Product Description
Since Osprey was founded in 1974, every single product design has passed through the hands of owner and founder Mike Pfotenhauer, who created his first backpack at age 16. In Santa Cruz, California, the young entrepreneur opened a retail shop in the front of his rental house where backpackers and travelers came for custom-fit, made-to-order packs constructed over several days by Mike himself. As the demand for the great-fitting packs increased, Osprey found itself relocating to its current home in Southwest Colorado. Today, Osprey is a melting pot of diverse personalities, backgrounds and abilities. All share the common belief that adventure is open to everyone and found anywhere.

This pack is a smaller backpack, enough to carry a light jacket plus some other knicknacks. Is not a full sized backpack. Perfect for a light hike or for exploring a foreign city. Flat pocket that sits along your back for carrying a hydration pouch or can double as a tablet or very thin notebook pocket. Smaller outer pouch with two flat pockets for additional small things. Shoulder straps are robust and comfortable. Chest and waist strap included. Chest strap buckle is also a whistle.
This is actually my second Osprey Daylite, my first purchased many years ago. This is an updated version with deeper and more functional outside mesh pockets for water bottles. The "handle" between the shoulder straps is also a little closer to the pack allowing the pack to sit up a little higher on the back if desired. My first pack is still holding up great, but I passed it on to my son - it's a good size for a kid to wear and carry stuff around in. Bought a second for my other son now that he's old enough to carry his own stuff around too. I upgraded to a Daylight Plus since I wouldn't mind a little more carry space (a fantastic option if you want something just a little more roomy than the Daylight). I wouldn't mind a couple more pockets/pouches, but that's a very minor gripe.
This is not a big backpack. At best, it's an overnighter even with the straps let out all the way. But - yeah, I'd buy it again. Very sturdy, seems to be exceedingly well made. We'll see how it lasts.
EDIT: After returning the used pack that was previously sent to me, the replacement showed up late last week. Hooray - it was new and in its original packaging! I'm updating the review from 2 to 4 stars. It does seem to be a very nice pack and will perfectly serve the purpose for which it was purchased. It's a gift for my wife and likely won't get any trail use until next spring, but it is a well-conceived design and made of lightweight but durable material. I'd give it 5 stars, but I can't quite get past the fact that I received a used one and had to return it, so 4 stars it is. I view this as an issue with the seller more so than the manufacturer, but Osprey does have a say in who sells their products, so perhaps they should be a bit more diligent in that respect.

We have been able to pack 4 x 1litre bottles of water (two in the bag, two in the outer bottle holders) a fleece, and a waterproof in the main section, and then there is still space for snacks, phone and wallet in the front. The design of the bag keeps it away from your back so you don't get all sweaty, and it feels really comfortable to carry. A great back pack.
