Backpacks are commonly divided into travel, cycling, urban, and children’s types. The key parameters are the volume, dimensions, structure, the number of pockets, and finally the materials the backpack is made of.
Some are equipped with a trekking pole holder or a hydration bag.
Cycling backpacks
Cycling backpacks - lightweight backpacks with a volume of about 10-20 litres, usually equipped with a hydration bag and reflective elements.
Children's backpacks
Children's backpacks - small backpacks frequently adorned with reflective elements and popular cartoon characters.
Urban and school backpacks
Urban and school backpacks - usually smaller backpacks 15-30 litres in volume. Tend to have many internal and external pockets. Suitable for everyday wear to work, school, shopping, and short trips.
They are functionally designed and generally have an elegant a pleasing appearance.
Volume and size
Small backpacks (35 litres and less) - Suitable for the city walks, biking to school, or for short trips. The main advantage is their compact size and light weight.
Medium backpacks (55 litres and less) - Ideal for trips and hikes that last several days. Some are designed for specific uses, such as mountain climbing or extreme skiing. These have holders for trekking poles, a helmet, rope, skis, or a snowboard. Usually contain lumbar supporting features, reinforced structure, and sternum straps with buckles.
Large backpacks (55 litres and more) - Designed for longer trips and hikes. Can also be used as the main luggage. We recommend using a smaller backpack for the shorter trips. Make sure the backpack has a properly reinforced structure, lumbar support, and sternum straps or a harness. Most of them also have a ventilated back.
Construction
Usually consists of two light alloy or duralumin strips. These are firmly attached to the backpack frame.
The backpack should maintain its shape even when it’s half-empty and has skis attached to it.
Storage compartments and pockets
The backpack should provide multiple ways how to access the main storage compartment - for example, from the top, side, and bottom. It can contain multiple isolated compartments or one large.
The pocket quantity and arrangement are crucial. The important things should be always at hand.
Materials
Backpacks made of Cordura, Plastex, or Urtex are tougher and offer higher durability.
Waterproofing is generally solved with PU coating, which, however, tends to lose its effectiveness over time. Backpack rain covers are a common solution and can be purchased along with the backpack.
