Osprey

Osprey is one of the gold standards of BIFL backpacks. Their backpacks are built to last, made from high quality materials and can last you a lifetime if you take good care of them. Their warranty supports this, with the 'All Mighty Guarantee', which means they will repair or replace any defects to your backpack within its reasonable lifetime. There are some exceptions to what is covered in the warranty, but in general they nearly always fix your product. Their backpacks are designed in the UK, but manufactured in Vietnam.

They are driven to create high quality and durable products. Their philosophy is to use recycled materials where possible and keep waste to a minimum. Next to this, they also focus on repairing their products rather than replacing them. They also sponsor nature preservation projects to stop illegal hunting practices in Batumi, Georgia.
