Osprey Packs Kestrel 38 Backpack - 2200-2300cu in

December 29, 2008

Oliver - I have a very long torso also, and had the same questions. For me it was between the Talon (which uses the same adjustment and M/L size as the Kestrel) and the Stratos. The Stratos definitely allowed the hip belt to be on my hips and carry the weight better. Keep in mind that the Stratos has a frame (see other reviews) so that could be a problem, depending upon how you may use the bag. For me, the fit, and excellent warm weather breathability won the day.
