I think Fjällräven was great some twenty years ago but has since been sold and bought and traded and is yet another one of the overpriced former outdoors gear now lifestyle brands nowadays. AFAIK it is still good quality in the upper tiers but very far from the affordable lifetime investments they once were and that made them great.

The more you know! Thanks for the info, I had no idea.
