      Are the perfect solution for short trips or weekend gateways. They also make for a great small hiking backpack. But did you know there’s more to these small champs? Read on to find out what is so special about daysacks and why you should get one (or two) yourself.

      Simply put

      Daypacks are the smaller, more nimble cousins of backpacks. They are designed for carrying your essentials during shorter outings, typically lasting a day (hence the name). You can use them for various purposes.

      Volume

      Their volume should be around 15-35 litres. Anything smaller than that will be considered mini packs/bum bags and may not be enough to bring what you need for a day out. Here’s our guide to picking the ideal size for your daypack

      FAQs

      Although they share some similarities, both have their own share of unique features and purposes, enough to put them into different categories.

      Essentially, backpacks can work as day bags if they are small enough.  But the same can’t be said the other way around, as they would have to be bigger and more sturdy, which they aren’t.

      Daypack

      • Small and lightweight (15L-35L)
      • Simple design, few compartments
      • Suitable for short trips, daily activities

      Backpack

      • Large and may be heavier (20L-70L+)
      • More complex design with multiple compartments, straps, and attachment points
      • Made with long trips and heavy loads in mind.

      A day bag, also known as a daypack, is versatile enough to be used in various situations and environments; almost anything you want. They are typically geared towards carrying all you need in a day, whether is a day trip, school, commute, a cafe run, etc.

      The flip side is they are unlikely to be a good pick for specialised activities such as technical climbing, camping, or heavy-duty backpacking.

      The answer is different depending on each individual’s needs and wants. Generally, most can get two days of travel in comfort with 30L-day packs. This size is ideal for carrying the essentials needed for a couple of days, such as a change of clothes, basic toiletries, a first aid kit, and a small laptop or tablet. It's a popular size for urban travel or short outdoor trips where bulky gear isn't required.

      If you want to hike and do some backpacking, we recommend opting for the larger 30-40L volume. Besides the essentials, you can bring extra clothing, a small tent, or additional gear. 

      On the other hand, if you travel somewhere casually with a warm climate, packing an 18-20L daysack is doable. But you have to really know what you are doing and may have to do some laundry.

      In a day bag, you typically carry essentials needed for a day's activities. Packing your day bag depends heavily on what you plan to do, but here's a general guide to get you started. This is just a starting point. Adapt your packing list to match your chosen activity, duration, and personal preferences.

      • Water bottle or hydration bladder (2-3 litres for longer outings).
      • Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, umbrella
      • Map, compass (if needed)
      • Phone (with offline maps downloaded).
      • Maps, guides & tickets
      • First-aid kit
      • Snacks and food (pack high-energy foods like nuts, bars, trail mix, and sandwiches)
      • Headlamp or flashlight
      • Hand sanitiser and tissues.

      For most, a 30L or less is the magic number. Neither too small nor too large, this capacity is comfortable to many as they can pack around 5-6kg for a balance between comfort and speed.

      Fastpacking with a 20L capacity is doable but only possible when you have figured out what travel gear works best for you. Start small with your local routes and someone who knows what they’re doing before hitting the trail.
