The Kestrel Series provides great looking forward thinking design in a multi-user technical pack. Designed for the outdoor enthusiast looking for a "quiver-of-one" the Osprey Kestrel 38 Daypack pack offers all the features needed for everything from a long trek to quick peak assault. Features include a HDPE foam framesheet, AirScape backpanel with tri-section - ridged foam - central air chimney, along with spacer mesh covered EVA foam torso with adjustable harness. Additional details for this top loading backpack include hipbelt sewn on zippered pockets, ice/gear loops, and front/side stretch woven pockets.
Hip belt might be too large for petites
Looks like a great pack, and it was recommended by several people. Unfortunately, the hip belt isn't snug enough for me - even adjusted to the tightest setting. The fit of the pack against my torso was fine, however, since the harness is adjustable (I'm 5'2"). Very disappointed to have to return it.
Very good.
This is the way to go. I also have a Simmer Lite....this is much better and much less hassle.
Great pack for traveling in the country and out
These bags fit conveniently in the space provided on airplanes and hold a lot of items for longer trips.
