OspreyAura AG 65L Women's Backpacking Backpack, Enchantment Purple, WXS/S

Purchased as a birthday gift. Recipient tried on in store to see if it fit. Ordered from Amazon due to price difference. Recipient has used in extended backpacking trips and reports no issues with backpack. Slim, lightweight, and high quality product.

This is very smartly engineered. I can load it up with all my gear and it doesn't feel heavy. I've gone on several hikes with this and was pleasantly surprised. The only issues are the main compartment is huge so you will want smaller pouches for small free items. My hips were a little tender a day after a hike from the hip belt. I would buy this again and will buy this brand if I need a larger/smaller backpack.

This backpack is the most comfortable pack ive had even with hauling 35pds of gear and food on a 5day trip down the Grand canyon. I was able to fit all essentials and my extra camp shoes and had no issues love the side pockets for snacks and the water pouches are nice u can grab your bottle while the pack is still on. Didnt have any issues and the weight was unnoticeable and no pain from wearing the pack my last backpack hurt my shoulders so bad , like i sd felt like i wasnt carrying any weight at all. Totally worth every penny

I used it for a recent 40 mile backpacking trip and it was incredible. Awesome pack. It was extremely comfortable and held everything I needed without being too heavy. The frame was so ergonomic and allowed air flow for a very comfortable hike. The pack itself is lightweight so didn’t feel heavy once it was packed with all the gear. I would absolutely recommended this backpack.

So I love Osprey packs. I've owned several over the course of my 20 years of backpacking. Was really excited when I got this one because I love the fact that it had the multiple compartments on the front. And I love the fact that the brain has two separate zipped components to store things in to find easier. And I also love that it had a built-in rank cover. However I only gave it four stars probably should only give it three because the hip belt has absolutely no padding. I am extremely tiny around my waist. The hit belt would cause extreme rubbing and bruising to the point that I had to make a padded hip belt to put on the inside of the hip belt. Had I not done that the trek would have been miserable. Every pack I bought from Osprey I've had a hip belt issue. But this one in particular has absolutely no padding on it and I know we're trying to be more cautious of the weight with our gear. I'm an ultralight backpacker but I had to get a different pack to go to Philmont because it my ultralight pack will not carry Philmont weight. My concern is not so much the hip belt padding My concern is the fact that on the bottom side of the hip belt when the pack is on you can feel that material that is used to build the hip belt just digging in.

I have nothing bad to say about this pack! Feels great and is very lightweight.

I love, love, LOVE this backpack! I previously bought the 50L in the same model, and I love that one as well. I'm planning to hike the AT in the spring, and I need the larger size to carry my camping gear plus my bear canister. I can pack everything I need into this bag, and it still feels like I'm carrying nothing. I purchased a ULA Circuit to hike across Europe in 2019. After 100 miles, it felt like I was carrying a ton of coal on my back. I met a man at an outfitter in Cahors, France, who introduced me to this Osprey Anti-Gravity bag. What a world of difference! He only had the men's model, which I bought anyway. This bag distributes weight so well that it feels like I'm hardly carrying anything. When we returned home, my husband inherited my bag and I bought the female model in the 50L size. I hike with it all the time, and I absolutely love it. I'm keeping the 50L for shorter hikes and am using the 65 for when I have to have all of my gear. The price has dropped $20 since I purchased mine, but it was still $75 cheaper than my local outfitters' price. I'm a happy camper!

I’m 5’4 about 155 lbs. this pack was amazing . Nothing on my hips or back hurt. Carried about 40lbs on the AT trail. Of course, please get fitted first to make sure you know your size and try it on. But this was 100$ less than REI so of course a steal!
