OspreyKitsuma 3 w/Res Teal Reef O/S

Was not sure I ‘needed’ another rucksack. But this was the Best Buy. Perfect for carrying my hydration pack on long walks. Comfy and doesn’t rub. No sweaty backs either. A must have for hikers who only need to carry water.

Me ha gustado más que cualquier Camelback. Se ajusta muy bien a la espalda. El sistema de imán es práctico aunque a veces yendo en bici se descuelga.

Since we can't do a lot of our usual summer activities due to covid, my family has been doing a lot more hiking, walking, and riding bikes. I was tired of carrying a water bottle with me, so I got this. It is awesome- fits me well (I'm 5'7" and on the slim side), is comfortable, and I love how the drinking nozzle has a magnet so you can stick it right to the strap at your chest. Plenty of capacity for myself and my two kids for an long bike ride or walk. It's pretty easy to fill up, too, although you do have to unlatch a few buckles to get the bladder out. I also love all the pockets: two open pockets that fit my cell phone, poo bags for the dog, a couple snacks, etc. And also a zippered pocket that can fit my keys, a wallet, a little hand sanitizer bottle, chapstick, etc. Perfect pack for urban adventures.

Love this pack!!! Literally nothing to complain about. It’s a great fit for women. Without the weight of water in it, the fit seems a little off, but with weight, it hangs perfectly and I never felt like I was wearing a pack while riding. It’s so comfortable and breathable. The straps are light and comfortable. It’s a great shape and hugs the back well; even riding on narrow single track I never felt like it was going to get snagged. I appreciate the magnetic attachment for the bite valve across the chest, which keeps the tube from hanging and being clunky; and it’s easier access for drinking. The side mesh pockets are convenient and fairly easy to access without taking the pack off. The top zipper pocket is big enough to fit an iPhone 10 and additional items. I like the key hook inside the pocket actually to secure my rings while I ride. I love the smart design of the water bladder with the fold over wide mouth. So easy to fill (and add ice for hot days) and to clean. No leakage! I was debating which size to get and since I’m not the one carrying tools when I ride, this was a perfect size. I like the extra pockets for food. I’m seriously considering getting the smallest size for my 13 yo daughter. I bought this pack for mountain biking but I will definitely use this for short day hikes too.

I’m not sure how this pack does it, but the weight is distributed in such a way that it doesn’t put a ton of weight on my shoulders. I’m a 5’2 fairly small framed woman. There’s a good amount of pockets and space for snacks. I took this on a hike twice so far and it was plenty of water. Two reasons why this was a win is because 1) I am a wateraholic, and 2) I live in AZ desert territory where you can easily end up needing more water than you think.
