Bought this to use on a trip to carry a water bottle and a few items. Been using it a lot instead of a purse. Keeps my hands free and I don’t have to fight a shoulder strap. Stays put on my back. I’m a small petite woman and this is very comfortable to carry. Highly recommend.

I bought this because I thought it would be better than my bulging pockets. But it’s still a bit of a pain to take off every time to use my wallet. Not a fault of the bag at all—more just me thinking I would use it more.

Waited a LONG time for this sling to ship and when it did I had mixed emotions. I slimmed down my everyday bag and wanted something smaller to put my wallet, medication, keys and phone in.

Size: great for everyday/travel use. It pretty much stays flat unless you have alot of stuff in the sling. Pockets were great.

PRO: This sling can be worn over the left or right shoulder as it has mini carabiner type clips at the end of the straps and a ribbon type of material on both “bottoms” to attach. Quality is the standard Osprey five star.

CON: It can be worn front facing (which I prefer) however, the sling perfers to be a back facing and will slowly go there during the course of the day (which I don’t perfer.)

Sadly, had to return because this sling won the battle of being a back facing. Not taking anything from the Osprey brand.

Great pack. I bummed around Bali with this guy for a week and it never let me down. The ONLY thing I would suggest osprey add is one of those fancy rubber gasket-like points of entry to run a charging cable from the bag to an electronic device.

Other than that…it’s a great bag that does what it claims.

I travel a lot internationally and wanted something light for all the outdoor activities I do yet have enough space to carry my essentials including a full mirror lens camera and equipment. I was pleased to see I was able to fit all of it. It also helps reduce the weight which is great since when I travel I tend to visit a lot of spots that somehow are 400+ steps up a mountain. Love the flexibility of being able to switch the strap so I could give a break to one of my shoulders if needed from my heavy load. There are also plenty of places you can hook stuff to it, like a water bottle or anything else with a clip. I only wish that the smaller pocket had the same flexibility with being able to open the zipper from either side. I had to be careful I didn’t drop anything from it when I did switch the strap and the zipper would end up on the bottom side.

This is a small sling bag. I got it for my wife for a trip. Very handy way to take just enough for the day. Might get another one for me.

Osprey doesn’t make junk, only quality. Should last forever with light use. And it doesn’t look silly like a fanny pack over your shoulder does.

I brought this to Florida with me for a 6 day theme park visit. It worked perfectly. It’s a fantastic size; not to big and not to small. Plenty of smaller pockets inside. I am so happy with my purchase.

Der Rucksack ist sehr gut verarbeitet und passt vom Umfang wie eine mittlere Handtasche. Der Gurt ist gut gepolstert. Ich habe ihn mir wegen eines Schulterproblems gekauft, damit ich die kranke Schulter nicht belasten muss. Dafr ist er sehr gut geeignet. Auch sehr praktisch in der Handhabung. Klare Kaufempfehlung.

I am very pleased with this bag. I needed something that was smaller than a diaper bag, but bigger than a wristlet to carry my junk and my kid’s stuff. This bag can easily go from the grocery store to the playground to a weekend camping trip, especially if you live in a casual small town like I do. This bag is lightweight, has great organizational options already built in, and is comfortable to wear. I do wish the zipper was a little smoother to pull. I have photos of how I typically have it packed. As you can see, I still have room for when I need to add more stuff like snacks or toys.

I have a G4Free sling and I love it, but it’s too small to hold my 10.4″ tablet. Thus, I decided to try the Osprey. It’s a very high quality sling bag. It has plenty of space for my needs. The material is much thicker and tougher than the G4Free.

The G4Free on the other hand has an outside mesh pocket, which I miss on the Osprey. However, the front pocket works just fine for a small water bottle.

The Daylite is very high quality and appears that it will hold up for the long haul. It’s very comfy and has some padding on the inside. It’s very water resistant and you won’t have to worry about getting you gear wet in rain. I’d be cautious in a downpour, however.

This pack isn’t designed to carry a tablet, but for my needs when I occasionally carry my tablet it works great. It fits with the case on too. This essentially acts as my daily use and dad bag (kid supplies – snacks, hand wipes, etc.).

It’s a great little bag and I highly recommend it.

I have tried a couple of different slings, Patagonia 8L Atom and the Northface Berkley Field bag. These are both good quality slings but they did not work for me, only right side cross body wear, openings that where hard to get into, little to no organization and a bit uncomfortable.
I like the Osprey Daylite the best and will not be returning it. Here is why: 1. It is very lite weight. 2. It opens like a backpack, top center two zippers and it fully opens to about 3/4 of the length of the sling. The zippers are not covered with unnecessary folds and they have nice pulls that are easy to grip for an old guy like me. 3. Internal organization pocket with zippered internal compartment with key ring lanyard. 4. Internal slip pocket for a phone, I Phone or Samsung will easily fit. I also keep a Moleskine note book, 4″x7″ in there. 5. Because the sling opens like a backpack, I can also get most standard hardback books in the main compartment. 6. The front compartment fits two pairs of glasses, in the case, wallet, keys and hand sanitizer and a pen. 7. Shoulder strap attaches on the bottom of the sling for left or right cross body wear and there is a small stretch pocket at the top of the shoulder strap although I don’t use it, it is very small.
8. The inside of the sling is a lite color so things don’t disappear so to speak. So for the price and quality it works for me daily and for travel. Simple, smart design.

This sling pack fulfills most of my needs – it’s lightweight, comfortable, and has just enough space for the items I need for my 1-3 hour local walks / hikes. However – the reason it doesn’t get 5 stars – it still leaves me with a bit of a sweaty back (in hitter days, or more arduous hikes). Certainly less so than my 20L backpack, but I would like to see Osprey apply some better technology to this product to improve the breathability, and given the price point I did expect more on that front.

Spot on, bit smaller than I expected but can get a rain coat in there plus more, low profile, comfortable and great to carry extra layers in unpredictable weathe

This bag is really well made and perfect for taking your kit to the pool in a trendy “man-bag”

This little bag is perfect for carrying a few bits and pieces rather than having bulging pockets. I use sling bags because I have bad shoulders and I have trouble putting a normal back pack on and off so this is ideal. What I like most is that I don’t have to take it off to get things in or out, I just swivel it around to the front, do what I need to do then swivel it around to the back again, perfect! It has a nice wide padded strap so I hardly know I’ve got it on. I have a bigger bag for larger loads but this is ideal for daily use. I keep all my personal stuff in it and there is ample room for a fold up rain coat, my camera, a drink and all my bits and bobs and if I’m worried about someone taking something out then I can use it as a chest bag so I can keep an eye on it. The quality is exactly what I expect from Osprey, they are the best around.

This is a very useful ‘over the shoulder’ Pack. There is an adjustment so it can be worn over either shoulder. Although the advertising photos show the Pack worn over the back of the body, it can be swung around and worn at the front of the body for greater ease of access to the zipped areas – and wearing it this way means it does not have to be removed to put items in or take items out of the Pack. Also better from a security point of view as the zipped sections are over the chest / stomach area, and not ‘out of sight’ over the back / shoulder areas.
