HUGGER, which takes the same high-end route as DabbaWalla, pays more attention to the durability of the product, and is also more exaggerated in design, whether it is dense prints or 3D three-dimensional animal shapes, it is highly recognizable in the crowd.
HUGGER specializes in parent-child products, and the same color can be seen on both adult and children's bags, but adult bags are currently more difficult to buy in China. The products are all made in China, and the water-repellent polyester fiber material used in the backpack is not as soft as DabbaWalla's MIT neoprene, but it is more wear-resistant and not easy to break, and the back is designed with a breathable net, which is more comfortable to carry for a long time than DabbaWalla. Generally speaking, backpacks with waterproof coating will affect lightness, but HUGGER's children's backpacks weigh around 180~250g, which is lighter than DabbaWalla. However, the water-repellent coating may wear out over time or due to multiple washes, and the water-repellent function is not long-lasting.
HUGGER is not inferior in the configuration of accessories, its zipper is the same as DabbaWalla's YKK products, and the fastener supplier is NIFCO, a Japanese professional fastener company, which can withstand a pull force of 56KG, and the sewing process follows the standard of a mountaineering bag, which can be described as reliable and durable.
HUGGER's children's backpacks can be divided into three series: Totty Tripper, Animal Buddies and Little Monster according to shape and performance.
The Totty Tripper print is cute and colorful, and the backpack uses a honeycomb strap for soft and breathable straps. According to different sizes, it is divided into two models, S and M, and the price is about 200 yuan. There are more than 20 Totty Tripper models in the S, with a leash, and a weight of only 180g, which is very lightweight. The M size is relatively large, there is no leash design, and although the weight is 20g more than the S size, it is still a lightweight children's backpack.
The Animal Buddies series is an animal-shaped 3D three-dimensional backpack with a leash and chest strap that costs less than 300 yuan. Like LittleLife's swim bag, the shoulder strap is ergonomically designed with several thick breathable foam pads to form air grooves, which reduce the pressure on the back while dissipating heat, giving children a better carrying experience. But after all, it is not a professional swimming bag, so it is not as waterproof and lightweight as the LittleLife swimming bag. Instead of a zipper, the closure is an adjustable pouch buckle similar to a shoulder clasp, which makes the bag more flexible and easy to access.
Little Monster's backpack design is very special, its animal shapes are "big at the top and small at the bottom", like an upside-down cone, the top of the backpack has a large zipper opening for easy access, the backpack looks similar to a swimming bag, but its fabric is more three-dimensional and stylish. Like the Animal Buddies series, the weight of 250g is less than 300 yuan, but the backpack of the Little Monster series has a elastic mesh on the side.
