Osprey Talon 33 Rucksack

£80.99 (10% off RRP of £90.00)

    We're very sorry, but this product is currently unavailable.

    The Talon 33 is Osprey's mountain professional. The AirScape back panel and die-cut foam hipbelt and harness keeps your load under close control but allows ventilation to run free. The shoulder harness is length adjustable, to fit you just right. The zipped pockets on each side of the hipbelt allow quick and easy access to smaller items like phone, powerbar, GPS etc. The dual buckle lid closure with integrated top compressor beneath means unrivalled top load compression and the side compressors are designed to run either under or over the stretch powermesh side pockets. On top of the lid you will find another conveniently placed pocket, ideal for gloves, hat, map etc. On the front of the pack you also have a large powermesh pocket, which is ideal for a wet jacket or extra layer of clothing. The reflective Talons keep you visible to headtorch or vehicles if moving in low light conditions.

    It's OK - but only if full. A great disappointment. I really regret my recent choice of a Talon 33 rucksack. I bought it because my 2 other Osprey packs are great, and because of this review. The detachable lid is very strange - I couldn't believe it was correctly connected and spent quite a while re-doing the straps to no avail - the problem was that with a less than full pack the lid does not stay in place - it sags down the back of the pack leaving a gap for the weather to get in between the pack and the frame. A waterproof cover doesn't stay in place either. The frame is not substantial enough to hook the lid on to. It looks very strange and several people (unprompted) commented on its odd look. I took it back to the shop for advice - but the lid was strapped on correctly. They agreed it was odd. They were unable to suggest why a detachable lid was needed - a fixed one would solve my problem. The advice from Osprey was to use a smaller pack when I don't need to fill the pack up. But on holiday I like to take a pack that will take anything from enough for an evening stroll, or a hostel overnight. Tightening the compression straps did not help much as they are at the bottom of the pack, not at the top and bottom as in the Kestrel pack. I like to carry my first aid and other necessary bits and pieces e.g. compass torch sunglasses in the lid which makes it even more saggy. It's a big lid pocket - Osprey suggest carrying gloves in it - they must be enormous gloves....... So I'm very disappointed, but have to live with my choice. I'm going to try to work out a way with needle and thread of attaching it better. At least I'll know not to rely on reviews and a company's other good products to inform my choice in future.
