Osprey and Danner just dropped a limited-edition pack and shoe built for the same trip

The Farpoint | Fairview 40 and N45 Max Low share materials, colorway, and a clear purpose: adventure travel that goes from airport to trailhead without missing a beat

Two of the most respected names in outdoor gear have collaborated on something genuinely useful.

Osprey Packs and Danner have released a limited-edition pairing — the Osprey x Danner Farpoint | Fairview 40 pack ($250) and the Osprey x Danner N45 Max Low shoe ($220).

Between them the two brands bring 144 years of outdoor heritage to a collaboration that's less about brand storytelling and more about solving a real problem: most travel gear is either optimized for the city or the trail, rarely both.

The packs: Farpoint | Fairview 40

The Farpoint (men's) and Fairview (women's) 40 are already among Osprey's most trusted travel packs.

This collaboration version upgrades the materials and trims significantly, and adds one feature in particular worth calling out: a dedicated Boot Bin compartment for footwear storage.

That's not a token addition; it's a direct response to traveling with technical shoes that you don't want rattling around loose with your other kit.

The main body uses NanoFly fabric with UHMWPE ripstop, which is exceptionally durable for its weight.

The fit is gender-specific with torso-length adjustability, the hardware is elevated throughout, and the whole thing ships in an exclusive High Trail colorway with co-branded detailing. It's covered by Osprey's All Might Guarantee.

The shoe: N45 Max Low

The N45 Max Low is the travel-ready sibling to the N45 Mid GTX I reviewed earlier this year; if you want a sense of how the N45 platform performs on trail, that review is worth a read.

This collab version takes a low-cut silhouette and pairs it with a seriously capable spec list: an EnduroFoam MAX midsole using nitrogen-infused supercritical foam (TPEE), a Vibram MTN45 outsole with MegaGrip, and a lightweight TPU rock plate for underfoot protection.

Crucially, the upper uses the same NanoFly fabric as the pack, alongside a PU-coated leather rand; that shared material story is what makes the kit feel genuinely cohesive rather than just co-branded.

It comes in the matching High Trail colorway and offers both speed lace and standard lace options.

True to Danner's long-standing approach to longevity, the shoe is recraftable — meaning when the outsole eventually wears out, you can have it resoled rather than replaced. That's a meaningful commitment given the price point, and one of the things that consistently sets Danner apart from the competition.

Who it's for

This is a kit for the traveler who doesn't want to pack separate gear for different legs of the trip. The kind of person who flies into a city, spends a day there, then heads straight to a trailhead; and wants everything to look like it belongs together while being genuinely functional at every stop.

Osprey has form here: their collab with Houdini on the Allt backpack showed what happens when a serious carry brand partners with someone who shares the same values around materials and purpose.

The Danner collab is a different brief; more travel-focused, more wearable across contexts, but the same instinct is there which is to find a partner whose standards match yours and make something neither could make alone.
