Product Description
Osprey Slipstream 18 Inch/30L Pack: Sports & Outdoors. Surrounded by heat, endless bustle, and vibrant energy, Team Vietnam designs and builds Osprey packs to the company's exacting standards. Offering everyday convenience in an ingenious wheeled body, the Osprey Slipstream 18-inch/30-liter bag is ideal for casual use, business travel, school, and a host of other applications. All Osprey wheeled travel packs employ Osprey's proprietary High Road chassis, which makes the bag easy to tote wherever you go. The Slipstream's High Road chassis makes it easy to wheel the bag to school or through an airport. The High Road chassis offers such features as a 6001 aluminum frame, an ergonomic retractable handle with integrated vent fins, an ultra-durable and lightweight composite base with a fiberglass matrix inlay, an integrated foot/grab handle, and oversized, high-traction wheels with sealed bearings and a high clearance design. The Slipstream also includes a top-loading, lockable access pocket, which provides entry to a padded laptop sleeve, a full office organizer, and a zippered mesh pocket for quick-access items. And travelers will love the bag's dirty clothes compartment, which keeps your clean apparel from absorbing odors from your worn clothes. The bag's dirty clothes compartment isolates your used apparel. To accommodate air travelers, the Slipstream also includes a few airport-friendly features. The built-in liquids/accessory pocket, for example, provides quick access to liquids when passing through airport security. The retractable business card/name tag holder, meanwhile, delivers quick, protected identification. Finally, all Osprey travel packs feature TSA-lockable zips. Other features include a zippered mesh front-panel pocket and internal compression straps to keep clothing from migrating through the bag, a document pocket, and handy webbing slide-over straps for carrying a Glide laptop case/portable workstation on your travel handle. The Slipstream 18--which offers a storage capacity of 30 liters (1,800 cubic inches)--measures 14 by 19 by 9 inches (W x H x D), weighs 6 pounds 5 ounces, and carries a 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 many benefits, including the ability to ensure fair labor standards for the company's employees and establish face-to-face relationships with the factories that build the company's packs.
