Rewards Program Terms and Conditions
Last updated January 1st, 2020
Opting-in to Moosejaw Rewards:
All users must accept these terms and conditions and create an account with Moosejaw to opt-in to the program and earn, accrue, retain and redeem Moosejaw Reward Dollars (MJ$). The program is FREE to join and membership is ongoing until or unless the user requests to be removed or is removed due to abuse of the program. Users can opt-in to the program while checking out on Moosejaw.com or at one of our stores or at any time within 30 days of purchase to accrue the MJ$ earned on that purchase. Once opted-in to the program, MJ$ will earn and accrue for redemption as described below until the MJ$ expire or the user leaves the program.
All information collected and used to facilitate the Moosejaw Rewards program is directly related to the program's ability to provide value to the customer. A customer opting-in to the Moosejaw Rewards program is a separate action from establishing a user profile as a result of making a purchase.
The program opt-in requirement was added on August 6th, 2019. Existing program members prior to that date must still formally opt-in and accept the terms and conditions to continue to retain, earn and redeem MJ$. Pre-existing program members that fail to opt-in prior to June 28, 2020 will be removed from the program, and any unused MJ$ will be voided. We really, really don't want to that to happen, so please opt-in or we'll feel terrible.
Leaving Moosejaw Rewards Program:
You may choose to leave the Moosejaw Rewards program at any time by logging in and clicking on the “Opt out Rewards Program” link within the My Account Summary page, Email, calling 877-MOOSEJAW (877-666-7352) or in-store with help from our employees. If you leave the rewards program, any unused MJ$ will be voided upon completion of your request.
Earning MJ$:
All items we sell are eligible with the exception of gift cards or other items specifically noted. Full-priced items earn 10% back while discounted items earn 2.5%. "Discounted items" includes items on sale or discounted via coupon code or use of MJ$. You do not earn MJ$ for shipping or tax charges, only from the item value. MJ$ expire two years after earning and are redeemed on a first-in, first out basis (in other words, we always use your oldest MJ$ that are closest to expiration).
Checking & Redeeming MJ$:
On Moosejaw.com, just sign-in on any page to see your available balance. Once signed in, you will see your available MJ$ and maximum that can be redeemed in the payment section of the checkout process. In stores, provide the email address attached to your account to learn your balance and apply to your purchase. We will also send you a monthly email that details your balance and other account activity. This is a transactional email that you will receive even if you are not subscribed to our marketing emails.
Bonus Rewards Promotions:
Every so often, we'll have special offers where you can earn bonus MJ$, like an additional 10%, 20% or 40% back. So if we are running a 50% back special offer, and you buy a regular-priced item for $100.00, you will receive MJ$10.00 in base points, and a bonus of MJ$40. These special offers may have a cap on how many bonus MJ$ you earn during the promotion, but you will always earn the base Reward Dollars. Make sure to check us out on our social channels for other ways to win some extra MJ$!
MJ$ on Gift Cards:
You don't get earn MJ$ when you buy a gift card, but you do get MJ$ when you spend a gift card. Sorry gift givers. You're welcome gift receivers.
Product Returns and MJ$:
If you return an item, we deduct the MJ$ earned on that item from your balance. If you used the MJ$ and your balance is less than deduction, then your refund is reduced by the difference.
Program Abuse:
The intent of the program is to provide our loyal customers with a way to buy great gear for less. Moosejaw reserves the right to remove any user from the program and zero out their MJ$ balance if Moosejaw determines that the user is abusing the program by buying for resale, attempting to game the program or any other reason at Moosejaw's sole discretion.
Are you Sure?
Our Rewards Program is completely FREE and easy to use.
By opting out, you forfeit all the Moosejaw Rewards Dollars your currently have in your account, which is basically throwing away free money. What would your grandmother say about that? If you're 100% sure, please click "OptOut" below.
For Moosejaw Rewards members only. New members enroll for free during checkout.
You must use code GRAB20 to take the 20% off a full-priced item.
The deal is only on in stock items. Deal cannot be applied to prior purchases or with other promotions.
Load bearing climbing equipment, like a harness or carabiner, is final sale by law so if you don't like your climbing stuff just hang it on your wall to impress your friends - sorry for being so mean about it.
Earn 10% back on all full-priced purchases on Moosejaw.com or at our shops (2.5% for discounted items).
The program is FREE. Just register and join during the checkout process. So Easy.
After joining the program, you'll receive your MJ$ as soon as your order ships. Then the next time you shop at Moosejaw, you can redeem those MJ$ to get awesome gear for way less.
"Get it by" - For in-stock and ready to ship items, choose the your shipping speed at checkout to get your items by the "get it by" date. Your items will ship SAME DAY for orders placed before 3pm EST.
"Oversized" - This means the item is large and can only be shipped using 4-6 Day ship speed. Additional shipping charges may apply.
"Freight" - This means the item is too large for standard shipping methods, and must be shipped by truck freight for an additional fee. Someone must be present to inspect, sign, and accept delivery, so we will call you to schedule delivery.
If you have any questions, please Live Chat or call us at 877-666-7352.
Special order items take longer to ship
We want to make extra-sure you realize that you've added a special order item to your cart. These items take a little longer to get to you because we have to order from the manufacturer first. The "Est. Ship Date" is the date we expect items to leave our warehouse... so add your chosen shipping speed to see when it will show up at your door.

Hardy BackpackI’ve been using this backpack for about a month now and it definitely can take a beating. I’ve personally customized mine with embroidery and I can tell you the material it’s made out of is thick. Fjallraven products in general are high quality, but I’d recommend getting yourself a kånken!

Not convenientVery hard to fit my hydroflask. Almost impossible to fit hydroflask and laptop at the same time. Laptop doesn’t fit in sleeve with the extra cushion thing they ask u to keep. Front pocket hard to open.

Great backpackThis backpack is durable and amazing for weekend trips, going to the office, or running around. There is a laptop compartment which adds extra security. The design allows for your stuff to be packed neatly and optimizes all the space.
Hi there! I'm really hoping to get an authentic Kanken backpack. Before I purchase, can you confirm that Moosejaw is an authorized dealer for Fjallraven?
Asked by: Anonymous
Hello, I just used the link above to verify if Moosejaw is an authorized retailer of Fjallraven products and, not only does Moosejaw NOT show up in the store locater link...it shows that it is NOT AN AUTHORIZED retailer in the "verify reseller" search box. This is troubling as I purchased a Kanken backpack from this site. Does this mean my Kanken is fake??

Hey, I want to use this bag for school, but I'm not sure if it would be able to fit all the books and things I would need. I oredered this bag somewhere else and it was so small. Is this backpack about the same size as a normal school bag would be?
Asked by: SamFecher
Thanks for the question! I have the Classic Kanken and use it as more of a work bag/ purse. I would not use it for school because it is a tad short and items such as notebooks will hit right at the top. I would go with the Kanken 15 Inch Laptop Bag - even if you aren't planning on carrying a laptop, because it will give you more internal space. The dimensions are 15.7 x 11 x 6.3 inches and I included a link below. I hope this gives you a better idea!

I'm replacing my Fjallraven 15" laptop bag (purchased a couple of years back from Moosejaw), and was wondering whether or not this bag would fit a 13" laptop comfortably?
Asked by: BrittW
Hey BrittW, good question! The original Kanken bag is 15" x 10.6" x 5.1"; so knowing that, you should have just enough room in there somewhere for a 13" laptop. Hope this helps!

Can anyone tell me if this bag is real or not? Because ive ordered a bag from here before, and it didnt have the original swedish flag that is supposed to come in every authentic bag. I wondered if there was a reason some do have it and some dont.
Asked by: celetubbies
Hiya celetubbies, thanks for your question! Hmmm... We are an official retailer of Fjallraven products. I wasn't aware that every bag included a flag. My bag didn't include one (I ordered it directly from Fjallraven) and I did a poll around the office... we're Kanken groupies around here... and they didn't receive one either. Some received Swedish Fish with their pack, but no flag. :(
I will look into this and see if and when Fjallraven discontinued the flag freebie. If you have any further concerns about the authenticity of your pack, I would contact Fjallraven directly at (855) 996-3746.
I'm sorry I don't have more information for you!

Is the material the same for all colors?
Because it seems like the acorn color and the sand color have a different shape/fabric
Asked by: jcho
Hey, thanks for the question! As someone who has multiple Kanken's in several colors, I can confidently say that every color option is made of the same fabric. Some of the images are photographed differently and also the zipper placement while closed will affect the bag shape. There is no material difference :)

Will the original 16L Kanken fit a 40oz. Hydro flask water bottle in the side pocket? Thank you!
Asked by: Dreilly
Hey there Dreilly, great question! Unfortunately; no Hydroflask bottles will fit in these super skinny side sleeves. I do know that these S'well bottles fit, I'll attach a link so you can check them out for yourself. Sorry about that, but I hope this helps!

Will you get in any purple bags any time soon?
Asked by: Angelica
Hey Angelica, thanks for the question! We should be getting more purple options of this specific Kanken in the future, I cannot say for sure when that will be at this time though. We do currently have a Deep Violet option available in the Fjallraven Re-Kanken Backpack, I'll leave a link for you to check it out below. I hope this helps!
