I Recently Went On Week

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently went on week long trip to Guatemala and let me tell you this is the new it-girl bag. I met so many other people who had it and raved about the ability to combine and separate the bags. The only gripe I have is that the day pack only has a chest clip (no hip clip) which gets old quickly on a hike. I might just switch it out with my usual day pack for future trips.

We Haven’t Had A Chance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We haven’t had a chance to take the Osprey Fairview 55 Travel Pack on an actual trip yet, but first impressions are outstanding. The look and feel are exactly what you’d expect from Osprey, excellent quality, durable materials, and thoughtful design throughout. My wife did a full mock pack test and was able to fit everything she’d need for a one week trip without any issues. Plenty of room for clothes and essentials, and it still felt organized and manageable. The zippers, straps, and overall construction feel solid and built to last. If it performs on the road as well as it looks and feels at home, we’re going to be very happy with this purchase. So far, very impressed!

It’s Awesome! Perfect For Traveling

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s awesome! Perfect for traveling around with flights and trains and buses too.

Day Pack Is My New Favourite!

I use a day pack daily for my commute or just go places. It is my go to bag now, the size is perfect, big enough for all my needs. Fits my lunch box and love the laptop compartment. Recently I travelled from UK to Portugal and used the travel pack on the way back. It went on hold with a couple bottles of wine and other goodies in addition to clothes. It was pretty full and heavy and my husband was glad it only needed carrying to the car and then the airport. It looks perfect for travel as carry-on with a max of 10 Kg but I am still to test that. Overall very pleased with the purchase, the travel pack will be useful and I'm certainly getting lots of value from the day pack!

Brilliant Product. Perfect For Our

Brilliant product. Perfect for our daughters travelling

Epic Combo

I bought this pack for my wife and the Farpoint 55 for myself to travel India for a few weeks. Having just got back, these packs turned out to be perfect for our needs, we could fit in everything for our trip so we could fly with only carry on luggage from Scotland. We used the small packs for everyday walkabouts as they are very light and carry just enough for a short adventure. I went for an overnight trek into the Himalayas and the 40l main pack did the job well, very comfy to wear even when fully loaded. I did lots of research and glad I went for this combo pack, will be using them for a lot more trips!

Love It But

I love my new bags, plus the accessory stuff bag & the gadget bag I bought too. The stuff bag is an absolute star & I used it everyday on holiday. However I wish I’d bought the fairpoint backpack on wheels as I found the fairview heavy when filled. I love all the Osprey range it’s very good quality & smart. I will be adding to my collection soon.

Has Potential But. . .

I bought this as, on receipt, I discovered the Fairview 40 isn't big enough for any trip longer than a weekend. It seems like a nice day pack but I'm very disappointed that there's no secure way of attaching it to the Fairview 40. I don't feel at all confident that it would still be attached to the main bag by the time I retrieved it from the luggage carousel. It would make much more sense if the Fairview 55 was one pack that was big enough for a longer trip. This would also avoid the need to carry around two sets of straps.

Doesn't Fit Petite Frame

Love the bag, looks perfect, but it's impossible to get it to fit comfortably on a 5ft 2ish female frame. It either digs too much into the back of my neck or the plastic bits on the straps knock against my inner arm. Support were super helpful so I'm going to return and hopefully swap for another model

Do Not Buy. Get The 40l Instead

It is not at all obvious from the website or any of the online reviews of this pack, but the large pack that is part of the 55L version is NOT the same as the 40L pack sold separately. The 40L pack has a top pocket and a laptop pocket and two other outside pockets. The large pack that is part of the 55L version has none of those things and it is a GIANT pain to not have them. I don’t like the daypack at all. It’s strangely narrow and the outside pockets are too small and the zip enclosure doesn’t open far enough. And for some reason it makes my shoulders incredibly, unreasonably sore when I wear it for more than a couple of hours, even when I don’t have much in it. That has never happened to me with any other backpack. Do yourself a favor; buy the 40L pack along with some other daypack from somewhere else. Any daypack with loops on the front big enough to run straps through will attach to the 40L pack. I wish Osprey would have made the differences between the two versions clear. That said, other things about the large pack are nice. It seems to be well-constructed. The backpack support system is comfortable—enough so that I took it on a six day mountain backpacking trip without discomfort. The main drawback is that it has essentially nothing in the way of internal organizational structure; it’s just one giant compartment. That the 55L lacks the external pockets of the 40L compounds this issue.

The Perfect Travel Pack

This travel pack has changed the way I travel, and all for the better. I traveled Europe for six weeks with no more than 3 nights in one place, and while I usually dread packing and repacking, these bags made it easy and fast, even as I collected souvenirs along the way. The main bag is simple, flexible, and larger than you might think. The smaller bag is a perfect daypack and attaches easily (on the back or front), making this the best hands-free travel I've ever experienced. It's comfortable to wear no matter how full it is, and the teal color is beautiful! The size allows it to be a carry-on on flights, so it saves me money as well as time. I can't recommend it enough!

Both Packs Are As Described.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Both packs are as described. Fits great & seems ideal for traveling (main purpose besides hiking). . . can't wait to try it out on the trails!

Fairview 55

Considering the cost of the bag and expertise of Osprey I'm surprised, and disappointed at the lack of external pockets for both rucksacks. Absolutely none on the big bag so nowhere to put keys, water bottle or any small items you might need to access quickly. Only 1 small pocket on the small rucksack. Lacking internal pockets too really compared to what I am used to, and need for travel.

Grey Gap Year

Bought to replace a different cheap rucksack for part 1 of our “Grey gap year”. POSITIVES: Not used in anger yet but loaded is comfortable, spacious and well designed. Compression straps assist in squeezing 6 months of clothing and kit in it! NEGATIVES: Unsure on the strap/clip design to hold the smaller rucksack to the front, don’t know if it’ll last for the whole year- we’ll see!

Great And Comfy Backpack

A decent backpack, big bonus that it comes with 2 bags! The bag is comfortable and is a tardis. Would have preferred if they offered it in a bigger size along with daypack but it's been treating me well on my travels around South America.
