This exact pack isn't available anymore (at least from us!) but we do have the latest Aether range here: www.trekitt.co.uk/facetresults.aspx?Term=aethe
Why have Osprey done away with AG? I thought it was meant to be the dog's danglies.
@@philwilson3251 Good question. One for Osprey I think!
Best commentary on this backpack! Covered things that others missed.
Thank you for your thoroughness. I didn't even hear anyone else mention the J-zip. And as a landscape photographer, that's a HUGE advantage everyone else failed to mentioned.
Now this is how a review should be done. Good job, thank you.
Thanks for tour kind comments. Paul.
Great review guys. I have the Atmos 50, and I love it, I can load it up and it's still comfortable. Osprey really know how to make a great pack.
I bought one of these and was a bit confused by all the multiple clips and loops and this video was really helpful in making sense of it all. Thanks very much!
I bought this pack before I read or watched any reviews and I echo most of what he says, I can't believe how amazingly lightweight this bag is when there's 20k in it! Definitely one of my best purchases of 2021
Good choice of pack! Glad to hear you're getting on with it - it's a bit of a beast. Harry
Exactly what I was looking for in a review video..
I've had the AG 70 for a few years now, and always wondered what the two extra female buckles were for.. Yours explained it wonderfully. Also learned a few other things I didn't know about the pack.
Keep up the good work 👍
Can you take it to flight as carry-on bag?
As always, a fantastically practical and informative review. Cheers!
Far and away hands down the best video on this pack out there well done guys and thank you for your time and effort on this guys.
Thanks for your kind comments, we always try to give our best. Paul.
Great video. I got this on black Friday for £120! There are so many features and this has explained all of them very well. Thanks
What a great review. I live in NZ & am in the market for a new pack, after watching this review I now know what I'm buying! Thanks guys.
Thank you for making this video. I am seriously considering this pack for my first serious pack.
How has it worked out for you? I'm thinking about getting it!
@@savierhernandez7391 I got the 60 Liter version and it works fine for me. I spend a lot of time outside and I can fit everything I need in there. It's very durable, I once hiked 7 miles in a straight line through rough terrain and the pack got no damage. The raincover takes up much space in the top, but that's OK for me. The sleeping bag compartment can easily fit a 3 season sleeping bag in there. The hib belt pockets easily fit a smartphone, food or gloves. It's really a great pack, but I got mine on sale for around 170 dollars. I never regret it and for me, it's one of the best packs on the market, because of the Anti-Gravity system
It makes 20 kilos feel like 15 kilos and in summer, it won't prevent sweat but I sweat a lot less wearing this pack all day long
This is a very useful video. I've actually got one of these packs but didn't realise how fully featured it was until I watched your video, especially the tip about attaching a small day pack on the outside of the Aether. Thank you, nice work!
the "brain" opens up into a day pack. one of the reasons why I decided to purchase it. Surprised he didnt show it off.
Unfortunately the version that Osprey sell here in the UK does not have this feature. Instead the pack comes with a rain cover which Osprey say is a more useful feature her in wet rainy Europe, they may be right! @@richoconnor8336
I have this pack and it is indeed a beautifull multi functional pack.
Thanks for a superb concise review, the most informative review with no waffling....I am off to purchase..
Thanks for the fantastic review. I bought this pack from REI Outlet and I was surprised at just how little information there is in its use. Things like adding a secondary pack using the hidden loops or what the extra buckle clips on the side were for (cinching the compression straps when the pack is less full) were left out of any instructional information from Osprey. You laid it out in very straight forward fashion that left me with many "a-ha" moments. Osprey doesn't even address the pockets and storage in the Daylid. So thanks again for this in-depth breakdown of the Aether. I am now feeling more confident about my purchase and looking forward to using it soon.
Hey. I did not see in the review how the backpack itself is pressed against the hip belt. Are there any drawbacks between the body of the backpack and the hip belt, like on other backpacks?
He is the best reviewer ever!
Hi there cheers for sharing video. I bought an Aether AG 70 last October but not had the use of it yet due to busting my knee. Looking forward to getting to use it this year and have planned on doing the Cateran Trail beginning of May - The Great Glen Way & Speyside Way in June - The East Highland Way in August before going to Morocco. Glad I seen your as I did not know you can clip another rucksack into the Aether AG. Will look into this. I was looking at taking my old Osprey Kestrel with me for on the plane and for short trips -- cheers for that info. Many thanks for sharing with us
Brilliant presentation and summary of the packs best points, I'm torn between this and the Osprey AG 60, Many thanks for helping me to weigh things up, please continue making these great reviews. p.s. I do love your boots, nice style, I'm also on the market for a decent pair of trekking shoes, awesome stuff!
Thank you for a real world look at the backpack. I appreciate they attention to detail. This pack is a million times better than the rucks, framed and not framed, including my big Tactical Tailor pack. The materials are not as durable, but hopefully I'm not low crawling across a mountain face with my Osprey. :) I just picked up this pack, still brand new, on Offer Up. (got a great deal at that!) Prepping for a 12 day trek at Philmont Scouting High Adventure! One thing I noted about my Aether 70 AG was that the rainfly wasn't included with the pack. I love the features. not sure I'll use the day pack that comes with it, but it's still a nice feature. Thanks again!
Great video! Thanks for the extended look into the backpack. Very well explained.
This is the Pack I need in my life!!! This is PERFECT in EVERY WAY!!! Going to order this. I'm doing a VERY long Canoe / Hiking Trip. 740 miles to be exact!
Good luck with your MASSIVE trip! I'm sure that the Aether will serve you well.
Please review more Osprey bags! The Aether pro or the Xenith series would make for a nice comparison. Keep up the good work!
This is a really great full video review 👍
Perfect for going through the whole backpack and how each element of it can get used.
Very much worth the time.
Thanks very much!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
Thanks for the review I found it very interesting. This is my first grown up bag as currently I have been using army surplus which is a bit heavy. The review has highlighted lots of very helpful uses for pockets and straps I didn't know about. Excited about using it outside rather than my kitchen 😂
Fantastic overview of this pack! Thank you for keeping me sane trying to figure out everything this pack has to offer
Glad to be of service! Paul.
Why would anyone dislike this? this is the most informative video I’ve ever seen
Thanks for your kind comments.
Excellent backpack!
Very comfortable.
I have (Eight very happy months with it).
I really like your channel
Greetings from Veracruz,México!
best review of this pack that I have seen. Thanks
Hi David, high praise indeed! Thanks for watching. Paul.
Another great unbelievable review of yours. I love Osprey packs, they really are THE benchmark but, most of all, they really protect your back. I own a Stratos 34 (s/m) latest series and I can walk for hours on end without any issue to my back. Simply unbelievable.
Thanks for your kind comments and for watching. We're all big fans of Osprey packs too.
The frame of the bag squeaks that's the only draw back but it makes up for it by looking really cool
@Curtis zzstu Jeffress of course it is one of the factors...
Thanks for this fantastically informative video
Amazing review. It's long, but each minute was insightful and not repetitive so it actually felt as twice as shorter. Well done.
Thanks for the thorough look at this pack. I'm new to backpacking and at my height 6'6" the XL seems like a good fit for me.
I'd recommend going and getting measured at an REI or other outdoor store if you have access to one. I'm 6'4" and thought I'd be a large as well, but when they measured me it turned out a medium would be a better fit. It's all about your torso length! Cheers!
Thanks for that great review :) I will buy one tomorrow.
Thanks, you showed great features that others didn't!
Excellent video & review. Looking for a pack (walking the South West Coat path in May 2020) so this review has been very handy. Going to go for the 85 litre version though.
Great review keep em coming....
Well done and TY for this vid!
Bought one of these from Trekitt, excellent pack, excellent service.
One thing I will say is get the adjustable back length right, just a slight change made the world of difference
Hi Alex, thanks for getting your Aether form Trekitt. You're absolutely correct, the fit of the pack is so important and those minor adjustments can make a world of difference. We've put together a video on pack fitting - th-cam.com/video/Sl1yJakKp-4/w-d-xo.html
Excellent review. I just got one and this helped me decide.
Thank you!
The best video. Thanks
best pack i have ever owned, comfy spacious and bombproof love it mun ATB Kaizer
Great review. Thank you.
Thank you. Great explanation.
Excellent "real world" review. The owner of our local shop did a great job fitting this pack for me. My model is older, equipped with the "day pack" lid instead of the pack cover and underneath mesh pocket. Your set up is more practical; however, the pack is just plain excellent and easy to carry. Night and day from the huge mountaineering pack I suffered with for years. Your pack organization is excellent.
Hi Casey. It's so good to hear that you got yourself a proper packfit, it makes all the difference! Thanks for your comments and enjoy using the pack. Paul.
@@trekitt Very happy with Osprey.
Excellent vid!
Just got mine, have yet to try it on the track though but great review for all these features I didn't know exist!
I would like to add that on the EU version the top pack does actually double up as a daypack aswell (the US version have proper shoulder straps), BUT you have to remove the hip belt and use it together with the top pack it works wonderfully well as a hip belt/day pack. Thanks! :)
Emil Erlandsson you are so awesome learning me this. It looks like no one selling this pack knows about this in the Netherlands... Thanks!
being able to put the daylite pack on the front is actually genius
Awesome.. you have definitely made up my mind on this one .. cheers Chris & Sam
You won’t be disappointed!
@@trekitt Cheers buddy .. Happy New year ..
Top notch review Mr Trekitt.
Why thank you Mr On Any Sundry Mule.
Excellent video.
Brilliant review - thank you
No, thank you! Paul.
Good review. I’ve been looking at this pack for my new hunting kit. The only thing I’ve found that is a little disappointing is the the day lid bag is only available on the USA model at the moment. However osprey have said they are going to be selling it in Europe as of from feb 2920 as an accessory. I think the days of dedicated hunting back is over. That said a bow or rifle boot ad on would complete this pack for me.
Really good review. Thanks! Make the Atmos and Exos reviews please.
We'll add them to the list!
I bought this pack last week and this review/tutorial is super helpful. One of the best vids on this pack on TH-cam. Thanks.
Can you do a review on the REI Co-Op quarter dome 1 tent?
Thank you for the kind words! I'm afraid we can only review items that we stock, so unfortunately we aren't able to cover that particular tent.
Didn't know there was a large or a medium. Bought one last week and I've just checked after watching the video, I got a large and I'm only 5'6", will measure back in morning to make sure. But thankfully I haven't taken the tags off yet. 😅
Great video I'm considering this backpack too.
You should!
Excellent review. Have had my Aether 70 2 years and learned more about it. Important to note the j zip is not on the 60. One of the reasons I stepped up to the 70. Mine didn’t come with a rain cover. Perhaps that’s a difference in the US version. 45 lbs is still 45 lbs, but noticeably different feeling after a full day with this system. Couldn’t decide between the orange and the blue, so went with the green also :).
That's good to know; glad you're enjoying your time with it!
Thanks great information
Another great video! Thanks. / Krister Berglund, Sweden
Hi Krister, thanks for your kind comments, we love making these videos.
Great review. Really.
But I sat around and waited for the Daylid daypack feature😊
You still covered everything in depth and kt was great😊👍
The UK version doesn't have this feature; we get a raincover instead of the daypack lid. Kind regards, Harry.
Thanks😊✌️
Awesome review thanks so much.
Hi Craig, it's one of my favourites too, I loved filming the review out in the mountains. Paul.
Thanks for this video! I have the pack and needed a little guide to some of the toggles and loops i didn't really know the true purpose of.. (i might have thrown the manual in the bin?.....)
Glad to have helped, thanks for watching, Paul.
I just bought this backpack before watching this review and I'm now even more excited about it! I'm not planning to go trekking but I'm just going to use it as a replacement for a suitcase when I'm traveling
I just ordered the 85 liter. It might replace the 75 liter INCH bag I have. I like the features on my 75 from Amazon, but Ospreys have a good reputation and I got a heck of a deal. Also the extra 10 liters would allow more things inside the bag instead of hanging them on the outside.
Excellent reviews!
You're welcome, thanks for watching.
Awesome review!
Thanks!
I've had this pack for almost a year and have used it on a bunch of sections on the AT. It's a great pack and this is a great review. The anti gravity feature alone makes this pack great. I honestly had no idea there was a section for a water bag inside. I thought it was just a separate storage area. One thing you did not mention is that the lid can convert into a small back pack for a day trip or side trip. That's another cool feature of this pack.
One thing you did not mention is that the lid can convert into a small back pack for a day trip or side trip. No, it doesn't this is a European model it has the rain cover instead.www.ospreyeurope.com/shop/gb_en/aether-ag-70
@@glidezilla OK. Interesting.
I bought this back pack in the UK and got really excited about the brain being a day bag but as it rains everyday in England a rain cover is probably better (boring tho)
@@glidezilla not true i live in sweden and they have the same bag with the day trip pack and a rain cover
Thx i bought that pack and now i know what al the little straps and lashes are for
No problem, glad you found the video useful. Harry.
Excellent and detailed review. I would have appreciated to see the bag pack on your back.
We'll make a note for next time!
Thanks mate, I am going to the rainforest amazone jungle tropical places. Let's hope it will do. It matches the colours tho :)
Have a great trip!
Good video and well explained. You just forgot the whistle 😂
Well spotted! Thanks for watching.
Is it possible to purchase the daypack top separately, making it able to swoop between lids?
Thanks for investing time into making a thorough review, I found it extremely helpful. I would like to know if you ship to India and provide the warranty/guarantee too
Hi, thanks for watching and for your kind comments, unfortunately we do not ship to India.
NOTE THIS: i have bought it, with just 5 liters of load capacity under my previous backpack (Karimor, a beast but with an outdated suspension system).
HOWEVER: when packing, I noticed that to the most extent it does not carry 70 liters unless you really hardcore stuff it to the max. Which makes operating with the pack a serious challenge on a daily basis.
RESUME: if you are really to pack 70 liters and often need to pack/unpack, maybe go for the 85 liter! I love the suspension system, but as a "packer" I personally think the Fjallraven Kajka is a beter option, however their suspension is very medium.
ow yes i did a reasearch with pillows and luggage. And that's how I found out..!
Great review by the way!
Thanks for watching. Please note that the internal volume stated on packs is not an exact measurement. each brand has their own idea of what a "litre" is, and much like footwear, sizes will vary across different brands. Paul.
@@SytzeWiersma Hello Sytze, are you saying that the pack empirically has 65 litres of capacity by your computations? And if so, are you including or excluding the top box and rear pockets etc. Kind regards.
I have one in blue. Its good
Hi Max, good colour choice!
Great thanks 😊
You're welcome 😊
That’s video. Thanks.
You're welcome
Hi. Enjoyed watching your video. Thought you did a very thorough and good job with the review.
I recently purchased this pack and even though it is a US model, your video will be of help to me.
Question: Where did you film this?
Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words. It was filmed at the base of the Cat's Back (or Black Hill), Wales. Kind regards, Harry.
If I'm not mistaken, that top piece that you removed early on in the video folds out to form a day pack.
Hi Steven, only on US models I'm afraid. The top lid on UK models is just removable.
Did you mention the brain is also a day pack or did I miss that? Cause it has its own shoulder straps
The UK version doesn't contain this feature unfortunately.
great vid. if only I could afford one :-(
Great review though.
Anyone knows why Osprey discontinued the Aether AG in 2021??
The Aether Plus have the same comfort?
You didn't mention how the top section of the pack can be taken off and used as a day pack
The version for the UK doesn't have the ability to transform into a daypack, it features a raincover inside the top pocket instead.
Would you recommend this over the Arcteryx Bora 63 backpack? In terms of comfort/load carry? Perhaps about 13-17 kg?
I personally find the Aether more comfortable, but the Bora is an immensely capable bag. If you can, I'd order both and try them both on as this will be the main deciding factor. Harry
So you chose color of pack (green) because.....? I.e a) hides dirt better , b) can camo easier, c) all that was available d) other..just curious as have several green packs as well as blue. Great review by the way ..thanks.
It was the only one available at the time!
Thanks. Was first time viewed any of your videos and did not realize you were in business vs an individual backpacker type of thing. Just purchased same backpack on weekend and am leaning on returning for green colored as prefer blending in with surrounding vs blue for example..thus my query.
Great video!! Thank you so much. I will keep this pack instead of the deuter vario futura i also ordered! It was such an hard decision.
Both good choices, but I'm sure that you'll be happy with the Osprey. Thanks for watching.
Trekitt thanks!! Ive bought it, unluckely i had to abort the trip i was making due to the corona virus
Mine came with a day bag instead of a rain cover
The UK version is supplied with a raincover, whereas the US comes with a daypack.
How will it handle flying glows from a fire?
Not well! The Aether is made from a synthetic material which will melt! Keep your kit away from the fire!
I can't find the rain cover on my Aether AG 70, are there different models, or am I just missing something?
I believe only the EU version has an included raincover, whereas the US version's lid converts into a daypack instead. I can't be 100% sure of this though, as we've never physically held the US version. Kind regards, Harry.
What's the difference between Aether 70 and Aether Pro 70? Which one is better? Please guide me. I want to buy one among this bagpack.
Unfortunately we don't stock the Aether Pro, but having had a browse on Osprey's website, it seems the Pro is more streamlined, quite a bit lighter (1.8kg vs 2.3kg) and has some additional removable parts. Kind regards, Harry.
Did you say this bag is waterproof? Can't decide out of this bag or the rook 65 👍
It includes a raincover to make it waterproof (from above), but it isn't waterproof without the raincover.
I currently have the Rook 65. It is too basic with only two external side pockets for water bottles and the like. The Aether is a by far better pack and choice. The USA version has a built-in day pack at the top where he showed the raincover. Consider the Aether or Atmos.
I have done the jmt, pct, at with this pack. I have hiked around mars in this pack. Took this pack into the mariana trench. Went into a live volcano. Went back in time with it. The only thing I would change is that it
Please finish the story ...... or are you still stuck back in time pre internet?
Hey Paul ! I'm about to get this one in the 85L version but I found there was another 85L+ pack : the Xenith. Do you have any experience with this one ? My main concern is about comfort as I have slight back problems. Thank you and have a nice day !
I'm afraid we don't stock the Xenith, so I can't check first hand, but having had a look on their website it seems the main difference is the Xenith uses a slightly more rudimental backsystem, whereas the Aether uses a suspended mesh backsystem with more adjustability. If you can, I'd try both and pick which one is more comfortable. Kind regards, Harry.
@@trekitt thanks!
Does the rain tarp come with it?
Hi Kaleb, yes, the rain cover is included with the pack.
Did he show the built in day pack? I don't think he did
The version for the UK doesn't have the ability to transform into a daypack, it features a raincover inside the top pocket instead. Kind regards, Harry.
Which will you recommend between this aether ag 70 and low alpine Cerro Torre 65-85 or 80-100 backpacks
How can these two can be compared
And also i think osprey packs are lighter in weight than low alpine am i right??
When purchasing a rucksack of this size and price, I would base your decision on how they fit. Try both on if you can; preferably with some weight in.
@@trekitt what's the difference between aether and aether plus
I own a Kestrel 68 but i need somewhat bigger size backpack
I m thinking between aether plus 85 and farpoint trek 75 in terms of space and comfort mainly for travel purpose
WOW THE BEST BACKPACK EVER. DO THEY HAVE RED COLOR?
Afraid not. Blue or green.
AH OK. SO I WOULD RATHER GO WITH ATMOS RED THEN. TNX FOR THE REPLY
