Types Of Backpacks: The Ultimate Guide
Wheeled Backpacks

The capacity of these packs ranges from 40-150 liters, meaning that you can get them both in a carry-on size and checked bag size, depending on your personal preference. These backpacks usually have thickly padded back panels, which ensure that their wheels aren’t making you uncomfortable.

Travel Backpacks

They are large backpacks, designed for people who are going on trips that are at least a month long, and who want to carry all of their items in a backpack. Their capacities range from 70-150 liters, depending on their size. You should choose one wisely, depending on the length of your trip.

Hiking Backpacks

Hiking backpacks are designed for people who aren’t afraid of taking on the most difficult hiking trails. Which means plenty of gear, and spending a night or two in a tent.

These are very big backpacks, with capacities that range from 40-85 liters. And we can generally divide them into two sub-categories: framed packs and frameless packs.

Biking Gear Backpacks

Biking backpacks for gear are larger than hydration backpacks. They tend to have a main compartment, as well as an additional compartment (or a pocket) with an organizational panel for all your cycling gear and tools. And most of them will have an attachment point for your helmet and LED lights on the front. Generally, these packs are meant for people who need other gear, apart from their hydration bladder, when they are biking.

The capacities of these packs usually range from 10-30 liters, because the manufacturers try to keep them as small and lightweight as possible. Nobody wants a backpack to slow them down while they are riding! Oh, and they have a sleeve for your hydration bladder, although not all of these packs will come with a bladder included.

Drawstring Backpacks

These are basically gym sacks with drawstring closure and shoulder straps, which makes them a type of backpack. And yes, they are very weird and barely functional.

For one thing, they are usually really small, with a capacity from 10-25 liters. That’s not a lot. But it’s enough for gym gear, which is their most common use.

The reason why these are quite popular is because they are extremely lightweight. Even the largest drawstring packs only weigh a few ounces, which is awesome. Additionally, these packs are often really small, which allows you to throw it in your other bag and always have them handy in case you need them.

Laptop Backpack

Laptop backpacks are packs that have a sleeve for your laptop.

But, there are tons of different types of these backpacks. The sleeves can be internal, external and even removable. They can fit 11” laptops, 13” laptops, 15.6” laptops (most commonly), and some even fit the 17” laptops. Their sizes range from 20-50 liters, which really depends on the size and type of the pack.

Laptop backpacks are most commonly everyday packs, but you can find even some hiking and backpacking backpacks with laptop sleeves.

When buying a laptop backpack, you want to make sure that the sleeve will fit your laptop. That’s the first thing you need to pay attention to. The second thing you need to be careful with is the padding of the sleeve. The thicker the padding, the better shock resistance of the backpack, which will save your laptop in case you drop your pack.

Anti-Theft Backpack

Anti-theft backpacks look just like regular daypacks, at first glance. But when you really stare at them, you’ll notice that zippers and zipper pullers are not visible on most of these backpacks. And that’s their main design feature.

These packs can have several anti-theft features; usually, the hidden zipper pullers, but also cut-proof fabric, locks on pullers, compression straps over the zipper and various belts and buckles that hold your pullers in place. Additionally, high-end anti-theft backpacks will also have RFID blocking pockets, which will protect you even from electronic theft.

Rucksack

Regular backpacks have zipper closure of the main compartment. Rucksacks, on the other hand, have a flap that covers the main compartment. And there are many different ways in which this design can be carried out – the main compartment could have drawstring closure, magnetic snap closure or even remain completely open. Quite often they are canvas backpacks too.

Basic Daypack

A basic daypack had a standard backpack design – front-loading main compartment, a large front pocket, a pair of shoulder straps and a grab handle. These don’t usually have many features, and they don’t vary too much in size. Their capacity ranges anywhere from 20-40 liters, depending on the size and number of pockets.
