Osprey Atmos AG 65 Mens Backpacking Backpack

Just know if you buy this thing, people will think you know what youre doing. Thats usually a bad thing. Lmao

I got a great deal on one of any Best Lists top backpacks. Not ultralight & not meant to be. Designed for comfortably carrying gear for extended backpacking trips, it checks all the boxes. I wanted the AG (Antigravity) suspension/ventilation system specifically in the Osprey line but Im a shopper. Amazon came through but I shopped & waited for a great value. Strongly recommend if not UL committed. And Dueter. Also have the Vario 45+10. Another great Amazon value.

I dont understand why theres so many good reviews. This backpack is an overpriced stuff sack. I was highly disappointed. If you need to access something you loaded into the main compartment first, you basically have to unpack everything. This quickly becomes an ordeal. Also, the main compartment feels so slim. I was surprised that with the 65liter model. Everyone like it because of the aintigravity stuff, but this is little importance compared to the overall design. The gregory baltoro on the other hand is much nicer and fixes these flaws

The Osprey Atmos 65 is the go to pack for 5 day backpacking trips in my group. Its well designed and built. Carry capacity is spot on for 5 days out in the back country (depending on what you bring). I cant see myself ever using another pack. This is actually my 2nd atmos 65. The first one is 5 years old, has been on multiple trips and shows no wear/tear issues. I just got this one because blue is the best color and i wanted blue. Its worth a bit more to have a pack that will last you years.

Purchased for Mount Rainier. Very comfortable and effective.

It might weigh a little more than the lightest packs but the comfort outweighs the weight.

The only thing I could complain about is the fact that the Osprey packs do not come with rain covers. However, since I knew that going in, I ordered a separate cover from another vendor at a great price. Osprey offers a brand name rain cover with the cool logo but the price is prohibitive. Im not hiking the A/T to look good; its all about function.

Used it on the AT two after receiving it and had no problems. Great adjustments to maximize comfort even when fully loaded. Looking forward to many more hikes.

Used bag one trip! Loved it packed for second trip the following weekend and the outside zipper popped off! Osprey says online 10-12 weeks hoping when I come back from this weekend trip it will be less then that! Will redo this review after dealing with Customer service

Red is good.
