The Exos 48 splits the difference between the 58's thru-hiking prowess and the 38's ninja-like agility. It works great for weekend trips and depending on your packing style can go way further. The incredibly comfortable Exoform harness and AirSpeed ventilated suspension combine with trail-friendly features like Stow-on-the-Go trekking pole carry to make every backpacking trip as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Our All Mighty Guarantee means you can rest assured we've got you covered if anything happens on the trail. Stripped weight - 2.27lbs, 1.03kg.

The Osprey Exos 48 combines durability and excellent features at an outstanding price. Its variety of pockets, straps, and attachment points allow for plenty of creativity if tinkering is your thing, yet its classic, user-friendly aesthetic works as-is for those who don't feel the need to modify. The Exos carries loads over 20 pounds with ease and excels when loaded down with over 30. The suspension system is one of the most developed of any pack in this review, and it provides a comfortable carry and impressive ventilation. Not only is it a pack with great value, but it is also an easy introduction to the world of ultralight equipment. 
With a measured weight of two pounds 5.6 ounces, the Exos barely makes the cut as an ultralight pack. Our review has one of the higher weight-to-volume ratios, but it stands apart from most traditional backpacking packs. Its carrying capacity is relatively small &#40;48 liters&#41;, which caters to those with an already trimmed-down kit. We were a little concerned with the long-term durability, as the stretchy side pockets quickly got holes, but we have no other concerns. The Exos is a tried and true favorite and has been around for a while; this means it is widely available online and in stores and is easy to pick up and take out on your next weekend adventure.

 The size of the pack required is dependent on each individual's torso length. I'll leave a link in the description below to Osprey's guide and how to measure your torso properly. The Asia is specifically designed to suit a woman's body with changes made to the pack shape and the design of the shoulder harness and the hip belts. Osprey have used 100 recycled materials with the main fabric being made up of Blue sign approved recycled 100d high tenacity rips off nylon with a Pcf free durable water repellent

NEW Osprey EXOS 48 Updated for 2022 | Ultralight Backpack

Back pain sufferer here - I use a frame (Osprey Exos) and a comfy sleeping pad (Xtherm). It’s worth the extra ounces to keep my back healthy.

For background, I'm a weekend warrior with herniated discs who is looking to get more into weeklong trips. I'm in good enough shape now that I'm never in horrible pain after hiking, just a little sore depending on the terrain. I've been running a Crown2 60 with a ~15lb base, but feel like it's time to downsize my pack as I've honed in my setup more and really not filling it out. 

I've been eyeing up a Gossamer g4-20 as it'd be roughly 10oz lighter, and seemingly easier to move more swiftly with. The volume seems perfect for 3 seasons, though I'll likely keep my Crown for Winter trips. I am nervous to ditch a frame despite many positive reviews, as these reviewers don't have back injuries that I'm aware of. 

Can anyone speak from experience regarding back injuries and pack weight? The crown seems like a sweet spot for weight with rigidity, but always looking to lighten the load some! 

Thanks in advance!

What is the sweet spot for backpackers with back problems? Shaving weight is good for the back, but is frameless the answer or a step too far?

 Both my boys complained about it rubbing them. Over the course of several days in the back country with heavy packs this left bruises.  My review is based on my experience with these packs. I would not buy them again if I were going to do a similar trip

  The Good: - The packs were well made and light weight. - The top lid was helpful and made sense in its design. - The access to the water bottles on the side was easy and well designed. - The trekking pole storage was clever and useful when hiking on trails

  My review is based on my experience with these packs. I would not buy them again if I were going to do a similar trip. I just don't think they're beefy enough for type of trip and weight being carried. I tried to save 3-4lbs for these boys and left them uncomfortable and bruised instead

Was it the pack or my use of the pack?

 I'll see if I can make it creek for you now, so there are some creaking sounds going on there, and that's pretty much what I hear on walks. Sometimes it's not all the time. I don't know if it changes with gradient or where the weight shifted in my pack, or maybe whether I'm standing more upright, but that's as loud as it gets, so make your own judgments based on that. And that brings me to the end of my list of pros and cons for the 2022 Osprey Exos 48 backpack

 Of course, you've got quite a bit of weight. You've got straps passing through plastic buckles so they can kind of creak and squeak as you move. And there's also a metal frame on this pack that's held under quite a bit of tension with material pulled tight around it as well. so I think where some of the creaking comes from is down at the bottom, where you've got the material wrapped around the metal frame and that just sort of rotates and moves over the frame slightly when you're walking

 These straps are a bit narrower than my Atmos 65 litre pack, and everything feels lighter weight. It's less padded. Nonetheless, I find this really comfortable to wear. I don't have any issues when I'm out hiking, and I generally use this loaded up to between 8 and 15 kilos

 I wondered if I could have got away with the 38 liter rather than 48 because I seem to have acres of space left at the top of it. But looking at the 38 liter version of this pack, you don't even save 50 grams. So for the sake of 50 grams, I might as well have another 10 liters of capacity. Pro number two is that I find this a really comfortable pack to wear

Overall good but shoulder straps pinch!

But like I alluded to, this is the video that's been three years in the making. You're talking about my long-term thoughts on the Osprey EXO's pack personally. I Went with the 58 liter for my EXO's It does come in two other sizes

 My issue with it is the design of the pocket itself. It runs a good portion of the size of the pack, but as you can see here, the way Osprey has built this one is they updated it from the older EXO's version which was just a full stretchy mesh pocket. So all this bit here was all stretchy mesh. They didn't have this solid I think this is like a hundred and ten D fabric in the center here

Osprey Exos Review! After 3 years of use.

 The NG pack isn't even light either, and the only size is for "165-175 cm recommended height", no torso length. Don't buy that pack.

Naturehike is a reputed brand in China, the international market is just a side gig to them. The sewing will be top-notch and the fabric will be original X-pac for sure, but it's simply not a bargain at all, is it? Add import fees and you are beyond what you'd pay for a new Osprey Exos, which you can try in a store and return if something isn't as expected. The NG pack isn't even light either, and the only size is for "165-175 cm recommended height", no torso length. Don't buy that pack

Found this pack on AliExpress in the $150 range. Looks to a decent lightweight waterproof pack. 

[https://www.naturehike.com/collections/hiking-bag/products/naturehike-outdoor-xpac-45l-5l-backpack-nh19bb090?variant=36345969148058](https://www.naturehike.com/collections/hiking-bag/products/naturehike-outdoor-xpac-45l-5l-backpack-nh19bb090?variant=36345969148058)

I was looking for a cheap alternative to the 3F UL 55L which is more in the $200 range.

Can hardly find any reviews on reddit/youtube though. Surely someone out there has forked out and can shed some light on it?

Anyone have experience with Naturehike Xpac 45L + 5L?

The hip straps did their job but in an effort to save on weight they have been making them steadily smaller and shorter.Now they are so short they curl up behind your back and you have to fish them out. It is annoying and I really wish they had addressed this one. The next time I buy a pack I will make sure they are not like these traps

 I had to carry so much extra clothing, a down sleeping bag, and extra food that it was a little hard to pack the first day. You would probably be fine for a 3-5 day hike in warmer weather. 

 If you've ever hiked with the old-style foam rubber backpacks you know the dread of strapping on a 3'x2' blanket in the heat of summer. Osprey excels at this part and even the shoulder straps seemed more breathable.

Light Pack, Great Suspension, Minor Issues

 These are very, very well padded. They fit very well. In my opinion, you will not find a pack that is around this weight with this much comfort also take everything. I say about comfort with a grain of salt

 When it comes to choosing your gear weight and comfort, this is a 2.6 pound bag or 1.18 kilograms. For you, european people, this pack is just slightly heavier than your ultra light packs, which the ultra light packs, in my opinion, are not nearly as comfortable as this, which gets me into

 I'M also going to give you two reasons why you shouldn't buy this bag, and you should look elsewhere so stay to the end for that. So the first and most important in my opinion, is weights when you're out in the backcountry weight is king. When it comes to choosing your gear weight and comfort, this is a 2.6 pound bag or 1

 You definitely need to take a look at this bag and the two reasons why you should not buy this bag. A lot of people are complaining about this. They do not come with zipper pockets on the hip. Straps on the new version, which, in my opinion, is kind of a bummer, but is it for sure? No for me? No, i think people like what they liked before and why fix something? That'S not broken kind of thing, but i think you can just kind of get over it and the second reason not to buy this pack is they look like children picked out the colors
