Why We Like The Daylite Plus 20L Backpack

One of the most versatile packs in Osprey's collection, we like the ingeniously designed Osprey Daylite Plus Backpack because it is a roomy daypack that attaches to larger Osprey packs on longer adventures. The relatively compact, easy-carrying size lends itself to everything from spirited hikes up towering peaks to sightseeing along tropical coastlines and jungle ruins.

I’ve used this bag all week in Portugal on holiday and it’s a great day bag, more than enough space with enough handy pockets

I received this particular Daylite

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this particular Daylite model as a replacement from an older (2017) model. The zipper on the older model seperated from the pack material. I came to understand Osprey's "Almighty Guarantee" and sent the older Dylite model in under their warranty policy. The old pack could not be repaired so Osprey sent this model free of charge as a replacement. I cannot say enough about a company standing behind their products. I will definately consider Osprey as a first choice for any pack needs in the future. Incidentally the older Daylite model had seen many miles of travel and wear and tear before the zipper finally gave out. The new model has improved as the compartments seem larger and , more specifically, the side pockets seem to handle a taller water bottle more adequately.

This backpack is so comfortable. I absolutely love it. It’s compact and still fits everything I need for the workday or an overnight trip.

I wanted a robust school

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted a robust school backpack for my 6 and 10 year olds, that can also work as a hiking backpack in the summers. The size is perfect on these for school binders, laptops, and all the supplies without being too bulky. I love that we can slide their shoes in the front pockets for PE to keep the inside from getting stinky. Its not too bulky, or too small. . . its just right for both of them. I hope they will last for many years

Great rucksack for touring as loads of pockets. Reasonably comfortable for a day hike & takes my hydration pack. In all, I’m really pleased with it.

Ok day bag

The bag is a little hard and uncomfortable on the strap area on shoulders. I’ve used it daily for 2 weeks and I’m not convinced I can keep it. It’s also started to stain (water marks) on the fabric.

Stylish and comfortable

Wanted a roomy comfortable day bag for city breaks. This fits the bill. Easily holds a laptop or iPad for travelling and two large water bottle pockets. Spare raincoat, snacks and another layer all fit easily inside. It’s perfect
