An Intro To Swiss Army Backpacks

By Fausto Capello


VICTORINOX, in addition to Wenger, is among only two chief makers of the prominent Swiss Army knives. In recent years, they have extended their company to manufacture other fine products used by not only the army, but by explorers and campers all around the world.

VICTORINOX is becoming world famous gradually because of their popularity as craftsmen and designers and hence they are the best makers of the Swiss Army backpacks in the world now.

Since the earliest days man has been using the backpack like thing. The archaeologists are of the opinion that the cavemen carried their hunting tools, daily kill and other items in a backpack like bags and these backpacks were made of knot-tied animal skins. These cavemen would not have anticipated then that one day a company would come forward to design a backpack that would be used to carry even laptops.

Swiss Army backpacks are supplied in every shape and size today. They are manufactured out of light weight sturdy material that will provide a great strength without feeling the burden of the weight.

Swiss Army backpacks are used for everything from the common camping and carrying of supplies to executive lap top carriers. They are supplied in a variety of fashionable colours including beige, camouflage green, powder blue and even bright pinks and purples.

Swiss Army backpacks are made in three different methods. The frameless backpacks come as simple sturdy cloth held by two shoulder straps. Students choose this kind of backpack. There are several features attached to the frameless backpack including an outside pocket and zipped compartments. In these compartments one can put coins and pencils.

Explorers and military people use the external frame packs. This kind of Swiss Army backpack is made of cloth supported by lightweight aluminium poles. These poles stick out and facilitate the carrying of thermal blankets and tents too. The backpack material can be lifted off of the back thereby making the job of carrying easy.

The internal frame backpack is much the same to the external frame. The main difference is that the poles are heavier and located on the inside of the cloth. These Swiss Army backpacks are favoured by campers and travellers. Internal frame backpacks are carried close to the body. The material is weightier and the carrier tends to sweat more.

Swiss Army backpacks are being created to meet the demands of today's high tech world. There are now backpacks made especially for laptops, cameras, cell phones, and every other electronic gadget on today's market.
