Osprey Herren Farpoint Trek 55 Rucksack

Product Information

The outside of the Farpoint Trek 75 is covered in various attachment points for extra gear. From the daisy chain style loops to the mount points for the rain cover, Osprey have covered all their bases here. The frame in the Trek 75 is much like that of the original Farpoint. It is very unobtrusive yet still works incredibly well and makes carrying heavy loads a doddle. Since I am a dude I can’t speak from personal experience here, but many women travelers I’ve met have told me they love this edition. Ok, how perfect is the product placement in this pic in Cappadocia? It totally wasn’t sponsored by Osprey (But I’m totally open to the opportunity…) The Farpoint 55 Trek is ideal if you’re looking for a bag that you can use for travel and potentially for trekking as well.

It used to be that the Farpoint 55 wasn’t carry-on compliant and it had some other points against it that made it a less attractive option, but now they are much more of a match.

Although the Farpoint/Fairview series isn’t necessarily designed for hiking, they are comfortable enough to take on hikes during your travels. Where to buy Osprey Farpoint 55 At this point, I consider our Osprey bags as part of my family because they were wedding gifts and have been a dependable companion to us through it all. Initially, I was very sceptical about this combination but by testing this product I have had my mind well and truly changed. But if you are going on a longer and more adventurous trip, I think the Farpoint Trek 55 will work really well. I’ve had the chance to use it both as a general travel bag and while trekking (the longest was a 5-day trek).

What are the differences? Well, the Fairview 40 has slightly smaller dimensions, but has been made more comfortable as it is designed for the female body. Also, the shoulder straps curve along the body, creating a better fit-for-women design. Osprey Farpoint Trek FAQs Osprey Farpoint VS Osprey Farpoint Trek – Which Should I Choose? The Farpoint and the Farpoint Trek, which one is for you? Integrated compression system. While the regular Farpoint which has no internal organization features, the Trek does have several. As a flight cover, the AirCover feels a little baggy. Unless your bag is crammed to capacity, the AirCover will sag and not look great but the protection it offers is certainly worth the downgrade in appearance. As a rain shield, I was pleasantly surprised by how well it fit.It is available in just two sizes, both of which are too big to be considered a carry-on. And that is one reason why I’m not so impressed with the travel aspect of this bag. By the way, the Trek version of the Farpoint does not have an S/M or M/L version, since it can be adjusted to any height.

The latest edition has an adjustable harness. This means you can move the harness up or down by up to about 3 inches or 8cm. Plus, the extra clips on the front and bottom meant I could strap a sleeping bag and a tent to the outside which was great when my bag was full.Unlike the classic Farpoint series, the Frpaoint Trek is only available in two sizes, neither of which is small enough to be considered a carry-on when you’re flying. The other common question I get is if the 40L carry-on size is big enough for certain trips. I think traveling minimally is great, but there are some trips where you might need a bit of extra space. If you are on the fence about how much space you need, then the Farpoint Trek 55 is a really nice step up from carry-on. If you are spending a summer city hopping around Europe or Southeast Asia the standard Farpoint will suit you perfectly. On the other hand, if you are heading to South America and planning a few hiking trips, the Farpoint Trek will be much better suited to the task! The Farpoint series is technically unisex, but there is now also the Osprey Fairview 40. This is a women’s specific edition with some tweaks for extra comfort.
