What should I pay attention to when choosing a mountaineering bag?

How to buy outdoor hiking bags? Let's take a look at Bian Xiao's sharing today.

1, the choice of backpack volume

If the travel time is short, you are not going to camp outdoors, and you don't have much to carry, then choose a small backpack. The general instructions are 25 liters to 45 liters. This kind of backpack is generally simple in structure, and there is no or little plug-in. In addition to a main bag, there are generally 3-5 attached bags, which are convenient for sorting and loading items. If you travel for a long time or need to bring camping equipment, you should choose a big bag, preferably 50-70 liters. If you need to load many items or have a large volume, you can choose a large backpack with 80+20 liters or a backpack with more external plugs.

2, the choice of backpack type

Both are mountaineering bags, but they have different uses. For example, rock climbing bags specially designed for rock climbing activities are generally not designed with hard supports. In order to be portable and flexible, there are many external points for hanging equipment conveniently, and some styles are also specially equipped with padding cloth for sorting equipment. Bicycle series bags designed for riding pay more attention to riding characteristics and can be divided into backpacks and rucksacks.

Universal mountaineering bag, also known as camping backpack, is designed to take into account the characteristics of various sports forms and the needs of long-distance marching, and is suitable for mountaineering, exploration and woodland crossing activities. There is also a kind of backpack specially designed for long-distance travel, called multi-purpose bag or sub-bag. Its split structure is basically similar to a mountaineering bag. It can be carried on both shoulders and layered up and down, just like a suitcase. You can carry it on one shoulder or horizontally and vertically. The big and small packages are conjoined structure, which is convenient to use and deeply loved by business travelers. In short, all kinds of backpacks have their own unique scope of application, and the best choice for buying a bag is to use it exclusively.

3. Selection of materials and fabrics

Outdoor rocks, branches and rock walls are easy to scratch the mountaineering bag. Therefore, mountaineering bags are generally made of nylon or Cordura fabric with good durability, of which Cordura is better than nylon.

4. Selection of the size of the delivery system

Generally speaking, the stress point of the backpack waist should be on the lumbar fossa above the coccyx, and the fulcrum of the shoulder strap should be flush with the shoulder, slightly lower than the shoulder, so as to facilitate the adjustment and stress of the stress band and make it comfortable to carry. However, if the size of the back is too large, it will have a feeling of falling, and on the contrary, it will have a feeling of being vertical upwards, so that the stress on the waist is not in place. After adjusting the appropriate size, the backpack will naturally stick to the back and be very comfortable.

Expanding knowledge: what should I pay attention to when choosing a mountaineering bag?

1, pay attention to the material.

Many people often pay more attention to the color and shape of their backpacks when choosing them. In fact, the key to the durability of backpacks is to make materials. Generally speaking, the material of mountaineering bag must have certain waterproof function, because it is inevitable to encounter rainy weather when going out for mountaineering. The material of mountaineering bag webbing must also be good, ordinary nylon cloth is easy to be damaged, and aromatic nylon has stronger corrosion resistance.

Step 2 pay attention to the structure

The performance of the mountaineering bag also depends on whether its structure is scientific and reasonable. Good design can not only give you an overall aesthetic feeling, but also allow you to enjoy excellent performance in use. Because backpacks need to be carried for a long time, the design of backpacks should conform to ergonomics, and users should be able to adjust their height and width freely.

Step 3 pay attention to color

The color of mountaineering bag is an easily overlooked problem, so we should choose different colors according to different tourist spots. If you want to go to a jungle where animals are infested, you'd better choose a dark backpack, which will help you hide. Bright colors will be more suitable for urban tourism or suburban tourism, which will not only bring you a good mood, but also be a good distress signal when you are in trouble.
