Am I the only one here who has an Osprey pack

“Well... Am I?”

“Indubitably”

“i bought one.

i didn't like it.

i took it back and got a gregory.”

“Rats!”

“I wanted to buy an Osprey Aether this spring. Simple & lightweight. They came out with a new style with all kinds of garbage on it and I can't find last year's model. Any suggestions?”

“Steal Tarpy's”

“ Osprey Packs

I have the older Osprey Finesse, before they turned everything into a straight jacket.

The AETHER 36 took its place.

I do however think the straight jacket style is going to be the wave of the future.

I had wanted the finesse for a long time and decided to go with the old school finesse instead of the straight jacket version.

My pack is bomb proof, and very well designed. I wouldn't trade it for anything.”

“Compare these features to a Kelty pack!

“I am sick of this never ending debate over gear. my gear is better then yours, my gear has this, my gear has that. Take you gear and shove it up you stupid redneck backpacking asses, and go to hell while you're at it, YOU STUPID FREAKIN DICK MUNCHING CRACK BABIES!!!!!”

“Kiss that new baby with those lips?”

“I have an old-style Finesse too, along with the Vector Summit add-on for multi-day trips. Love it!”

“Hi. I'm new around here and have never tried crack or much dick munchin'. I do however have an Osprey pack. It's a highlander (4500) and it's the only damn shoulder harness that would fit my slopy shoulders. Most of the other packs I've tried seemed to be built for football players. Either that or i really am just pear shaped. sigh....”

“Violin, I really like your style, LOL! Ha!”

“The best gear for you is whatever gear works best for you. The thing I like about a forum like this is that I get to hear new ideas and opinions. When looking for new gear, I might look at a suggestion that someone has made and take that piece of information into account when I decide what is best for my needs.

I, for one, enjoy hearing other people tell me what works best for them.”

“all gear sucks if you don't use it.”

“Safety Yellow Rules Man!”

“I've got an Osprey Xentih Pro.
running girl has an Osprey Impala”

“Own two. One straightjacket type Skylark and a oldstyle Finese. They re-did the whole line for 2002. I love their stuff! The company has a great staff. For me who you buy from is more important than price.”
