Farpoint
The Farpoint 55 by Osprey is an ideal men's travel backpack for travelers seeking a versatile solution to move with agility and comfort in every part of the world. This backpack combines the technical features of trekking models, such as the LightWire peripheral frame and the AirScape ventilated back, with the practicality of a soft suitcase. The real strength of this model is the presence of a removable 15-liter daypack, perfect for short explorations or as personal luggage, which allows the main body to fit within the carry-on size of most airlines when separated. The suspension system, which includes breathable mesh shoulder straps and a hip belt, is adjustable in torso length and can be completely hidden behind a zippered panel to protect it during checked luggage transport. Access to the main compartment is wide and front-facing to facilitate loading and unloading, while the zippers are equipped with lockable sliders for added security. Made with robust 100% recycled nylon fabrics approved by bluesign and treated with PFAS-free DWR, the Farpoint 55 offers internal and external WingJacket compression straps to stabilize the load and keep everything organized during your travels.

Trying to find a good travel backpack for Hawaii and other trips. What do you guys look for to know it’s bifl
Osprey Farpoint with a detachable daybag. Was able to clip my daybag onto my main pack and it all worked as one singular item at check-in. When you're living out of a suitcase and traveling having a second backpack helps tremendously. Osprey's detachable daybag is great for that without increasing total bulk. It can also be attached to the front to equally distribute weight.

I got an Osprey Farpoint a few years back for a trip to Thailand and it's been my go-to ever since for everything from weekend hiking trips to a two-week vacation. Super comfy straps, tons of smart pockets, and it’s held up like a champ despite all the abuse.

I got an osprey farpoint 8 years ago and it has held up amazingly well. My partner bought the same one last year and it was so surprising to see that the quality had gone downhill!
