This bag is simply amazing. Travel on any airlines with it as a carry-on, then transform it into a hiking backpack to take your gear everywhere!

Do you think I could pass this bag under the RyanAir carry on guidelines? It says max. dimensions are 55cm x 40cm x 20cm so it’d just be a bit over
How tall are you? Is this the S-M or M-L model?
Thanks!
Is this bag comfortable?
Great backpack, but after you bring out the backstrap can you hide away the big zipper flap?
Have you been able to successfully bring this as carry on for budget European airlines like Ryanair? The dimensions are technically a few cm too big
Hey great review! I did a review on the same pack on my channel and would love some feedback 🙂
Cheers,
Have you traveled on Ryanair with that bag as carry on luggage?
So where on earth do you put the flap when using the shoulder and hip straps??
Bag fits a 15in laptop not 16.
here does the big flap go when you pull out the backstraps?
Well, I’m a dissenter: presentation was a bit awkward, and I think you should have been a little more conversant with which straps were for what before posting this video, and you passed over how to store the rear flap which covers the backpack straps when not in use (which I think is rather funky, compared to the much nicer system on say, the Porter 46). But thanks for posting that, regardless; it takes courage to put yourself out there like that. Kudos.
I know someone who’s flying from Indiana to Georgia(long flight) so there will be two planes to board right? Will she need to buy another plane ticket here or will she be told to go straight to the next plane so she can get here?
When you’re wearing the shoulder straps and waist belt, what do you do with the panel that covers them ? ? Just let it hang down ? ?
How would this backpack compare to a Go Ruck GR1..?? curious to know which would be better.?
great review,thanks
Definitely the best review I’ve seen of this backpack, so thank you! One question though, is this pack in black? For some reason I keep seeing a greenish color to it, but then again I wear glasses so I could just be blind. Thanks again!
The Osprey Porter 46 is so much better…
He doesn’t know how to pack, lol
terrible presentation, very little info, skip
Is it too big to be used as a daypack? i really don`t want to pack in a daypack into my backpack.
lets take priorities. if you get stuck in the Ain in July in Rockport with all those cloths with the hotels filled up you will need to walk all night so as not to freeze to death. that happened to me. carry rain gear and a light shelter. i carry a 20oz down quilt. have a small canister stove and a titanium pot with a water filter some rice and beens. cary just one shirt and 1 pants and also have a multitool.
Hey I also did a unboxing / review video about the osprey farpoint 40. Would be nice to get some feedback 🙂
is it fit under the seat?
Great review! I did a review of the same bag on my channel, check it out for comparison 🙂
I’m looking for a backpack I can run with and fit my Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu Gi and Boxing Gloves – any thoughts on if this model would work?
is this color black or dark green?
Stop reviewing products if you don’t put the link in the description
ifyou cross the compression straps into an x it holds stuff even better.
Thanks for the awesome review! I just bought mine for study abroad in Germany.
Good review – liked seeing you struggle with the compression straps and zips as it showed the deficiencies of the pack while also showing its packability. It looked like the compressions straps cover the water bottle holders – is this right? It looks like it makes them unusable?
Would have been nice if you actually reviewed the strap system, especially the comfort level of the hipstrap.
Do you think it is possible to carry on 2 of these 40 L backpacks?
One backpack for clothes and one backpack for electronics?
ordered this today, because im going back to southeast asia in little over one month! its my third osprey, and they’re only getting better – the materials and build quality are top-notch, and im looking forward to not paying extra for checking in baggage.
Do you know of anything like this only slightly smaller as the M/L one of these is 53cm tall and the s/m (which I cant actually find anywhere) is 51 and Etihads limit is 50cm. It is really a pain because the width and depth are under by quite allot, Just irritating that the shape is slightly off as this bag looks fantastic.
it is a great bag…i will add molle to the bottom
this video should have been prepared before producing it. I do not throw clothes like in a bag like the video….it should have been realistic…Do it over…maybe use packing cubes as well…shoes…socks….electronics…..chargers etc. make it real…
Jeez, what was this: How not to pack your bag???
Never seen anyone packing up so cluelessly and wasting so much space.
Congrats on 100K Subscribers :)) Good video.
Thanks for the review 🙂
