From occasional use in sports to the no. 1 trend accessory: women's rucksacks are currently more popular than ever. No wonder, because they not only offer masses of space, but also come in a range of impressively on-trend shapes and designs. At Afound we stock a wide selection of women's rucksacks. You'll find traditional leather options as well as elegant, minimalist models and futuristic backpacks.
For a long time, women's backpacks were only used for sports activities or city trips. Until just a few years ago, nobody would have called a backpack stylish. Today, however, it's one of the most popular fashion accessories of all. The great variety of colours, shapes, features and materials available ensures that women's rucksacks have become the go-to option, no matter the occasion. While we go for casual models for sporty activities, there are sober options for the office and sophisticated ones for parties. Nowadays, the rucksack can easily compete with the classic handbag.
Women's rucksacks are true everyday all-rounders. There's plenty of room for your wallet, keys, smartphone, laptop and water bottle. Depending on how big it is, there's often also space for shopping, spare clothes and other things. Padded extra compartments provide convenient storage for delicate items such as smartphones and laptops. Depending on what you need them for, choose from large or small women's backpacks in simple or striking designs. The options are endless – there's a backpack for almost any outfit. A rucksack distributes the weight evenly so it's comfortable to carry on your back.
Women's rucksacks come in a host of different colours and prints. A small leather backpack in black with gold buttons is the perfect party accessory. A medium-sized backpack will let you stash everything you need for your day at the office. Colourful, patterned women's rucksacks are an invitation to go hiking or cycling on long, hot summer days. At Afound we stock a huge selection of women's rucksacks, so you're guaranteed to find the one that ticks your style boxes.
Women's rucksacks have shot up the popularity scale in recent years, going from being used only for sports to serving as all-singing, all-dancing solutions ready for any situation. In today's world they're no longer merely functional items – now, they're right on trend as well. Women's rucksacks come in a huge range of colours, shapes and designs. Whatever the occasion and dress code, there's bound to be a backpack to match.

Regardless of the model, you shouldn't wash your rucksack in the washing machine. You can remove dirt from synthetic backpacks using a damp cloth. To remove sweat stains from the straps, use soapy water and a sponge. It's best to avoid using soap on leather backpacks as soap will damage the leather. You'll need specialist leather care products that are applied with a cloth to look after leather backpacks. You should regularly waterproof your leather rucksack so it retains its dirt-repellent and moisture-repellent properties. If your backpack gets wet in the rain you can hang it upside down or, alternatively, stuff it with newspaper. The paper absorbs the moisture and your backpack will dry out faster.
Packing your rucksack the right way has a big impact on how comfortable it is to wear. As a general rule, make sure that the total weight of the rucksack doesn't exceed 25 per cent of your own body weight. You should aim to pack all your equipment in your rucksack and only attach luggage to the outside in exceptional cases. Pack light luggage such as a down jacket in the bottom compartment. Heavy items should be stored as close to the body as possible at shoulder height. Heavy items include, for example, water bottles or provisions. Medium-weight items such as jeans and other clothing can be stowed in the upper outer section of the pack. Small items such as keys, mobile phone and wallet should be stored in the top compartment so you don't have to spend a lot of time looking for them.
You should adjust your backpack so its weight is distributed evenly across your body and your back is protected. To do this, first loosen all the straps and adjustment buckles. Next, place your rucksack on your back and position the hip belt over your hip bone on your pelvis. Adjust the shoulder straps so you can still comfortably stretch your arms forward. The next step is to tighten the chest strap until you achieve a comfortable fit. Use the load control straps to modify the fit until it's just right.
