Lämmin suositus. Varuste.netistä näitä näyttäisi nyt olevan satasella ja näitä saattaa löytyä myös käytettyinä. Älä missään nimessä sitten vaan mene ostamaan sellaista trendikästä Kånken-reppua, ne vaan paskoo sun olkap

Well yes, Fjällräven backpacks have always carried a heavy price tag. If you've never owned a Kånken it's quite a leap of faith.

I've used hiking apparel and packs from a bunch of European-based brands in the past 2.5 decades. Every single pair of Haglöfs hiking pants I've had has outlived every single pair of Fjällräven hiking pants in my use.

The Fjällräven Toteback and the Kanken are both pretty damn uncomfortable imo. Sounds like what you are looking for is a packable backpack that has some structure to it, but is very light weight. A few ideas: Pakt Stash - has a little padding on back, 400g so pretty light, folds into a small space G

What do you want to carry in your daypack? 10 l is not much, it will fit some small items like a water bottle, small snack, wallet, phone, ebook, chargers.... if that's enough then go for it. If you want to be able to put an additional layer or a beach towel (at the destination) or any bigger stuff,

I have zero sewing skills but I respect people who know how to fix/modify their clothes and gear. I believe that my Jääkäri's can take some punishment, so I will continue to man handle them how I please and see how well they hold up. I picture the average Savotta user being a fit 30+ man, possibly w
