This Was A Gift, Which
This was a gift, which was received very enthusiastically. I'm a bit jealous, actually!

Nice For Quick Trips And Hikes
I really like this back pack, keeps your back from getting all sweaty. I wish it had one more additional small pocket on the outside and then it would be perfect.
I ended up buying the daylight packing cubes since there are no internal pockets and that works great with this pack

The Hikelite 28 Pack Has
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hikelite 28 pack has been a great pack for me. I used my original pack when I hiked Hadrian's Wall Path a few years ago and my new pack was used on a recent trip to Glacier National Park. I think it's well designed, light weight and functional. It is the best pack I have ever used.

I Have Had Two Hikelite
I have had two Hikelite 26 rucksacks before but this one has a sgnificant rediseign that makes it almost unuseable for me and I may have to buy a different rucksack instead, Comparing it with the old one the two shoulder straps splay out at a much wider angle so that when the left is in the correct and comfortable position the right is standing off the shoulder completely. Adjusting the straps mitigates the problem a little but not really enough.
See photo where older (narrower) Hikelite 26 is overlaid on new version.

Perfect Pack, Bad Print
This is the perfect daypack. Period. But the little osprey logo at the front of the backpack is comming loose after 2 wears.

Fabulous Backpack
I love my new HikeLite back pack. The hip and chest straps give really good support. Even when filled, it feels so light as though it wasn't even there. I love the teal colours and the item is perfect for day hikes.

Cracking Backpack
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hands down the best backpack I've owned (think this is my 5th), 1st time with Osprey. Very comfortable, hardly know I've got it on, and great for a lot less sweaty back 👌

Excellent Backpack
Very comfortable backpack for a day out walking with a design that takes the weight off your shoulders. The waterproof cover is handy and the two zips for the small
and main sections of the backpack make it easy to organise your stuff.

Good Size & Light Backpack
Used it several times now & find it comfortable & easy to carry. Size is fine for a day out walking & the side pockets can easily fit a drink bottle. Would definitely recommend this backpack

Spacious Lightweight Yet Sturdy Bag
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as my 32L Nebula I have found is too large and heavy for my 5’2 older female frame. Has plenty of space for hoodie/coat/lunch etc but sits off the back re airflow so not sweaty! Fits snugly round size 14 hips and is so much more comfortable. I think my Nebula is better suited for a taller female or a man. This bag ticks all the boxes for a daypack for a week in the Lake District.
