Osprey Farpoint 70 Men's Travel Backpack with 13L Detachable Daypack

An osprey for £100 is great value and the quality is fantastic. I returned mine as it wasn't what I needed. It is 70l but the main compartment is 57 and detachable daybag only 13l which is kind of the worst of both worlds when you're looking for a 70l bagm great comfort and features but a little small for 70l in my opinion don't expect to get more than one pair of shoes in or anything. Would be great for city breaks

Good for all types of travelling, daypack is very well sized. Overall a great product. Only criticism is that if you plan on checking it in on a plane its best to get it wrapped as it will get easily damaged.

Bought this because my work assignments are invariably at clients' locations. Have had to buy a second piece of luggage (this) because the Sojourn only goes up to 80 litres and the Farpoint 65 Wheels only goes up to 65 litres. Neither Osprey or any other major manufacturer with a retail presence in UK currently have in the inventory a model of travel luggage with wheels as well as shoulder harness which is 100 or more litres. (So far have been travelling with a no-name / made in China 115 litre luggage, which after 8 years on the road should soon expire. At present there is no replacement available in the UK, only in US.)Anyway, decided that a Sojourn with Daylite pigggy backed or a Farpoint 65 Wheels piggy backed with a Daylite series of pack is not good enough, mainly because the Darlite or Daylite Plus to not have padded section for a laptop. This zipped-off 13 litre pack has given the laptop section some padding. Secondly, zipping ion and off this pack off and on the main pack is faster than detach or attaching a Daylite only those mentioned wheeled luggage.70 - 13 litres = 57. then add 65 litres of the Farpoint 65 Wheeled means I will get the volume needed for steel toe boots, inflatable life jacket, safety glasses, hard hat, coveralls, ear defenders, masks, gloves.... phew. One piece of luggage full already. Then I shall need noise meter, light meter, camera ...... for doing inspections. So I just wish some manufacturer will just make big piece of luggage with wheels and shoulder harness because Osprey, your Rolling Transpoerter 120 does not meet the spec.

I don't normally do the whole review thing but getting a good backpack/rucksack can be one of the most important purchases you make in your life (For certain lifestyles ateast).I'm a digital nomad - I travel the world and work for a living, I put alot of time and effort into finding a bag that would be secure, great to wear, look good and have some good organisation (since I live from my bag!).The Osprey Farpoint does everything I've ever needed and more - When I wear it with a full load (25kg-30kg) it feels like a mild inconvinence - I'm not in any pain, I'm not racing to take it off. If thats too heavy for your back - the bag comes with a handel so you ca carry it like normal luggage - great for airports!.Whilst on the subject of airports, let's talk about the fact that this bag was made for sticking in the hold with no worries. The bag comes with this great little 'hide the rigging' feature - it's basically material that zips around the back of the bag (where you normally wear it) and hides the rigging, so when the bag needs to be put inside an airplane hold it won't snag on the conveyor belts - It also comes with a handy little ID pouch incase it gets lost. (Neat!).All the above are all 'nice to have' - for a digital nomad organization is key, This bag pens up fulls - it's not top loading, meaning you are free to properly organize the inside of your bag with storage cubes etc. Literally a game changer if your going to be traveling for any longer than two weeks.It also comes with a smaller 'day bag' that has its own seperate storage - it's great for taking around a city for the day, but I keep mine on the bag and use it to store smaller items (I have a different day bag).I hope this review helps someone out, but I could not recommend this product more - If your a wildcamper, or going for a weekend away, this bag is overkill - if your going traveling and want to cary the world on your back without the discomfort - this is it. It doesn't get any better!

Fantastic product, If you are lucky can squeeze into hand baggage but make sure to take out the small bag as it looks bulky for hand hold bag. I have carried around 15kgs for my months trip and quality is fab. Please note this amazon product is not the latest farpoint product as advertised in osprey website, I guess this model is 2018 but doesn’t make any difference in build or compartment just the quality is much improved one in terms of material. I have done around 3 trips in this and twice I have put in checkin and no sign of any tear etc.

I shopped around quite a bit before travelling through Central America for a suitable backpack/rucksack. I advise you to read Allan's review below as it was helpful for me and I can back it up that it's accurate!I think the best feature of the the Farpoint 70 is the detachable day bag. It was priceless while travelling. Any bus, plane, car, train etc that I was travelling on that required you to stow your back pack the detachable day bag meant that I could keep all my prized belongings (passports, ID etc) with me at all times as hold luggage or with me on the seat. When it comes to moving on from this mode of transport simply zip it back on and you only have one bag to worry about carrying not two :) I would recommend that you purchase combination locks too for added peace of mind. You can put one on each of the zips, day pack and holdall.Can't recommend this bag enough!
