Expanding on their legacy of superbly designed, great fitting women's specific backpacks, Osprey now offers the Aura 50 backpack for ladies who seek superlight backpacking gear. Placing an emphasis on lightweight, durable materials without sacrificing load-carrying comfort, the team at Osprey borrowed the supportive AirSpeed suspension from their popular Atmos series packs. They then reshaped the pack frame, shoulder harness, and hipbelt to create a women's specific fit. The Osprey Aura 50 women's backpack is extremely comfortable, even in the midst of the most fast-paced, intense adventures. All contact surfaces are either breathable mesh or perforated, molded waffle foam for maximum air circulation. On the backpanel this is accomplished by stretching the mesh over the flexible, ergonomic frame. And even if loaded down with extra camping gear, the ErgoPull hipstrap system completes a chain of sophisticated suspension and hipbelt components that efficiently distribute the weight, greatly reducing the chance for hot spots. Proper hydration is a key to the light and fast approach, so the Osprey Aura 50 backpack includes multiple options for carrying your favorite liquid nourishment. A hydration bladder fits snugly in a cavity behind the backpanel or in a sleeve within the main compartment. Convenient tubing portholes allow for left or right side positioning. Additionally, the stretch woven side pockets accept 1-liter water bottles or other assorted gear. Loading the Osprey Aura 50 backpack is easy, with a main compartment, zippered floating top pocket and twin front pockets with water resistant zips to choose from. Over the top of the twin front pockets a spacious stretch woven sleeve pocket with adjustable closure strap can handle most anything, including helmets and ropes. Easy access to small items is also possible when placed in either of the zippered mesh hipbelt pockets. Recommended carry weight is 35 - 45 pounds. For even faster adventures, be sure to check out
