As soon as I got this bag I was stoked! But didn’t want to write a review until I had a chance to really try it. After spending 2 months hiking in Idaho,Wyoming, Montana I have to say I love this bag and all the features! The size is kinda big for a day pack, But that’s what I was looking for. I purposely overloaded this bag With hammocks, Helinox chairs, stove etc to have epic picnics in Glacier, GTNP, and Yellowstone and it carried well. Did several hammock overnight trips in it with a ton of room to spare. Features are smart, what you would expect from Osprey. Has all the features of a heavy haul pack in a size 44L. Sizing is generous Got the L,XL and it fits really well. The only changes I would make and it’s not enough to shave a star off is I would have liked ... MoreAs soon as I got this bag I was stoked!

The only changes I would make and it’s not enough to shave a star off is I would have liked a longer zipper on the lid, there’s plenty of room in the brain just the access zipper is a little short which is a little tough getting things out. Also the side stretchy pockets have 2 access points, the angled ones work great however when you put your Nalgene in vertically it’s a little tough getting it out, especially when pack is loaded. Overall If your an oz counter and minimalist, this bag may not be for you. If you want a comfy bag with loads of features check this one out!

Great build quailty, lovely rain cover but after 2-3 hours it becomes too uncomfortable to wear. Its survived falls, drops, rain, snow and still looks new. The padding is there and works with a lighter load and is more comforable with 2-5kg of weight.

Great multi day, I packed a quilted sleeping bag, tent, trekking poles, water supply, weeks worth of food supply, weeks worth of socks and undershirts, two pants and various other items. They all fit great and the adjustment straps make everything well balanced. I got the smaller size, but I wouldn’t recommend the smaller size unless you’re really petite. This is coming from someone who is short; I have trouble getting my arms through the arm straps.

Used this up in the Boundary Waters for it’s first trip. Had lots of rain and water covering it while paddling and everything inside stayed dry. Was super glad to have a comfortable pack during our long portages. Will recommend this pack to everyone I know!
The pack is big and can fit a lot of things in it but packs really small when necessary. Very light but durable, Osprey lifetime guarantee is great to have. Comfortable to wear when not overpacked.
High quality pack but the opening for the hydration bladder is very tight. Had the same issue with a Talon 26 that I tried a few months ago. Had to return both packs. Opening on my six year old Talon 22 is much easier to use.
I used this for a day hike trip with my wife. It is gery spacious inside the bag so I my wife placed all of her stuff in it. Surprisingly it didn’t hurt my back at all!
The product description describes the "Talon 44 was designed with ultralight multi-day adventures and travelers in mind.", and for that reason I have to citizen this pack.Backpacking packs generally fall into two camps, ultralight and minimal, or bulky and overbuilt. Unfortunately falls into the latter camp. For the small/medium being just 42 liters, I'm surprised it weighs nearly three pounds, the is actually heavier that the previous version of this pack that I read reviews for.What I do like about it is that it's made of bluesign-approved recycled material, the trekking pile holding feature is convenient, and the combination of the Airscape backpanel and hop pads feel nice with how they hug your body.What I do care for with the pack is that it just has too ...

The side stretch panels annoying with the compression straps that just get in the way and make it difficult to insert/remove 1 liter plastic bottles from them. The pack was clearly intended for the use of a hydration bladder. The bottom access panel is useless once you place add a pack liner to the bag and I'm afraid the zipper hardware is going to tear a hole in the sleeping bag. The combination of the brain and cinch cord access make it a pain to access the main compartment. And lastly, there are straps everywhere and it's not made clear what connects to what.I ultimately decided to return this to REI and and instead purchased a much more minimalist and lighter pack from another company which had a well thought out design for a ultralight multi-day backpacker.
It is a beautiful and light backpack, but I had two problems with it. The first one is that I was under the impression this will help my back sweat a little bit less, but that does not happen, making sense since I sweat buckets.the second one was the dealbreaker, and I used it twice, both times I adjusted the backpack to come up on my waist ()back, but it moved back down, and I have a backache, so this was not for me
I use this bag every day for the last few years, its wearing pretty well nothing has broken with a lot of heavy use and hardly any signs of age yet. Ideal for work, hike or holiday. Great all round day bag small enough to always have on you and not feel encumbered with anything to excessive. Overall I am extremely happy with this purchase and would buy again once mine becomes past repair or uncomfortable due to age.
