Osprey Packs Talon 33 Overnight Backpack - 1900-2000cu in

This bag is big enough to fit all my layers for a winter day trip or a tarp-and-bag summer overnighter. The hip strap is sturdy enough to make heavier loads comfortable. It works for smaller trips too, with straps to adjust the size of the main compartment. Oh, and it is incredibly light! This is my first Osprey pack, I like it a lot.

Very nice features for a pack this size - more bells and whistles than I expected, and very good value for the $. Very comfortable, nice adjustment options, well balanced. I do agree with other reviewer on the clasps/buckles - they seem a little bit flimsy, and I can only hope they will hold up in the long run. Just did 4 days fast-packing in warm temps, and this pack fit the bill.

top notch! light. hasn't ripped yet. wish the clips were color coded b/c there are so many...

Nice pack. Works for what I use it for. Day cross country skiing trips. Nice and light. Love the hip-belt pockets. Water bladder setup works well. The hip-belt system can be somewhat cumbersome to adjust with gloves on.

Talon 33 is a great overnight pack or daypack. We have 2 in the family and really enjoy them. It is comfortable, light weight, durable, has capacity for overnight.

After reading many good reviews on this product (mostly from people who didn't pay for it) I was excited and went out and bought one. I had very high expectations. I bought this product for fast packing, basically short overnight trips. The backpack is very light. It fit all I needed for my overnighter in Kentucky, but I have two complaints. The adjustment to get it to fit well and feel good took me a long time. I was playing with the straps most of my trip. Secondly when I used the hydration pocket and my Camelbak bladder was full it pushed on my back and made a good fit impossible. So overall this is a good light backpack. Doesn't hold much, but overall I am happy with it.

I researched a lot of packs and finally decided on this one. It's chock full of features and beautifully and intelligently crafted/designed. It's perfect for long day trips and maybe a very lite overnight. The main problem for me was the rigid plastic ridge on the upper back of the pack. I have very little body fat and the ridge rubbed to the point of causing a major sore spot by the end of a 9 hour hike.

My wife and I recently took a 3 day backpacking trip in Great Basin N.P. and the packs held all of our gear and still had extra room. It is very durable and has plenty of outside pockets and gear loops.

Great day/overnight pack. Very light and very comfortable. buckles don't look durable but they work well. Water reservoir takes up quite a bit of room making the main compartment a bit narrow. Pack fits securely making it great for scrambling or climbing. All in all very happy with my purchase.

Bought this pack for long day hikes and lightweight overnight trips. Used primarily in the desert the suspension system is well ventilated. The pockets are easily accessed and the buckles and strap systems are intuitive and easy to use. I have a long torso, the pack is fully adjusted beyond the third marker but it is comfortable. The top pocket is easy to open, even with gloves on. The energy gel pockets on the shoulder straps are mounted a little high but they're still usable. I tried this pack and the Ultimate Direction Speedemon and chose to keep the Osprey.

I'm on a 3-month trip thru SE Asia and just picked up the Talon 33 and I'm really enjoying it. It's incredibly light and well built at the seams. While it has the air vent against your back, it still heats up in warm weather. Also b/c it has a soft frame, if you carry a lot in the top flap, it can make it difficult to get into the main part as the bag doubles over. All in, I like it!

A nice light pack with plenty of "at hand" storage. The hard contoured back panel makes it comfortable and ventilates well but makes it difficult to pack large or hard items. Straps and buckles seem wimpy.
