Product description
Compact walking backpack for multi-day tours
Remains compact and still offers plenty of storage space, the Exos 48 walking backpack from Osprey! It’s made from a water-repellent and durable material, plus there’s plenty of space for equipment and food in the main compartment. You can store small items in the lid which, if necessary, can also be removed. Additional storage space is provided by hip belt pockets and elasticated pockets. Your walking poles can be attached to the side of the backpack and the lower section has straps for attaching a sleeping mat.
Individualised fit for more comfort
The length of the back is adjustable so this backpack will fit you perfectly. In addition, breathable panels on the back provide good ventilation. Padding on the shoulder straps and hip belt effectively prevent pressure points, while the compression straps keep the contents of the backpack secure, especially when it’s not completely full. A compact partner for trekking!

What do you think about that?
This is what other customers say:
I've been using this bag for nine years already. It's good and I like it because it's lightweight and good carry system.
Disadvantage - one section of the bag and loading from the top only. If you have placed a sleeping bag or anything else on the bottom, you need to remove all items to find this one. But - if you have bought this bag, you must take into account this specific and no cries anymore :)

Very good compromise between the comfort of carry and the lightweight. I use this back in the 3 seasons, in the Carpathians Mountains.

No shoulder strap mesh pockets for water or GPS. You have to take the pack off to access the side pockets which are next to useless due to the crazy strap system for tightening up the load. The belt pockets are only useful if you have amazingly long arms...the loops on the zippers are too short and they are practically impossible to do up once they are open. I used this on the West Highland Way and at the end wanted to throw it in a dumper.
On the plus side it's not that expensive and is comfortable to carry, just annoying to have to take it off all the time.
Osprey should also consider colour coding their straps, there are so many dangling from their packs that it's difficult to know which one to pull on. Infuriating, especially after you have taken it off for the gazillionth time and are being plagued by clouds of insects!
