Depends on your needs. I have been using the Gregory for my work and without the laptop compartment I favor the osprey. But on the rainy days I chose the Gregory . Tough choice
Great video! After many months, what are your opinion on: which one haver better back ventilation, shoulder ventilation and support? Also which one is more water resistant? I don't need laptop support and I am looking for the most light, comfortable and ventilated backpack, with a bit of water resistance.
Thanks for asking. The osprey has better back ventilation, the shoulder straps are better on the Gregory, support is touch they both have great weight distribution. Water resistance I think the Gregory is more water resistance. I find I use the Gregory as my work bag only carrying it for small walks and my osprey is when I am using it as day pack. I recently used the osprey all day and forgot it was there.
I do find they get tangle if I don’t put them on right. The Gregory straps after using it a lot stays flat against me. I haven’t noticed neck pain. Thanks for your comment
I noticed you had a notebook in the osprey that you forgot to take out when you were weighing the two in your hands. I wonder if that also made you feel Osprey was a little heavier. You also had some other tiny items inside the Osprey. Just my 2 cents. I do find the Gregory back to be more stiffer and cannot put my laptop in the back compartment as it’s too small. But the straps a longer which I like on the Gregory as I am a big guy 6’1” 240 pounds.
Hi. You might be right. I do think the osprey is a little heavier but for carrying my laptop I now use the Osprey. I love the straps on the Gregory they are longer and easier to handle but I dropped the bag with my laptop in it. Without a inside pocket the case cracked. I swap between them and after using them both for a while. I can’t decide which I like better. They both have strengths and weaknesses
@@ramon3077 Most companies use recycled materials, so I doubt he means that. I doubt Vietnam has DEI, so that's probably not it. Maybe some color choices look ghey? No camo, no CCW pockets? No American flag patterns? I see nothing woke about my Ospreys.
The Gregory is looking like the better option.

The Osprey top handle doubles as a luggage handle sleeve, so you can slip the pack over the handle and easily carry it on top of your luggage
Thanks for sharing. I will try this out
Great comparison, thanks!
You’re welcome
Excellent comparision, nice video!
Thank you
I'm wondering when you will make a osprey farpoint 40 test
Thank you for the suggestion. Let me try to get a Osprey farpoint

Is the Osprey bag straps hurting your neck when hiking?

Birds are cool and i don’t need another dudes name on my backpack, so Osprey it is.
Thank you for your comment. 👍
Agreed.
That's my line.
Very hard choice between those two, I would probably go with the Gregory for reliability.
It is a hard choice. You can’t go wrong with whichever you choose.
Will either one stand up on its own?
Unfortunately neither stand on their own. I usually put them down with the pockets against the table. Thanks for asking
Grégory is really more reliable ? Wondering why if you don’t mind explaining 😊
Did not get Gregory because of the shitty side water bottle pockets.
Thank you for sharing
Osprey hooks to my rook 65 backpack!
That’s perfect. Great companion pack.
Osprey went full woke .
So I will probably be buying the Gregory
You can’t go wrong with Gregory
What do you mean by that?
