I am sure you have seen these Fjallraven backpacks, and I know Mo has already blogged about them here, but I could not resist writing about them again.

I have been a big fan from way back in the ’80s when my dad had one of these, which he had picked up in Sweden — I tried to appropriate it several times. I thought it was the business because of one ingenious feature: the zip goes all around the front of the backpack — perfect to access your stuff from all sides… so simple and so clever! My dad’s pack was a boring grey functional colour, but I love the super cool bright colours these bags come in now. Very cheerful!
