Whether you’re looking for a casual backpack handbag or one to use while traveling, there are plenty of options on the market. A few things to consider include size, design and special features like specialized compartments or hooks along the side, interior or front. You’ll also want to consider how much you’ll be carrying, a larger bag with more room will provide more storage while a smaller bag may be lighter and easier on your back and shoulders.
Some backpacks are geared towards hiking, so they’ll likely be large and have a lot of compartments designed to keep gear organized. Some will be fitted with a frame for comfort and stability. Others might have a plush, ventilated back panel, hip belts, sternum straps and shoulder pads for extra support and comfort when worn for extended periods. Many will be equipped with a system that allows you to stay hydrated on hikes by holding a water bottle in a designated pocket.
Other backpacks are geared towards work and school, so they’ll be large enough to store a laptop as well as books, stationery and other supplies. They’ll usually have a padded, dedicated laptop sleeve and many interior and exterior pockets. Some will even come with a luggage pass-through sleeve that attaches to the handle of your rolling suitcase for convenience while traveling.
Another great option is a women’s backpack purse that doubles as a stylish tote. It has a sleek, designer look and comes in multiple colors that function as chic neutrals. A plethora of interior and exterior pockets make it easy to organize, while a dedicated laptop pocket and a convenient front zipper pocket ensures your tech is protected.
