Sportlite 20L Unisex Hiking Backpack

I've been liking my Osprey Sportlite 25 so far. The water bottle holders fit my 40ish ounce water bottle without it falling out, and the compression straps help a lot too. Seems to have most of what you're looking for as well

The real deal-breaker between these two isn't actually the weight—it is the torso length and "barreling." The Osprey Sportlite 25 is a fixed-length pack, so if your torso doesn't perfectly match their template, the weight will sit entirely on your shoulders by mile six. The Deuter Speed Lite Pro 25

It’s fine for day hikes. I used it in Acadia. The laptop compartment can be used for a water bladder and then just mostly zipped up and run down the shoulder on the zipper side with the hose keeper strap. It’s not as comfortable as my Osprey Sportlite 25L, but it’s a perfectly fine bag to carry the

My suggestion is the Osprey Sportlite 25L. Technically it’s too tall to be a personal item, but it definitely fits in any carry on sizer. It’s ultralight (weighs less than .5 kg), has load lifters and a weight transferring hip belt. I like the organization of the pockets, and I find that it fits jus

I recently picked up the Osprey Sportlite 25 and it’s been pretty good.

Plus Ospreys warranties are some of the best in backpacking. Cou

I’m more of a Pilsetter. Walking through cities is a great joy of mine & sitting in a cab or bus or subway when I could be wandering the streets is a waste of valuable travel time, to me. Upon arrival in NYC on my last trip, I walked from Penn Station to the hotel, about 4km. On the last day, my pla

I’ve really enjoyed my osprey sportlite 25. It’s about $130, so not the cheapest option but it’s sturdy and will basically last forever. I like that the hip belts have pockets and there’s a pocket on the outside for easy access to my rain jacket or snacks without having to unzip or dig through the p

Not sure exactly what you are after, I have an Osprey Sportlite 25 that is a bit of a Goldilocks bag for me. Approx. dimensions depending on how packed in cm- 50 x 30 x 24 - 750 grams. It could be too big for what you are looking for, but has no frame and folds and moulds to fit most spaces. It's ve

Skip the Sportlite for your use case. The Cirto's suspended mesh back panel does better with heavy water loads, and the 3L eberlestock bladders are thicker than most -- the Sportlite's foam panel sits pretty flush against your back, gets clammy on longer day hikes. Osprey's warranty is solid tho, so

I got the Osprey Sportlite 25 and love it. Lots of room, pole holders, bladder pouch, and pockets, but not so many that it's overwhelming.
