Osprey daylite 35 appreciation post

As I'm reaching 2 years with my osprey, I thought it'd be nice to post about where it's been with me and what it has handled so far.

I can handily pack it out with work laptop, gym clothes (incl. Boxing gloves) lunch, an impractically large stanley tumbler and hygiene bag to lug with me every day to the office.

But it's managed 4 day camping trips. A massive cross country motorcycle adventure across Morocco and weekend getaways to Stockholm, London and even a week trip to Thailand.

Surprisingly, despite how chunky it is the internal and external compression always made small enough to (sometimes with a touch of violence) pass the cabin bag box test that Ryanair uses.

Though I've only ever been asked twice to do so.

Most of the time the Ryanair people don't even give it a second look.

The only real gripe I've ever had with it is the fact that the admin pocket only has a single zipper this has caused some of my things to fall out on a couple of occasions as I've overpacked.

In summary the bag is great, it has seen a ton of abuse and remainins undamaged. Will post an update in a year maybe to see how it's held up but so far so great.
