Rated 2 out of 5 by DomDrouin from If it ain't broke... I own a previous version of this pack bought around 2010. Has been a stellar acquisition for me and I have hiked thousands of kilometers with it with no issues. I love it. Was very disapointed yesterday when I saw this new version in the store. In many ways, they made it worse, not better. Notably: 1) Osprey removed the hip pockets. Typically, people buy a light pack to move fast, and the best way to move fast is to not stop. Therefore, the hip pockets are an absolute must for me because they allow me to quickly grab a bite to eat or my lip-balm without having to stop. I would never buy a pack that does not have have them. 2) Osprey added a bizarre "flap" that covers the main pouch. after looking at it for a few minutes, I still do not understand what is its purpose. Add weight? 3) Osprey added a bunch of necessary padding on the shoulder straps. Why? 4) the side pockets on the original version had nice holes in them that allowed to quickly pull a water bottle in and out of the pocket. Now they replaced it by a different long opening. I am curious to see if it is actually possible to pull a water bottle out of the pocket now. I am not sure. Again why? Luckily my current pack shows no sign of wear and will likely last me until they fix all these issues. Osprey, you had it right the first time. Why did you change it? if it ain't broke ....

Rated 5 out of 5 by Steve from Ultracomfortable for those aiming to be ultralight The Exos 48 is the perfect pack for those working towards an ultralight set up but either wishing to maintain a high level of comfort or needing to carry a few extra pounds. Whether loaded with 10 or 30+ lbs. this pack barely feels like it's on my back. The large front and side stretch pockets can hold a tonne of gear and water bottles and the detachable lid makes it easy to bring items into my tent or around camp. Alternately, when I don't need the space, I can remove the lid all together. The 48L has loads of room for a multi-day set-up provided a minimalist approach is taken. That being said, I'm sure I could easily find a way for a few luxury items such as a lightweight chair if I really wanted to. I know there's mixed reviews on this point, but I find the lack of hipbelt pockets worth it for the comfortable hipbelt. It does a great job of hugging my hips and transferring the load. I find hipbelt pockets difficult to use at times so I picked up an Osprey Grab Bag and it's the perfect addition to this pack. All in all, this pack is an excellent choice for the weight conscious, comfort seeking backpacker and I highly recommend it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mckillio from Just about right I've been trying to get the right pack for myself for some time and I think I've finally found it. I've tried the Aether, Atmos, Stratos, last Exos, and the Levity but the new Exos is just about perfect. I started off with the Aether but it was way too much bag for me, the Atmos was better but still too much, the original Exos just didn't feel right (probably because it was unisex), the Stratos was an improvement but it had more pockets then I needed and the stuff pocket doesn't stretch. I've gotten to be pretty minimalist so I thought I would settle on the Levity but I found the hip belt very uncomfortable, the stuff pocket also didn't stretch and the frame is curved which felt really strange to me. But the Exos is just about perfect, I removed the lid which saves 5.4oz and it's incredibly comfortable and light. But not having shoulder or hip belt pockets is annoying, for snacks you either have to have cargo pockets, a fanny pack, buy shoulder strap pockets or take the pack off. The side pockets are arguably too tall, making it tough to reach back and grab things. The tightening straps are a bit of a maze but I'm blaming that on my lack of experience with it for now.

Rated 2 out of 5 by D from Why try fix what wasn't broken So I sent my old Exos in to have a bent frame replaced and they sent a new release Exos as a replacement. This isn't as good as it sounds. Here are some of the changes I've noticed at a first look Good: improved durability of the front and side pockets the side pockets are now much larger and easier to access on-the-go the frame seems to extend around the hips more, giving a closer to body feel the frame appears to be much thinner than before, this may mean its steel instead of aluminium Bad: first and foremost, no hip belt pockets or shoulder strap pockets - why? the hip belt is now so flimsy it constantly goes between your back and the lumbar support when putting the pack on - who wants to pull this out multiple times a day every time you put your pack on? I think they have replaced some of the buckles with lighter ones that are harder and more fidgetty to click open - again, not something you want to deal with multiple times a day the added durability to the side and front pocket result in less stretchy material, resulting in possibly less usable space - more of an issue for the front pocket

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jeffy from Light without compromising back support I own a couple packs by Osprey already (Atmos 65 AG & Manta 36 AG) and love the padding and back support these packs have as well as pretty much everything about these packs. But I’ve been wanting to get a little bit closer to what’s being called ultralight backpacking. The Osprey Exos line of packs are not only very light but offer better back support (in my opinion) than most of the ultralight backpacks on the market and are less expensive on top of that. I love the suspension system and the way it feels on my back. The very large side pockets are great also. The curved back panel on the interior of the pack seemed a little strange at first but I have yet to see a actual problem with it. The only real thing that I’m not sure I like is the way the brain top pocket attaches to the pack on the two points closest to your back. They are less easily adjusted than most packs I’ve seen and I’m not really sure why they did it that way. I have not actually experienced an issue with these yet, maybe this will not be a problem but it is different. Overall I think this is a great lightweight pack at a reasonable price.

Rated 1 out of 5 by HikeEatRepeat from I am confused??????????? Ok I am confused here. Why in the world would they take a perfect pack and take away the hip pockets and shoulder pockets? The weight is the same?????

Rated 5 out of 5 by Doesn't use hip belt pockets from Who needs 'em? Honestly I rarely use my hip belt pockets except to hold stuff I don't really use in the first place and/or garbage. I can appreciate that they removed them especially since I have pockets on my pants.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Upset osprey fan from No hip belt pockets Who in their right mind would develop a backpack without hip belt pockets? Seriously, what happened here?

OSPREY MEASUREMENT GUIDE
Please note that the info provided above refers to the torso size each pack will fit, and NOT any dimensions of the pack. Below are some steps for how to get your torso length. You should probably have someone help take this measurement for you so it is accurate. And they might accidentally touch your butt. HOW TO MEASURE TORSO LENGTH: • Start at the iliac crest, which is the top of the hipbones on the side of your body. These act like a shelf for supporting a pack hipbelt. • From this level on your spine, measure to the C7 vertebrae, the knobby bone at the base of your neck when you put your head down. • Make sure you keep your back as straight as possible while measuring. • This torso measurement determines what size Osprey pack you should carry. Refer to the size charts above to find your ideal size. • If you are in between sizes, it is ideal to try them both on before ordering. HOW TO MEASURE HIPBELT SIZE: • Measure around your hips at your iliac crest, NOT your waist. • A properly fitted hipbelt rides centered over the hipbones and needs to be very snug. • The padded portion should wrap well around your hips, leaving a gap of 3 to 6 inches between the tips of the both hip pads when securely tightened. • Refer to the Hipbelts size chart above to help determine your ideal Osprey pack size, but again, your torso length is what should determine your pack size, NOT the hipbelt.

ALL MIGHTY GUARANTEE - Osprey's Lifetime Warranty

When Osprey celebrated their 35th anniversary in 2009 they launched The Osprey All Mighty Guarantee. What that means to you is ANY Osprey product purchased at ANY time is covered. Any product, any reason, any era - the all encompassing Osprey lifetime warranty ensures their dedication to superior design, craftsmanship and quality of their products is backed up by their actions to replace or repair a pack so it lasts a lifetime. Or two.

Here are some details.... Osprey will repair for any reason, free of charge, any damage or defect in their products, whether it was purchased back in 1974, or ordered right now from this site. If they are unable to perform a functional repair on your pack, they will happily replace it. Osprey proudly stands behind the All Mighty Guarantee, so much so that it bears the signature of company founder and head designer, Mike Pfotenhauer.

Some Osprey All Mighty Guarantee FAQs:

What do I do if my Osprey pack needs to be repaired?
If you live in the United States and need a repair done on your Osprey pack, you will first need to obtain a Return Authorization number. You can do this by reaching their Returns Department at 866-314-3130, or using the information that is provided with a new Osprey pack.

What do I do if I just need a replacement pack part like a buckle?
Give Osprey a call at 866-314-3130 and they will take care of you.

How long will it take?
You can tell Osprey you need the pack returned by a certain date when you request a Return Authorization number, and they will do their absolute best to meet that deadline.

What if my pack is super dirty and stinks?
Clean it before you send it to Osprey to get repaired. The real reason is that there is a law that says if your gear is too dirty or odiferous (smelly), Osprey is not allowed to repair it and will just return it to you.

Do I have to pay for shipping?
A little bit. You are responsible for the cost of shipping the pack to Osprey, and they will pay shipping to return the pack via UPS or FedEx. Osprey cannot be held responsible if packages get lost in transit, so make sure you get a tracking number when you ship your pack out. Also, if you use expedited shipping be sure to let Osprey know (866-314-3130). They, in turn, will give your pack priority processing and return it using a similar expedited shipping method.

Do I have to register my pack to take advantage of this incredible guarantee, and/or need to be the original owner of my Osprey pack?
No! Osprey's All Mighty Guarantee is truly ALL MIGHTY. If you own an Osprey pack that needs to be repaired they will repair or replace it.

JUST A HEADS UP: If your Osprey product is not repairable and is replaced, the original product will not be returned to you. They will try really really hard to repair your pack, but if they are unable to make a functional repair, they will replace it. For products that are no longer in production you will be contacted by Osprey to discuss replacement options.

All good answers. So what is NOT covered?
• Osprey program packs or any Osprey pack used by outdoor programs are ONLY covered under Osprey's Program Pack Warranty, NOT AMG.
• Size and/or fit issues. Make sure you buy a pack that fits. Check out the size guide on Osprey product pages for more info.
• Personal preferences like colors you don't like, style of the pack, or not enough/too much room in your pack. Check the product description, features, specifications, and size guide to make sure you are ordering the right pack for you.
• Third party Repairs or replacements. Send your Osprey pack to Osprey and Osprey only to get fixed. Easy as that. And don't try fixing things yourself.
• Cosmetic wear and tear including any reasonable aging of your pack that affects only the appearance and not the function of your pack. Be proud of those scars!
• B.A.M.G. (Before All Mighty Guarantee) Repair Work. The All Mighty Guarantee applies only to repairs requested on or after January 1, 2009.
• A Osprey Hydraulics reservoir is covered by a limited 1-year warranty, which is the reasonable lifespan of a reservoir. Pouring and storing of warm/hot or boiling water in your reservoir WILL VOID your warranty, so don't do that. Reservoirs are NOT designed to contain or handle liquids at temperature.
