Backpack Guide – choose the right backpack

A backpack for every occasion

Choose a backpack based on how you intend to use it. Will it be used as a school bag, gym bag, computer bag, or as a hiking backpack?

Here at Biltema you will find several different models, in different sizes and with different functions. In our range you will find, among other things, a fold-up backpack and one with a built-in chair. Perfect for when you want to rest your feet during long day trips in the forest.

Computer backpack

The computer backpack is perfect for those who commute to work by public transport, bicycle or on foot. There is also room for today's school materials for  students.

Backpack for day trips

The backpack for day trips is perfect for the trip back and forth from training, excursions and much more. It is also a good alternative to the diaper bag and can be placed both under the stroller and on the back, depending on needs, while there is room for everything.

Travel backpack

The travel backpack has much more space than the backpacks that are more for everyday use. This makes the travel backpack perfect for weekend trips and trips where you pack light. It can also be used for equipment-heavy sports and leisure interests. In the backpack there is also room for all the heavy and big school books.

Backpacker/hiking backpack

The hiking backpack has volume for swallowing everything from storm kitchens, warm outdoor clothes to sleeping bags and tents. If you are going to travel around the world, or go on trips with a lot of equipment, a large version of the travel backpacks is a good option.

Frequently asked questions about Backpacks

What size backpack is best for hiking?

It depends on how long you will be away, the weather, and how much packing you need.

How should I pack a backpack?

When hiking, heavy things should be packed close to the back and preferably at the top to make it as stable as possible. Things that you want to reach easily should be packed in the backpack’s compartments.
