Aoede AirSpeed^™ 21-Liter Water Repellent Recycled Polyester Backpack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was initially worried that this bag didn’t come with a chest or hip strap, but the 21-liter size is compact enough that it never gets heavy enough to need them. The AirSpeed back panel is subtle and perfectly designed. It’s just the right size with plenty of space and nice deep pockets.

Really great rucksack. Perfect size for everyday carry, well-thought-out pockets and design, looks good. But… the yoked straps ruin it!! On my back at least, they make it impossible to get a comfortable fit (sits too low on my back and feels like it is being pulled away from me). Sadly I had to return it. Osprey - if you can release the exact same backpack but with regular (unyoked) straps I will be a happy customer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s almost a great pack, but it does not pack very well. The packing arrangement is very poor. If its packing was arranged just like the Aoede briefpack with a shoulder strap, but keep its suspension airspeed back and ability to stand upright. Then it would be the perfect personal item backpack for traveling abroad on airplanes. So combine the Aoede briefpack packing arrangement and maybe a shoulder strap with the Aoede Airspeed. Then you would have a great traveling backpack. Wink! Wink Osprey!

typical osprey exceptional quality ,no chest strap and the hikey stuff so less dangling off , I barely fit in this harness system which I find typical on any osprey back pack sub 26 litres I wish they'd ad just a bit more strap length so im not almost all the way out on the adjustment . this is my fourth osprey and im a lifer for sure just I wish they realized that not everyone who wants a sub 26 is 90 pounds with shoulders 18 inches apart
