Osprey  Astronova Pack

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Astronova backpack is the work backpack I didn't know I needed. It is 24L, so there is plenty of room for yoga clothes, my work notebooks, art supplies, and my laptop. Then when I get on transport, I can toss my lunch and extra stuff. As well as my handbag if it rains! The flat bottom makes it easy to pack. The big slanted zipper makes everything visible so you don't lose stuff in the bottom. The inside pocket has an organizer for a toothbrush and toothpaste, sunglasses, reading glasses, extra cords, power bank, and the like. It is lightweight and easy to carry when weighted down with multiple water bottles. The harness is comfortable and easily adjusted for a big or small load. I like the daisy chain because I can add my hand sanitizer. Fits two 32 or 40 oz waterbottles and the pockets are deep enough that you don't have to worry about them falling out. I do use carabiners to make sure they don't fall out. The material is OK in light rain and fine for the city. I would not use this for hiking, where you need to consider inclement weather The zipper pulls are a bit long and hard to secure. I prefer the zips on The North Face backpacks because they are easy to secure with a lock or S carabiner. Osprey is much lighter than The North Face, so Osprey wins for me. I also have a lovely batik pattern on my Astronova. Great bag. Good quality. Glad it will last a long time!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did not like the zipper on the main compartment. Because of it being at an angle, it’s difficult to zip up without having to work it with one hand pulling and the other hand holding the side of the pack. Maybe not a big deal for most but I like to be able to zip up my pack quickly with little resistant.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great pack. . a lot like the daylite plus. . . it is actually a bit deeper and just as good quality. . so I'm very happy with it. . a few less zippers and compartments though. . . but hardly worth complaining about. . . overall a very solid pack which I use for hiking and every day errands.

Love this bag, got it for work and for packing a change of clothes for the gym too, plenty of room and can fit my litre water bottle in the side really securely. Very comfortable to wear too. If you need a bag for work / school and need some extra space it’s perfect :)

Great size ideal for travelling with a 15. 6" laptop. Useful slots for strings pens keys etc. Would recommend getting a Tech pouch as well if you have lots of cables etc as no spot to keep them tidy.

Bought this bag for my 10 year old!!! It’s super comfortable and has a large capacity for his laptop and sports kit/ books. Would definitely recommend. Infact I’ll be purchasing 2 more. 😊 thankyou.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a wonderful day pack! I throw my laptop in the compartment lunch and everything I need for the day as a Parole Officer. Then if I need it for the weekend on a quick hike I’m all set!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how this pack wears and I only have minor complaints. It never stands up or leans up well. And its hard to zip or unzip with one hand. However. . . I still think its a keeper!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good quality, looks like it will be with me a long time! Only way it could be better is more inside pockets for better organization. So that it's easier to find small items.

I absolutely love it, stylish, great capacity, very comfortable, love the colour. It's also lightweight and very will designed. Can't wait to take it on my next adventure.
