Product description of Osprey Exos 48L backpack

Description summary

The Osprey Exos 48L is an ultralight backpack designed for high-performance hiking. It offers exceptional comfort and ventilation thanks to its AirSpeed™ trampoline suspended mesh backsystem, keeping you cool and dry. This versatile pack features smart storage, including a front shove-it pocket and hipbelt pockets for easy access. Its innovative design allows for weight reduction by removing the top lid, with the FlapJacket™ providing closure. Built with durable, recycled materials, the Exos 48L is perfect for fast-and-light adventures, from weekend trips to thru-hikes

Osprey Exos 48L: Ultralight Performance & Unmatched Comfort for the Trail

Revolutionize your hiking experience with the Osprey Exos 48L, a masterclass in ultralight design engineered for hikers who demand performance without compromise. Designed for both men and women (with its counterpart, the Eja), this adult backpack is the ultimate companion for fast-and-light adventures, from weekend trips to demanding thru-hikes. Falling within the versatile 41-50 L capacity range, the Exos 48 provides ample space for your gear while helping you move faster, further, and with unparalleled comfort on the trail.

The heart of the Exos 48 is its category-leading carry comfort and ventilation system. At its core is the adjustable AirSpeed™ trampoline suspended mesh backsystem. This innovative design creates a generous air space between your back and the pack, promoting exceptional airflow that minimizes sweat and keeps you cool and dry, even during strenuous climbs on hot days. This tensioned back panel works in perfect harmony with the lightweight internal frame, ensuring the load is distributed evenly and comfortably, preventing pressure points and allowing you to focus on the journey ahead, not the weight on your shoulders.

The Exos offers all the benefits of a lightweight pack but without the normal compromises, helping you to move fast and light. Its intelligent design provides remarkable versatility to adapt to any trip. For minimalist pursuits, the removable floating top lid can be detached, and the integrated FlapJacket™ deploys to provide secure, weather-protected main compartment closure, shaving even more weight from your setup. Strategic storage options are built for efficiency on the move. The large, stretch-mesh front shove-it pocket is perfect for stashing a rain jacket or wet gear, while dual-access side pockets keep water bottles secure and accessible. The padded hipbelt not only provides stability but also features dual zippered pockets, keeping your snacks, phone, or GPS within easy reach.

Built for the rigors of the trail, this hiking pack combines durability with its featherlight construction. Removable sleeping pad straps and side compression cords allow you to streamline your load or attach extra gear as needed. Whether you are a seasoned thru-hiker counting every gram or a weekend warrior seeking superior comfort, the Osprey Exos 48 sets the standard for high-performance, ultralight backpacking.

Reservoir not included.

The Exos and Eja are high-performance ultra-light backpacking packs providing category-leading carry comfort and ventilation.

Very light and comfortable, with excellent back ventilation. Smart pockets, and the removable lid makes it easy to go even lighter. Great for fast hikes.

Product OK. Delivered several days later than they estimated. Ignore the estimated delivery date and assume it'll take about 10 days.

Mathias

Good product. I'm training for the Mammoth March. The only thing is that the hip belt could have been more padded around the hip bones and the surface area could have been larger. Otherwise, a great backpack. I hope the material lasts a long time.

Osprey Exos 48L backpack

Very good purchase

2026/03/14

José Antonio

A backpack with a very good capacity and a super light weight for a backpack of this type and quality, I think there´s nothing to say, Osprey is top. To find a flaw, I would say that the pockets are a little small for those of us who carry a large phone

Osprey Exos 48L backpack

Almost perfect!

2025/04/23

Anouche

Perfect. Just one minor flaw: the waistband pockets are a tad too small to fit an iPhone Pro Max. It's tight inside, and I'm worried it might tear over time.

I already own an Osprey Atmos AG 65 which I have used on multi day treks, and I was very pleased with the Airspeed back system which is comfortable and ventilates your back helping to keep you dry when you are perspiring heavily. I decided to get an Exos for shorter adventures, very pleased with it Being able

Sergei

Osprey Exos 48L backpack

Can anyone share experience of choosing right size for this backpack? There is two options - is the difference only in volume or the belt has different size / width?

Answer of Bart

The 48 has a larger volume than the 38, the straps are wider and it is meant for more kilos (so also weight). If you mean the difference between S/M vs M/L then it is the back panel and the length of the belly band.
