Osprey Sportlite 15L Lightweight Hiking Backpack for Men and Women, Alkaline/Hotspot Pink

Not only does this pack look great, it's well made, the stitching is great, and the zippers and clips are very durable. It has plenty of room for a long day hike or even a multi-day hike if you go ultralight. The side pockets are deep and they fit my 32 oz nalgenes with plenty of room for a snack or too for easy access. I love the chest and waist clip. It feels very secure, and the compression straps keep everything from sloshing around in the pack. I have taken this pack rucking before I go on a trip where I'll be doing several long day hikes. The pack completely pulls the weight of your load off your back and shoulders. Feels like it's not even there. Holds plenty. I fit a large first aid kit, rain gear, navigation, extra set of clothes, extra socks multitool, emergency blanket, Firestarter, two 32 oz nalgenes, a tarp/footprint, a digital camera, flashlight, phone, bear spray, rain cover, 2L hydration pack and snacks with no problem. Pros: -Nice looking, sleek design -Big side and front pockets -Strong zippers -Great distribution of weight -Plenty of straps to secure pack/clip things on -Spacious -Padded shoulder straps and back -Ventilated back panel Cons: - a bit expensive (but value is equal to the price) -wish there were more colors - would have liked a few more small pockets on the inside of the bag, as opposed to the one big compartment and a hydration sleeve. -it would be nice to have a hole for a hydration pack straw instead of pulling it through the zipper of the main compartment

This will be my "go-to" hiking bag. I don't do long backpacking hikes, just day-hikes anywhere from 2 to 5 miles. It is perfect to hold what I need for the day: fleece, rain poncho, water, snacks, binoculars. There are 2 most important things that made me choose this bag: 1. It's about the smallest quality bag I found that still does shift the weight to the hips because it has a hip belt. 2. I am 4'10" and with a shorter neck. This bag (compared even to another Osprey bag) does not knock me in the head--the top of it sits a little shorter on my back. I'm very happy.

This is a great pack for a pre-teen. Not too large and heavy to put excess burden on their growing bodies, but big enough so they can carry their water, lightweight jacket, and snacks. Our son is 5'3" and he has enjoyed his hikes with this. The vented back panel is fairly rigid and provides some airflow on hot and humid summer days (mid-Atlantic). There is plenty of room for adjustment so hopefully he can use this into his teenage years. The hiking loops are especially handy. While it doesn't have a padded hipbelt, it's not really necessary for 15L. I have seen other children at this age in adult packs, but they don't fit well (putting excess weight on the shoulders or hanging below the buttocks). This pack is a great compromise for those growing years. When adding a hydration pack you are looking at ~$120, which isn't the best value, but ergonomics are important. I purchased a HydraPak 2L bladder for ~$50 (they make Osprey's bladders I believe) to keep the overall cost down. It mates well with the pack's hydration clip to keep things from flopping around.

Love my new bag. Did a trip to Grand Canyon and Sedona Arizona. Multiple day hikes (and was comfortable all day. Held snacks, binoculars and a light jacket with no problem along with a 2L water bladder.(I recommend Source brand). Took my Stanley 24oz water bottle along in the side pocket. The extra straps secured it well

This pack is very nice. I have owned a number of smaller packs for small day trips and this is by far the best. Most have had poor support which makes sense, but this pack has a hard backing which makes it very sturdy and comfortable. The space is also ample and durrability seems good as it isn't the typical ultra thin ripstop that many lighter packs are made from.

This backpack is great for day hiking or walking into town for a fest. The craftsmanship and quality of materials is top notch. When you load it up correctly, the weight balance is distributed in a way that relieves pressure from the top of the shoulders. The chest strap has a built-in emergency whistle, but it's not extremely loud, which may not matter since this pack isn't designed for deep expeditions in super remote wilderness. That said, 20L sounds like a lot, but once you start packing clothes, first aid, food, water--you run out of space quick. It would have been nice to have more straps to hook things to. The camelback water reservoir accommodation works well, though for short hikes I prefer just a 48 oz nalgene bottle, which fits perfectly in the mesh side pouch. Overall great product, recommended for short trips anywhere.

We have only had this pack a short time but so far very impressed. The shoulder straps and back have ventilation systems which will be much better in heat. Holds a 2.5 liter hydro pack bladder. Due to small size the hose needs to be shortened to work comfortably. Note that this pack is small at 20 liters but can hold a rain suit and jacket with room for snacks and personal items.

Great backpack, well build Was it new ? look like new... Got someone travel diary in bonus 😶
