The second new pack is the Talon 44, it’s a lightweight pack and Osprey claims it weights only to be 1.05 kilos. Even though it’s a real lightweight sac it holds quite a few features, backpanel ventilation, shoulder harness adjustment, hip-belt pockets, stretch front pocket, compression system and an alloy-tubed perimeter frame. The pack will be released later this year.
