Osprey Daylite Plus Commuter Backpack - Lightweight, Everyday Pack with Laptop Sleeve and Water Bottle Pockets - Ideal for Campus, Work, and Travel with Versatile Storage, Soundwave Grey/Latte Brown

I really like this backpack. It’s well made and well thought out. It’s light and opens up to fit quite a few items. It has an extra strap on the waist to alleviate your back so you’re not having everything on your shoulders. It has two side stretch pockets one each side to put a water bottle or something else. It has a front pocket that opens up for small quick to get to items. It can expand to accommodate more products or you can compact it with less items. All in all that’s a great backpack for a short trip, for hiking or for travel. I purchased the rust color. I like it. I would definitely not lose it. The zippers quality is great. It has a little plastic pull to make it easy to open and close.

Good lightweight secondary backpack, especially if you want something smaller than a full everyday carry bag I bought the Osprey Daylite Plus as a smaller secondary backpack for days when I do not want to carry my full everyday carry bag. For reference, I am about 5'10" and around 210 lb, and I included photos so buyers can get a better idea of how the bag looks when worn. My main use case for this bag is light laptop carry, bike commuting, gym/library trips, errands, and travel daypack use. I mainly wanted something between a full-size backpack and a packable string bag. After receiving it, the color looked better than I expected. I was worried it would look too grey or dated, but in person it looks cleaner and more usable than I thought. The size makes sense for what this bag is. It is not a huge backpack, but it looks roomy enough for a 14-inch laptop, keys, a water bottle, a light jacket, and a few extras. That is exactly the type of load I wanted this bag for. I would not treat it like a heavy-load everyday carry backpack, but for lighter days it seems much more convenient than bringing a larger bag. The back panel is comfortable for light carry. It is not a heavy-load backpack, but that is also the point. The Daylite Plus works best when it is kept light and used as a compact daypack instead of being packed like a full 30L everyday carry bag. The back panel feels more structured and breathable than a basic school backpack, but it is still a lightweight daypack first. One thing I like is that it feels more portable and easier to grab than a larger framed backpack. Larger backpacks can be more comfortable under heavy loads, but they are not always convenient when you just need a laptop, water bottle, jacket, and small accessories. The Daylite Plus feels better suited for those lighter situations. Overall, I think the Daylite Plus is a practical secondary backpack. It makes the most sense if you want a smaller bag for light laptop carry, errands, short trips, gym/library use, or travel. It is not the bag I would choose for a full heavy school or work loadout, but that is not really what it is trying to be. For a 20L daypack, it fills the role well.

​I love this backpack, I was tired of my big backpack taking up all the limited floor space on planes. This is perfect in that regard. It has enough space to carry a reasonable amount of travel necessities, work papers or a magazine or two and an iPad or a small laptop. Very well made, solid lifetime guarantee.​ I paired it with an FYY Electronic Organizer​-Travel Cable Organizer​-Electronic Accessories Carry Case​ and it is perfect for my travel needs.

Excellent, well designed backpack. It's sturdy and fits my 5'1" tall wife. Osprey backpacks have good zippers and useful packets. Not a huge carrying capacity, too small for multiday trips on its own, but good for light use.

Very nice backpack! It is very high quality and useful. It is the perfect size and very lightweight. The compartments are well sized and organized. I like the chest strap and the shove it pocket for when in a rush. The only reason I give it four stars is because it is very expensive. I was able to get it on a good sale, but probably wouldn’t pay full price for it. If you truly need a backpack, this is a great pick, and the quality does match the premium price, I just personally would not spend full price.

This is a great lightweight, high-quality day pack. I used it while attending class, and it was perfect for carrying the essentials. The hydration sleeve also worked well to protect my small laptop. The main compartment has enough room for a large binder, but not much beyond that, so don’t expect it to replace a full-size backpack. The two smaller pockets are handy for accessories, and the zippers feel durable and well made. Overall, it’s an excellent day pack.

I have not used the backpack, these are my impressions. I've been shopping around for a day pack and have looked at several. I kind of love the Daylight Plus. The green is beautiful, it's like a forest green. The features I specifically noted when comparing to similar items: Quality - excellent. Sturdy and attractive zippers, fabric, stitching. Three compartments, 4 if you count the stuff pouch - Main large section, the cushion to protect and hold the reservoir can double as a laptop/device area when you're traveling. The center pouch has some little organizing pockets, which I find useful to keep small things from falling to the bottom of the bag. The whole space isn't very big, but to be expected for a daypack. The stuff pouch has support on the sides and won't fall open. The clips are good and also allow you to tighten the pack if it's not very full. The small zip pouch at the front is such good use of space, I wish other backpacks did this. Side pockets - one on each side. Large and feel secure because the pocket design has them attached close to the front. Useful when you are not using a water reservoir. Support - Hip and chest straps are a must for me. The hip straps are appropriate for this size, no pockets, etc. Shoulder straps feel cushioned. The airscape back provides structure and support while maintaining a compact design. I imagine this design feels supportive when hiking. I think it's too small for what I need....but I might keep it anyway. I'll update after I've had it for a while.

Holy cow is this ever a good backpack. I've had a lot of backpacks. This is the perfect day pack. It's kind of like the TARDIS in that it's much bigger on the inside than the outside. It's brilliantly designed to expand if needed, and unbelievably comfortable to wear. I don't know why but this backpack feels like I'm not wearing it at all even when it's loaded. Completely different than other backpacks. Genius engineering going on here. I'm a fan for life. It's worth a little more to buy the Osprey.

Super praktisch, gut verarbeitet, trägt sich gut!

機内持ち込みでパスポートに財布やスマホなど入れるのに機能的に出来ている。サイズもデイライトやファーポイントシリーズに付属のバッグの13Lのように小さすぎず、適度に荷物が収められます。ファーポイントシリーズにジョイント出来るという説明はあるがどのようにすれば良いかが全く書かれていないので試しようがない

Very happy with it. Versatile and well made

Super Tagesrucksack mit mehreren Fächern. Ist trotz 20l doch sehr geräumig. In unserer Familie haben jetzt alle den Daylite plus in verschiedenen Farben.
