Osprey Daylite Plus Commuter Backpack, Wave Blue

The Osprey Daylite Plus was my go-to backpack until I decided to go a little bigger with the Osprey Talon 22L. I used it for shorter day hikes. I overpacked it, carried too much weight with it, dropped it, stepped on it, napped on it, used it in extreme heat, extreme cold, rain, snow, sleet and overall pretty much abused it.The backpack in the pics has about 500 very rough miles on it and shows little sign of wear. I think it’s indestructible. It isn’t waterproof, although it does perform well in the rain, snow, etc…but consider getting a rain cover or use dry bags. It doesn’t have a real hip belt, just straps, but you probably won’t need one. I never used the hip straps on this pack, and I didn’t miss having them. It is comfortable to carry without them. The divided pockets in the front compartment are a nice touch.It is a smaller backpack, but can more than likely carry everything you want to carry on day hikes, especially if you pack lite. Worth the money and will seemingly last forever. I highly recommend the highly durable Daylite Plus.

I took this backpack with me on a 14-day trip to Japan, and it was absolutely perfect. Lightweight, super comfortable to wear all day, and surprisingly roomy for its size. I used it as my daypack for everything from city exploring to short hikes, and it held up like a champ.The organization pockets were really useful for keeping my passport, chargers, and snacks easy to access, and the back panel ventilation was a lifesaver in the humid weather. It fit under airplane seats easily, too.If you're looking for a reliable, well-designed backpack for travel or daily use, this one’s a winner. Would 100% take it on my next trip!

Ospreys are great packs - some say a bit heavy for their capacity, but I'll trade ounces for durability. I got this as a companion day pack for my Farpoint 80l. It attaches nicely to loops on the Farpoint.This is a basic "napsack" meaning no frame, no padded hip belt, and minimal padding, so you really don't want more than 15lbs in it. At that weight this is a comfortable pack. I love the sunburst orange I was able to find. Seems the color is discontinued and there was quite a discount on it.

I bought three (me and my 2 sons) of this and used it for our European travel. This BP is great! Very light and the backside has ventilation so that your back won't get wet with perspiration when carrying it. The chest and waist straps provides great stability especially if you want to carry the BP in the front (Rome/Italy pickpockets). Side pockets to carry water bottles. I'm really happy I chose this brad+model

I love Osprey packs and have several. This is definitely a "day pack" size. The color is pretty different from how it looks on the screen. Rather than a peacock blue it is more of a dark grey-blue, hence four instead of five stars. The front hinge pocket is small. Can hold a paper-back or e-reader. I was happy to see it did hold my MacBook Pro in the internal sleeve. The internal volume is fine for day activity. Osprey packs are VERY durable and this pack is light weight, perfect for travel.

Great backpack. I just used it for several hikes and it worked very well. I like that it didn't make my back sweat as it has good ventilation between the pack and your back. The construction is good and I'd buy another Osprey pack.

OK yall I'm old and have creaky joints and bones. I have had 2 surgeries on my shoulders and I've broken my back and sprained my neck. I love to hike but the thought of a backpack made me cringe because of the pain it caused. I did lots of research and decided to try Osprey brand. I am NOT disappointed one bit!! Finally a backpack that doesn't cause pain and stiffness in my shoulders and neck!!!! The weight transfers to your butt so I'm hoping with daily use I'll lose some of it and maybe even tone up the chub rub 😂😂. The design also sold me!! I love the forest design. Bonus for my 40 oz water bottle fitting in the sides. It also has a lot of room and different compartments.

I was looking for an extremely light backpack for flight travel. This was it!! Able to put essentials in, kept everything organized and traveled lightly. Great bag!!
