Product Highlights

Featuring a removable, functional day pack and a hide-away harness and hipbelt, the versatile Osprey Meridian 28 is a feature-rich option for travelers. The 4600 cubic inch capacity Meridian 28 offers durable and convenient travel features, including integrated wheels, a retractable handle and multiple sewn-in handles.

Rugged polyurethane wheels and a sturdy 6001 aluminum frame equip the Meridian 28 for the rigors of life on the road. A molded base protects the portion of the packbag in front of the wheels from scrapes and scuffs. The design of the base offers high clearance which also cuts down on wear and tear. Hidden behind a zippered panel is a full suspension system with a ventilated backpanel, padded shoulder straps, a padded hipbelt, load-lifter straps and an adjustable sternum strap. When not in use, the entire system tucks safely back inside the security panel. The retractable handle and multiple integrated handles make it easy to transport the Meridian 28 and retrieve it from luggage carousels. A built-in "foot" enables the Meridian 28 to stand upright and doubles as an additional grab handle.

Protected by foam-walled side panels, the main packbag of the Meridian 28 is accessed through a durable, full-length wrap-around zipper. A large, zippered mesh pocket on the inside of the front panel is ideal for separating and organizing clothes and gear. Interior side-panel pockets provide further storage options. Internal compression straps help to secure the contents of the Meridian 28.

A large pocket on the front of the Meridian 28 can be detached for use as a fully functional day pack. Integrated shoulder straps and a padded backpanel provide stability and comfort. An adjustable sternum strap further enhances fit. The day pack has zippered backpanel access, as well as a large front pocket. Inside the pack, a zippered mesh pocket is designed to carry MP3 players, cell phones or other electronics and a fully padded sleeve safely stows laptops. When you’re ready to head back home at the end of your travels, the day pack safely and securely buckles and zippers back onto the front of the Meridian 28.

Constructed of durable 840D Junior Ballistic Nylon and 1680D Nylon, the Osprey Meridian 28 is available in your choice of color options.

Colors available: Black, Montero Blue, Ruby Port

Likes: Well designed, very accessible overall. Typical Osprey quality construction and warranty. Detachable daypack is perfect for long trips and multi-city backpacking.

Dislikes: The backpack has a strange entry / exit zipper, which can be nice for theft prevention but is difficult for quickly putting things away.

Likes: This pack converts quickly between wheeled luggage and a backpack. I looked at several similar models but this was my favorite.

The wheels are large and have a rubber tread which gives it better ground clearance over uneven terrain. The hip belt and straps are comfortable. the hip belt can be tucked inside the pack independently of the straps for shorter hikes. I liked this feature as I do not want to deal with the hassle of the belt when only carrying the pack short distances.

The extend-able handle feels very sturdy and I think the pack will hold up well over time.

Dislikes: The zipper that conceals the shoulder straps seems like it is a little flimsy and it is smaller than the main compartment zipper. If the straps are not folded properly they tend to bulge slightly and put a lot of pressure on this zipper. Make sure to fold the straps properly instead of forcing them and I think it will be fine.
