We’ve found Osprey’s own descriptions of the Daylite, Daylite Plus, and Daylite Travel to be a bit vague and jargony, so we’re happy to better explain their features. They can for example clip onto a range of Osprey’s hiking and trekking backpacks (reviewed here). If you think that may interest you, take a gander at our small (carry-on) rolling backpack recommendation and favorite large (checked bag) wheeled backpack.īut if you’ve already got a favorite Osprey wheeled piece or backpack, the Daylites are excellent add-ons as they attach to a broad variety of Osprey luggage (see the chart below). Note that we also recommend Osprey’s wheeled bags/backpack combos that come with their own excellent, quite similar detachable daypacks.

The Plus and Travel also tack on a few extra features that can make them more worthwhile for some, especially if you’re planning to carry tech gear like a laptop. From smallest to largest, they are: the Osprey Daylite, Osprey Daylite Plus, and Osprey Daylite Travel Pack.

The Daylite series from Osprey has three very similar daypacks. It can be slim, or expand out with the accordion zipper feature into a full-sized backpack, and it’s got a perfect array of pockets. My favorite and one I use is the largest of the three: The Osprey Daylite Travel daypack.

And we think it’s important to travel with a detached daypack they serve to keep key valuables close at hand while in transit as well as to accompany us on long city or countryside daytime outings. For years we’ve been travelling with and recommending a few key Osprey pieces.
