I’ve been using Osprey backpacks for backpacking for several years now, and have not found a comparison in quality. I do use a Marmot duffel/backpack combo for travel. It is great for being able to easily switch between the two options, but the backpack part of it cannot compare to a “real” backpack over time. The Osprey Fairview 70 is designed as a Travel Pack. It’s not intended for backpacking, but for use to replace your suitcase for people who prefer a backpack over a standard suitcase or duffel. It is perfect for travelers that only have one bag when they travel, although the one caveat is that the 70L, fully-packed, is likely too big for most airlines’ carry on. I have found you can make it work if you don’t fill it completely and use the compression straps strategically, but it is a big pack. The Fairview 70 gets its name due to its 70 Liter volume size. This the perfect size for travel. For multi-week backpacking, I usually use minimum 65L. 70 liters is enough for living out of your pack for months while globetrotting over the Summer, provided you pack minimally. At under 5 pounds, it is very lightweight. Like their other packs, it is feature0rich, with multiple compression straps to secure everything and make it easier to carry. I have used this pack fully-loaded for several hours with no discomfort. It is fully adjustable for your height and torso so you can get the perfect fit.

The Fairview is gender-specific to women, however I have only seen minimal differences between it and the men’s version (Farpoint).
