OspreyDaylite Shoulder Sling Bag – Compact Crossbody Sling Backpack for Everyday Carry, Festivals, and Travel – Lightweight, Comfortable Fit for Hands-Free Convenience, BlackBluesignBluesignBluesign

The Osprey sling pack is a well made, right-sized Sling Pack that is comfortable to wear (rear padding durable yet adequate, and strap wide and thick enough to be strong yet comfortable) and that looks good. Adequate volume for most typical travel items in main pocket, and an adequately sized front pocket for quick access to documents (like passport, tickets, and so on) and wallet. There's even a pocket on the strap useful for a snack bar or electrolyte tablets. Zippers work smoothly, although they aren't waterproof, but likely neither is the pack. Don't overlook the loops around the periphery. One can attach shock-cord loops with cord locks to tether items like rain gear, or use the plastic fastener clips on water bottle pockets to attach the pocket and carry a suitable water bottle on the outside of the sling pack. All-in-all, the Osprey sling pack is attractive and functional.

Just completed a 2-week whirlwind tour of Thailand. This little bag is the perfect size for my 220lb, 6ft frame. Could easily and securely carry the necessary credentials anywhere I went, along with a bottle or two of water.Access to and functionality of the pockets is intuitive, especially important when I was navigating the bustling roads on my rental scooter. Quality, fit and finish were excellent, and kept my important documents dry through a few brief rain showers.Maybe a bit less important, but it matched my 35L Osprey carry-on backpack and complimented it well while on the multiple legs of the international flights. Small bags like this are very popular in Thailand for tourists and locals alike, but it was nice having something a bit unique.

I have been a fan of Osprey gear for several years. My wife and I each have Osprey daypacks, and I use an Osprey lumbar pack on shorter jaunts. The build quality is fantastic, the design is thoughtful, and they offer items that fit the size and application I am looking for.This Daylite Sling fits the bill almost perfectly. I wanted a lightweight and comfortable sling bag which offers ample room for the stuff I like to carry with me through the day. (I wanted to move much of my EDC gear from my pockets to a sling, particularly for summer weather and travel.) This bag has two main compartments, along with a smaller mesh compartment and divider inside the main section. There is a small zippered storage compartment on the strap which, honestly, doesn't do much for me...but I am sure others might find it useful.My one wish is that the internal divider in the main compartment included some small pockets for pens, pencils, etc. The sling I was replacing had that feature, and it was really nice for organization. I fixed the situation by ordering a Maxpedition 4x6 Platy to stow small items. Drop the Platy inside the main sling bag compartment and I'm good to go!I bought the sling on a Prime Day special, so that definitely sweetened the value for the money.I definitely recommend the Daylite Sling.

Awesome sling. Minimal design with only two pockets, very well made and extremely comfortable. Perfect for a hike lasting few hrs to jaunts in the city while touring. Used it every day during our two week vacation in Korea and Japan.

I bought this bag to use after I injured my shoulder and couldn't use my backpack. The bag is nicely made as are all Osprey bags. Here is what I can get in it comfortably:cell phone IPhone 5sunglasseswallet 4" x 5"bandanamedical kit 5" x 5"woman's kit 4" x 6"keyslib balm tingranola bar and bag of peanutsI realized that the best way to use this bag is to use the two pockets internally to secure my stuff. Otherwise, it's just a jumble of nonsense that isn't organized. My glasses case is the only thing that is loose. My wallet and cell phone are in the exterior pocket.I gave the bag 4 stars because honestly, who doesn't carry their water and need to put it somewhere? There is no water bottle pocket. You could maybe rig up some straps to the outside with the little loops provided but then getting in that exterior pocket would be tough. It's just likely a design flaw of these sling bags. Once it is on your back the bottle may fall out of the pocket anyway. I can't see taking this on a day hike either as some reviewers noted. You would starve and die of thirst! It's fine for going to the store, running errands etc. and I am not sorry that I bought it but still. The water bottle pocket!
