The Daylite Plus shows off its outdoor roots while still looking more refined than typical hiking packs. Built from 300D recycled polyester, the fabric is light, naturally water-resistant, and durable enough for daily use.
Osprey has done a good job of modernizing the aesthetic, so it feels less like old-school gear and more like a streamlined daypack. The branding and finish keep it versatile for both outdoor trips and everyday carry.
The front pocket is simple but functional, offering quick access without added complexity. Behind it, the admin compartment adds two lining pockets, a key leash, and enough depth for everyday carry items.
This compartment can even handle bulkier gear, such as over-ear headphones, which makes it useful when traveling. It’s a convenient space for wallets, keys, or smaller electronics that you want organized but still within reach.
The kangaroo pouch on the front stretches enough to fit a hoodie, towel, or sandals. While it’s not highly weather-resistant or secure, it adds flexible capacity for items you need to grab quickly on the go.
