Very happy with this travel
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very happy with this travel pack. The little pack is very functional and I used it for a day trip. 2 bottle holders enabled to carry additional bottle for my kid. Lockable zipper was another plus. The size of main pack is perfect as I did not need to check bag.

Farpoint 55L
Absolutely brilliant backpack! Plenty of space for a week's worth of clothes and footwear, and the daypack is the perfect thing to round it all off. Recommended!

I prefer the original Farpoint 55
I had purchased the original Farpoint (where the day pack could be attached to the main pack via a zipper). This original version had its problems (i. e. did not match carry on standards, etc) and eventually I had to replace the pack for the newer Farpoint because the day pack wouldn't attach to the main pack anymore (problem with the lining of the zipper). I am pleased and can confirm that Osprey delivered on their promise of a lifetime warranty. I received the new Farpoint 55 and noticed a few changes. The good thing is that it now follows airline carry on size requirements. What I don't like is that there is nothing actually attaches the day pack to the main pack - there are just 2 fastener buckles on the main pack that you put through the day pack to keep them together. The issue here is that if you have some heavier things in your daypack (i. e. laptop, etc), the day pack will slide down and dangle below the main pack. It doesn't feel comfortable nor does it feel really safe to have your items in the day pack (i. e. passport. laptop etc) not really attached to the main pack. Understand that many prefer to carry the day pack in front, but sometimes I travel with a toddler who is already strapped to my front.

Looks sturdy but not a good choice for me
Looks like a sturdy couple of backpacks. Not keen on the hard frame - felt uncomfortable in trying. Also, the smaller day pack doesn't really attach to the bigger pack, it just hangs from the straps, so not convinced of how well that would last out how comfortable it would be, as loaded up it would drag down from the main pack. Returned, at my own pretty expensive cost. Disappointed.

Grey gap year
Bought to replace a different cheap rucksack for part 1 of our “Grey gap year”. POSITIVES: Not used in anger yet but loaded is comfortable, spacious and well designed. Compression straps assist in squeezing 6 months of clothing and kit in it! NEGATIVES: Unsure on the strap/clip design to hold the smaller rucksack to the front, don’t know if it’ll last for the whole year- we’ll see!

Excellent “one bag” (or technically
Excellent “one bag” (or technically two) for North/South America & Europe. It may be a bit cumbersome for SE Asia, but great for everywhere else and you could probably squeak by there as well. Removable daypack fits under seats perfectly. Great all around bag set up if you want to avoid checking bags. Great suspension on the main bag as well. Nearly as good as my EXOS & Talon backpacking bags and plenty good for train/plane/bus travels. Durable quality and strong zippers. I use it with packing cubes to keep everything organized, which works great. One of the low key best parts is separating the packs before boarding and stowing all the backpack straps. It makes boarding without hitting people with straps a breeze! The internal pockets can replace a tech pouch of needed and the the other internal pouch is great for a catch all or separated dirty clothes. 10/10 would buy it again for sure.
