I’m certain that you’d never fit a Nalgene in the pockets. I’m not sure there’s a water bottle made that will fit in the side mesh pockets, especially once the pack is full of gear. The side mesh pockets are virtually useless. The water bottle mesh pockets are also too small for almost all water bottles that I carry. The Daylite Plus does have an external water bladder sleeve, which I think is a great feature, but I’m just not that big of a fan of water bladders. It does have a key clip to keep your keys safe and organized in the accessory pocket, as well as a couple mesh pockets for organization. I have a hard time fitting the little miscellany that I normally keep in my Talon 22 accessory pocket in the Daylite Plus accessory pocket. If I’d spent $65, I would have sent it back.Īlso, the Osprey Daylite Plus has really small accessory pockets. Using Amazon gift cards I’d saved up and buying the color that was on sale (I wanted the granite color, but blue is cool, too), I only paid $15 for my Osprey Daylite Plus. However, at the $65.00 price point, I would definitely say it was the worst daypack on the market, today. C-Secure Slim Cardholder (Nero D00571) $39.00 $27.So, what is it that I don’t like about the Daylite Plus? Why would I say it’s the worst daypack, available?.Wherever you find adventure, we’ve got your back. Others find it on their children’s earliest adventures, either on their parent’s back or gently guided as they shoulder their first pack. Some find it summiting lofty peaks in remote ranges, mountain biking twisty singletrack, or travelling to new places near or far. It’s open to everyone and is found anywhere you have the willingness to look. We don’t believe that adventure is accessible to few. We’re inspired by and celebrate the desire to explore life with curiosity and passion. There’s always something new to find if you’re willing to scratch below the surface. Everywhere we look, from the desert canyons to our west, to the grandeur of the San Juan mountains to our east, we’re immersed in natural riches. We live, work and play in Cortez, Colorado, where life moves at a slower pace and traffic jams are caused by cattle drives. Crafters of the highest quality products in the industry. Diverse personalities, backgrounds, and abilities make us what we are today. Osprey is a melting pot of professional misfits, there’s no mold to fit here. Our company’s founder, Mike Pfotenhauer, is still the mad hatter leading our designs and innovations. Over the last forty-something years we’ve stayed true to this ethos as we’ve grown as a company and a brand. Osprey grew from one person’s desire to use and make more comfortable, longer lasting and functionally sound packs.
