Does this bag even exist??

There’s a reason why diligent bag researchers so frequently choose the Osprey 26+6. It’s really an awesome lightweight bag, especially if you travel with an ipad, or mini ipad and don’t need a computer. The computer sleeve is also convenient for travel documents or thin magazines like The New Yorker

mom bag?!

My son is 3. I have come to really like travel/hiking bags for their light weight and compressible size. I use a Cotopaxi 16L for my day trip bag, we don’t carry a bag normally, and I will probably be buying another Osprey 26+6 as a diaper bag for travel (baby #2 on the way). I use one currently as

Personal item for a short girl?

Seconding the Osprey 26+6. Comfortable straps, lightweight, clamshell, just enough pockets and compartments. I'm just under 5.

Backpacking with only Carry on

Yep. I have the Osprey 26+6 as my main bag. (I was given a few others over the years) I leave it unexpanded. The bag itself is delightfully light

What’s the best travel backpack you’ve actually used and loved?

Osprey 26+6. Most of my travel is a for a few days or weekend trips and it’s light weight and packs great. I also rarely travel with my laptop so the simple sleeve is perfect for my iPad.

Guilty pleasure or luxury item?

For me, personally it is so worth the weight and space. But, it does take up the space where I could put an extra pair of sneakers or other shoes. That’s a trade-off I have to be willing to make. I am very careful on my shoe/clothing choices in order to fit the pillow. I also don’t typically fly on

Is the TP4 28L or CPP2 better as a personal item bag on US budget airline? Which is a better replacement for the osprey daylite 26+6?

I have the osprey 26+6 and cpp2. I enjoyed the cpp2 much better for travel in my recent trip. Way more comfortable bag. But the osprey is light and holds more. But I just overpacked it because of the extra space and didn’t need the space I was using. A few times I did wish the cpp2 was a bit bigger

The 26+6 Problem: Too Much Bag for Too Little Weight

While it doesn't work for my needs as it's slightly larger and heavier than the Osprey Daylite 26+6, it's a good-looking bag and a good value at under $100.

Air Canada person item limits: 16 x 33 x 43 cm (6 x 13 x 17 inches). That’s a fail on 3/3 dimensions and it’s as heavy as a Farpoint 40. Thr issue is

If you rock a backpack, much does it usually weigh?

I used to backcountry backpack with a Gregory 66! My Osprey 26+6 is a 5kg breeze!
