Do you remember the days when you had to visit your local shoe shop and have a stranger manhandle a pair of shoes onto your feet? It was an essential step to enjoy your time at school. Similar principles apply when it comes to discovering the importance of rucksack fitting. With a multitude of brands and models available, it’s essential to pick the right one that fits and behaves correctly. Even if you choose a pack that looks good and fits well, the chances of finding the perfect one are slim, and you may end up with a product that makes your time outside unbearable. An ill-fitting pack not only causes discomfort but also incorrectly loads the weight on your frame, resulting in a shorter lifespan for the pack, as well as your joints and muscles. The solution? The humble rucksack fit.

Trekitt’s Commitment to Rucksack Fittings

Ever since Trekitt was a baby business back in Abergavenny, weve offered rucksack fittings to our customers to ensure theyre getting the right product. This involves asking a few questions such as what the user is doing with their pack (are they alpine climbing or hill walking?), how long theyre planning to use the pack for in one outing, and whether there are any features that your potential pack needs to have. These questions will determine the size and genre of pack you require, but theres still the question of fitting.
