Guys can you help a newie here?
I need to buy a new backpack but it need to meet some criteria:
-I will use it every day to the uni, to the work, to de gym, so it must be confortable to use.
-My work consist in walking all moring form one building to another, buildings that are so crowld with people that they make a line in order to take the elevator (wich means that I need to go to a 5th floor by stairs I want to finnish my work in time).
-I will not carry to much weight but the amount of things that I am carrying nowadays make my back hurt at the end of the day. I almost sure that is my current backpack fault because it only have two stripes and that make carry all the weight on the shoulders, so I want one with chest and waist strips. Also, any tips to avoid backache is welcome.
-I planning go hiking next winter to the mountains and I want to use it. I am not camping (because gf does not want to) but I going to do some medium/hard trails.
-It need to be durable.
-In the same order of things, I dont want and I dont need something autistic big nor extremely camping oriented. Also I dont want it to be to much flashy or "out of urban context".
I was thinking something like pick related. What do guys can recommend?
Also general tips, dos and donts, "must have", etc about hiking is welcome. Thanks in advance.
