The Osprey Atmos 65 Backpack Combines Features for Comfort and a Smooth Ride

For both serious and casual hikers alike, the Osprey Atmos 65 backpack is considered an investment. If you don't want your back and shoulders to pay the price, then take the long term view.

The Atmos 65 is designed for comfort. Equipped with the the AirSpeed suspension system, a mesh back panel with side ventilation and perforated waffle foam on contact points eliminates the hot spots.

The LightWire alloy frame supports the pack for a snug and tight fit against your body, a hallmark of packs.

The BioStretch mesh-covered harness and hip belt provides even weight distribution for added comfort. All of these distinctive features allow for excellent air circulation to keep your back cool and dry.

Hikers prefer the Osprey Atmos 65 for its overall lightness and design features that keep the load close for a smoother ride and options for load distribution without too many extra straps.

As a top loader, the Atmos 65 combines a large main compartment, a removable top pocket, two vertical zippered pockets and an open stretch front pocket.

One minor annoyance mentioned by some buyers is that the pack does not sit up on its own without a sleeping pad to prop it up.

Overall the Atmos 65 receives high marks from many hikers who have switched to Osprey products from other major brands.
