From humble beginnings building custom backpacks and sleeping bags in Santa Cruz California, to their current recognition as an industry leader in innovative design and benchmark quality, the flight for Osprey Packs, Inc. has been long, eventful and filled with change.

Today Osprey is eighteen dedicated outdoor enthusiasts based in Cortez, Colorado, an area between the rugged 14,000-foot San Juan Mountains and the breathtaking canyons of the desert Southwest. Across the planet, the office in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam is led by Osprey owner and head designer, Mike Pfotenhauer. Product design and quality control is handled at the source ensuring fair labor practices and continued cutting edge product evolution.

One thing hasn't changed though - when you buy an Osprey pack you are purchasing the vision and creativity of Mike P. That means that through 30 plus years an Osprey remains an Osprey. Enjoy and happy adventuring!
