Osprey Daylite Duffel Backpack - Convertible Everyday Duffel Bag for Gym, Commute, and Travel

Good balance of backpack&duffel. Suitable for air travel.60L is a good size, big enough to hold multiple days clothes, but not so large that it's hard to wear or maneuver while wearing. For my height ("average" American male), I would not go smaller than 50L or larger than 70L. It's small enough to pack into a larger suitcase if you're not sure how much capacity you'll need on the way back.Very well made, no dangling bits, heavy material, and multiple handles. The straps are not the most padded and there's no sternum or waist strap (it's not an actual backpack) but perfectly adequate to wear as a backpack for making connections & transits. Mine went through multiple international airports as checked baggage and shows no sign of wear.Other Thoughts: Make sure you load it correctly if you plan to wear it-- extra weight on what suddenly becomes the "top" is very awkward. The airlines I used put the duffel in a luggage bin both for checking and for baggage claim. The small side pockets (curiously only on 2 sides, instead of 3) are handy.Quibbles: shoulder straps should be a little more padded. A loop to allow hanging this off a large suitcase would be helpful for air travelers.Overall, the best of 3 similar bags I looked at. And I've been very happy with the longevity of my other Osprey backpacks. Recommended.

Great smaller duffle. Collapses and folds up quite nicely. As with most osprey bags, this is top quality and very durable.This is the perfect bag to fold up and stash in another bag just in case your bags are too heavy at the airport and you need to shift things around, or pickup more stuff on the return trip.

I got this bag during the raining season because it was flooding really bad in our area and I wanted to have something to use for emergency evacuation. I love this bag. It's super sturdy, lots of space, lots of pockets. The straps are comfortable to wear as a backpack. I love the clip rings to clip carbines to. I also used this on an airplane family trip and the measurements are perfect as a carry-on. It's also pretty water resistant. I spilt my coffee on it by accident and nothing got wet. The only thing I don't like is the side pocket for water bottles. It's at a horrible downward-angle so if you're wearing the bag as a backpack your thermos is going to slide right out. I honestly don't know why they made it that way (or why to even have one). Very happy I got this.

Great bag! Wish there were interior pockets/some kind of organizers (just the shell) so rely on my packing cubes more now. Seems durable and good quality. Was able to pack for a 2 week trip with this — it holds a lot while also only being 2 lb (Helpful for the few internat. airlines that are starting to weigh carry ons). Def recommend, but would also love to have better colors - got the black because the teal was discontinued.

A really nice bag. Roomy. Nice sized pocket in the front and a small side pocket. light weight. Good for an overnight bag or for the gym. My only complaint: The top zip closure (the main compartment opening closure) has a seam right in the middle. (you can see it in the product photos) The seam causes the bag to want to fold in on itself right in the middle; in particular if it is not very full. When it folds it bulges out at the sides. I suppose the seam makes it easier to fold up and pack it away or into another bag but I see it as a downfall. Otherwise I really like it. Looks good too. My 2nd piece of Osprey gear.

Lightweight, collapsible, stow-able, overhead-bin-able, comfortable as a backpack, or as a regular duffel. Has a stretchy exterior compartment that's big enough for a regular Nalgene style bottle. Nice grip handles at both ends, and a couple pockets (one long front pocket, and one end short end pocket) for various documents, or maybe a phone or ipad.Construction seems good, zippers work well.It's very much suited for purpose as a carry-on bag, and it meets the specifications exactly.

Great overnight or weekend bag. Great size, durable, comfortable to carry

I travel by air weekly, spending 80-100% of my time on the road. My job requires I have safety equipment (boots/hardhat) with me at all times as well which is a pain to travel with.With this 30-L duffle I can pack everything I need for a week of work and still fit the bag into the smallest overhead bins. Makes traveling like I do much simpler and I don’t have to wait for a checked bag.After 4 months of weekly use it’s showing no signs of visible wear and all zippers are holding up well.This is a no fluff duffle, pair it with some packing cubes and hit the road. It will definitely be able to keep up with you.
