ive got the 65l version and its a great bag you don't notice the weight due to the anti gravity system my load out last weekend was 13k including all food and water and it felt really comfortable if i had all that weight in my kestral 68 it would of been a different trip all together so i fully recommend these packs unless you're an ultralight geak 🤓
Boy, that's heavy. My Atom Packs Mo50 and my Tarptent Double Rainbow Li are together still 10oz lighter than this pack.
Unless I'm blind it looks like they've done away with the most useful feature of most big Osprey packs, that being the Stow and Go fittings. I use trekking poles a lot and find the stow and go system to be mandatory for my needs. Glad I went with the Exos 48 now. Got 3 Osprey packs now, Stratos 36 for Winter Day hikes (my 1st Osprey pack and got it 2nd hand for a steal), Atmos AG 65 for Winter camps, and the Exos 48 for spring/summer camps.
Thank you for this great review. I wore one for a mile and was blown away how well it carried weight as opposed to my old Kelty trap/shoulder killer pack from 1999. Over 5 lbs but pretty damn amazing that you won’t feel that weight too much.
Which one would you get for the same money, an Aether or this Atmos lt? Cannot decide... I only could try the Aether. Mostly will be used for multi day backpackings, around 15 kg, but ofc it can change later. I prioritize comfort. Hard to decide whether the AG system is needed or not.
I just want to buy ONE backpack for ALL seasons and compress it down if I'm carrying less in the warmer months. Any (affordable) suggestions?
I desperately wanted to love this pack (well, the ladies version) but I just couldnt get on with it. The hip belt dug in in the wrong places for me and I just found it much too constricting- getting in and out of it is an artform! But it's fantastically well made and a worthy investment for someone who gets on with it. Ive ordered a couple of gregory packs to try as a possible contender 🤞
It's 1.7kg, is it just me who finds that far too heavy? its a really comfy back pack but it just feels like over kill if you have a reasonably lightweight set up.
I kind of wanted to exos 48 but 100d main fabric is pretty thin imo. I wanted something similar to my exped lightning which had a 200d main fabric and still is only like 1.3kg. does the atmos ag Lt 50 actually weigh less than 1.9 when not including the rain cover? So actually 1.8? Would you say this is far superior to the exos 48?
I know it’s a framed pack but my big 3 weigh less than that put together!
After watching your awesome video of the Osprey packs line up, I ordered ao the Kyte 48 and Aura 50 AG. I looove the Aura! ❤ When i got the first AG on in the store last week, the Ariel, i was so amazed. I seriousely thought she had missed a bag of weight, or two.
Doesn’t get better than this 🤞🏼🔥
Excellent, in-depth review on a nearly perfect backpack. Unfortunately no lower access/sleeping bag compartment so that's definitely a deal breaker for me. The search continues. Atb.
Great timing, I was looking at getting the 65 version next month.
Hi. Great review thanks. I saw your review on the Kestrel 48 that is a bit cheaper. It seems you like it a lot too. What do you recommend? Should I go for the Kestrel or the Atmos and pay the extra?
Struggling to decide between the AG LT 50 or the exos 48 for mountain hiking hot and humid weather. AG 50 fit me well, and was more comfortable and ventilated than the Zulu 45. Unfortunately nowhere near me where I can try on the exos or focal
I wonfer if side compression straps get in a way to get water bottle in and out on the go from side pockets?
i had before aircontact 70+10 or 65 +10 not remember exactly. 2016 version brown. there a bottom poccket for maybe sleeping bag. osprey LT dont have it. how did you use it? it is so annoying every time take out all stuff to get 1 thing. depends how you pack the backpack but anyway when you use it everyday long period of time in some expedition or maybe adventure real one it is bad dont have real pocket on a bottom. it is one from 2 cons for me. second cons it is heap belt very long for me, i have not long heap radius. but i am 176cm height. other without LT version is very heavy and ugly, with not necessary futures. maybe you can explain gow you use it without bottom second pocket.
How does this Atmos pack compare with the Unltd 64 for comfort and weight distribution?
What is the load limit for lite series?
