Launching Backpack brand
Hey folks, I’m exploring the idea of building a lifestyle backpack brand and want to base it on real user experiences, not assumptions.
The segment I’m looking at:
- Everyday / lifestyle backpacks
- Office, commute, cafés, short travel 3 Mid-premium-premium pricing (₹3–6k)
- Not school bags or trekking gear
Before locking any direction, I’d love to understand where current backpacks in India fall short.
Would appreciate insights on:
- Which backpack are you currently using and why?
- At what price point do you expect noticeable quality and comfort?
- Issues that show up after a few months of use
- Comfort, weight distribution, and back-sweat problems
- Build quality failures (zips, straps, fabric, stitching)
- Organisation preferences: minimal vs too many pockets
- Features that sounded useful but didn’t matter in daily use
- Small annoyances brands tend to ignore
If you’ve bought a backpack in the ₹3k–6k range and felt it wasn’t worth the price, I’d love to know why.
Not selling anything — just learning from real users before building. Thanks in advance
