Which day backpack suits work, school or the city?
For work, choose a model with a padded laptop compartment and a document compartment for papers. All models with a laptop compartment can also be found among the laptop backpacks. For secondary school, a large model with dividers is useful. See also the school backpacks. For a day in the city, a small model without a laptop compartment is lighter.
Can you take a day backpack as cabin baggage?
Yes, ByMetz offers day backpacks in the cabin sizes used by airlines: 40x30x20 cm for Ryanair and Transavia, 45x36x20 cm for easyJet and 55x35x25 cm for Transavia and KLM. An expandable model grows from 40x30x15 cm to 40x30x20 cm. The 45x36x20 model has a laptop compartment for laptops up to 17.3 inches, while the expandable model fits laptops up to 15.6 inches.
What should you consider for material and care?
Most day backpacks are made of polyester or recycled materials: lightweight and easy to clean with a slightly damp cloth. Wipe models made of leather, vegan leather or imitation leather with a dry, soft cloth. Leave a wet backpack open to dry at room temperature. If you often cycle in the rain, take a look at the waterproof backpacks.
