What are Backpacks?
Backpack, also known as a rucksack or back sack is primarily a bag or sack which can be carried on one’s shoulders with the help of straps and hence it makes carrying weight easier by distributing the load in the bag evenly across the body while travelling.
Backpacks are mainly used by students and hikers, travellers etc. As it gives them easy mobility by keeping the hands free while still carrying all necessary things, clothes, laptop, and books etc. In these bags. These bags work on the simple principle that the muscles of the hips and thigh are stronger than the shoulder muscles and while ascending a slope or hill, the weight can be balanced between the upper and lower body parts. Moreover, the bag on the back side helps one to keep their balance and momentum intact while walking, especially while ascending and climbing a mountain.
Different Types of Backpacks
Backpacks are available in different shapes and sizes, designed for different purpose, bags made of a variety of materials, waterproof backpacks, backpacks with locks, backpacks with detachable bags, folding backpacks, leather backpacks, backpacks for kids, those with USB port and several new designs are being created every day to adapt to the changing lifestyle.

One bag doesn't fit all
As much as you'd like to be economical and practical, trying to use one bag for absolutely everything will not work - you do need different backpacks for different purposes. Thus, instead of looking for a bag that can do everything, first identify the biggest need for one - it could be for office, travel, casual use - and then find one that serves that need best.
