Product Highlights

Ideal for dayhiking or fast-and-light multi-day backpacking, the Osprey Talon 44 is sleek and functional. Weighing less than 3 pounds, the Talon 44 is still capable of comfortably carrying loads of up to 40 pounds.

Employing ridge molded foam and built-in air channels, the Talon 44's AirScape backpanel provides flexible support and breathability to combat heat build-up between your back and the pack body. A lightweight, aluminum headrail and peripheral frame support weight and distribute your load. Integrated torso adjustability allows the Talon 44 to accommodate users of different sizes. The Small/Medium Talon 44 fits torsos less than 19" in length and the Medium/Large size fits torsos that exceed 19" in length. Both the hipbelt and harness straps are padded, covered in mesh and perforated to keep weight to a minimum. Together they enhance comfort and optimize fit. Side compression straps allow you to cinch down the Talon 44 to keep contents safely in place and aid in load control.

The storage capacity of the Small/Medium Talon 44 is 2600 cubic inches and the Medium/Large is 2700 cubic inches. The top-loading packbag of the Talon 44 is accessed through a removable top lid. A zipper on the front of the pack grants access to the lower portion of the packbag. Stretch woven pockets on the front and sides of the Talon 44 offer additional organizational options and keep gear and extra layers close at hand. Small dedicated stretch pockets on the Talon 44's shoulder straps are perfect for snacks, energy gels or electronics. Large, zippered stretch mesh pockets on the hipbelt offer quick and easy access to other gear and essentials.

Other features found on the Talon 44 include dual ice axe/trekking pool loops with accompanying tool tie-offs and integrated straps for lashing sleep pads. A lined, exterior compartment makes the Talon 44 hydration compatible and makes it possible to refill your hydration reservoir (sold separately) without having to access the interior of the pack.

The Osprey Talon 44 is available in your choice of size and color options.

Styles available: Medium/Large Meteorite, Small/Medium Indigo, Small/Medium Meteorite
