Osprey  Axis Pack

The size is great. It's comparable to a Jan sport a little bigger in volume and length. I can fit my 17 inch laptop with no hassle. I'm 6'0 upper build, putting on and taking off is easy. The material quality is great the side of the bag that is against your back has padding. The feel is great. Can be used for school, light backpacking for a day.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fit for me. I have been looking for an everyday pack (going to work and travel) that is a good fit for me for quite a while. I wanted a waxed canvas pack but I had trouble finding something that worked best for me. I had to return a few before I stumbled upon this one (AER, GORUCK). This pack fits my everyday needs. it has a good number of pockets, it is able to hold a lot of weight and although the size is a little bit too large for me, it does offer the ability for more if needed. The material is high quality, heavier than my other Osprey day packs, the zippers are sturdy and reliable. The fit is good but I wish that the straps were curved for comfort and better fit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a Sportlite 15 for short day excursions, and it's perfectly sized for that. I wanted a bigger pack for travel, but since I got the Axis 24 a couple of weeks ago, I've used it daily for work. The storage is well conceived for organization and effective use of the capacity. I can carry daily essentials, including my laptop, cords, files, notebooks, water bottle, umbrella and sunscreen, and still have room for extras, such as a change of clothes. I like that I can use the side straps to secure my water bottle if my pack won't be travelling upright and that I can secure the zippers if I feel the need to make them harder to unzip. I wish it had a (removable) chest strap, but otherwise, it's ideal for my daily use, and it will be great for travel.

I really like the Axis 24L, and it almost fits my needs perfectly! Plenty of storage, sleek, nice color, sturdy design. I had planned to use this for my daily commute. But I think I need to return it, sadly--it feels a little too long for my torso. I'm 5'2" and even when I adjust the straps to carry it very high on my back, the bottom of the bag still hits my tailbone. Just wanted to share that perspective for any other smaller-framed women who may be looking at this bag!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Functional, sturdy, and exactly what I need to pack around my things. I love the size and structure of the water bottle pockets. They fit things of various sizes securely and easy to access. I was a little disappointed with the lack of chest strap, but the accessory loops are at the right spot for my torso size to throw a strap on there when I want one (which isn't always by the way). The perfect bag for me. So glad I bought it.

Love this bag. Have previously put osprey bags and was delighted to find out they make reasonably priced school bags. Bought for college and even two years later looks as good as new. The material is very resilient and pretty decent when caught in the rain. Love the big pockets to fit a Nalgene. I use the top lined pocket as a pencil pouch and the other compartments hold anything else I could need. Laptop sleeve fits my large computer easily and protects it well, as I often forget it’s in there. My only complaint is that when using it for weekend trips, I need to make sure to pack out the bottom in order to use all the available space because it is a bit top heavy with the pockets. That said it’s large enough to fit school work and clothes for a weekend trip. Great blue color and blends in with the usual Patagonia and north face backpacks while still being unique.

I bought this bag looking for a good sized but inexpensive school/travel bag. I knew that Osprey made good stuff so I went with the the Axis! I am 5'10"" 140 and this pack fits very comfortably and closely even when loaded down, love all the organization and materials. Water bottle sleeves accommodate my yeti bottle well, and the large internal sleeve is great for my level iiia soft ballistic plate!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far I love this pack. I use it as a work pack. It fits my laptop easily and has as slip for a tablet as well. I like the inside zipper/organizer for smaller items. I bring two 40 oz waters to work each day so having those elastic water bottle holders is perfect! The only Con that I can think of is the straps "resizer" slides out easily so I often have to tighten them back up.

Bought these for my two middle schoolers to for better back support for their daily school routine. Great bags with a sleek design that can be carried tight to their backs. I appreciate the tailored design and efficient storage. Side water bottle, interior storage, cinch straps, mesh backing for hot days, etc. Great bag for school and day travel! Highly recommend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great backpack for school use. We love the Osprey quality and the All Mighty Guarantee, but the design of this particular pack is perfect for a college student. I have a smaller Arcane pack as my everyday carry pack for work, but my daughter needs more space to take her laptop and books in college and this was the perfect size for that.
