Kamarg Backpacks - The Austrian Original

Kamarg is how backpacks should be made today: Produced fairly in Europe, with minimal plastic content, extremely durable without built-in obsolescence, with real leather, incredibly comfortable to wear and plenty of storage space. Ideal for a day on the mountain, a picnic on the city beach, a week’s grocery shopping, or an afternoon at the library. Kamarg Backpacks are perfect for your everday life adventure.

Kamarg was founded in Graz, Austria in 1949 to equip Austrian mountain hikers and adventurers with high-quality backpacks. The brand quickly became a bestseller among backpacks in Austria in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1960 Kamarg supplied almost 2,000 sports shops in the Alpine region.

Decades of experience are a clear plus, especially with backpacks, where opportunities for improvement often only become apparent after years. Our backpacks carry the concentrated knowledge of materials and requirements of three generations.

Since the first edition of our daypack in 1949, over 50 documented detail improvements have been made to Kamarg Backpacks in the first phase of our history and over 15 in the second phase. And we don’t stop thinking about further improvements.

That’s why the Kamarg is so easy to wear and so much fun.
