I am not a backpacker (already 68) but, wow, there are so many options!

I love my Osprey backpack! I’ve used it on a lot of weekend trips and have been able to pack it with a lot but still travel comfortably. The shoulder straps are really well padded!

A quality pack with good weight distribution goes a long way. We backpacked through Thailand last December and it was amazing how good of a job our packs did in holding all our stuff and still wearing well.

I don’t use a backpack like these but I have thought about getting on for future travel. They seem very well designed and like it would possibly be a good thing for me to have! From your list I am most interested in the Numinous Packs Anti-Theft

Wow, who knew there was so much to consider when choosing a backpack? Interesting read. I prefer the Deuter ACT Lite 35+10 one but I would base it solely on which one I found to be most attractive and how the pockets would hold my stuff.

Looks very practical. They seem to have been designed well for travel.
I am on a traveling spree these days and was always wanting something more easy to take along. Thanks for these choices.

This post couldn’t have come in better time. I’m planning a trip to Indo and since I’m bringing a board bag, I’m researching on the best backpaks. Loved your tips in the end on how to choose the best backpack. Couldn’t agree more with some of the essentials you have to look for.

In reply to Tamara Wilcox. I travel with a backpack full time...and this year, I've vowed to stick to just a carry on bag. They are pretty light weight and super flexible!

These are very nice looking bags. Tell me, when you travel by plane or are not backpacking, do you still use one of these for your only bag? I’m not a backpacker, but these bags look like they’re more lightweight and more flexible than your typical carry-on sized suitcase.

Great guide – I don’t generally need this kind of backpack, but should I do so I’d definitely revert to your guide as a way to find the best pack for both men and women
