Creative and High-Performance Backpacks
Osprey was founded in California in 1974 from simple roots: a single creative person, a sewing machine and the idea of bringing innovative and robust backpacks onto the market. It wasn't long before Osprey backpacks became a mainstay among hikers and mountaineers. What began in Santa Cruz now dominates the market for solid and durable outdoor sports equipment.
Osprey Backpacks at a Glance
Osprey Hikelite – An Elite Class Hiking Backpack
The Osprey Hikelite has a capacity of 32 L and is an excellent hiking backpack for long tours. Compression straps on the sides stabilise the weight, while keeping the contents neatly stowed away. Chest and hip straps ensure a comfortable fit around the back while preventing the rucksack from slipping and chafing.
Extremely Adaptable: The Osprey Hiking Backpack for Women
Osprey offers hiking backpacks for women that will work well for single or multi-day adventures. These models have a height-adjustable back system with patented Active Spine technology, back padding and handles. One handy feature, the inside pocket can be opened from the front. There is also a height-adjustable lid with an outside pocket, a zip pocket on the hip belt, and holders for trekking poles and ice axes. A drinking system can also be integrated if required. Many models mix sustainability and functionality as they are made from recycled materials.
The Osprey Backpack with Child Carrier
When it comes to the Osprey rucksack for women collection, the brand’s stable child carriers and trekking rucksacks need to be mentioned. Child carriers are rucksacks with a built-in child seat that allows small children to hike with adults. In general, the shapes of Osprey backpacks for women are tailored to the female body in order to ensure ideal carrying comfort and place less stress on the spine. The material is also totally rainproof and breathable.
Osprey Backpack for Men – Always with You, Always Smart
The Osprey backpack for men comes in a range of subtle colours. It is available in three sizes. Small backpacks are well suited for tours of a few hours, while versions with a 46 L capacity or more will be very practical for camping holidays or treks. The Osprey Duro 6 running backpack with several PowerMesh™ compartments fits like a vest on the body, making it perfect for runners.
Osprey Backpack with Wheels
An Osprey backpack with a fold-out roll frame is very practical. It works especially well for long distance hiking trips or nearby shopping trips. Thanks to several different large inner compartments, the contents can be stowed away easily and clearly. The Osprey Sojourn 45 is a great example of how it works. With its stable wheels, it can also climb stairs and deal with bumps easily.
Osprey Transporter – Over Hill and Dale and Around the World
The Osprey Transporter 95 travel bag is a highlight of the brand’s collection. It comes with a robust and waterproof upper material, shoulder straps that can be tucked away, and a choice of four handles. Inside there are mesh compartments for utensils and a transparent address compartment. The Transporter 40 is a smaller version with the same features.
