Osprey Tempest 20 Women's Hiking Pack

Product Information

AirScape™ backpanel with foam ridges for ventilation– On my trip, I found that the AirScape back panel pretty handy. The Tempest 20 features a zipped front panel access that lets you get access to your kit as quickly and easily as possible; you can pretty much open up the whole of the pack and see all the contents. We expect the updated version to perform very similarly to the model we tested, and we're linking to it in our review. The Osprey Ultralight Stuff Pack and Sea to Summit Ultra-Sil each weigh just a few ounces and fold down into a package smaller than your fist.

However, it's lightweight and impressively packable, with a large enough capacity to get you through a day stuck in the airport or the office.For example, keeping hydrated is easy with external hydration access, or you could also keep water bottles in the stretch mesh side pockets. The small pocket at the top zips tight and has an extra layer of fabric to waterproof it, so it works well to protect any valuables. Durability: The 70D Nylon was not the toughest I have used, but the 100D packcloth on the backpack’s bottom is more than adequate.

We combed through online user reviews to look for durability concerns and patterns from the hundreds of other day packers out there. That said, our testers think that 20L is still a very solid size daypack for the needs of most day hikers. A few of our top-rated bags we've been testing for several years now, but all models went through a minimum of several months of regular use and intense testing. Montane's new lightweight hill and mountain pack treads the thin line between weight saving and usability with assured flair. The AirScape back panel is made of foam covered by a mesh, with ridges that allow airflow between your back and the pack.However, we can't think of another bad thing to say — this small pack provides full support and is ready take on any adventure comfortably.

The padded section of the hip belt on the Tempest isn't the biggest, so it might not wrap as far around as you'd like. We think that it offers an exceptional level of versatility and usability and a good level of durability that makes it very worth what you'll pay.When she is not writing about travel gear and various destinations she has visited during her travels, you can find her playing with her two dogs. Featuring a continuous-wrap harness and hipbelt and injection-molded AirScape™ backpanel that moves as you move down the trail.
