I took this on a 5 month trip through Europe and Asia and am really happy with it. Since it zips open in the front, it's was super easy to reorganize and see all my things at once. I used the day pack often for day and weekend trips, it's a great easy-to-carry size. I will say, once overstuffed (50+ lbs) it made me feel too back heavy, unlike a super long top-load pack, if you put a lot of things in it, it grows too much in width. I generally wore it was two pieces, carrying the day pack on my chest for balance. Which I found to be convenient for reaching my passport, wallet, ect and not having to unclip it all the time. I'd buy it again. Though, I don't have to because after a long haul it's still in amazing condition.

I love this backpack. I bought it for my first trip to Europe and it served as the perfect travel backpack. I had no problems bringing it onto the plane as a carry-on, with the detachable daypack as a personal item. The rear flap that covers the belt and shoulder straps is great when stowing away the backpack. I also appreciate the lockable zippers on both the main backpack and daypack, especially when I stayed at hostels that didn't provide lockers. While trucking my stuff between cities and on trains, I appreciated how light the pack felt, because the fit is just right. The belt sits right on my waist without sliding down or chafing my hips and the shoulder straps curve inwards towards the chest. Best of all is the detachable daypack, which allowed me to drop off the majority of my things at a hostel, and right away go exploring armed with my daypack. I also love the rainforest green color - its not too drab and not overly bright.

So thankful to have this bag for the past 6 months of traveling! The main compartment makes it very easy to access all of my clothes without having to rummage to the bottom of the bag. The zip-off backpack is high-quality and perfect for day hikes/adventures and for organizing my laptop and camera while traveling. If traveling during the winter with bulky sweaters, the main compartment won't fit a ton of clothes. When the backpack was full, I would get comments about how bulky it was, but as soon as you zip off the small backpack the main compartment is actually quite slim. I was able to take this bag as my personal item on budget European airlines without getting charged. I wouldn't recommend this backpack for long backpacking trips, but it's the perfect travel companion for getting around and the day-pack is great for shorter adventures!

Used this backpack on a spring break trip to Thailand, to avoid having to roll an awkward suitcase around a less-developed country. This was the perfect size and so versatile. The detachable daypack is what really sold me, and made it so useful for everyday use while leaving the larger backpack locked up at the hostels we stayed at. Not to mention how cute the colors are!

I have many osprey products and was really disappointed with this. So glad I was able to go to a shop to try it! The waist belt is tiny. I am by no means a tiny girl but I'm not huge, and the waist belt was AT LEAST 20cm off being able to do up. As I said, I have many other osprey backpacks and don't have this issue. I was not trying on the petite one, I double checked. I really wanted this as the fit is so much better on me than the far point but it was a huge disappointment. I expected better from osprey.
