The shoulder straps are super comfortable, even after a long day of wear. ... Plus, the interior pocket is great – it seamlessly holds my iPad and would easily fit a mid- sized

[ Looks like the photos! I 'd love this in multiple colors. I workout multiple times a week. I like a bag that can fit nearly everything I need for the day. It's easy to clean and has quality zippers. I filled the bag to the max& they did n't get off track. The straps are sturdy and comfortable. I appreciate that they do n't dig into my shoulders. There's a side pocket for my water bottle and a loop I can use to hook my keys. There's also an inside pocket for smaller items( ie: airpods, keys, lip balm.) I would recommend.

[ As someone who's always on the move, finding a backpack that adapts to my unpredictable days is essential. The Nike Aura Backpack has been a game- changer. It ’s a 24- literally bag which I feel is an ample size for work essentials, gym gear, and personal items. Its main pocket is very spacious, it has a mesh liner inside to keep things in place while still having plenty of room for other items, there ’s also a bonus zipper inside where you can keep a wallet and have it secured. The side pocket is perfect for a water bottle, and you don ’ t have to worry about it being too large because the pocket has a an elastic band that gives more leeway for bigger bottles and doesn ’ t puff up when you remove the bottle keeping it sleek. The front pocket is also spacious, ideal for smaller items like deodorant, keys, snacks etc. The material is smooth and the backpack feels lightweight. I don ’ t have any gripes with the backpack, if anything I would have added a rubber or sturdier sole for the bottom to avoid wear and tear from being placed on various surfaces. Overall, I highly recommend the backpack for any instance. And don ’ t worry, even if you have the bag on for extended periods, the straps are smooth and don ’ t cause any discomfort. If you ’ re looking for a backpack, look no further

5 Grace
[ This backpack is sleek and versatile, and a good fit both for work/travel, as well as packing things for school or the gym. It comfortably fits a laptop, a book and lunchbox, or a pair of shoes and a change of clothes. The size is great for day use without being too bulky. The black color gives it a timeless look, while the smartly designed compartments keep everything organized, from my laptop to smaller essentials, and it includes a pocket for your water bottle on the side. The finish& material make it go well with a more sporty look, as well as adding a fun touch when pairing it with a school outfit. Definitely would recommend!

5 Mal
[ The Nike Aura backpack is awesome. One of the most important factors for choosing a backpack is its ability to fit my fashion style. With its sleek design and adjustable straps this backpack blends style in functionality perfectly.

5 BreathableNikeFlowShorts
[ Durable and earth friendly backpack made with recycled fibers looks amazing. I love the way the backpack is stylish and comfortable at the same time. Used to easily pack and hold my workout gear and extra pair of sneakers and water bottle. Material is durable and does n't look like it is made with recycled fibers. Experienced a few drops of rain and noticed most of the drops bead and not soak the material. Others complimented how great the backpack looked with the small silver swoosh. Would recommend this product to both young and old athletes and non- athletes. Wear it every other day when traveling to and from the gym with noticeable durability.

Very sturdy and solid backpack. Has several pockets and seems like it will hold up for a middle school and high school wear and tear. The only downside is that it seems medium Size compared to other competitors. Overall this will get a solid option for a school bag.

5 Hayley
I got this bag in black. The DSG Ultimate backpack 4. 0 is a very useful and functional bag, and it is light without any items in it. There are big and small pockets inside and outside of the backpack. I can easily fit in my 13 ” MacBook Pro in the laptop slot. It won ’ t be a problem to fit in a 15 ” MacBook too. Both sides of the backpack have the water bottle slot as compared to others that usually have one. There is a small compartment on the outside upper backpack that is lined and padded, can be used to put mobile phone. The straps of the backpack are padded for comfortability on the shoulders. Overall this is a very good backpack for the value.

5 JCKM
Sturdy, good quality, holds a lot. Highlights include: thick sturdy strap at the top, cushioned back, solid water bottle holders on each side( vs. mesh that tend to rip easily), rubber bottom so that it won ’ t slide when set down, cushioned laptop holder and multiple zipped pockets for all various sizes of items.

5 PattyAN

The front pocket only goes halfway down the bag, which took some getting used to. You ca n't put too much weight in it or the bag is very top- heavy. But I just made sure I put only light items in there and everything else in the main compartment. The side pockets are really useful for holding a water bottle and sunglasses case!

I ’ ve taken my Gregory Women ’s Jade 24 LT Backpack on two training hikes so far as I prepare for my upcoming trip to Havasu Falls, and it ’s been exactly what I needed. The organization is one of the biggest highlights. The front pocket is perfect for storing food and snacks so I don ’ t have to dig through the main compartment during breaks. Inside the main compartment, I can comfortably fit clothes, toiletries, and a water bladder without everything feeling cramped. I also love the hip belt pockets — they ’ re ideal for quick- access essentials like lip balm, sunscreen, etc… while hiking. The only con is that my phone doesn ’ t fit. I chose the bright yellow color, and I ’ m glad I did because it ’s highly visible and easy to spot. Overall, this pack feels practical, well- designed, and great for day hikes and trip preparation. I ’ m excited to keep using it on my Havasu Falls adventure.

[ Bought this a few weeks ago for a backpacking trip to Olympic National Park and it ’s been great so far! I ’ m a 5 ’ 9 ” woman with athletic/curvy build. Thoughtful compartments, detachable smaller pack, built in rain cover, and seems pretty lightweight to me. I love the green color of the pack and the neon green color of the rain cover. My other pack is a 45 Osprey from 4 years ago and this frame seems more supportive/better padded.

[ Have only taken this pack on one trek so far but it was great. Very comfortable and distributes weight nicely. I love how convient it is to access the inside of the pack with the front pouch. Only complaint is the water bottle pocket- it ’s very difficult to get a 1. 5 liter Nalgene in and out when the pack is full.

5 Edcel
Absolutely love the day bag for backcountry camping!

5 Erin
I did n't understand the significance of a female- specific pack until I got this one-- I had been using a 75L+ unisex/ male pack for 10+ years and it always felt just a little off. The first time putting this one on, fully loaded, for a 5 day backpacking trip, I realized what a game- changer it was. Originally I was concerned going down in size by 5L, but all the pockets and stash points make up for it. It packs much better than my previous pack and the weight is distributed better and sits on my hips more comfortably. Definitely recommend!

5 Jem J.
Just got this pack as a replacement for my very old and trusted Arial 75. Despite being a guy I got the women's as my last one was a women's and it fit me so well. I am 5' 7 '' '' and 155#. Super comfortable and easy to adjust. I have just used it so far for day backcountry skiing. It easily synched down to a small size and was narrow with no wobble for skiing in the trees. Lots of pockets, I especially like the double pockets in the lid for sorting small stuff.

I love this pack! I finally upgraded after years of indecision and I could n't be happier with the Jade 63. I used Gregory's size calculator to pick my size and took her out on her maiden voyage. The pack felt comfortable around my hips and shoulders and distributed the weight perfectly for a highly supportive feel. If you are in the market for a pack that fits well, moves with you, and holds everything you need for a big adventure, I recommend the Jade 63!

I was gifted this bag over the summer and it ’s been a total lifesaver on the trails! At 4 ’ 11 ” and 110 lbs, it fits me really comfortably.

I ’ ll definitely be paying it forward and gifting one to a friend!

[ This pack meets almost all my expectations and hopes! I love the suspension system the most. My pack feels like a hug! I appreciate the choice of removing the “ brain ” to save weight.

[ I actually rented this backpack and it was great. Have n't tried other backpacks but for my first backpacking trip ever it did great and fit a ton of things. Decently lightweight and sturdy.

5 Kris
[ I LOVE this back. I backpacked through deep mud and heavy rain. The included rain cover was great for hiking and laying the bag down in the muddy vestibule. It feels like you are carrying half the weight when it is on and it can be adjusted to whatever your carrying preference is. I had and easily accessible spot for everything. I compared it to many other bags before settling on it. No other bag could beat the comfort, which is really important for a person with back pain.

5 JWWK
[ Perfect for a weekend trip for those that pack light and/or have modern gear. My only frustration is how small the lower zip compartment for the sleeping bag goes( down and compression stuff sack).

5 Toni G
[ I bought this bag the day before I left to hike the W circuit in Patagonia and I am so thankful I did. This pack was the perfect size for the 4 days/ 4 nights worth of hiking( 50+ miles in total). I have issues with my back and sciatica and never once felt any discomfort while carrying ~50lbs of gear in this pack. This is my 4th Osprey backpack purchase( have 3 other sizes) and this is the first one to have a rain cover built in! THANK YOU! The quality of the bags are the best and last for years!

5 Abby
Bought this backpack for my Havasupai Az trip. Worked great. Very comfortable. Easy to keep weight balanced. Packed everything I needed for the week. 33 pounds, easy to get on and off. Lots of extra loops.( I like comfort).

[ I have n't had the chance to use this bag yet; waiting for the weather to warm up. The bag itself is great, big enough to house all my stuff but still compact so it does n't feel too bulky. I love that there's a side zipper to pull out my sleeping bag without everything else following with it. Great brand and great material.

5 Swill77

[ Bought this a few weeks ago for a backpacking trip to Olympic National Park and it ’s been great so far! I ’ m a 5 ’ 9 ” woman with athletic/curvy build. Thoughtful compartments, detachable smaller pack, built in rain cover, and seems pretty lightweight to me. I love the green color of the pack and the neon green color of the rain cover.

5 Sophia G.
[ Have only taken this pack on one trek so far but it was great. Very comfortable and distributes weight nicely. I love how convient it is to access the inside of the pack with the front pouch. Only complaint is the water bottle pocket- it ’s very difficult to get a 1. 5 liter Nalgene in and out when the pack is full.

5 Edcel
Absolutely love the day bag for backcountry camping!

5 Erin
I did n't understand the significance of a female- specific pack until I got this one-- I had been using a 75L+ unisex/ male pack for 10+ years and it always felt just a little off. The first time putting this one on, fully loaded, for a 5 day backpacking trip, I realized what a game- changer it was. Originally I was concerned going down in size by 5L, but all the pockets and stash points make up for it. It packs much better than my previous pack and the weight is distributed better and sits on my hips more comfortably. Definitely recommend!

5 Jem J.
Just got this pack as a replacement for my very old and trusted Arial 75. Despite being a guy I got the women's as my last one was a women's and it fit me so well. I am 5' 7 '' '' and 155#. Super comfortable and easy to adjust. I have just used it so far for day backcountry skiing. It easily synched down to a small size and was narrow with no wobble for skiing in the trees. Lots of pockets, I especially like the double pockets in the lid for sorting small stuff.

5 BebeBeth
[ The Ariel Plus 85 backpack was a game changer for me. I 'm not a `` professional '' backpacker, so packing everything but the `` kitchen sink '' was a desire. Although I wound up not packing that too, I did manage to get everything I needed, and more, into this pack for a 3 night solo trip. An ultralight tent and a 4. 7 '' high sleeping pad were carried on the outside of the pack, while my mummy- style sleeping bag was in the sleeping bag compartment at the bottom of the bag. Other necessary items took up the rest of the space, with room to spare. Not only was there plenty of room in this bag, but it was incredibly comfortable. I 'm humpbacked, so not many backpacks are comfortable for me. With the adjustable torso feature, I was able to get a truly dialed- in fit and was able to hike without discomfort.

5 mariam7726
[ I bought this about a month ago and have done two backpacking trips, it is one of the best backpacks I 've owned so far. Osprey really has outdone themselves, especially with the front opening compartment. Easy access for everything and fits so many things in it as well. Easy to clean and the straps do n't hurt as bad as other brands.

5 Aura
Osprey really outdid themselves with this one, thinking of every little detail for organization and packing this pack. Additionally, the suspension is great and carrying over 40% of my body weight, I felt the weight, but not the pack! I like my comfort and I do not like to be cold and I carry food for my dogs, while they carry the water, therefore, I need all of this space. The only detail that osprey does on all of their packs is that sleeping bag divider is not fully removable, just `` '' disconnect- able '' '' so you still have to carry the divider around with you adding weight and it does get in my way. I have never used it since it prevents me from stuffing every solitary nook and cranny of the bag. Also, when the bag is stuffed, I have never been able to successfully open and then re- close the bottom zipper anyway. Same with the side zippers Osprey has on most of its packs. HOWEVER, they surely did get it right with the front zippers on this pack! You can open the entire front and then re- close it even when fully stuffed! Wonderful!!! Also, the side pockets, unlike other Osprey models, really can be used and things added and taken out even when the pack is fully stuffed. I love the front organization pockets and keep things that I need handy like GPS and maps, etc in one and repellent and netting, or if it is a cold, snowy backpack, gloves and hat, in the other.

5 Mflight51
Finally a large woman's specific pack! Thank you Osprey! I have been using men's or unisex packs my whole life until last year. What a difference specificity makes! This pack is so incredibly comfortable you do n't really know you have it on. I am certain I will be able to travel more distance without fatigue with this pack. Six pounds for the M/L may seem like a heavier pack, but the infrastructure and material is worth it. This pack will be my only pack for multi day trips! Thank you.

5 Ellie
I adore this pack. My mom bought the Ariel 85L for me a few years ago( 2021) for my first guiding job, and it has been my companion ever since. The pockets make it easy for me to stay organized and access a variety of gear while on the trail, and the brain turns into a little day pack. The only negative on the day pack feature is that the straps secure with plastic toggles through loops rather than buckles, so they come out when you are n't wearing the pack. This pack is super durable. I have sat on it, accidently thrown it in a beaver pond, checked it at the airport, and much more, and it has n't ripped or shown much wear yet( knock on wood of course). The water bottle pockets have a holster feature, so you can access your bottles without help and fit notebooks, maps, or fuel bottles in the top part of the pocket. I am a notorious over packer, and I can always fit everything I need and still hike comfortably with this pack. If you like ultra light this might not be your pack, but if you want to hike for a long time while staying organized and comfortable this is a great pack.

Alsp, lots of pockets for organization and places to attach items to the outside of the pack.
