Osprey are renowned for their high-quality backpacks and the Talon 44 is a perfect example. Osprey describe the Talon as being "designed with ultralight multi-day adventures and travellers in mind" and it is a superbly adaptable backpack.

 

 

The Talon range all feature AirScape™ back panels - in this model this is a ridge-moulded foam back panel with integrated air channels and a continuous-wrap harness and hip-belt, allowing the pack to move with you when traversing challenging terrain. This streamlined pack features a top-loading main compartment, hydration reservoir sleeve, dual zippered hip pockets, and attachment points for ice axes and trekking poles. Constructed with high-quality bluesign® approved recycled high-tenacity nylon with a PFC-free DWR coating. The pack comes with a - rather worn - but entirely readable ‘Talon series owner’s manual’.

 

 

The pack has been used in the past although not often and there are some minor wear marks which I hope are visible in the photographs. The functionality of the pack is totally unaffected including all straps, clips and features. I am including a new condition ‘EXPED Fold Dry-Bag’ in XXL size (rrp £21.99) because it is a perfect fit for this pack and adds an extra layer of protection for the contents.

 

 

This is a great backpack and I am only selling it because it is sadly not being used currently, which is a real waste.
