Thanks for the review. I saw a guy with this sling in the grocery store a few months ago. I was immediately interested and found it at a national outdoor retailer. While I waited for a member discount coupon to arrive I searched around for reviews and yours was very helpful. I have since been using the sling for about 2 weeks and am very happy with it. Your review was spot on and helped me make an informed purchase. Keep it up!
I wear mine in the front 95% of the time. I can fit a 40 oz hydroflask and a 24 oz Gatorade bottle in the main pocket. I've worn it in stores that won't allow backpacks. Great sling.
Great review, i walk a lot in my town, especially to cafes, and wanted a bag i could carry my tablet, phone, sunscreen, headphones and dog treats. Didn't want a full backpack which would have been an overkill. Today saw a guy in coffee line and voila, this bag checks all the boxes i want except for the high shipping costs at Osprey. I hate slings that hug the chest (women so adjustable strap will be good)
Thanks for the great review. Looking for a sling for a local festival so I can go hands-free & Osprey's my typical first-thought. This review helped me decide that the Daylite is the one I need. 👍👍
Kristyne is so cool. That's it, that's all the input I have. I've been trying to decide whether I want this bag or not so I've watched this video several times. Still undecided. 🤪🤣
Couple questions for you guys! First, is there a roughly phone sized slot in the main compartment? This bag is ranking pretty high for me and my use case. The outside pocket would be almost exclusively for a pair of work gloves, maybe a rolled up lightweight jacket if it can fit, so the main compartment would be where I'd dump my phone and other pocket-things. It looks like I might need an organizer of some kind to secure my phone, multitool, and flashlight. Second, how elastic is that tablet pocket? Do you think a molle covered plastic insert could fit in there to perhaps use like I mentioned previously, or will it not open enough for that?
Went to the doctor a couple weeks ago, came in handy for carrying a book, a water bottle, bag of cough drops, power bank & charging cable, hand sanitizer, and a couple snacks and pocket tissue pack. Setup works good for the DMV, jury duty, anywhere that usually involves a waiting room.
Less obstructive, lighter, easily swings to the front for quick access, more compact profile, can be worn in front a little easier than a full sized backpack……
You can’t compare a backpack and a sling. Very different missions. The Sling is designed to be light and small. You throw it over a shoulder then go out for the day with your wallet, passport, protein bar, and of course your phone.
