CloseLooking for the perfect backpack to fit your travel needs? Our range offers something for everyone, whether you're heading out on a weekend getaway, a longer adventure or just need a reliable daypack. To help you make the right choice, we’ve put together a few frequently asked questions that cover how to choose the right type and size of backpack for your needs.
The difference between a backpack and a rucksack mainly comes down to size and purpose. Rucksacks are bigger, tougher and made for outdoor adventures like hiking or camping. They’re built to carry heavier loads and usually have a more rugged design. Backpacks, on the other hand, are more versatile. They come in all sorts of sizes, from small everyday bags to larger travel ones. They’re great for daily use and short trips, with multiple compartments to help you stay organised.
Choosing the right backpack size depends on what you’re planning to do. For a short day trip or everyday use, something between 10 and 25L is perfect. It’ll hold your basics like water, snacks and a jacket without feeling bulky. If you’re going for a longer hike, a 20 to 40L backpack will give you space for extra gear. For overnight trips or longer hikes, you’ll want a 30 to 50L bag to fit things like a sleeping bag and extra clothes. If you’re heading out for a few days of backpacking or camping, a 50 to 70L rucksack will give you plenty of room for everything you need.
Backpacks are actually perfect for travel, especially for short trips or as a carry-on. For example, a 25L backpack should give you enough room for your essentials, like clothes, toiletries and a water bottle, while keeping things light and easy to carry around. Travel backpacks with lots of pockets help keep everything organised and extras like a laptop sleeve or separate shoe compartment make it even easier to stay sorted. Plus, they’re great for keeping your things safe and secure while you’re on the go.
