Total capacity

The working volume of a backpack determines the maximum amount of cargo that can be carried in it. Note that not all manufacturers indicate this parameter in the same way: in one case it can only be the volume of the main compartment, in the other — the total capacity, taking into account all compartments and pockets. If the exact value is important for you, you should separately specify this parameter for each model of interest.

The optimal volume of a backpack is directly related to its intended purpose and features of use. For example, for an urban model designed for documents and textbooks, most often 10 liters is enough, and for trips lasting several days, about 60-70 liters, or even more, may be needed. In general, when choosing the optimal volume for a hiking backpack, it is best to turn to reference literature, or for advice from experienced “hikers”.

Note that the volume of the backpack can often be adjusted. One of the options is side ties (see "Design") to change the thickness. And in some versions, it may also be possible to change the volume due to a special folding insert made of fabric — if necessary, it can be expanded and the height of the backpack can be increased. The names of such models often contain two numbers, for example 35:45 — they indicate the volume in the folded and unfolded form, respectively. In our catalog for these options, the maximum volume is indicated, in the unfolded position.

Backrest

Anatomical. The most common type of back in today's backpacks. In accordance with the name, the shape and design of such a backrest is designed taking into account the anatomy of the human body; thanks to this, the load is optimally distributed on the user's back, which allows you to carry significant weight without much inconvenience and harm to health (of course, if the backpack is properly selected and configured). The specific features of such backpacks can be different, but most often the back has protrusions and curves, which give it the necessary properties.

Easel. This type of backrest is a one-piece structure in the form of a frame with straps (usually metal), on which the actual soft bag for things is attached. Easel backs are less comfortable than anatomical ones, so they are relatively rare, mainly in two categories of backpacks. The first is hiking models (see "In the direction") of large capacity, from 60 liters and above; in them, the soft bag is often made removable, which allows, if necessary, to hang another load on the frame that is suitable in size and weight. The second variety is backpacks for fishermen, where the frame is actually a folding chair (see "Equipment").

Hard back. The presence of a rigid frame in the design of the backpack. Note that this feature should not be confused with the easel back: a rigid frame usually means...one or more metal plates built into the anatomical back. The main function of such plates is to optimize the load when the backpack is unevenly filled or when carrying hard objects of an “uncomfortable” shape. Without hard inserts, the contents of the backpack could press on certain points of the back, creating discomfort, and the plates evenly distribute all the pressure on the back. At the same time, in many models it is possible to remove the frame — for example, to reduce the weight of the backpack.

Back ventilation. This feature suggests that the back has a special design that improves air circulation between the backpack and the user's back. This, in turn, improves thermoregulation and reduces sweating. Such properties are usually achieved through the use of porous breathable materials, as well as a special relief shape of the back itself. Note that this feature will be useful not only in hot, but also in cool weather.

— Adjustment of a back on height. The ability to adjust the back of the backpack in height is found only in models equipped with a waist belt (see "Cables and belts"). The essence of this adjustment is that, thanks to a special fastening, the main straps can be moved up or down, changing the distance between these straps and the waist belt. This gives additional features for adjusting the backpack to the height and physique of a particular user.

Ties and straps

Chest strap. Attachment in the form of a strap with a clasp that connects the main straps of the backpack at the level of the user's chest. When fastened, such a strap keeps the straps at the same distance from each other and does not allow them to “scatter”. This provides additional convenience in the distribution of weight, as well as a secure fit on the body: it is almost impossible to remove the backpack without unfastening the strap. To adjust to a specific user, the chest strap is often made adjustable.

Adjustment of the chest strap. The ability to adjust the height at which the chest strap of the backpack is located. This function allows you to choose the optimal location of the screed, taking into account the height and physique of the user; while the range of adjustment is usually quite extensive. However in some models (especially inexpensive ones), adjustable ties can spontaneously move when accidentally touched, knocking down the height settings; however, this shortcoming is usually not critical.

Top straps. Tie-down straps located at the top of the backpack. They are mainly intended for fixing the upper valve, as well as for adjusting the volume of the upper part of the backpack, similarly to the side straps described below (moreover, such adjustment can also be provided in models that do not have a valve).

Side straps. Tie straps located on the sides of the backpack — usually one on each side, however, in large tall models, there may be two on the side. The main function of such straps is to “compact” the backpack if it is not completely filled: by tightening the side ties, you can reduce the thickness of the backpack so that the contents are tightly fixed and not dangling inside. In addition, the side tie is convenient to use in combination with the bottle pocket for carrying long items, such as an umbrella or a mat: the lower part of such an item fits into the pocket, and the upper part can be fixed with a tie.

Front straps. If the purpose of the ties described above is primarily to adjust the volume, then in the case of front ties they can be described as an additional fastening for placing things. They are two horizontal "belts" at the top and bottom of the backpack, under which you can fasten outerwear (similar to the principle with an elastic cord), a mat or other voluminous things, such as a snowboard. However, for the latter, these ties are not specialized and storage of the board in them is less convenient than in personal mounts. Naturally, the screed also fulfills its main function — it tightens the walls of the backpack, making its shape more “slender” and compact.

Bottom straps. Tie-down straps located on the underside of the product. They allow you to adjust the volume of the lower part of the backpack (or the lower pocket), provide additional support and fixation of the contents, and in some models they can also be used as a fastener for carrying various items “on an external sling”: for example, you can put ties into stretched to the maximum size karemat and tighten the straps, securely securing the outer load.

Waist belt. An additional device in the form of a belt, which, when fastened, covers the user's body in the area of the belt. The specific design of this part may vary. So, in relatively small backpacks, it is just a strap made of nylon or other similar material, and in large volumetric models, two wide and thick “petals” are provided that are adjacent to the user’s sides and are interconnected by a small strap with a clasp. Anyway, the main function of the waist belt is to redistribute the load: it allows you to transfer the load from the shoulders to the pelvic area, which is especially convenient when carrying heavy loads. In addition, such a device provides additional reliability of fixing the backpack on the body.

Pockets

Compartment for a laptop. Compartment dedicated to transporting laptops. Usually, it looks like a separate compartment with dense soft walls — thus, the laptop inside does not hang around the backpack and receives additional protection from shocks and shocks. Note that different models with this function may have different restrictions on the maximum diagonal of the laptop (see below); therefore, before buying, it's ok to check whether the backpack will be compatible with your device.

Top pocket. The presence of a separate upper pocket, most often on the valve. In such a pocket it is convenient to keep relatively small but important things to which it is desirable to have quick access: a flashlight, a first aid kit, a map, etc. Also, this compartment can be useful for fragile things, because. Due to its location, it is slightly susceptible to impacts and concussions. For better protection, it can even be dense (hard).

Front pocket. The presence of a pocket on the "outer" side of the backpack (opposite back). The purpose of such a pocket is generally similar to the top one, however, in many models its design is such that it is most convenient to put flat things inside — documents, books, etc. In urban backpacks, the front pocket can also be called an additional compartment, fenced off from the main wall and having its own fastener.

...="/list/74/pr-36945/">Crab pocket. A detail that is not so much a pocket as a mount of a special design. In general terms, it can be described as a piece of fabric attached to the front of the backpack with elastic bands and/or fastex straps. Under this piece of fabric, the contents of the “crab” are placed, which is securely fixed by tightening the straps. In this way, it is very convenient to carry relatively large and pressure-resistant items that need quick access — for example, a jacket, a hat with a scarf, a bicycle helmet, etc.

Side pockets. The presence of pockets on the sides of the backpack. Their general purpose is the same as for any individual pockets: the placement of relatively small things that you want to have quick access to, or that can be "lost" in the vast space of the main compartment. Like the front ones, they are not recommended for fragile things. Unlike bottle pockets (see below), classic side pockets are made of dense fabric and usually have the ability to fasten.

Bottom pocket. Like the front pocket (see above), such a pocket is located on the front side of the backpack, however, it is located in its lower part, near the bottom (in fact, some models have both a front and bottom pocket). Another difference is the size: the bottom pocket is relatively small and is intended more for every “little thing” than for large flat items. And in some models, the role of the lower pocket is played by a part of the main compartment, separated from the rest of the volume by a partition; such a partition can be made unfastened, which allows, if necessary, to combine the lower pocket with the main compartment, and use the fastener of this pocket for lower opening (see "Design"). Anyway, the lower part of the backpack is most susceptible to shock and compression, so it is not recommended to store fragile items in it.

Weapon pocket. Pocket for carrying firearms. Usually, it is located on the outside of the backpack and is used to “hide” the butt of a long-barreled weapon. It can be supplemented with couplers for fixing the trunk. Also, this term means the presence of a pocket with a holster or an adaptive pocket for a particular type of weapon (for example, a pistol or a submachine gun).

Bottle pocket. A variation of the side pocket (see above), without a fastener and open at the top. The role of the latch is usually played by an elastic band in the upper part of the pocket, and the pocket itself can be made of mesh. In such compartments it is convenient to keep not only a bottle, but also other things of a similar shape that need quick access — for example, an umbrella. Also note that such pockets are convenient to use in combination with side ties; see "Cables and straps" for more details.

Pocket on the back. Pocket located on the back of the backpack. Designed for small but valuable items such as money or documents. The convenience of such a pocket lies in the fact that it can be reached only by removing the backpack; Thus, while the backpack is on your shoulders, you can not be afraid that an attacker will quietly unfasten the clasp and steal valuable contents.

Pocket on the waist belt. A separate pocket located on one of the halves of the waist belt (see "Cables and belts"). Usually can be fastened tightly. The volume of such a pocket is very small, but it has an important advantage: you can quickly and easily get to the contents without removing the backpack and without even unfastening the latches on the ties (whereas in other pockets this may require some skill or even outside help). This makes the waistbelt pocket perfect for small items that you need to have constant access to while on the move, such as a phone or a compass.

Webbing pocket. A pocket located directly on the strap — usually in the user's chest area (when carried in the normal position). Similar to the pocket on the waist belt described above, it is designed to store small things that you want quick access to (flashlight, food bar, etc.); however, this pocket is usually made open and differs in shape — it is usually high and narrow, under the shape of the strap itself.
