{"title":"Vango Backpacks","description":"\u003ch2\u003eVango Backpacks for Day Hiking and Multi-Day Trekking\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVango backpacks cover the range from compact day packs for a full day on the hill to large multi-day rucksacks for routes that span several nights. The range includes back systems matched to the demands of each type of trip - a day pack is built around lightness and quick access, a multi-day rucksack around transferring load to your hips over hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow much capacity do you need in a hiking backpack?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a full day's hiking with layers, food and water, 25 to 35 litres is the right range. For a multi-day trekking route with a tent, sleeping bag and mat, 50 litres or more is needed to carry everything without overstuffing. Going slightly larger than you think you need is the better mistake since a pack that is too small forces you to strap things to the outside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow should a hiking rucksack fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA properly fitted multi-day rucksack transfers most of the weight onto your hips via a padded hip belt, not your shoulders - the torso length of the pack needs to match yours for this to work. Day packs are less critical for precise fit given the lighter loads, but a chest strap and padded back panel still make a long day on the hill noticeably more comfortable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy a Vango backpack from 53 Degrees North?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e53 Degrees North is an official Vango stockist and specialist outdoor retailer where you can try a pack on and get it fitted properly in store in Dublin and Cork.
