Why is Osprey operating the Osprey Selective Distribution Programme?

Osprey was born in California, 1974 at the seat of a single sewing machine, with a head full of ideas and a desire to design and build innovative backpacks to the highest quality. Over the years, Osprey has been built upon the fundamentals of hard work, listening to our consumers and, above all, innovation and quality. From the earliest years of its history until the current time, Osprey has taken great pride in its products, intellectual properties and brands.

Today, Osprey is an award-winning outdoor brand, and it continues that pioneering spirit, using its technical knowledge and design quality to create stylish, sustainable, premium packs for everyday use, from the wilderness to the urban outdoors. Osprey aims to provide the highest performing and longest lasting technical carry solutions on the market, and to do so in a sustainable way.

Every Osprey product is designed, produced and sold with these core values in mind. The Osprey Selective Distribution Programme is designed to ensure that every Authorised Reseller lives up to and safeguards the above values and principles when selling its Products.
