Good choice for Japan if you are hiking to hostelling IMHO. I've been traveling to Japan for over 30 years now and I just bought one of these for my next trip.

Thanks for the detailed info. You have made my decision easy now. I have only done a couple of long walks, with my old 40l rucksack which was completely crap in the rain, (I found a lake inside it when I opened it). I was thinking of either the 65l atmost ag or the lt version this time, but couldnt decide on which one to get. You have now made the decision for me. Its the LT version that I wil be getting. Thanks again.

With respects, it maybe what you dont expect it to be, but we all have different expectations regarding a backpack. This LT is meant to be different from the normal one. ..saying that, Im 60 and have a long term back problem from my Army service, and have used all the Osprey Atmos range. They all have been perfect for me. I been out two days with this new one, and its just as good as the others but with more capacity. And suffered no back problems..It serves it puprpose,and definitely gets a great thumbs up from me 👍..

I got a 65LT. One point about holding trekking poles is that they can be twisted into the ice axe loops and held tight with the top strap. It’s not convenient to move them on the go but it’s very secure- you’ll never lose them

@@WillFaulkner Your video helped me to understand the differences between the AG LT and the original AB. I'm leaning towards the LT , if I get the Osprey - which is likely. - But I am also considering the Gossamer Gear Mariposa 60.

Was thinking about getting something lighter than my Aether 65 but, NO. I love the Aether because you can get in from bottom, top and front. It's a bit heavier but with a Load range 30 - 60 lbs, you know you get the stability.

I think you might have missed that your "old" AG 50 got replaced with a new AG series (differences are really minor). The AG LT series sits next to the new AG as just a less feature rich, lighter version of that. Nothing major, just the video presents the LT as a replacement for the AG which it's not meant to. LT is still a great choice 👍

Yea I don’t see it as a replacement. It’s more to compare which one is best depending on your needs.

Why did Osprey replace all of the heavy duty plastic buckles with much flimsier buckles on their new packs? I just bought an Osprey Atmos AG 50 at REI for $315 (July 2024). I like the pack, but what is the advantage of the flimsy plastic buckles? Gregory still uses the heavy duty plastic. The weight difference couldn't be more than an ounce; did they really save lots of money? Also Osprey replaced the strong elastic cords that hold the hiking poles (as shown in your video) with much flimsier cords that will break after a few years. I've had an Osprey Stratos 36 and my wife has had a Sirrus 24 for ten years. They are great packs (and they both came with built in rain covers). Why the quality downgrade on the new Osprey packs? Did this happen after the company founder sold to Helen of Troy in 2021?

You could if you had a sling of your own but it’s not designed that way. I’ve thought the same thing, it’s not hard to rig it up.
