Great Travel Pack
I bought the Farpoint 70 for a hiking trip in the Polish Tatra Mountains in July and was very impressed. Although I didn't use the main pack whilst walking, (I used my Stratos 36, which I packed in the Farpoint main pack), it was ideal for packing all my walking kit needed for a week. The harness cover is brilliant for when I checked it in as hold luggage. It was great to be able to carry it on my back rather than drag a suitcase around and clipping the daypack onto the front was so convenient. The Daypack is ideal for, well, a day pack, and I also used it as my carry-on pack for my flights. It held my 16" MacBook Pro easily and securely as well as plenty of personal items for the flights. I bought an Osprey XS rain cover for the day pack and my Stratos 36 rain cover fitted the main pack too. I was surprised at how much kit I could pack - which included walking poles, walking boots and my Stratos 36. The compression straps on the inside really do work wonders. Likewise, the external straps are great for attaching the daypack but it was also handy to front mount it too. Being able to lock the main pack and daypack (using Osprey locks) is a bonus and reassuring to keep your items secure. I think I have found my new luggage for my travels and have no plans to use a suitcase anytime soon! Great buy, no regrets and can 100% recommend the Farpoint/Fairview range.

Best all round travel bag
I’ve had my farpoint 70 since 2018 and it’s done a lot of miles with me. In fact I’ve used the daypack so much that it’s been completely sun bleached to a much lighter colour than the main bag. The size is great for long weekend trips and I’ve backpacked and camped for many weeks with it as well. I love this bag so much I bought one for my partner as a birthday gift because he was jealous of mine. The new version is a little different but we like all the changes that osprey have made. My sister has the women’s Fairview version too and it’s just as good. In my opinion it’s one of the best value packs in the range, especially if you’re a grad or a student and can get a discount. Would recommend to everyone, keep up the good work Osprey!

Far point 70 review
I previously had a farpoint 40. I loved the shoulder strap, a shame it’s missing from the F70. It also enabled me to add an additional lock to the zips that I could lock to the plastic shoulder strap. F40 also had additional external zip up sections, I think it had 2, there is only one on the F70

Great traveler
It fits in the overhead compartment of all the flights I've been on so far! Solid interior packing space, and the detachable bag fits comfortably under the seat in front of you on the plane. Fits my laptop, a light zip-sweater, glasses, pens a small notebook, and room for more. I love that the laptop compartment doubles as a water bladder holder for day hikes. 20oz yeti Water bottle fits snuggly and securely in mesh bottle carrier.

overall aesthetic was minimal and
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] overall aesthetic was minimal and pleasantly clean | general functionality, especially in regard to back support and convertibility was great | the integration of the day pack has the right intent but was not as secure as desired, especially when both fully packed and connected | the day pack chest strap broke day one
