Our verdict

Reasons to buy

  • Truly comfortable to use like most bags from Fjallraven.
  • The laptop compartment is truly protected since it is greatly padded and slightly elevated to the bottom to protect from sudden drops.
  • The rolltop opening adds water protection for your things in the main compartment.
  • Has a hidden pocket at the sides for your valuable things such as wallet/s and/or passport/s

Things to consider

  • Access to the main compartment isn't fast because of the rolltop opening.
  • Could use an external quick access pocket for your small things.

What reviewers said

  • "Haven’t dunked this bag into a river but did do a shower test and definitely seems pretty water-resistant/proof. Pretty comfortable back straps."
  • "Very high quality, I needed this as a hydration pack and was worried I might have to do some destructive modifications but was pleased to learn that a drinking tube can be placed to one side and rolled up amongst the roll top. Waterproofing held up perfectly against a light shower, I've yet to try in heavy rain. Compartments are well thought out and it's so comfortable. Worth every penny"
  • "Super durable and waterproof fabric and very comfortable to wear. This bag has become my commuter bag also and has performed very well."

Fjallraven Ulvo mens backpack: gear review
escapismmagazine.com
If you're looking for a rolltop backpack with an outline that'll serve you from the office to the furthest flung of destinations, absolutely...the Ulvo is a great bag that'll serve you for days out almost anywhere, and is made from 31% recycled nylon, too.
Fjällräven Ulvö Rolltop Backpack | Review
outdoorsmagic.com
We had some pretty miserable weather in the fjords and I can tell you that the waterproofing definitely works. I was also really impressed by the durability of the material. It doesn’t feel as tough, as say, an Ortlieb rolltop, but it definitely seems as durable – and it doesn’t have that slightly ugly sheen to it that the PU coated commuter packs you often see have. This is much more refined. Another thing I liked about this is its packability. I flew out to Norway with this in my hold luggage and it flattened.
This Roll-Top Backpack From Fjällräven Expands Or Shrinks To Fit Your Needs And I Love It
brobible.com
The Fjällräven Ulvö-Rolltop-23L is a roll-top style backpack that enables you to expand or shrink the size of your backpack to fit the amount of gear/things you’re carrying around at any given time. It’s stylish enough to carry every day to school or the office, and it’s expandable and big enough to use as a travel backpack.
