The reason I'm an Osprey fan is because of the lifetime warranty for any reason, which impressively I've never had to use. And I abuse my gear outdoors.

But I'd imagine if you are doing tech carrying over everything else, you want something more specialized/padded. I try to find lighter gear.

When I have loads or large hardware I usually check in a pelicase or two. The backpack is mostly for short-term in-transit stuff plus bits and pieces I usually need for short stays.

Osprey looks nice - I'll see if they have something that suits my needs

Does the company that bought Osprey still honor the warranty?
