Osprey Tempest 30 Women's Hiking Pack

Product Information

The straps can also help you carry gear on the outside of your bag, like a tri-pod, waterbottle, or sleeping pad. The 30l size is perfect for a long weekend, its fairly similar to Mary Poppins’ carpet bag, in that it seemed to never stop expanding even with all my tech and a full weekend’s worth of clothes in there. Yet it still fits comfortably within the size restriction for hand luggage. Great Fit The Osprey Talon 33 has an external hydration reservoir! Osprey Talon 33 Rain Cover: Is it Included? Finally, we deem this perfect for minimalist travelers. If you aren’t carrying a sleeping bag, tent, mess kit, food, etc. the Talon 33 is a great travel bag, as it is lightweight, comfortable, and easy to carry on any type of transportation. Injection-molded AirScape framesheet with die-cut foam provides a close-to-body stable fit while offering flexibility and ventilated airflow channels for active use

The Tempest is the woman’s version of Osprey’s Talon range, to some brands, this would mean taking a product and then either covering it in swirls and flowers, or only having it available in purple or magenta, erm or pink… if you don’t like those colours you are often screwed.It’s a bit small for long camping trips, but will hold up perfectly for 1-2 nights as it has a comfortable suspension system, hip straps for distributing weight properly, and durability to handle up to 30 pounds.

Downsides? I’m struggling to think of many, but the position of the upper strap isn’t fab across my boobs. It would be alright if I were a bit smaller, but I think if you were really chesty, this may cause minor discomfort. VerdictThe Gregory Jade 28L is one of the most expensive bags in the lineup, but it acts as an overnight crossover and offers incredible support and comfort for longer adventures. The Osprey Tempest 20 is an exceptionally versatile bag that works well for a wide variety of activities, offering a high performance across all metrics for a moderate price. Meanwhile, the REI Trail 25L is a solid contender for nearly a fraction of the cost of other similarly performing bags, making it a great value. Comfort

Seamless lumbar-to-hipbelt body wrap and BioStretch seams offer maximum flexibility without sacrificing stability for dynamic body movement As I discovered from continued use, the Tempest is as useful on a day hike, as it is bunging your stuff in and heading to work. But the test I wanted to put it through, was city hopping across Europe with some outdoorsy action at the end. I only wanted to take one bag, and I wanted it to work for everything I had planned.The Talon series at Osprey comes in multiple sizes, and the 22-liter version is also quite popular. Osprey often has multiple sizes for their series, but it’s important to know that more often than not, different sizes also means different features.

And most importantly, our tester Jody Appleton, a Peak District-based walker and climber, absolutely loves it as an all-day, every-day, mountain companion. Basics The underside of the top lid is a great spot for your your toothbrush, make-up, and other personal items. It is also a safe place to store copies of your passport and eletronic cords.The shoulder harness and hip belt are made with BioStretch materials, die cut EVA foam and stretch fabrics so they flex and move with your body for un-restricted movement when scrambling, climbing and trekking. But while this bag is perfect for some people (including myself), it’s not as ideal for others… So to help you, I’ve put together this monster review of the Osprey Talon 33.
