Full details
The Fjällräven Kånken Totepack offers versatile carrying options for daily urban adventures, seamlessly converting from a backpack for cycling to a shoulder bag for public transport.

FAQs
What material is the Kånken Totepack made of?
It is made from G-1000® HeavyDuty S, which is a blend of 65% recycled polyester and 35% organic cotton. This material provides durability, water resistance, and quick-drying properties.
Can I machine wash my Kånken Totepack?
No, machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the material, coatings, and the integrated seat pad. For cleaning, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap.
What is the seat pad for?
The removable seat pad is stored in a pocket inside the main compartment. It allows you to comfortably sit down on hard or cold surfaces, perfect for impromptu breaks during your commute or outdoor activities.
Is the Totepack suitable for international travel?
While durable and versatile for daily use, its 14-liter volume is more suited for day trips or carrying essentials. For extensive international travel, you might need a larger bag.
How do I convert it between backpack and shoulder bag?
For backpack use, pull the long shoulder straps through the top loops and adjust. For shoulder bag use, pull the top handles up, allowing the shoulder straps to hang or be tucked away, and carry by hand or over one shoulder.
Does it fit a water bottle?
Yes, the exterior open pockets on the sides are designed to hold items like a water bottle or an umbrella.
Troubleshooting
Laptop does not fit in the padded sleeve.
The padded sleeve is designed specifically for 13-inch laptops. Please ensure your laptop size is 13 inches or smaller. Larger laptops will not fit.
Bag feels uncomfortable when used as a backpack.
Adjust both shoulder straps evenly to distribute weight across your shoulders. Ensure the bag sits snugly against your back. Avoid overpacking beyond the 14-liter capacity.
Material appears less water-resistant over time.
The G-1000 material's water resistance can diminish with heavy use or cleaning. Consider re-applying Fjällräven Greenland Wax to restore its water-repellent properties.
Zipper feels stiff or sticky.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris. You can apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone spray or wax stick) to improve smoothness.
