The Greenland Shoulder Bag should be your go-to bag when it comes to commuting, travelling and general urban excursions. It's tough, feature packed and feels impeccably made in the hand, reinforcing that 'repair before replace' attitude that Fjallraven have always had.
A tough G-1000 Eco outer fabric ensures years of reliable use. 'Eco' refers to the use of recycled polyester and organic cotton, while no harsh chemicals are used to treat the fabric. From the factory the bag will have a thin layer of wax already applied to make the it water resistant, however if you ever want to top this up, all you need is Greenland Wax.
Internally is where the Greenland Shoulder Bag really shines - everything is made with such a high attention to detail; you can tell instantly that it's been built to last. A lightly coloured inner fabric makes it easy to see the multitude of pockets and arrangement options. You get a padded laptop sleeve (up to 15" laptops), a organisation sleeve which contains slots for books, a passport, pens or a phone and an external security pocket for a notebook or boarding pass.
Lastly, a handy waist strap stops the bag swinging around when you've got it over your shoulder, while a metal hook secures the lid of the bag down. It may not seem like a lot, but the fact that this hook is metal, that the detailing is Swedish vegetable tanned leather and the outer fabric is environmentally friendly gives you a sense of quality that you simply can't get anywhere else.
