No matter how good a parent is at giving piggyback rides, it's hard to beat the comfort that comes from a specialized carrier like a baby backpack. With its line of child carriers called Poco, Osprey realizes that many travelers struggle to find gear that can accommodate their own gear, plus a child and the items needed by the child such as food, diapers and a spare set of clothes. In terms of storage space, the bag contains about 34 liters for cargo, plus an additional 3-liter bladder for carting around a fresh supply of water.
Part backpack and part child carrier, Poco was designed with parents in mind. From the removable drool pad to the stowable changing pad, the backpack is ideal for spending a day in the great outdoors with a young one.
