Why We Like The Osprey Talon Velocity 30L Backpack

The Osprey Talon is a tried-and-true day pack—now it's available with a running-vest inspired harness in the Talon Velocity 30L Backpack. This new harness adds easy front access to a pair of 500ml soft flasks while maintaining the Talon's lightweight build and well-ventilated AirScape back panel with its close-to-body fit. The 30-liter capacity can handle big day trips and winter layers with multi-sport versatility for hiking, climbing, skiing, and ultra-running.

This pack is a versatile

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pack is a versatile day pack for long range adventures. Whenever I go into the backcountry this pack is with me.

Almost Perfect

I've only had it a couple weeks, but it's seen a lot of miles in the mountains already. The amount of adjustability for the weight is amazing. I'm 6'3" and have a couple extra inches of extra room in the back panel, so good for tall folks. It's a really comfortable pack that moves exceptionally well, especially for its size. The biggest issue I have with it is that the roll top works poorly when it has less than about 25L in it. The hook for the cover tends to jostle loose and start flapping around. Not a deal breaker, but there has to be a better way to do it. The other change I would have liked is more room in the lower side pocket access ports to slip bottles in. For a 30L pack with this little structure, keeping your water on your waist instead of hanging in a bladder from the top of the pack would be a big win. It's looking a bit scuffed up already, so I'm not sure it would be my go to for climbing, but for hiking and fastpacking this one is a winner.

Great concept but too big!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great concept but too big! I've always worn S/M Osprey packs in the past, so I assumed that this would fit similarly. It fits right for my height, and around the hips, but it's significantly too large across the chest, even when tightened to the max. I'm returning it and replacing it with the women's tempest in hopes that that will fit better.

I have only used it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only used it a little, but I like it a lot. The pockets on the straps I like, I wish the bigger packs had them. Take Care

It's ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start with didn't find it very comfortable on my back as after wearing for few hours out had back pain so didn't help me at all such a shame it's sturdy but not for me and big bag to be fair that's a plus looks like it will last years so that's a plus
