The Osprey Ultralight Stuff Tote is a highly portable solution for unexpected storage needs, weighing only about 3.2 oz while providing 18L of capacity. It is built from 40D high-tenacity nylon ripstop, a material chosen for its strength-to-weight ratio. This fabric is treated with a siliconized coating on the outside and a polyurethane backing on the inside to provide basic resistance against moisture.
Because this tote is designed for maximum packability, it does not have an internal frame or rigid panels. It is most effective for carrying soft items like clothing or light snacks. Users should be careful when carrying sharp-edged or heavy items, as the thin material is more sensitive to abrasion and can sag if the weight is distributed unevenly. The mesh straps are designed to be more breathable than standard webbing, which helps with comfort during quick trips.
To keep the bag in good condition, it is recommended to let it dry completely before folding it back into its own internal pocket, as storing it while damp can affect the internal coating over time. The "box-stitch" reinforcement at the handles adds a layer of durability at the main stress points, helping the tote handle its rated capacity.
If you require a larger, more structured packable bag for day-long outings, the G4Free 40L Packable Backpack offers significantly more space.
