The variety of fabrics used for Kånken backpacks continues to grow, and now we have something truly unique:"Pine Weave"fabric. As described by Fjällräven’s designers, this fabric, aptly named “Pine Weave,”is made entirely from natural materials.

In essence, Fjällräven’s design team embarked on a journey to explore non-fossil-based fabric alternatives with this material. The brand’s homeland, Sweden, and its birthplace in the northern town of Örnsköldsvik—perfectly fitting for a brand name like Fjällräven—played a crucial role in this innovation. Trees certified by the Swedish government as unsuitable for survival in nature were repurposed for sustainable innovations. Fjällräven embraced the challenge and created a remarkable, sustainable, non-fossil-based fabric.

This fabric was later waxed to enhance its durability. The light waves and vintage look you see on Tree-Kånken come from this treatment.

Fjällräven’s design team incorporated the uniqueness of this fabric into the design with a few subtle tweaks, staying true to Kånken’s principles of simplicity and functionality. The result? A brand-new Kånken with its own distinctive identity.

But Tree-Kånken isn’t just about the fabric. Unlike the classic Kånken models, it features a smooth, pocket-free front. Additionally, the reflective logo on the fabric adds a unique touch to its identity.

The small loops—whether you call them straps, laces, rings, or handles—are a perfect example of Scandinavian functionality. Why? When you see how these loops can be used for various purposes in nature, as shown in the photos, you’ll be amazed!

What’s even more exciting is that Fjällräven originally designed the very first Kånken backpacks in 1978 with these loops before switching to the pocketed design we know today. In a way, Tree-Kånken’s innovative design is inspired by the very first Kånken model from 43 years ago.

Bu arada bir minik hatırlatma daha: Tree-Kånken’deki renklerin hepsi sadece bu modele özel. Diğer Kånken modellerinde aynı renkler bulunmuyor. Ürünleri şimdi incele:
