The Piggyback is a type of Backpack which requires 4 Pig Skins, 6 Silk, and 2 Ropes to craft and an Alchemy Engine to prototype. It is a larger Backpack which has 12 Inventory slots but reduces walking speed by 20% while equipped. It has 4 more slots than a Backpack, but 2 fewer slots than the Krampus Sack. It cannot be placed in the inventory or in Chests. The Piggyback is also fireproof unlike the backpack.

Tips[]
- This is a good replacement for the backpack until you get the Krampus Sack.
- Using a walking cane, road or other means of increasing your speed, the -20% decrease of speed becomes obsolete.
- In the Hamlet DLC, the penalty by the Piggyback is also negated by the Stalking Stick, increasing the player speed to 120%.
- The Piggyback does not give the player any rain resistance, and using it in conjunction with an Umbrella will not protect the rest of the player's items from wetness.
- In all DLCs as well as Don't Starve Together, Used with the Walking Cane, the penalty is negated and the player's speed increased to 115%.
Trivia[]
- The Piggyback was added in the Doorway to Adventure update.
- The Piggyback's name is a pun, on both the fact it is a backpack made from a pig's skin and on the action of giving a piggyback.
