Daylite Expandable 26+6 Travel Pack

So this seems a tad extreme, especially for a cruise. Kudos if this works for you. A daypack or Osprey 26+6 might have afforded you a more comfortable journey.

The “bag review” nerds love sh*tting on Osprey when they can. I watched a review on the Daylite 26+6 today and they said to “try these substitutes.” They were 2-3.5x the price! I actually needed a smaller bag than my Farpoint 40 and went with the Daylite 26+6 in black. There’s probably a great $250

I have the Osprey 26+6, 5’2” senior. I added a hip belt and it works good on this pack. I’ve walked 5+ miles with it including a computer in it. I had a cobbler sew 1” (or maybe it was 1.5”) webbing loops and then bought a detachable hip belt. Webbing from Amazon and hip belt from Black Ember DEX hi

Great breakdown, thank you! As someone who is 5’3” I have the Allpa 35 and it’s the biggest bag I can reasonably carry but can certainly get heavy when fully loaded. For longer trips or things where I need a ton of totally separate clothes I usually end up with the Osprey 26+6 for my personal item a

Just chiming in to support your jeans! I know that a lot of travelers cite their bulk/heaviness/slow-drying — but I adore jeans and wear them every day, so I brought them on a 15-day trip to the UK at the beginning of summer. It was great! I already knew they fit great and breathed great, and I wore

A couple of thoughts: a 23 l bag is down at the extreme end of one-bagging so you’re making this harder on yourself than it needs to be; a 30-35 l bag would make this easier or even a Osprey 26+6 fabric type matters a lot - cotton is heavy & bulky to pack, and dries slowly; synthetic fabrics made fo

I’m another two-bagger. I just can’t carry a giant pack on my back. I use a cane and can manage an Osprey 26+6 if it’s not super stuffed. But I usually take a 21 inch two-wheeledTravelpro and a Foldie tote. Sometimes I’ll swap the Foldie for the Osprey. It’s just easier with two smaller bags rather

I own both Ospreys but the Osprey as Daylite 26+6. The fairpoint/ Fairview is a great backpack for real backpacking imo. I did 3 months Southeast Asia with it and loved it. Super sturdy and comfy. Nothing rly breaks this beast even when overpacked. Love the hop strap to lighten the load on my should

In Dec, I, my wife, 12 yo and 5 yo stayed 2 weeks at Tokyo. I used an Osprey Daylight 26+6. It is 26L and can expand by another 6L. I used a backpack because it is more comfortable. I didn’t use a coin locker because we were just moving and not necessarily going back to the same station. My backpack

I've had the cobbler sew the loops on all my bags. I bought the webbing from Amazon and love the Dex hip belt from Black Ember. I'm short with 16.5" torso. The longer the bag the better it distributed the weight. Eagle Creek tour travel pack (older model) - it worked very well; Osprey 26+6 - good; O
