Falafel Kanken 

One of those stupid, overpriced backpacks that all the dumb blond girls have; often seen in within the art hoe aesthetic; actually spelled “fjalraven kanken” but no one knows how to pronounce that
Have you seen Amy’s new falafel kanken?
Actually a really good backpack that was invented to help prevent back pain in Swedish schoolchildren. Has had a niche following for decades that will keep using it after vsco girls fade into obscurity.
I’m bringing my Kanken on the hike with some snacks and a (non hydro-flask) water bottle.

Fjällräven Kånken 

A popular and very basic swedish backpack made by Åke Nordin, that you see on white teenagers/Instagram baddies at amusement parks. They are very stylish but have the smallest side pockets ever. Pronounced F-Y-ah-ll-R-ah-ven KON-ken.
"I saw Kenzie with her yellow Fjällräven Kånken yesterday. What a basic art hoe..."

"Fjällräven Kånkens are low-key my favorite aesthetic!"
