Osprey Kyte 36 Women's Hiking Pack - Mulberry Purple (WS/WM)

Product Information

Internal versus external hydration sleeve:While the Sirrus 36 has an internal hydration sleeve, the Kyte 36 has an external one. An external hydration sleeve would be preferable for a couple of reasons. Having your hydration bladder on the outside of the main compartment means that your gear is protected from spills. If your hydration reservoir bursts, and external hydration sleeve will mean that your gear will stay dry. Also, an external hydration sleeve makes it easier for you to refill the reservoir.

These bags are also made to last, which is greatly appreciated in a modern age where most things seem to be built to be replaced.The base compartment features an internal divider which can be used to split the load whilst still allowing longer items such as tent poles to fit, this compartment has its own zipped external access. The Osprey Kyte line is built specifically for women! It comes in two sizes: 36 and 46 liters; where as the men’s version (Kestrel) comes in sizes 38 and 48. Side tension straps are linked to the hipbelt. By tightening these straps you can stabilise the load but reduce the hipbelt flexibility. Where balance is critical tightening them can help you feel more secure. However, if you are striding out over easy terrain it’s better to loosen these straps to allow full hip flexibility.

Want to make sure that you have enough space for all of your gear? And external hydration sleeve will not take up extra space within your main compartment, leaving room for more of your gear. The Osprey Kyte 46 has several competitors even within the Osprey brand ( a bit of sibling rivalry never hurt!) There is also a zippered sleeping bag compartment at the bottom. This helps to keep your sleeping bag nice and dry throughout the day. Above the sleeping bag compartment are straps that you can use to secure your sleeping pad. Convenient gear attachments

Need to secure your bicycle helmet or some trekking poles? The Kyte 36 has bungee tie-offs that you can use for this purpose. Apart from these tie-offs, the front panel has a daisy chain for extra attachment points. The best part about Osprey is that the Kyte 46 does not compromise comfort for weight. The way I see it: what’s the point of going lightweight if it doesn’t feel comfortable. Isn’t that why we keep our bags light in the first place!? All of our women's clothing is shown in UK sizes but many of our brands use US sizing too, for reference we have included a conversion. The Kyte is also ready for winter duties with twin ice axe loops, an integrated and removable rain cover and multiple lashing points across the front that work well to secure crampons. Finally, the spacer mesh harness and hipbelt help you support the weight while remaining comfortable and breathable.
