Daypacks

Stylish and functional: Daypacks and daypack backpacks for everyday life

A daypack holds everything you need for one day. These small to medium-sized backpacks are mainly used in everyday life and for leisure, but are also suitable for sports. Women’s daypacks and men’s daypacks must be sturdy and, above all, designed to be functional. VAUDE daypacks and daypack backpacks are also manufactured in an eco-friendly way.

Daypack or daypack backpack: what’s the difference?

Daypack and daypack backpack seem to mean the same thing: a backpack that holds the contents for one day. Nevertheless, a daypack is not always the same as a daypack backpack. What both types of backpack have in common is that they have a carrying capacity of between 9 and 30 litres. Smaller daypacks of around 9 to 15 litres are more suitable as urban, town and city backpacks while larger backpacks are suitable for shopping as well as for sports.

Daypacks: urban, city backpacks

Daypacks look particularly good when strolling around town or for everyday use. Contemporary backpacks with an urban look go very well with elegant office outfits as well as casual wear. Even the smallest daypacks have room for the essentials: a smartphone, wallet, keys, handkerchiefs, a small water bottle and all kinds of odds and ends can be safely stored inside. Modern materials give a city backpack that elegant touch. With their adjustable carrying system, some VAUDE daypacks can also be worn as shoppers.

VAUDE daypacks are also perfect for work, university and school. Special backpacks for the office are designed to fit standard laptops and A4 documents and can be securely stowed in a separate compartment. Separate compartments with pen holders, zips, removable organisers and a well-thought-out layout make these city backpacks incredibly versatile. A padded back and good ventilation ensure that it feels good to wear. VAUDE daypacks are equally suitable for men and women.

Daypack backpacks: sporty and functional

Daypack backpacks are usually larger backpacks with more volume of up to 30 litres. Daypacks backpacks tend to be sportier and also ideal for day hikes. As with the smaller daypacks, good ventilation and a high level of carrying comfort are important. Side mesh pockets mean a water bottle or energy bar is quickly at hand during sporting activities. Daypack backpacks are ideal for women and men. Reflective trims and a flashing light holder provide extra visibility when it starts to get dark. A reinforced base prevents the daypack backpack from tipping over, so it can stand on its own. You can find VAUDE daypack backpacks for hiking here: sporty hiking backpacks.
