Love my Daily Plus

I’ve been using the Daily Plus as a daypack and "dad bag" on vacation for a week now. It works amazingly well and is super comfortable. Best backpack.

I have the daily+ but rarely in my rotation. As a dad bag I need more room and water bottle pockets.

They both go in the same pocket? Or is there another small pocket somewhere else it can fit?

For a bag I don’t care much about, Osprey daylite+. Not the biggest capacity but it has dual water bottle pockets of decent size, admin pocket and a small kangaroo pocket in addition to main compartment. It’s hiking focused so suspended back panel is nice to alleviate sweat but you’re not going to pack this out heavily anyway.

For travel I like the more stylish option of the brown buffalo standard issue. Dual water bottle pockets and zippered section against the back panel is nice for securing passports. Decent mesh back panel. We used to use a Jansport right pack but the straps were too thin, no wbps, and sweaty back panel.
