Osprey Daylite Duffel Bag 45

I got this bag during the raining season because it was flooding really bad in our area and I wanted to have something to use for emergency evacuation. I love this bag. Its super sturdy, lots of space, lots of pockets. The straps are comfortable to wear as a backpack. I love the clip rings to clip carbines to. I also used this on an airplane family trip and the measurements are perfect as a carry-on. Its also pretty water resistant. I spilt my coffee on it by accident and nothing got wet. The only thing I dont like is the side pocket for water bottles. Its at a horrible downward-angle so if youre wearing the bag as a backpack your thermos is going to slide right out. I honestly dont know why they made it that way (or why to even have one). Very happy I got this.

This bag can hold a LOT of stuff. There aren’t a lot of compartments, but the build quality is there. I like that it can be used as a duffel or a backpack, too; makes it great for travel. Highly recommend if you need an everyday type of bag. The lack of additional compartments is my only quibble, and it’s a minor one at that.

The Osprey 45L Duffle offers nice versatility between a duffle and a backpack. The top of the duffle bag is slightly padded to provide some cushion to your back when using it as a backpack. All the extra pockets are on the outside of the bag, leaving the inside roomy and ready to you to pack in all your stuff. The zipper pull tabs are a good size to aid in easy access and the water bottle pocket is good for a medium size bottle. Anything bigger than about 24 oz would likely be too wide. The duffle straps have a comfortable padded feel and there is a sturdy handle at the top of a bag when used as a backpack giving you many ways to carry the bag.

I am an experienced traveler who used to travel internationally for work frequently. If there is a one bag product out there - including other designs by Osprey - Ive tried them, and likely hauled them to places as far away as India or Australia. The older I get, the more I value a lightweight bag without a lot of bells and whistles. Using that criteria, this bag exceeds expectations. If you are a true one bag advocate, this is likely not the bag for you. There is no place to put a laptop, and few pockets to store other items. Having said that, every airline Ive ever flown on has allowed a second personal bag. When I travel for work that means a messenger bag to hold my laptop and other work items, and when I travel for pleasure I carry a small, lightweight pack (usually the Osprey Ultralight Stuff pack) with my iPad and other personal items. So this should be a non-issue, unless you are traveling internationally through Heathrow and the security people are being unreasonable (which they usually are). For everyone else, this bag is near perfect. Its lightweight, seems durable, and isnt over-engineered. The Porter 30 is a lovely bag, but far too small for more than a couple days of travel (forget about packing a change of shoes...). The Farpoint 40 has great support, but at the expense of packing space (its really closer to 35l) and accessibility. This bag, the Daylite Duffel, manages to be international travel size but lets you use the full 45l of space, and getting to items in the bag couldnt be easier. With packing cubes I was able to overpack for a 10-day trip carrying only my Osprey Ultralight as an additional personal bag (disclaimer: I did a load of laundry halfway through the trip for socks/underwear). For a weeklong trip or less this bag has you covered nicely. The Daylite Duffel is suprisingly comfortable as a backpack. Not as sturdy as the Farpoint but certainly comfortable enough for getting through airports and to your hotel. The two side pockets are small, but functional. The smaller pocket held a pair of glasses and sunglasses on my latest trip, which was very useful. The only nit I would pick - and its something Ive read in other reviews - is that if the bag isnt fully packed it sort of folds into itself in the middle when you are using the duffle handles. This doesnt really affect... anything... but it feels a little awkward when you are carrying it. Highly recommend.

This fits withing most major airlines carry-on specs, so you can easily use it as your carryon. If traveling without kids, my husband I have found that its much easier to travel with big backpacks vs. wheeled luggage....you can get through the airport more easily without trying to wheel around people. I like that it has the option of backpack or carrying straps if you have another backpack you wanted to carry for your personal item. Easy to stuff with clothes for a week long trip if you roll them. Also has a good amount of exterior organizing pockets for your liquids ziplock, passports, etc. that you would need quick access to.

Its a great duffel bag with soft handles that doubles as a back pack.

Its a surprisingly versatile piece of kit and Ive got lots of brilliant uses for it. First, you can squash it down and pack it into a larger suitcase. That way, on your return journey, you have the space for any souvenirs, gifts, or other shopping that took place while on your trip. Its also great as a weekend bag if youre used to packing light. And it also works as an everyday gym and work bag too. At 45 Litres, this may not be your big main suitcase but its still substantial and would work as carry-on luggage. Like any good duffel bag, the Osprey Daylite Duffle has a really strong shoulder strap with a padded handle you can velcro into place. But then it also has a rucksack or backpack option and the interchange is really quick. Theres no fumbling around or getting straps out of hidden compartments. The backpack option makes life easier when you need to go hands-free, such as when youre holding your passport and boarding card getting ready to board the plane. One of the things I really love about all Osprey products - and Ive tested loads of them by now - is the quality. The handles are strong, theyre well attached, theyre wide and theyre padded. Your hands are going to be comfortable if you need to pick up the bag from the side and if anyones rough with your luggage during transit, the handles will still be attached by the time the journeys over. Overall, this bag is for weekend breaks around town and family trips on the plane. And for that, its perfect. Its lightweight, really well made and pleasant to use.

Okay, the colors not the greatest, but its built with care, and built like a tank. Plenty of room for a weekend away. It should last a couple decades and if it doesnt Osprey has the best warranty of any of the outdoor gear merchants.

Tamaño perfecto. Excelente color. Buen material. Me gusta que sea un producto libre de PFCs y hecha con materiales reciclados. Es necesario que todas las marcas sigan este camino.
