Ake Nordin – Founder of Fjallraven – 1960

Fjallraven has been known for building high quality, innovative gear since 1960 and to this day this hasn’t changed. The Kanken backpack made Fjallraven famous the world over, but the Vintage series of backpacks truly shows how Fjallraven has mastered the art of bringing old and new together. At first glance the Vintage backpacks look simple with their two side pockets and one main compartment. All pockets are closed with a simple leather strap and metal buckles. That is where the simplicity ends. This pack is manufactured with a G-1000 outer. This amazing material is more durable than denim and can easily be made more waterproof by applying Fjallraven’s Greenland wax! The complexity doesn’t end there. The suspension system is a lightweight frame system with mesh backing to allow for airflow between your back and the bag. This prevents sweating when using the backpack keeping the experience as pleasant as possible.

The Vintage packs are available in a wide variety of colors. They are available in both a 20 and 30 litre configuration making this pack an ideal choice as an everyday backpack or a great bag for an overnight trek!
