I'm not very big on apocalypse preparation, but I do spend one hell of a lot of time carrying a backpack.

I'd suggest a cheap duffel bag for storage and a backpack that you actually like and use. Backpacks come in a variety of constructions, with waistband, shoulder straps, access, and attachment points that all work well for some folks and are horrible for others. You really need to find something you like, toss 20+ pounds in it and carry it around the store for 30 min or so. A good pack will stand up to years of abuse, but you won't use it if it hurts. It's worth the effort and money to buy one based on fit, rather than anything else.
