Top-selling hiking packs will launch with new
pro-level features and sustainable material updates
CORTEZ,
Colo., July 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Osprey
Packs, a leader in creating top-quality, high-performance
innovative carry solutions, will update its
best-selling Talon™ I Tempest Series for spring 2025 with
improved performance and functional concepts. The updated models
will see pro-level features upgrades; sustainable material
enhancements; expanded capacities; Extended Fit sizing and
contemporary color refreshes; resulting in the most versatile Talon
| Tempest offering to date. From a lumbar pack to ultralight
backpacks– hikers, bikers, and multi-sport users can choose from a
range of silhouettes and volumes to suit any adventure.
Pro-Level Features
The redesigned Talon | Tempest
packs will borrow standout features from the Pro Series model
offering an improved structure and fit in a lightweight design for
fast-moving demands of multi-sport athletes. With these borrowed
features, the new packs provide a ventilated, close-to-body design
through an innovative injection-molded framesheet and torso
adjustment system. A micro-adjustable sliding yoke allows for more
accurate fine-tuning, while a proprietary AirScape™ suspension
brings an improved fit and exceptional comfort. The packs are
rounded out with NanoFly™ fabric to add strength and
durability.
Sustainable Material Enhancements
In spring 2024, the
Talon I Tempest packs achieved Certified bluesign® PRODUCT
designations, and the updated models will see even more sustainable
materials with added recycled content. These new recycled
materials, informed by the brand's Earth Program, include 100%
recycled nylon webbing; 50% recycled EVA foam in the backpanel and
waist belt; 100% recycled polypropylene injection-molded
framesheet; and mesh fabric made from minimum 87% recycled content
used on the backpanel, harness, and water bottle and shove-it
pockets.
Carry Options
In addition to specialized fits for male
and female bodies, the Talon I Tempest Series comes in five
capacities, from 11 to 44-liters, adaptable for day hikes, bike
rides, light-and-fast overnights, and multi-day trips. The
collection also debuts a versatile 6-liter lumbar pack that can be
used as a standalone piece for quick excursions and or as an
attachment to the other Talon | Tempest packs for overnight or
multi-day trips.
As part of the redesigned offering, the 6-liter and 33-liter
Talon I Tempest models will be offered in Extended Fit sizing,
joining the existing 22-liter EF pack to provide more options
for inclusive fit and uncompromised, optimal performance for bigger
bodies.
Ranging in price from $90 to
$220, the upgraded Talon I Tempest
Series will be available in a variety of new seasonal colors,
including bold blue, vibrant red, and cool mint hues. The packs
will be available beginning in February
2025 at osprey.com and at specialty retailers in over
60 countries worldwide. All prices are manufacturer's suggested
retail prices.
