Wherever your adventures take you, Osprey's Transporter duffels will get your gear there and back safely. They're constructed in a special high-tenacity coated nylon fabric called NanoTough, which – as the name might suggest – offers the best weight-to-durability combo in the business, along with solid water-resistance. What's more, you'll struggle to find a gear-hauler with a more comfortable carry system. Osprey's Transporter duffels all feature full-yoke stowaway harnesses with contoured and padded backpack straps, plus webbing grab handles and the all-important sternum strap. The main compartment has lockable U-zip access with an overlapping rain flap to stop the moisture seeping in through the zip. Inside you've got a useful mesh pocket, and there's also a smaller zip pocket on the end for your quick-access essentials. Should you need to secure the Transporter to a roof-rack/canoe/pack pony etc., there are eight webbing lash points. Available in various different sizes, this largest 150-litre one is an absolute WHOPPER for gear-heavy expeditions.
The Osprey story started in California in the 1970s, with one man, a sewing machine and a vision to make the world’s best outdoor packs. Today, it’s one of the most recognisable rucksack brands.
All of Osprey's packs share the same twin hallmarks of fit and comfort. In fact, Osprey was an early adopter of breathable mesh, ergonomic hip-belts and packs designed specifically to fit women. Breathable back panels are still a feature of all their packs, and all except their most lightweight bags come with adjustable back-lengths for a perfect fit.
And in a world where outdoor enthusiasts are increasingly conscious of our environmental impact, many Osprey packs are made from durable recycled fabrics, while all feature PFC-free water-repellent coatings.
