I certainly could recommend this as a simple, lightweight, day trip pack. This is the second summer we've used this pack, and have been quite pleased with its level of quality, and durability. This smaller pack can apparently be an "add-on", to attach to other Osprey packs.obviously increasing its versatility. The smaller pocket has an attached clip, and elasticized pockets. There is a designated tablet sleeve area, though I do not use this for electronics. There is a large main compartment, with a long zipper side to side, to it is easy to open the pack and find what you are looking for. The reflective trim is a nice feature, especially if we are skiing or hiking in low light, on a trail shared by snowmachines. It is comfortable over a summer trail shirt, or over a winter anorak. It is so light, and non-cumbersome, that I can wear it, while using a skijoring belt, without any discomfort, The size is just right, to throw in a basic FA kit, water, paw wax, ski wax, and of course dog treats for the trail. I mostly use the pack in the winter, when skijoring. The side pockets are large and deep, and there is a strap over the top at an angle which can help hold taller water bottles in place. There is no hook or loop to attach the top of the reservoir bag, but the hose can be placed under the accessory loop on the shoulder straps. I did put in a hydration reservoir from my Camelbak once, to see how it fit, which was fine, but I have only used water bottles with this pack. The back is ventilated, and there is a hydration reservoir.
The pack can comfortable be used by either my 6'5 husband, or by 5'7 me, and it is nice to have that flexibility. The shoulder straps have nice padding, and there are accessory loops on them, which I really utilize. The waist strap (which can be removed) is a plain narrow webbing strap, without padding, but serves quite adequately for this pack. The pack has nicely adjustable straps, including a sliding adjuster for the sternum strap. However, my husband loves the Osprey, so when we hike together, I split up the gear. of gear) cannot adequately contain all my regular gear for most day hikes or winter snowshoeing trips. I usually carry dog and human first aid supplies, extra water, survival gear, camera gear, and outerwear "just in case".the Osprey (793 cu in. The capacity is a bit small for me to use it as my standard day pack. It is very durable, comes in a variety of colors, and has nice features that project it a bit past other basic "sack" day packs I have had. (Nobody likes excessive lower back sweat.) The chest and waist straps (38-55 centimeters) keep the Daylite close to your body so it doesn’t smack into you back and forth when hiking – additionally they help make the Daylite a very comfortable backpack to jog with.This little day pack weighs barely a pound, yet has served us well as a second pack for day hikes. It weighs 450 grams (~1 lbs), has mesh shoulder straps, and a foam back to help keep your back cool. The Daylite is 22 x 22 x 45 centimeters, holding roughly 13 liters in two main compartments. Since I’ve been using the reliable Sojourn 60L as my primary check-in luggage for years, I decided to try the Osprey Daylite, hoping it too would be worth the sightly higher price tag. My primary carry-on backpack, the Swissgear Scansmart 1900 is very accommodating to all of the electronics I travel with but not very practical for lighter daily use or doubling as a sports bag. This is my review of the Osprey Daylite Daypack, after a year of torturing traveling with it to over 10 countries. Reviews of backpacks when they’re new can be useful but seeing how they hold up after an extended period of travel shows you if they’re really worth the their price. Most daypacks are usually very simple, lacking comfort and versatility falling apart soon after you’ve forgotten how cheap the price was.Īlthough I generally treat my electronics tenderly, the luggage I carry it around in takes a beating. The Osprey Daylite Daypack is a small backpack designed for hiking or short sightseeing excursions but built with features more common in larger bags.
