Product Description
Osprey Meridian 22 Inch/60L Pack: Sports & Outdoors. Surrounded by heat, endless bustle, and vibrant energy, Team Vietnam designs and builds Osprey packs to the company's exacting standards. Nothing beats the convenience of a good travel bag, and the Osprey Meridian 22 delivers on several levels. Much of the time, the Meridian 22 looks like an ordinary wheeled travel bag, with a set of extra-large polyurethane wheels with sealed bearings and a three-position ergonomic handle. However, once you arrive at your destination and leave the airport, you can unleash the stowable harness and hip belt and turn the Meridian into a handy backpack. As a result, it's easy to transport the bag pretty much anywhere--through airport concourses, over dirt roads, and atop cobblestone streets. Just as importantly, each of the transport options is built for comfortable use, as the harness and hip belt are outfitted with a mesh-vented back panel and a padded lumbar, while the high-traction wheels are designed to roll easily and smoothly over all types of terrain. The Meridian 22's detachable daypack is ideal for shorter daytrips. The Meridian 22 is moderately spacious, with 2,500 cubic inches of space in the main pack and an additional 1,200 cubic inches in the detachable daypack--an ideal accessory for short hikes and daytrips. Storage options include a large main compartment with straps to prevent clothing migration, a side mesh pocket, and a side fabric pocket for organization. The daypack, meanwhile, offers such options as a padded laptop sleeve that fits up to 15.4-inch screens, a full mesh pocket for further organization, side water bottle pockets, and top and back-panel entry. Additional features include a large panel zip that gives you access to the main pack without removing the daypack, a curved high-clearance base, and top and side carrying handles. The main pack measures 14 by 22 by 9 inches (W x H x D)--the maximum legal size for airline carry-ons--while the daypack measures 10.5 by 19 by 5.6 inches. Together, the bags weigh 8 pounds 9 ounces and carry Osprey's lifetime warranty. About Osprey Things at Osprey move full circle, starting with the people, moving to the product, and then back again to the people for the lifetime of the product. Company founders Mike Pfotenhauer and Laurie White started the company in 1974 in Santa Cruz, California, introducing such features in the next few years as breathable mesh panels, custom-fit internal frame mountaineering packs, and slide adjustable chest straps. The company moved to a former Gore-tex factory in Dolores, Colorado, in 1990, and then to Cortez, Colorado, in 1994. Nestled in the corner of the rugged San Juan mountains and on the edge of vast sandstone canyon country, the Cortez landscape provides the Osprey team with constant inspiration and a superb testing ground for the packs. The remainder of the team, including Osprey founder and head designer Pfotenhauer, reside in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Living in HCM City provides several benefits, including the ability to ensure fair labor standards for the company's manufacturing employees and establish face-to-face relationships with the factories that build the company's packs.
