For fans of a 2 in 1 deal, get a suitcase and a daypack in one with the Osprey Women’s Waypoint 85 Travel Pack. This versatile travel pack carries with the comfort of a backcountry pack, but was designed with the rigors of travel in mind. Interior clothing straps keep your clothes organized and wrinkle free, while the magazine pocket keeps your reading material and smaller items close at hand. The bag has a handle to act as a suitcase, or a detachable day pack for day hikes and smaller trips. IsoForm harnesses promote a custom comfortable fit like a backcountry pack that allows for seamless transition from airport to trail head. Constructed with the dimensions of a woman's torso in mind. I had a dream the other night about working at Moosejaw Mousineering. It's like my subconscious had a typo and just went with it. They specialized in mountaineering for mice. That seems like a quality untapped market opportunity to me.

I bought this bag specifically for a 2 week Italy vacation. I wanted a pack I could carry on my shoulders because we were visiting Cinque Terre, which has more stairs than you can imagine and is a total nightmare for a rolling suitcase. My pack was perfect for the trip! I fit 2 weeks worth of clothes into it, albeit I did have to do laundry 3x during the trip. The bag is super sturdy and handled trains and planes with ease. I love all the pockets and straps. I couldn't have designed a better bag if I tried. I highly recommend buying the Osprey Airporter LZ Pack Cover for air travel.

I shopped around & compared a variety of travel packs,but ultimately decided to spend the extra money & buy the Osprey Waypoint womans 85. I traveled extensively through Europe this fall for leisure/school& this pack worked great. The detachable day pack has the right capacity for the essentials plus padded protection for a netbook/. The main pack was comfortable, even fully loaded. I pushed the capacity to the max (truly testing the zippers) and it worked perfectly. The cover for the shoulder straps was helpful during flights & train rides to keep everything secure and tangle free. I recommend this pack to anyone looking for a solid travel pack w/ the convenience of a detachable day pack.
