Pro-grade functionality, inclusive sizing and
prestigious certified bluesign® Product
designations honor a 50-year legacy in cutting-edge
pack design
CORTEZ,
Colo., Oct. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- For 50
years, Osprey Packs has been a leader in creating top-quality,
high-performance innovative carry solutions for extensive outdoor
activities, including backpacking, hiking, biking and running. The
brand will mark its golden anniversary in 2024 by dropping a
dynamic wave of new products across its technical pack range,
honoring boundary-pushing performance. From Pro Series and
Extended Fit expansions, to the launch of the light and fast
Talon | Tempest Velocity, the brand is helping all
adventurers enhance, extend and enjoy their outdoor pursuits. In
tandem with its pursuit for quality, Osprey is advancing its
holistic sustainability efforts with its 12 core technical product
families carrying prestigious certified bluesign® Product
designations by spring 2024.
Pro Series
Osprey expands its Pro Series with
progressive gear specially engineered for outdoor professionals.
The five-piece range offers elevated function and features with
unrivaled quality and durability. As most notable seasonal
additions, the updated Aether™ | Ariel Pro ($400.00) combines the brand's most capable,
load-bearing suspension with a versatile, simplified bag design to
reduce pack weight to a minimum. Boasting a 75L capacity, the
Aether™ | Ariel Pro
is best suited for bigger mountaineering or backpacking trips, and
the toplid, hipbelt pockets and side compression straps are
strippable to tune your carry and further reduce weight. The Pro
Series also sees a newly designed Talon™ | Tempest Pro.
The versatile, multi-sport pack has an all-new updated framesheet
and improved sizing across three volumes: 40L ($260.00), 30L ($230.00) and 20L ($200.00). This seasonal iteration is lighter
than previous generations with a new, slimmer LidLock that works
with more helmets, including climbing and biking. The updated packs
have a technical bluesign® approved NanoFly™ fabric
construction, reinforced with triple-grid UHMWPE ripstop, providing
outstanding strength and durability.
Talon | Tempest Velocity
With light-and-fast
multi-sport versatility, the all-new Talon™ | Tempest
Velocity is designed for experienced, active adventurers who
want to tackle big pursuits at record paces. The pack pairs the
award-winning features of Talon™ | Tempest with a soft-flask
compatible, running-vest inspired harness and a uniquely designed
backpanel that allows for free movement. The design also allows for
up to four inches of torso adjustment to optimize fit, while
pockets placed on the chest harness, pack sides and hipbelt allow
for quick access to essentials. The Talon™ | Tempest Velocity comes
in two volumes for men and women: 30L ($200.00) and 20L ($180.00).
Extended Fit
Osprey introduced its Extended Fit (EF)
line in 2022 to deliver a more inclusive fit and optimized
performance for bigger bodies. Extended Fit enhancements include:
extended hipbelts designed to fit up to 70-inch hips, extended
shoulder straps, repositioned pockets and longer sternum straps.
This season, Osprey will add EF sizes to top-selling technical
styles: the Rook | Renn™ 65 ($190.00), suited for backpacking; the Raptor
| Raven 14 ($175.00), designed
for mountain biking; and the run-oriented Duro™ | Dyna LT
Belt ($30.00).
bluesign® Products
Consumer products carrying the
certified bluesign® Product label meet strict safety and
environmental requirements. They must be made of bluesign® approved
materials and produced in a resource-conserving way with a minimum
impact on people and the environment. With the spring 2024
collection launch, 19 Osprey pack families, nine accessory
categories, and four special edition pack series, will carry the
bluesign® Product certification, including best selling technical
packs: Aether™ | Ariel, Talon™ | Tempest, Atmos | Aura
