Osprey Waypoint 65
I really like the bag. Osprey = Quality. I am very happy with the bag, although I am now thinking that I could use the extra space and will be getting the bigger bag (Waypoint 85). I will be going on a 15 month backpacking adventure and feel that the bigger bag would better suit my needs.
I love the day pack feature. This will be a great carry on when flying. It will also be great to use when touring around. I really love this bag...

Superb Travel Pack
When we first started out looking for a travel backpack to replace our old ones that was practical, sturdy, and made for travel one name kept popping up everywhere, Osprey.
This front loading, pack is a dream for travelling around the world. The womens fit adjustable harness fits like a glove, and after a few minutes of tinkering around with it, it almost feels custom molded.
The ability to zip away the harness for when the pack is checked in is a life saver. If you've ever seen baggage handlers at work in ANY airport you'll know what I mean. The carry handles are super comfortable and wont dig into your hands like other brands do.
The sleeping pad straps work great even for larger pads (my husband has his own Osprey 65 and his large pad fits it wothout issue).
The daypack is a great addition for moving around and trekking once you've actually set up camp, or have checked into a hostel.
The only thing that worries me a bit are the zipper grips, they have worked out perfectly so far but they do feel a bit flimsy and I worry they might snap when I zip open my pack in a hurry.
Still, Ospreys All Mighty Guarantee gives the peace of mind to know this pack is built to withstand the abuse of budget travel.
Highly recommended, I am a petite athletic woman and have found no problem adjusting this pack to fit me perfectly (and I bought a medium)

Great for backpacking
Great backpack for my trip around SE Asia. Lots of pockets and the detachable day pack is perfect for every day essentials. A little wide but other than that a great backpack.

Sizing Chart
Osprey Packs Sizing Chart
Step 1 - Pack Sizing
All Osprey packs, save the transit bags, are available in multiple sizes to fit a range of torso lengths. To find your torso length, have a friend measure your back along the spine from the level of your iliac crest (the top of your hipbones) to your C7 (the knobby bone at the base of your neck).
Step 2 - Hipbelt Sizing
To determine your hipbelt size measure around your hips, not your waist. A properly fitted hipbelt rides centered over the hipbones and needs to be very snug; after all it will be carrying the bulk of the pack's weight. The padded portion should wrap well around your hips, leaving a gap of 3 to 6 inches between the tips of the pads when securely tightened.

ErgoPull
Nearly all Osprey hipbelts use an exclusive ErgoPull design. It creates mechanical advantage to provide extra leverage in cinching down the hipbelt. The ErgoPull design also draws tension along the top and bottom of the belt, not through the center, so it distributes pressure more evenly over the padding and relieves direct pressure on the hipbones.
Step 3 - Harness
Osprey Crescent & Luna, Aether & Ariel and Waypoint packs offer interchangeable shoulder harnesses. Harness sizing usually corresponds to pack size, but your best bet is to try one on. A properly fit harness should terminate 2 to 3" beneath the armpit. Webbing should not touch the body. By breaking the hook and loop connection and sliding the harness up and down the backpanel the torso length can be adjusted up to 3". (see illustration).

| Women's | WXS | WSM | WM | WL |

Step 4 - Overall Fit
Once you have the correct size pack, harness and hipbelt, and the torso length set properly, it's time to put some weight in the pack (20 to 30 pounds of well distributed weight will do) and dial in the fit. First, snug down the hipbelt and harness. Connect the sternum strap (A) - position it about 2 inches below your collarbones and snug it down lightly. Finally, tighten the load lifter straps to draw the load solidly against your back. The lift straps (B) should come off your shoulders at a 45 to 60 degree angle in Osprey's ReCurve and Ethereal Suspension packs. In other models these straps serve more as compression straps and ride flatter; they may even angle downwards.
In a good fit, there should be no pressure points and no gaps between your body and the pack. With Osprey's ReCurve packs, final tweaking may involve custom fitting the aluminum stays to your back.
