Fitting an Osprey backpack properly ensures comfort and efficiency during your activities. Start by adding some weight to simulate real-life usage and adjust the backpack's torso length for a snug fit against your back, eliminating any gaps. First, secure and adjust the hip belt over the upper pelvis for even weight distribution. Next, tighten the harness straps without restricting your breathing. Adjust the load lifters to about a 45-degree angle to keep the pack straight and close to your back. Finally, fasten the sternum strap to avoid pressure on sensitive areas.
