I use this for my day pack, long hikes and bike riding. To carry snacks and water for me and the dogs. Feels great to wear all day. Laptop sleeve is great to organize for quick items you might need like ammo, bike light/headlamp things like that. I'm about 6'2" and 265Lbs and the pack still fits me.

After using an Osprey hiking backpack for several years, I knew the brand would be my choice for a smaller backpack. The size is perfect, and it is a nice, light weight. As a 5'2" woman, I am happy to report that it adjusts perfectly to my frame. I often walk to play rehearsals and music lessons. I put my iPad in the padded pocket, and there is room for my script, water bottle and other accessories (like snacks!) The quality is great, and I feel that it will be reliable for quite some time!

Amazing bags! Just put close to 50 miles on it in a few days. Great bags for day hikes, and comfy.

Osprey is an amazing company. I am enjoying my new Daylight Plus. It is an improvement over my older one. The Daylight Plus is just the right size for my adventures.

Stuffed this pack with all my electronic gadgets for a week in Oaxaca as its first trip and it did not disappoint. Lots of small item storage locations. Was filled to the brim with clothes and camera equip. and water in a shuttle van and didnt get shredded to pieces. Very happy with it so far.

Solid backpack for short-to-medium hikes and for the office (if you can bear the hiker look). Main compartment is small but enough for my laptop and some books. The front compartment is a great for quick-access stuff like gloves, a beanie or a light jacket. The mesh on the water bottle side pockets feels nice and durable. It's also really comfortable and feels sturdy thanks to the hip belt. Only downside is that I wish I can tuck away the long, dangling straps. Still, it's a great buy and I'm happy I got it!

Doesn't have male buckles to clip into the female buckles on the Farpoint 36 straps. That was disappointing. Had to strap it onto the Farpoint with the external compression straps. Otherwise, nice little daypack.

This pack is perfect for when you are out and about for the day. I got this for my Japan trip and I found it to be a great size -- not too heavy, but could still fit in the daily essentials. I also use this bag when traveling sometimes since it fits under the seat with plenty of leg/foot room. There is a laptop compartment in the main compartment, a smaller compartment for pens, and a mini zip in the front that's good for wallets/passports/small things you need easy access for.

I'm a rather casual hiker/walker and was very intimidated by many of the hiking backpacks I saw online. Many were too big or had too many pockets and features. This backpack has the right amount of space, features for comfort, and number of accessible pockets for what I needed it for. For a few hours of hiking you can easily fit layers, lunch, first aid kit, water bottle, sunscreen, etc. This is really a great bag for a short day trip and I'm excited to use it for years to come!

I needed a daypack for a trip I was going on and grabbed one of the clearance colors. It's very comfortable, the back is wonderfully breathable, and it held a lot! Now my husband is borrowing it for a work backpack and also loves it.

The updates to this pack since I last purchased it (8 years ago) are incredible. Especially love the deeper and larger pocket on the front (the PLUS!). Osprey is the jam.

Awesome day pack. Perfect for two large water bottles on the outside, a medium sized laptop in the sleeve, and still room for a few more small things on the inside. I fit my 14" MacBook Pro (2023 model if you're looking for specifics) in the sleeve with room to spare. It has a surprising amount of room inside for how small it looks. I can also use it for day hiking or bike commuting. The bag feels well planted on my back and doesn't move around much.

Comfortable to carry, loved the look of it, and it looks small but is actually very spacious.

It's an attractive bag. I got all black so I could use it for work. It's a bit small, though. I like all the compartments and organization features, but it seems like a tight fit for my lunch, computer, books, and purse.

Very lightweight, fits everything for a day hike without being too bulky. The color is so bright and colorful. Overall very happy.

I am really happy with this backpack as it is lite, small, comfy and looks nice on the back. Besides its 20lt volume it can still fit almost everything that i need even for a short hiking trail and the jacket can always go along the outer adjustable "pocket". The major problem though is that after a year of almost everyday use the bottom part of the backpack that touches the back as well as the upper part of the straps that touch the chest have worn out so much that it started tearing apart the inside mesh layer. Also the back net that is supposed to help with sweating doesnt really work.
