About this deal

This is a unisex bag and looks fine on both men and women. Follow the sizing chart above to find the size that is best for you. It’s the perfect bag for people like me – those who LOVE to travel light! Unless you absolutely require a ton of stuff, you’ll see that traveling light is an absolute game changer.

I first used it on a group tourof Sri Lankain 2016 and it has been a frequent travelling companion ever since. Its generous capacitymakes it the perfect choice for longer trips. Osprey Farpoint Trek FAQs Osprey Farpoint VS Osprey Farpoint Trek – Which Should I Choose? The Farpoint and the Farpoint Trek, which one is for you?While you won’t needanything additional with this bag, a few extra buys will really help with convenience, and also make up for the few cons that the bad does have (I’ll discuss cons of this bag in a bit).

When you’re out hiking and it starts to rain, the AirCover also works as a rain cover. Because the AirCover is not designed to be a rain cover first though, it may not be 100% effective. Still I find this extra level multi-faceted ability to be very impressive and better than nothing. Shoulder Strap –This is a cool feature that I found out I liked more and more as time went on. Simply attach the shoulder strap to the two designated hooks (pictured below). I wouldn’t recommend carrying your bag for long periods of time like this (especially if it’s full and heavy) but it’s nice to have to carry around a few minutes here and there, or especially if you have less weight than usual. But if you don’t spend a lot of time outdoors, then you’re better off with the classic Farpoint. It’s better suited for travel, and it is available in more sizes. I like this feature, but it mostly appeals to hardcore Osprey fans. It’s not worth it to actually buy both this and a Daylite, just to be able to switch between the two. But, if you’re already a proud owner of a Daylite or a Daylite Plus, you’ll be happy to know that the Farpoint Trek is compatible with both. Compatible With Hydraulics LT Reservoirs But as nice as it is, it’s just not large enough for long-term travel. Would I love to be able to travel on 30 liters? Absolutely! Can I? hell no. The extra 10 liters the Farpoint 40 gives you is crucial for longer travel.While the Osprey 40 could be great for school, hiking, or everyday use, it is most specifically used by and designed for travelers. It is one thing to use high-quality materials; it’s another to use them well. So is the Osprey Farpoint Trek 70 built well? The answer should be obvious. The Farpoint Trek isn't quite a trekking bag, nor is it your standard piece of luggage; it combines the best of both worlds to create what is quite possibly the perfect travel bag for those who are constantly on the move.

Osprey’s Almighty Guarantee should also be an indicator of their bag’s quality. A company wouldn’t give a lifetime warranty if it didn’t think that the product could last a good long while. If you are planning on going on an epic hike with tents, sleeping pads, cooking materials and an extra pair of boots… this is not the bag for you. The mesh/suspension area is also lined with foam to help increase comfort and overall breathability, and the light wire frame gives comfort, cushioning and great ventilation. This is because of the mesh.Osprey is one of the premier companies for outdoor equipment and started by exclusively making outdoor hiking/camping gear.

Truthfully, the Osprey Farpoint 40 is a travel bag, but it can be used as a simple hiking bag for basic day hikes. Propelling it along pavements is a joy thanks to its ergonomic T-shaped handle and smooth wheels. Cobblestone streets? Not a problem. Side tension straps are linked to the hipbelt. By tightening these straps you can stabilise the load but reduce the hipbelt flexibility. Where balance is critical tightening them can help you feel more secure. However, if you are striding out over easy terrain it’s better to loosen these straps to allow full hip flexibility. The outside of the Farpoint Trek 75 is covered in various attachment points for extra gear. From the daisy chain style loops to the mount points for the rain cover, Osprey have covered all their bases here. As a flight cover, the AirCover feels a little baggy. Unless your bag is crammed to capacity, the AirCover will sag and not look great but the protection it offers is certainly worth the downgrade in appearance. As a rain shield, I was pleasantly surprised by how well it fit.If you are interested in doing some hiking with the Osprey Farpoint 40, you’ll be pleased to see that it is very durable and very capable for day hikes or wandering around town, but shouldn’t be considered for serious camps or hikes.
