OSPREY STRATOS 34 is a ventilated hiking daypack with a volume of 34 liters, designed for 2–3 day hikes where maximum back breathability matters. Weighing around 1.0 kg it offers the suspended back system AirSpeed™, which creates a gap between the pack and the back – in summer you won't stick to it even during exertion. Add an integrated raincover and full trekking attachments.
Suspended AirSpeed™ back system – maximum breathability
The AirSpeed™ back system, made of tensioned mesh stretched over a metal frame, creates a gap between the pack and the back – air circulates freely and prevents sweating even on summer hikes. It is one of the best ventilation systems on the market – you will appreciate it in heat, high temperatures or more demanding ascents. The adjustable torso allows a precise fit.
Integrated raincover and trekking attachments
STRATOS 34 has a integrated raincover hidden in the bottom pocket to protect the pack in a sudden storm. It offers Stow-on-the-Go™ attachments for trekking poles, an ice axe attachment, two stretch side pockets, two zippered pockets on the hipbelt and a front pocket for wet gear. The main compartment has top and side access.

Advantages and disadvantages of the OSPREY STRATOS 34
✓ Advantages: best back breathability in the category, integrated raincover, adjustable torso, full trekking attachments, All Mighty Guarantee lifetime warranty, bluesign® certified materials.

Comparison: STRATOS 34 vs 34, TALON 22, SPORTLITE 25
OSPREY STRATOS 34 (34 L) is the bigger brother for 2–3 day hikes. OSPREY TALON 22 (22 L) has the AirScape™ back system closer to the back – better balance during scrambling, but lower breathability. OSPREY SPORTLITE 25 (25 L) has the same AirSpeed™ system at a lower price, but less organization. STRATOS is the best choice for people who sweat heavily.

STRATOS 34 is a men's hiking daypack (the women's equivalent is SIRRUS 24) recommended for 2–3 day hikes, summer treks in the mountains, mountain trail running and for people who sweat heavily. Also suitable as a travel daypack.
