Osprey's 2024/2025 refresh is GARBAGE
Osprey refreshed the Daylite Sling in late 2024/2025 and the changes are absolute garbage. I have an older purple one (just purchase it early 2024) and it's absolutely fantastic. The changes made are absolutely corner cutting and this went from a terrific sling to an immediate return. In the attached images, the purple is last years model and the black one was just purchased Nov 2025. - The shoulder sling has gone from thick padding that covers the edges to practically no padding whatsoever. The edges are now hard and become uncomfortable compared to the original ones. - Where the sling attaches to the base of the bag, it used to be a decent carabiner with a swivel so it wouldn't get tangled up. Now it's literally a piece of plastic sewn in acting like a tab to not get pulled out. - The strap on the sling itself has shrunk in side, even more of a cost cutting effort. This new Daylite Sling is not worthy of the Osprey name, not even close... or perhaps Osprey is just becoming a cheap company.
Mother-Approved
I LOVE THIS PACK!! As a mom of two little kids(potty training & diapers) this has been awesome! I am able to carry a full-size wallet, 2 diapers, small pack of wipes, extra clothes for my oldest, sunglasses case, and some snacks all in one small pack. I sorta feel like Mary Poppins with this! At first I was afraid that it would be too small for all the stuff I carry but I was wrong. If you're looking to ditch the bulky diaper bag this is a great one to buy.
A nice little bag for day-to-day.
This pack is the perfect size to keep my day-to-day things like keys, headphones, snacks, etc. The loops on the front are great for carabiners or clipping gloves to. It's comfortable, and there's a tiny access pocket on the front strap that I put Chapstick in. Even on bike rides and hikes it doesn't wiggle around. Literally the only things I'd change are adding an optional waist strap, and making the clips metal instead of plastic. Overall, I recommend this bag.
Easy to use , easy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use , easy access and easy to use zip pockets, a really safe and sturdy pack
Perfect for active moms.
High quality and comfortable. Surprisingly large amount of storage for such a small bag. I’m a mom and this bag is perfect for busy daily life with a young child. Stays out of my way. Super accessible. I forget I’m wearing it most of the time. My other bags were always in my way and needing adjustments. I can fit all my essentials in this plus a change of clothes for the kiddo. There’s little loops I can hang a water bottle from too. I absolutely love it!
Perfect
Perfect for traveling I love that I can switch sides.. it holds everything I need
great bag
My husband loved it so much that he took it from me. Now, he bikes and carries all his essentials for swim.
Nice looking small sling
In all reality, I’m still deciding if I’m going to keep this or revert to some sort of bag on a bike rack. I wanted something light and easy to carry items (cash, ID, credit card and some repair tools) that I could easily carry and not leave on the bike or have to carry some awkward bike bag. I was considering putting both locks in the Osprey but the weight would easily reach 10lbs, which might be too much to be comfortable while riding. I need to test it out to determine suitability. That being said, it is the right size and has a decent set of pockets and slots to put things while riding. I may just keep it.
This is the one.
I've tried at least five slings, this is the one. Big enough to carry enough stuff without being big enough to allow you to make it too heavy, ambidextrous, functional, and super cute.
get it!
A great bag! Light but fits phone, wallet, kindle, small water bottle, and more!! Holding up very well.
