Buy a backpack

The backpack is full of personal belongings, and about half of the time is spent carrying the backpack during the trip, so the comfort and practicality of the backpack can't be reconciled.

The types and uses of backpacks are very detailed, which cannot be explained clearly in a few hundred words. According to Rick, an expert of Zhidian outdoor products franchise store, backpacks are divided into mountaineering bags and backpacks for daily urban travel or short-distance travel. The functions and uses of these backpacks are quite different. Mountaineering bags are divided into big bags and small bags. There are two kinds of big bags: external racks and internal racks. Because the outer frame is very inconvenient to travel in mountainous areas, it is generally recommended to use the inner frame backpack. Take Sichuan Siguniang Mountain for example. It is recommended that men use 70-80l backpacks and women use 40-50l backpacks. It is best to carry a detachable top bag or waist bag. After arriving at the camp, you can put your usual things in your top bag or purse, leave your big bag at the camp and go into battle lightly.

Although carrying a heavy backpack looks very eye-catching, only you can feel the weight carried by yourself, and no one can share the burden on your shoulders, so you must do what you can when you travel, and you must choose your backpack according to your size. When choosing a backpack, you must try to weigh it, that is, put something equivalent to your luggage in the bag to try the effect, or borrow a friend's backpack to try the back. When trying on the back, we should pay attention to whether the backpack is close to the back, whether the belt and chest strap are suitable, and whether men and women should separate outdoor products for the May Day outing.

When buying a backpack, it is recommended to go to a professional store to guide the purchase. When choosing a backpack, you must be picky. Don't just look at the brand. If it's not suitable, you'd rather not do it. After all, you are tired.

Types and uses of backpacks

According to the different size of backpacks, backpacks can generally be divided into three categories: large, medium and small.

A large backpack with a volume of more than 50 liters is suitable for medium and long-distance travel and more professional adventure activities. For example, if you want to travel to Tibet for a long time or explore mountain climbing, you should undoubtedly choose a large backpack with a capacity of more than 50 liters. Some short and medium-term trips also need a big backpack when camping in the wild, because only it can hold the tents, sleeping bags and sleeping mats you need for camping. Large backpacks can be divided into mountaineering bags and backpacks for long-distance travel according to different uses.

Generally, mountaineering bags are slender, so that they can pass through narrow terrain. The bag is divided into upper and lower layers, separated by zipper interlayer, which is very convenient to take and put things. Tents and mats can be tied to the side and top of the backpack, which virtually increases the size of the backpack. There is also an ice cone cover outside the backpack, which can be used to bind the ice cone and the snow pole. The most noteworthy thing is the back structure of these backpacks, which is supported by a lightweight aluminum alloy inner frame. The shape of the back is designed according to the principle of ergonomics, and the back is wide and thick. The shape is designed to conform to the "S" shape of human physiological curve, and there is a chest strap to prevent the shoulder strap from slipping to both sides, which makes backpackers feel very comfortable. Moreover, these backpacks have strong, generous and comfortable straps, and the height of the straps can be adjusted. Users can easily adjust the straps to their own height according to their own figure. Generally speaking, the bottom of the backpack is located above the hip, which can transfer more than half of the weight of the backpack to the waist, thus greatly reducing the burden on the shoulders and reducing the damage to the shoulders caused by long-term load.

The bag body structure of a long-distance travel backpack is similar to that of a mountaineering bag, except that the bag body is wider and has many side pockets for sorting and placing odds and ends. The front of a long-distance travel backpack can usually be completely opened, making it very convenient to take and put things.

The volume of medium-sized backpacks is generally between 30 and 50 liters, and this kind of backpacks can be used more widely. For two to four days of field trips, inter-city trips and some long-distance self-help tours without camping, a medium-sized backpack is perfect. Carry-on clothes and some daily necessities can be loaded. The styles and types of medium-sized backpacks are more diverse. Some backpacks add some side pockets, which is more conducive to repackaging items. The back structure of these backpacks is roughly the same as that of big backpacks.

Small backpack has a volume of less than 30 liters, and this kind of backpack is generally used in cities. Of course, they are also very suitable for 1~2 days of outing.

There are also some special-purpose backpacks, such as bicycle bags and backpacks. Bicycle bags are specially designed for cycling. They are divided into front bag and back bag. The front bag is relatively small, so you can hang it on the front beam of the bicycle and put some handy items. The rear bags are large, usually a pair, which are hung on both sides of the rear frame of the bicycle to hold larger and heavier items. Backframe bags are commonly used in mountaineering. The back frame is a trapezoidal metal frame made of light aluminum alloy, which is used to transport larger items, such as boxes. The backpack is designed on this basis, that is, a detachable metal frame is added outside the backpack, which is more suitable for carrying heavy objects.

Backpack materials and technology

Because outdoor backpacks are used in special environment, higher requirements are put forward for the materials and technology of backpacks. All the stressed parts of the backpack were sewn three times with a sewing machine to make the stressed parts firm and durable. The buckles and other parts of the backpack can be protected from freezing, crushing and deformation at 120 degrees Celsius without being damaged. The outer material of the backpack mainly includes 420D Oxford nylon, 1000D nylon, 600D or 1000D polyester, or 1000D CORDVRA. 1000D material has high density and wear resistance, which is very suitable for outdoor use. CORDVRA is a famous high-grade wear-resistant nylon roving fabric developed by DuPont company in the United States. The wear resistance of this material is much higher than that of ordinary nylon or polyester, and it is light in weight. More than 90% of the world's famous backpacks are made of this prestigious nylon material. These materials can withstand the water pressure of 0.5m~2m to keep the items in the bag dry. Some materials also have anti-tear function, once punctured, the breach will not tear and expand.

Brand and selection of backpacks

There are many brands of backpacks, such as NIKKO in Hong Kong, ZZRO POINT in Japan, BIG PACK and VAUDE in Germany. Because Nikko entered the domestic market earlier, it is famous and the price is higher. Most backpacks are designed with a V-shaped inner frame, which fully conforms to the human body structure and mechanical principles. VAUDE brand backpacks are produced by VAUDE company in Germany, which is the largest and most famous outdoor sports equipment manufacturer in Europe, such as mountaineering and exploration. The VAUDE brand backpacks produced by the company are also loved by climbers, explorers and other outdoor athletes all over the world for their reasonable design, complete varieties and excellent quality. Ozark is also a famous brand. The Everest backpack in its series of mountaineering bags is a typical large backpack, and the mask and ice pick belong to medium-sized backpacks.

When choosing a backpack, you should consider the size and style, in addition, you should also consider the user's figure and load-bearing ability. People with short stature should not choose backpacks that are too big. Generally speaking, it is best for women to choose a backpack with a volume of no more than 60 liters. When choosing a backpack, you should not only look with your eyes, but also try it on your back. Walking is often the best way to feel the performance of backpacks. No matter how advanced the design is, if your back is uncomfortable, this backpack is not suitable for you.

Use of backpack

For a large backpack with a volume of more than 50 liters, when placing items, put the heavy objects that are not afraid of bumping on the lower part. After placing, the backpack is best to stand alone. If there are many weights, put them evenly in the bag, close to the side of the body, so that the overall center of gravity will not fall back.

The shoulder of the backpack is skillful. Put your backpack at a certain height, put your shoulders into your shoulder straps, lean forward and stand up with your legs more conveniently. If there is no high place to put it, lift the backpack with both hands, land on one knee and face the strap. Hold the bag with one hand, and turn around quickly with the other hand to let one arm enter the strap, and then the other arm enters.

After carrying the bag, tighten the belt and let the crotch bear the heaviest force. Fasten the chest strap and tighten it so that the backpack does not feel backward. When walking, pull the adjustment belt between the shoulder strap and the backpack with both hands, and lean forward slightly, so that when walking, the gravity is actually at the waist and crotch, and there is no pressure on the back. In an emergency, the upper limbs can be flexible. When you pass through a steep section of rapids without protection, you should loosen your shoulder straps and open your belt and chest strap, so that in case of danger, you can separate people and bags as quickly as possible.
