Why We Love the Osprey Skimmer 20L Backpack
The Osprey Skimmer 20L Backpack is the perfect companion for all your day hikes and day trips. Designed specifically for women, this backpack offers a comfortable fit and ample storage space for your essentials. With a 20-liter capacity, it's just the right size to carry your lunch, camera, and extra layers for a long hike or enjoy a weekend festival with enough room for your water, snacks, and a new festival tee.
One of the standout features of the Skimmer is its women-specific fit. It ensures maximum comfort with its ventilated Airscape backpanel that keeps uncomfortable back sweat at bay. The spacermesh harness comes with a removable hip belt and adjustable sternum strap, allowing you to find your perfect fit. This backpack is also equipped with multiple pockets to keep your belongings organized during your outdoor adventures.
As an added bonus, the Osprey Skimmer 20L Backpack includes an Osprey Hydraulics LT 2.5L reservoir. The dedicated hydration compartment keeps your clothes and gear dry all day, while the wide-mouth, bucket-style top opening allows for easy access to your water. Plus, the magnetic bite valve attachment ensures convenient drinking on the go.
