In need of a new backpack for your next hiking adventure? Look no further. We’ve teamed up with Osprey to offer you the chance to win one of their newly updated Kestrel (men’s version) or Kyte (women’s version) LT backpacks.
‘LT’ here stands for lightweight, a new offering from US brand Osprey for 2026. The backpacks feature the same dependable performance as the original Kestrel/ Kyte series, but with a more streamlined, lightweight design.

Specifically, the materials that are used in the LT backpacks are lighter, the internal frame is more streamlined, and features such as external strapping and gear lashing points have been stripped back for faster and lighter adventures.
Both versions still have Osprey’s iconic AirScape back panel, torso-length adjustability, built-in raincovers, side-zip access, and impressive internal organisation. What’s different now is that you have two great options instead of one to choose from, depending on what your hiking trip looks like.

According to Osprey, the standard Kestrel/ Kyte packs are built for maximum durability and hauling heavier loads, while the LT packs are engineered for efficient day hikes, fastpacking, or overnight trips where saving weight is the primary goal.
