This daysack is quite simpy unbelievable in terms of how versatile it is. There are the two pouches on the side which I often use for a water bottle first aid kit or something, but are also large enough to slide a map case into and the straps mean nothing is ever going to fall out of them!
The pouch at the front is quite thin so i often slide my map case into here or anything else think i may need to hand. The camelback slot is very useful and easy to use.
The main part of the daysack has a drawstring and compression strap, which are of easy use and very quick to adjust. Although it may not look like that large a bag I was happily surprised at how much kit I could fit into it - easily enough with some room to spare!
The hood has a small zip pocket on the inside with a netting so you can see whats in it, so i often use this for small random items. There is also a zipped top pocket on the outside of the hood which is again deceptively large, fitting my first aid kit, sunglasses, camera, wallet and other such items and even has a very small velcro pocket inside for loose coins etc - a great little feature.
The straps are very durable and what I love is that the waist strap is sturdy meaning you can pop almost all the weight onto your hips. Most daysacks only have very thin straps that are often useless but Osprey have exceeded themselves further with small zip pockets attached into the waist strap! I normally use them for sun cream or my penknife but they are a very useful feature.
The chest strap is brilliantly made, with an emergency whistle built into one of the clips. What I love about the chest strap is that it is sligthly elasticated on one side. This means that when tightened it still allows you to breath deeply and easily without constricting your chest which is unlike most other daysacks!
Another couple of features are some small loops on the exterior of the bag at the base for carrabiners or similar and also the small elasticated, netted pouches on the shoulder straps so a compass can easily be slotted into them.
All in all this is easily the best daysack I have ever owned, it stores everything I need and has some ingenious features showing that Osprey have completely outdone themselves to create an all round amazing daysack.
The price may be a bit more than other daysacks in a similar range but I have no regrets in buying this over the other cheaper prodcuts and would thoroughly recommend it to all!
