Durable Outdoor Pack
Fjällräven’s Greenland Small Backpack is a handy outdoor bag with a simple top-loading main compartment. Importantly, the main compartment of the Greenland can be tightly secured at the front by an adjustable leather strap and metal buckle.
The Greenland Small comes with a number of convenient features that are designed to make your life easier. Particularly noteworthy is that the main compartment of the Greenland is readily accessible and secured by easily adjustable straps that may be adjusted to accommodate the weight of the backpack.
Like all Fjällräven Backpacks, the Greenland Backpack is durably designed for long-lasting use. The Greenland is made predominantly of G-1000 material, Fjällräven’s own hardwearing and versatile fabric. Importantly, G-1000 is one of the finest outdoor textiles on the market, making it ideal for excursions in all weather conditions.
Pleasingly, the Greenland Small is not as expensive as its larger Fjällräven counterpart, the Greenland Large. However, it does not have padded shoulder straps and storage space is somewhat limited. The Greenland is available in a wide range of unisex designs and has a convenient top haul handle for an easy pick up.
