Why We Love This Deal
During REI's Labor Day Sale last month, a ton of travel gear from brands like The North Face, Patagonia, and even Arc'teryx was offered up with major markdowns. But one brand shoppers flocked to was Osprey—many of the brand's travel backpacks had sunk in price. While most products that were on sale are now back up to full price, there's one Osprey backpack from the Arcane collection that's still on sale across all of its colors.
The Osprey Arcane Large Day Bag is on sale for $68, a 38% discount from its normal price of $110. The bag is available in a range of colors, some of which are lower in stock than others, so if you want one, make sure to grab your preferred color soon.
