Osprey Europe Men's Kestrel 58 Hiking Pack

Product Information

With all that in mind, bring along a quality pack like the Osprey Exos 58 and you will be sure to enjoy all of the adventures this planet has to offer. Apart from the mesh pockets spawning some holes, nothing has actually broken which is quite admirable these days when things are made to last a season or two. You’ve just made it through my obscenely long and detailed review Osprey Kestrel 48 pack review, which contained no fewer than 2 expletives, 2 biblical references, and plenty of other nonsense. They must be opened and lengthened, or even fiddled out of the top loop of the daisy chain, and then fitted over the handle, closed, and lashed down. Take care not to knock the sternum strap clip off of its rail – this is pretty hard to do – as it is a real pain to reattach.

Newly released in 2018, the women’s specific Osprey Eja 48 liter is the female version of the Exos 58 pack. It is the difference between actually enjoying the hike and feeling like Jesus carrying his cross to Golgotha. The bag also contains a large U-shaped zippered opening on the front panel of the bag to allow easy access to contents.The Kestrel 58 is fully hydration compatible with a clever external sleeve making replenishing your bladder quick and easy. Like most ultralight hiking packs, the Osprey Exos 58 design does not feature a special compartment for your sleeping bag. Where ever your Osprey Exos 58 liter backpack takes you in the world it is very important to remember to be mindful of your impact on that place. KG so if you want to keep your base weight ( ie, the weight of the backpack when it’s empty) to a minimum whilst still having plenty of carry-comfort power, then the Kestrel 48 was designed for that exact purpose. The more expensive backpacks in this range are usually pricier because of added features and durability.

When the weather takes a turn for the wetter, you absolutely need to keep your things dry, especially your sleeping bag! Nearly all of Osprey backpacks offer an internal sleeve into which you can slip a hydration reservoir plus 1 or 2 “hose portals” through, which you can slip the sip tube. An “Atilon” flexible frame-sheet spreads the load across the entire backpanel to the peripheral frame.If the back length of the pack is correct the shoulder straps will be flush to your shoulders whilst the hipbelt sits in place comfortably.

At the Broke Backpacker, we totally love Osprey backpacks because they consistently produce quality packs and gear that is durable, comfortable, and affordable. For me, this took some getting used to, as I was so accustomed to having my sleeping bag zone separate from my main pack belly. Available in a range of different capacities from 36-litre to 68, there’s a model to fit any type of multi-day adventure, from weekend micro adventures beyond the city’s boundaries to full-blown expeditions in the Yukon.The interior architecture, which provides the backpack's stability and transfers the weight to the carrying system and distributes it, is made up of 3 mm thin spring steel rods that do an exceptional job. The ingenuity of the Stow-on-the-Go™ pole-carrying system means poles can be attached to the bag without even having to take it off.

I am a big fan of this feature as it makes it easy to drink your water (it would be a mistake to put beer in your reservoir) during the hike. But I like dividers with a zipper-construction more because this really separates both compartments totally.Even though the Kestrel 58 is available in two back lengths, the AirScape back system is adjustable to ensure the perfect fit using a simple, yet highly effective, Velcro pad on the shoulder harness that can be easily set to various heights depending on the user. He likes to waste what little free time he has by making underwhelming trance music as Mothers Mantra. Aiden first began working with TBB way, way back in the pre-internet days of 2016 after hanging with founder Will in Venezuela. It has also proven to be a practical backpack because of all it’s pockets and the ways to get in to them.
