Osprey Rucksacks
Even before you begin your adventure activity, the first thing that needs to be done is to choose a good quality rucksack. And needless to say, the choice must surely end with osprey rucksacks.
Started in 1974, by an avid hiking enthusiast Mike Pfotenhauer, osprey rucksacks have become synonymous with quality and innovative designs.
They have won several awards and accolades including the Best of Adventure Award for their Osprey Raptor 6 backpack at the National Geographic Adventure Magazine Awards for 2010.
Here is a list of popular Osprey rucksacks;
Osprey Raptor 6:
This award winning backpack is preferred for its lightweight and detailed designing. In fact it’s a surprise that even with the design details; the backpack does not weigh more than 2 pounds!
Among its features are included an easy-fill HydraForm reservoir with a bite valve that shuts, opens, and rotates easily and an AirScape suspension system that provides a mesh molded back panel for better padding and ventilation.
The straw from the reservoir is magnetically stuck to the strap, thus enabling comfort when drinking, even as you run.
This backpack is ideal for mountain biking as the special design allows for enough room for biking tools, and other things including snack bars.
Osprey Atmos 65 for Men:
As the name suggests this rucksack is designed for men and comes with a special aluminum frame and suspension system that supports the back.
As with all other designs of osprey rucksacks, these come with shoulder harness and hip belt to allow custom fit.
The Atmos can hold a weight of up to 55 pounds and is ideal for weeklong treks. It also comes with a trekking pole attachment that allows for storing or removing poles even without removing the backpack.
There’s also a drinking tube for the hydration pack that is old separately.
Osprey Waypoint 60 for Women:
It’s a known fact that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all backpack; they are as unique as the humans back! Osprey rucksacks have understood this well and have hence come up with separate rucksacks for women.
These are ergonomically designed and grow narrower around the neck (women are known to have a narrower back as compared to men).
This also has a detachable day pack that can be zipped from the back. Thus, your daypack is completely secure and safe.
And there’s enough room to hold water bottles and other knicknacks.
Osprey rucksacks with wheels:
If you aren’t going to walk for long or a large part of your vacation entails idling on the beach, osprey rucksacks with wheels are simply ideal.
The Osprey Meridian and Sojourn are two of the many models designed with wheels.
The Meridian for instance comes with zippered top packets, side pockets, and external zippered pockets.
There’s also a laptop sleeve to allow you to comfortably slip laptops with a screen size of 15.4 inches in.
Immaterial of the design that you choose, be assured of the fact that Osprey rucksacks are the best in the industry.
