Osprey says:
Going light is relative. Wilderness climbing objectives, winter camping, extended backpacking in remote places — the simple truth is these trips require heavy loads. For the experienced backpacker, guide, mountaineer or adventurer, there’s no better tool for the job than the Aether/Ariel Pro Series, featuring modern fabrics, streamlined features and the comfort and durability demanded by expert outdoor enthusiasts everywhere.
MAXIMUM CARRY, MINIMAL WEIGHT - Combines our most capable load-bearing suspension with a versatile, simplified, strippable bag design that reduces pack weight to a minimum. Carry the lightest pack possible, without compromising on comfort, custom fit and heavy-weight capability.
UP-SPEC SUSPENSION - Benefit from our most heavy-duty, fully customisable backpacking suspension system in a more lightweight, streamlined package.
PRO-WORTHY DURABILITY - Constructed with our technical NanoFly™ fabric, which is reinforced with a double-grid UHMWPE
ripstop for outstanding strength and durability for the those who are roughest on their gear.
CUSTOMISABLE CARRY - Versatile bag design features strippable components, including the toplid, hipbelt pockets and side compression straps, so you can tune your pack depending on what your adventure requires.
