Is Osprey Atmos worth it?


Is Osprey Atmos worth it? The Osprey Atmos 65 AG is the pack that changed the game forever by popularizing the trampoline back panel. To this day, it remains one of our favorite backpacks. It is the real deal for two to five-day trips. Its overall design is user-friendly, with well-thought-out pockets to stay organized.


Why are Osprey backpacks so popular?

Osprey packs are built well, and for their weight tend to have good and comfortable weight transfer capability — before I lightened my load and switched to lighter packs, I never had a pack as comfortable as my Atmos 65 for long trips carrying a ton of food and gear.


How much weight can Osprey Atmos carry?

The Atmos was very well ventilated and held up to the 55+ pound total load (with max food, crew gear, and water) adequately. The hip belt velcro does tend to slip a bit when it is cinched down really tight for heavy load. At max load the frame felt like it buckled a bit, but I was over the rated load.


Is Osprey water resistant?

What does AG mean in Osprey backpacks?

“AG” stands for anti-gravity, and it truly seems that these packs defy the laws of physics. Like most other backpacking packs, the suspension system used in the Atmos and Aura works to channel the weight of the pack away from your shoulders and back and towards your hips.
