This is unusual. It took me ages to get used to, and for weeks I kept trying to open the pack using the plastic buckle that is situated on the top lid of the pack, where the clip is found on most bags. On the lower half of each side of the main compartment is a mesh pocket with elasticized top edge. They are water-bottle pockets, and have been designed with great consideration for the needs of adventure runners, for whom hydration is essential.
The pockets are deep, each amply holding a mL bottle. This is true even when the main compartment of the pack is full. The other brilliant thing about their design is that they are angled slightly backwards, so that the top of the water bottle is tilted fractionally towards the direction you are facing. This makes it easier to pull the bottles out and put them back in, while running. Overall, excellent design and performance. The main compartment is basically a cylindrical sack with a drawstring closure.
The main compartment holds a LOT of stuff. You could easily get a medium-thickness winter coat in here along with shoes, clothes and lunch. As you can see in the photo above, there is a zipped pocket on the top of the hood that covers the main drawstring compartment of the pack.

As you can see in the photo above, there is a zipped pocket on the top of the hood that covers the main drawstring compartment of the pack. This zipped pocket is almost the same width across as the hood itself, so it can hold a wallet and phone, or even a small Tupperware container, easily.
The back is kept firm and self-supporting by a removable foam pad that sits inside the main compartment in its own sleeve. There are two identical pockets on either side of the waist belt.
Both pockets close with zips. You must be logged in to post a comment. Jun 7, John Surginor. John's always had a great love for the mountains. Latest posts by John Surginor see all. Osprey Atmos 65 AG rucksack review.
