Why We Like The Osprey Skarab 22L Backpack
Made with Osprey's guaranteed durability and a straightforward design, the Skarab 22L Backpack is a classic pack that keeps us hydrated and prepared on our day hikes. A sternum strap and removable waist belt create a stable fit over uneven or steep terrain, while the AirScape suspension system keeps pack weight evenly distributed for a supportive carry.

Perfect for me
I love this backpack. I actually bought a second for my wife. They are a perfect size for a day hike, liberty Bag for overseas, or an urban adventure. I made one modification. I bought elastic cord and criss crossed it through the daisy chains to add an external way to attach bulky gear like a rolled up jack. Cannot speak highly enough of this back pack.

I love it. I gave
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love it. I gave it a pretty good workout, hiking multiple trails in Arizona over the past 10 days. The magnet connection for the water is brilliant. The pack held plenty and was comfortable to wear.
