This Versatile Osprey Backpack Is $40 Off at Cabela's Right Now, and It's Perfect for Long Day Hikes originally appeared on Men's Journal.
Students, travelers, and hikers agree: Having a great backpack is non-negotiable. There are packs of all shapes and sizes for all use cases, but a smaller daypack is as close to a universally useful piece of luggage as it gets. Right now, Cabela’s has a great one from one of the most trusted brands in outdoor gear on clearance with a $40 price cut.
The Osprey Heritage Simplex 20 Backpack is just $100 at Cabela’s right now, a 29% discount from its normal $140 price tag. It’s a svelte bag in a classic dark pine green, black, and grey colorway that comes with Osprey’s All Mighty Guarantee.
This pack is made of NanoFly 500-denier high tenacity nylon, 1,000-denier korda recycled nylon accents, and 210-denier recycled nylon webbing with a PFC-free durable water repellent treatment that keeps moisture out of the interior. It’s a 20-liter frameless pack that weighs just over 2 pounds, kitted out with padded shoulder straps, sternum straps, a web belt, and a breathable spacer mesh back panel.
Inside the backpack, you’ll find a large stash pocket with a key clip and front panel access. There’s a laptop sleeve that’s also made for a hydration bladder, with a hole to run a drinking hose through. And speaking of that front panel, it's where you’ll find a large zippered pocket and a daisy chain for attaching carabiners and hooks as needed.
The Osprey Heritage Simplex 20 Backpack is a compact, highly functional backpack that suits a range of different use cases. It’s worth grabbing at full price, so the chance to save a cool $40 on a durable, versatile daypack is one anyone who could use a great everyday backpack should not miss. Just beware: it’s on clearance, so when this backpack is gone, it’s likely gone for good.
