The Osprey Aether 85 Backpack
The Osprey Aether 85 backpack line was updated in 2010, and it will give you a comfortable, custom fit, regardless of your size and build. If you have owned one of the second generation backpacks, you know how well they work, and you’ll be excited to try the newer generation.
The Aether backpacks are the men’s version of the Ariel backpack for women. They are suitable for all types of hiking trips, whether you’re just off for the weekend, or simply taking a longer trek. The Aether 85 is a light-weight backpack that still gives you a personalized custom fit. You’ll see that the IsoForm harness is accessible in three sizes, and the hipbelt is available in four sizes, so that you can truly customize this outdoors backpack for your own personal use. If you haven’t carried an Osprey backpack before, you’ll learn about their custom molding, that will allow you to make these backpacks as comfortable as any you can get.
When you check out the newest Osprey Aether 85 Backpack, you’ll first observe that the front access J-Panel zipper allows you to get to any of your gear without difficulty and quickly. Furthermore, the alloy LightWire frame is thinner but still has the power strength you need to give you extra flexibility without adding bulk or weight. The sleeping bag stowing area has a wide-mouth design that you may have seen before.
The new Airscape back panel is a welcome part of the current backpack line from Osprey, and their Stow on the Go attachment for trekking poles is an excellent solution that will allow you to store poles without needing to take your pack off to do so. This will rest your arms when the terrain doesn’t call for poles. In addition, the compression system straps of the InsideOut quality feature can be used inside or outside, over the woven stretch pockets, in order to secure all of your important stuff. The bungee tie-offs offer you a better means of carrying other required equipment, and they keep these tools out of the way for you, but close when you do come to need them.
You’ll also find the other features you have always liked about the Osprey Aether 85 Hiking Backpack, including the straightjacket compression system that helps to keep your load secure, even when the pack isn’t full, and the side woven pockets that will hold just about any size of water bottle. The hydration bladder can be routed to the left or the right of the pack, and you can with no trouble take off the top pocket to use the backpack like a handy lumbar pack, with the hipbelt built in.
