My opinion: dont buy any of them, except you really need a bag pack. Thats the best for the planet. Buy only what you are going to use for a while and if is good quality, better. So reduce your consume and be eco-friendly :)

[@melissa-1340]

Luli Sissy that’s what the original kanken is. It lasts for many years. Some From the 50’s are still in use now. And the company will repair them if it gets damaged. And people obviously need a bag pack for school

Kånkens actually have a special part that is called Re-Kånken, made from recycled plastic bottles, also a part from the sales is destined to save the arctic foxes.

[@miraekang9734]

True! I have Jansport backpack which I bought for $10 (they had a sale), and I've been using it for 3 years now. I was tempted to buy Kanken because I needed something new & better quality, but I thought I'll wear my current backpack until it is no longer useful. Sometimes we just get bored for having to wear the same stuff for a long time, and buying a new one for the sake of style. But it's good that more people are considering the waste and the damage it caused to the planet. Sorry for bad English by the way :)

Mine has the thinner font and the name address and contact on the inside. I was shocked to see that now my original is being confused for a fake. If you go on the official website they still have some this way. I had to google it.

[@winry1890]

hi i just wanna clear some things up in case people are still trying to authenticate theirs ! im basing this off my three kankens (two from the official/physical store and one from our local online store) and i also have friends who got theirs from the official store as well. they all have only name, address, contact like on 2:09. only some have the swedish flag. about the buttons at 0:56, you can spin them around so i don't think that's a very reliable detail to figure out if it's fake or not. they all have tags like the fake ones, 4:24. i think the things at 2:30 is the only way to determine the authenticity, all of our kankens also have those silk textured tags (or whatever they're called) in conclusion, since original kankens are admittedly pretty expensive, the fake ones are a good option as they're really high quality too and seem legit

[@alien-iw1zj]

Thanks for sharing really helpful info! It’s no fun having a fake when you paid $$$ (it is a high quality fake though). Only buying from trustworthy stores from now on!

[@DezaRay24]

So I got that same fake one from Groupon of all places! Never said anything about shipping from China. However they are getting way better at these fakes. Some things you didn't mention is the fox's eye on the front logo is more sharp and the fake is rounded. Also my bag came with the exact same back pad as your real one, same nice thickness, and sticker. Mine Is also waterproof to my shock, but the foxes are not all facing the same. Inside has the same name tag, flag, and product tags. It fooled me at 1st until I watched a few videos & went to Urban Outfitters to see one for real. But other than the material being a tad thinner, they did a dang good fake! 😬

i mean, i’m happy with mine (black 20L) especially since i didn’t buy it for the aesthetic but for the factors like big bag, fits laptop, my fake one is water proof, durable and just perfect for me since it’s lightweight and i have bad back problems- i don’t mind the little details of the clasps and inside because no one will see it up close. So my advice is, if you’re struggling with money then it’s a good idea to get the fake one especially if you think you won’t wear it in a few years since trends die and it’s a lot of money for an original, but if you really want to and can afford the original then go for it since it does also go to support artic foxes and such

[@littlekitty4997]

I had experience with a fake backpack. That's when I didn't know the price of the original and bought a "drop" by buying a fake. I also checked everything from the video, thought it was an orig, but after I put on this backpack a couple of times, I started an allergic reaction - a rash, I wrote to the seller and asked if it should be washed immediately upon receipt, I was told no. But in the end, I started to suffer from irritation, combing my hands, which touched this same backpack and scratching my back, which the backpack also touched. As a result, I complained about the account of those fakes sellers and resold my backpack because I couldn't use it myself anymore. The annoyance took place after I sold my backpack and didn't touch it. It was all about pseudo-impregnation, if the original ones are impregnated with quality products, it's not clear what fakes soak. After this incident, I started postponing it to the original, and when I bought it, I didn't have such problems, I also never erased it. I bought a second original sling baby now and there's no problem with it either. From my personal experience, I realized that if there is no money for the original, either to save or buy some other brand, etc., but not to support the trick at the expense of the name of the quality original.

I got a new art series kanken from the website but I decided to just check if it was real or not using this vid! It is! Thanks! 😊

[@sixatteensix]

Same ! But I bought it for $50 and the number for the art is "23610" on my tag ( the chinese one ) , but on my bag it's says : ''23510" . I told the seller if it was real and the seller says : "our bag is original don't worry" , "sometimes supplier tag is wrong maybe" . Please help me because idk my Kånken Art is real or fake .

• { currypuffs } • Where did you order it from? Maybe I can help. Btw sorry for replying late ; w ;

[@sixatteensix]

@@miriamsimental8501 I order it from an app called " shopee " . ( If you don't know about the app , it's the largest online shopping app that Southeast Asia people use . )

[@sixatteensix]

@@miriamsimental8501 May I give you the link that where I buy it from ?

I just bought 3 Kankens for merely $10 at a thrift shop here in the Philippines. Fingers crossed that these are at least legit, but doesn't matter anyway if these are fake.

[@teabackup2515]

Why am I watching this i got mine at the official website what

[@katherine7095]

This is when I find out that the Kanken I bought secondhand was a fake all along. Its been like 6 years, lol! I wont get rid of it since than would be wasteful but I have been interested in getting a larger size so I’ll make sure that’s authentic this time around.

[@Summer-cz9qz]

I like how you edited this

[@Melanie-vd3xx]

thank you!

[@sovvvy]

I have a really great fake as well, it's absolutely similar to the original, it was 65 dollars for me, and, knowing that it's fake, this backpack has an amazing quality and I absolutely satisfied xd

[@daphnevalencia3983]

Um I think you mixed up the pictures because won the website the real ones looked liked the ones you labeled as fake

[@barbaraborini8466]

I think the fake one is a réplica of and older version. I have an original kanken (from an oficial store) from 2016, and The fake one is really similar to it: My kanken's original Tag was just like The fake's one. The contact label si really similar too, mine doesnt have The shield this original version has. And mine didn't have that round sticker in the inside either. Edit: also some people here said the older version has The slimmer font too.

Me:*wanting a kan ken bag but to broke* Also Me: Lets go get the fake one-

[@danmac0]

It takes 1 second to see a fake watching the dots on the letters A

[@chxvelvre5229]

I'm literally getting the fake one cuz I'm broke.

[@liamariavoelker4162]

Back in 2014 I payed 55 USD for my original Kränken. I just got a new original one and payed 100 AUD which is around 75 USD and that was the SALE price. I hate when something gets more expensive because it‘s trendy.

[@YaroslavLvivsky]

"When something gets more expensive because it's trendy" This is the basic rule of economics.

[@daimy2097]

Thnxx now I know that my kanken bagpak original is

[@deebexe]

I really love my backpacks, although they are fakes, I know that they are not worse than the original. By the way, I have three backpacks and they cost less than one original. 💫🍃

[@meganmckenzie4541]

Hooray mines real I literally bought it of the website obi it is 😂

[@ju_thmz]

Comprei a fake sem saber, mas mesmo assim, a imitação é muito bem feita. Moro no Brasil, as mochilas dessa marca aqui são muito caras ( em torno de 900 reais ou mais).

[@MotaShotta]

What I learned from this video, is that you might as well buy a fake Kanken bag

[@TheWowChannel1234]

Disgusting

[@yashinisuki]

I got a fake one out of curiosity, I always liked the design but couldn’t justify spending so much on such a basic and cheaply made backpack. The one that I got gets almost everything right, the main difference is that the buttons are not centred on the straps and the labels use slightly thinner fonts. Everything else is pretty much spot on (at least visually, can’t comment on longevity etc.). I’ve paid a little over £6 for it. At this point if you want to make sure that you’re getting the real one you should probably get it directly from Fjallraven considering how close the fakes are.

[@jannettevisser5260]

Just realising my 80 dollar kanken is fake 😂😂

[@cara7579]

my sister got me a fake kanken a couple months ago, before i got my real one for christmas my mum couldn’t tell the difference, although i could, i’m never going to use it which is a shame but it’s the colour that’s the only problem, it’s BRIGHT yellow and i really don’t like it, if she had gotten a different colour it would’ve been amazing though bc she also got a mini mint green one and it is beautiful

[@viola5584]

Now i know, my kånken is real. :)

[@izzyartley8515]

I bought a fake abroad for £10 and even though it’s clearly not as good quality, it’s holding up really well and you can’t tell just by looking

[@eller4389]

I have a fake Kånken mini and it work perfectly well and it is much cheaper so i would recommend Buying a fake for a much lower Price

[@Patrcz98]

Laura Regazzoni fake is for kids what want only flex, buy cheaper brand

[@JesusGonzalez-ge8hk]

The differences in the text of the inside contact info and the logo's tildes in the name are not because of a fail in the fabricant, but because the fake one has the format it used to have the colection that went out before than the colection when your real kanken was dropped

[@sixatteensix]

Sis imma buy the real one but it cost RM419 ( $100.72 )and up- I'mma save my money real quick af boi-

[@shavedice7005]

I’ve had one for about 2 years now and after watching this video… I’ve had a fake one this whole entire time!!! There are no signs of wear or de stitching at all!! I’m really surprised.

[@nom-nl8zs]

love this video 😂

[@eugeniakyriakopoulou5212]

The best way to tell is from the zipper. In a real kanken the zipper is always hemmed.

[@lauraoooo]

oh my god, it's all the same!

[@kozile109]

Fake : String keep coming out Flimsy zip is so smooth that it cannot stay in place Real: No string come out. non-flimsy zip is also smooth but stay in place
