What Real People are Saying about The Osprey Atomos 65:

.

“The 09 Atmos 65 pack is almost perfect in every way. Since 1977 I mostly do winter camping/hiking in New England and the Atmos fits most all I need for cold weather weekends.”

“I can load more than I can imagine….it’s durable and the camelback pouch is great!! I love all of the storage locations….definitely plenty of room.”

“I have been very happy with this pack on several weekend trips. There is plenty of room for everything. A zero degree bag fits into the zippered lower portion of the pack, and can be accessed either via the outside or top compartment.”

“he Osprey Atmos 65 backpack provides a great balance between form and function. Having used many backpacks over the years, this is by far the best of the bunch from my experience.”

What Real People Are Saying About Osprey Aether 70:

“I’ve bought this bag two months, I had no chance to use it until last weekend, a two day camping trip. I put all my clothes, tent, food, cook set, slippers…etc in it, but the bag still have a lot of space, maybe 70L backpack suitable for the longer trip. In this trip I walked about 10km, and I don’t feel tired(my pack is about 40lbs).” – by Chi Leong

.

“This is a great backpack, it fits all of my winter clothing and my gear and leaves plenty of room for food and water. The quality is great and although it is not the lightest backpack, the comfort more than makes up for it.” – by Benen from Adelaide, South Australia

.

“It’s great for moderately heavy loads (I like to do day hikes with heavy packs). It’s also great for weekend camping trips as there is plenty of space for whatever you need to bring (within reason of course).” – by Matt from Odgen, UT

.

“This pack was the first pack I picked up that I instantly loved. The hip belt’s strapping system is beautifully designed for quick and easy adjustment, in fact all of the fastening and adjusting straps are strung and angled for perfect function and ergonomics. The more time I spend witht the bag the more I realize how smart every detail was crafted on this thing of beauty and usefullness.” – by James

Osprey backpacks are always of high standard, the quality and workmanship in these bags last a lifetime. You can be rest assured that this backpack will probably out last you… the grand-kids will love it. Check out the Osprey Aether 70 BackPack (Fall 2010)

What Real People Are Saying About The – Osprey Atmos 50:

.

“I carried this bag for 10 days in Europe this spring. Small enough to carry on a plane, but big enough to hold clothes and shoes for Ireland, France, and Spain in mid-March. It can be awkward to pack because of the curve, but is phenomenally comfortable to carry. I’ve never seen a better bag this size.” – Jacob from SOMERSET

.

“This pack was well thought out and designed. The way it forms to the back is the key to the comfort. I can fit my tent,sleepin bag,food,clothes and all the gear for a week and still have room to spare. I would strongly suggest to take a look at this one. Hope to see ya on the A/T.” – William from Mt Airy

.

“This will definitely become my favorite backpack. It’s got the perfect size for almost all activities. The ventilation works good enough, it’s not heavy at all but still fits like a glove on my back and it’s got very sophisticated extra’s like the trekking pole attachment (never thought it would be thát usefull, but it is!!).” – Jimmy from Asten

.

“Spent 4 weeks in Central America and lived out of this pack the entire time. Provided amble space and tremendous comfort…actually felt kinda lonely without it on my back. Plenty of storage space and while considered a weekend pack living out of it for a month was so choice.” – Bill from Los Angeles
