If every gram matters but you still need to count on your backpacking pack for a supportive carry, then the Osprey Eja 48 is for you.
Reach for the Eja 48 for the perfect mid-size ultra-light, with plenty of room to put in the miles, but not so much that you're tempted to overpack.
Highly experienced backpackers will appreciate industry-leading comfort and ventilation—without the weight it often adds—making it the perfect pack for committing thru-hikes and ultralights like the Te Araroa.
Need to trim some extra weight? An integrated FlapJacket takes the place of the removable floating lid in a pinch.
Plus, the refined AirSpeed® suspension keeps you cool with maximum airflow between you and your pack, so each mile stays as comfortable as the last.
Made with 100% recycled materials.
