Osprey Aether 55l Reppu

(6'1, 225, M) Have a 20" torso and picked up a large which should fit. Even with all the adjustments you can make to this pack it carries horribly. I had purchased to carry more weight than my ultralight pack, but this pack with 20 pounds feels heavier than my ultralight pack with 30 pounds. Horrible shoulder straps and all around design. Can't get any weight to load onto my hips at all, which is what this pack is supposedly good at. Maybe for very specific body types? Compartment is restrictive and belt pockets basically useless because they don't adjust with the belt making them difficult to access. So many better options these days. I don't really see a case to be made for this pack. Especially at this price point. Heavy pack that was made overly complex with sub par results.

The team at REI spent lots of time with me discussing my needs for my next adventure. They took my measurements and found me exactly what I was looking for. My Osprey 55 is amazing and cannot wait to hit the Camino Se Santiago with my new backpack.

Great comfortable fit for a tall 14 year old to hike with!

Pack comfortable with minimal weight while hiking with trekking poles.

Perfect pack for a weekend getaway. Had to use my girlfriends osprey 32L to hold our food and extra clothes but this pack was used for all camping and cooking necessities! Had a sleeping pad and bag inside, with a lot of cooking utensils, a couple spare of clothes, my tent attached outside and a few hand tools.
