Retailers are expanding their backpack offerings to cater to different consumer segments, ranging from luxury goods to budget-friendly travel gear.

Aldi is introducing its ‘Live in Style’ range, which includes lifestyle backpacks starting at €7.99 and specialized travel options. A notable item is a 28-liter or 29-liter cabin backpack featuring an integrated vacuum compartment designed to compress clothing for maximized storage. This model is intended to meet carry-on requirements and includes a padded compartment for electronic devices.

Specifically, Aldi is launching a 29-liter travel backpack designed to assist travelers, such as cyclists, in maximizing space. The product features a vacuum compression compartment that utilizes a valve to reduce the volume occupied by soft items like clothing, thermal wear, and accessories. Measuring approximately 30.5 x 20 x 40 cm, the backpack includes a main zippered compartment, various pockets, and adjustable straps. It is priced at €19.99 and is scheduled to be available in Aldi supermarkets in Spain starting September 12, subject to stock availability.

In the premium market, Liebeskind Berlin is offering high-quality leather options, such as the Alita Backpack M, which is crafted from grained cowhide leather for professional and casual use.
