From Altrec Outdoors:
"From the front it looks like a simple daypack, but turn it around, examine the suspension and this backpack is built for comfort and performance. The Osprey Stratos 18 daypack features the sophisticated AirCore suspension system, designed to carry the load comfortably. Air circulation to the back is excellent, especially noticable when the conditions get a bit too warm. A sewn-in contoured spacer mesh shoulder harness and padded hipbelt also contribute to the stable, comfortable carry. The Osprey Stratos 18 backpack also features large panel-loading access for easy packing and reorganizing and multiple options for carrying hydration vessels, including an internal hydration sleeve with dual exit ports and two stretch woven side pockets, perfect for water bottles. Just right for day hikes and mountain biking, the Osprey Stratos 18 backpack is built to last thanks to Osprey's meticulous attention to detail and choice of advanced materials. This pack is also available in the slightly larger Osprey Stratos 24 and a slightly smaller Osprey Stratos 12."

"When going simple and light, the Stratos 18 from Osprey is an ideal daypack for ridge runs, bouldering and mountain bike rides.

Front stretch pocket is ideal for stashing jacket, books and other often-used essentials. Front pocket with a water-resistant zipper, stretch-woven side pockets and zippered mesh pockets on hipbelt all help you organize your gear. Sewn-in hipbelt and harness--both Spacer Mesh--are contoured and anatomically shaped to provide extra control and comfort. Spacer Mesh promotes airflow and moisture management. Hydration-compatible design features hydration tube portholes and uses cavity behind mesh backpanel to hold reservoir, sold separately. Top grab handle and twin ice axe loops round out the features."

I'd appreciate if there were one or two more smaller compartments inside the bag. Bought it on a very good bargain.
Overall, it's a fine one."
