Osprey Europe Men's Kestrel 48 Hiking Pack

Product Information

Comfort is increased by using more padding inside shoulder straps and hip belt. This is a major update for everyone - but especially for folks with bonier hips Let the moisture out, but don't let the inside get wet: this water-repellent model is here to keep your things dry by preventing moisture from penetrating through its fabric while letting the water vapour that forms inside escape. With a waterproof cover, you'll be sure that your belongings will be safe from moisture in no time at all. For a Better World You should also be aware that the Osprey Kestrel comes in a smaller 38l version. When you pit the Osprey Kestrel 38 vs 48 there’s not much difference besides the sizes of the bag… obviously! So when it comes to choosing whether to opt for the Kestrel 38 vs 48, it’s all about which size of bag works best for the type of trip you’re heading off on and how much gear you think you’ll need. Cons of the Osprey Kestrel 48 When we reviewed Stratos 36, we found it excels in ventilation and comfort, but compared to the Kestrel 38, it performs poorly in terms of convenience and gear capacity.

If truth be told, you can’t put a price on Osprey quality or comfort… Does the Osprey Kestrel 48 Come with a Rain Cover? It is something in between the two. Something that you can take with you for a camping trip that is not lasting longer than a week. It’s not sewn to the bag and can be detached if needed, so you can take it out and dry separated from the bag. Or if you just want to use the pouch for other stuff. Did I leave anything out?

More adjustable & robust front pouch - in addition to mesh, now it's being made using also nylon so it compresses your items inside further and secures them more. They're also adjustable using compression straps now Ospreys Customers Service is also pretty awesome and the repair centres’ communication and turnaround times are very commendable. Superior external gear attachment capability since the lash tabs at the top now are expanded further so it can bear more stuff

Joseph, E. M. (2013, December). Know the body: muscle, bone, and palpation essentials. Elsevier Health Sciences, p. 346 Osprey’s lifetime warranty ( dubbed the All Mighty Guarantee!) is pretty unique in the industry and is definitely one of the best things about the Osprey brand. Or maybe an epic one-day hiking trip, when you need a lot of extra supplies and you are not sure if you are going to need to stay for the night too.This is another essential feature. Having a rain cover is absolutely crucial for most hiking or travel adventures and you should not set off without one ( OK granted, there are some places on earth where it never rains, but not many!).
