The Osprey Exos 48 is a mid-size ultralight backpacking pack built for multi-day trips where every ounce counts. Its 48-liter capacity gives you enough room for the miles without tempting you to overpack, and the AirSpeed suspension keeps air moving between you and the pack so each mile stays comfortable.

The Exos 48 is made with 100% recycled materials and a bluesign approved recycled 100D high tenacity nylon ripstop with PFC/PFAS-free DWR. A removable floating lid converts to the integrated FlapJacket for lidless use, while dual zippered hipbelt pockets, dual-access stretch mesh side pockets, and a front stretch mesh pocket keep gear organized and within reach.

Adjust the torso length using the injection-molded ladder adjustment system, which provides 4 inches of torso adjustability. Tighten the ExoForm hipbelt with the ErgoPull closure to transfer load to your hips, then adjust the 15 mm slide sternum strap. Use the Stow-on-the-Go trekking pole attachment to secure poles without removing the pack, and the dual ice axe loops with bungee tie-off for ice tools.
