Product Description

Since Osprey was founded in 1974, every single product design has passed through the hands of owner and founder Mike Pfotenhauer, who created his first backpack at age 16. In Santa Cruz, California, the young entrepreneur opened a retail shop in the front of his rental house where backpackers and travelers came for custom-fit, made-to-order packs constructed over several days by Mike himself. As the demand for the great-fitting packs increased, Osprey found itself relocating to its current home in Southwest Colorado. Today, Osprey is a melting pot of diverse personalities, backgrounds and abilities. All share the common belief that adventure is open to everyone and found anywhere.

Osprey’s History

Since Osprey’s founding in 1974, every single product design bearing the Osprey name has passed through the hands of owner and founder Mike Pfotenhauer, undergoing relentless scrutiny. From stitching the first lines of custom-fitted packs, to meticulously designing innovative products with intuitive features, to forging personal relationships with the sewing operators who construct the packs, Mike has been the unbreakable thread that makes Osprey a top company.

Just received the new pack...and it's not new (Edited after receiving new pack)
I purchased this pack as a gift for my wife. I was quite disappointed to discover that it had very clearly already been used by someone else and subsequently returned. My first clue was the two missing zipper pulls on the main compartment. As I opened that compartment without the zipper pulls, I then noticed black thread embedded into the zipper, where the previous owner had clearly opened/closed the pack with some original tags still attached and hadn't bothered to extract the thread from the zipper. At this point, I was pretty irritated. Once I opened the pack, I immediately discovered that the inner gray material was soiled. Now it was clear to me that this pack had made its maiden voyage on someone else's back. Upon closer inspection, the outside of the pack was also soiled, though it wasn't as obvious as the marks on the lighter gray inside material. All this being said, when new, it appears to be a nice pack. I'm returning it for a NEW one. I recognize this review reflects poorly on the manufacturer, which may not be fair given that this issue was caused by the seller. However, if Osprey wants to maintain its reputation, it should know about situations like this. Whether or not they'll ever see this, I have no idea. Provided I get the new pack that I paid for, I'll gladly update my review accordingly, but we're off to a bad start on this one.EDIT: After returning the used pack that was previously sent to me, the replacement showed up late last week. Hooray - it was new and in its original packaging! I'm updating the review from 2 to 4 stars. It does seem to be a very nice pack and will perfectly serve the purpose for which it was purchased. It's a gift for my wife and likely won't get any trail use until next spring, but it is a well-conceived design and made of lightweight but durable material. I'd give it 5 stars, but I can't quite get past the fact that I received a used one and had to return it, so 4 stars it is. I view this as an issue with the seller more so than the manufacturer, but Osprey does have a say in who sells their products, so perhaps they should be a bit more diligent in that respect.

Excelente mochila para el día a día. El tamaño es perfecto si se quiere cargar solo unas pocas cosas junto con la compu. Suficientes bolsillos internos para cosas pequeñas. Buen material y un bonito color. Me encanta, solo falta probarla en un día de caminata.
