OspreyHikelite 26L Unisex Hiking Backpack, Atlas BlueBluesignBluesignBluesign

The media could not be loaded. My fiancé and I did a full week’s worth of hiking in Chattanooga TN and we both used this exact bag. These bags were extremely comfortable and durable. I loved the fact it had the outside pocket for shoes or a sweater, I personally used that pocket multiple times. The straps were super comfortable and I’m picky about textures and things like that. It also has a smaller top pocket which I used for my lip balm and phone. The back part as well is netted and intentionally leaves some space between your back and the backpack so your back isn’t drenched in sweat. It absolutely POURED on us at one point and the added rain cover was so extremely convenient. They are pretty lightweight as well. The performance of these bags was top tier and it was a great value for the cost. We would totally repurchase these bags.

*received March 2025* I will update review if I find problems. But so far, this seems to be a great quality bag. It is what I wanted. The size is great for me and I love the color. What I was looking for was the breathable part that is on your back. I am super excited to try this out. So far it seems comfortable and lightweight, as I was hoping.

We bought this for our 10yr old for our day hiking trips. It was a great fit and he has plant of room to grow. He is 4ft 9 inches and about 80 pounds. It also fit me and I am 5 ft 4 inches. It holds a good amount of supplies water and two side pockets and easy access pockets make it great for airport travel too. High quality, very comfortable, and even has a built in safety whistle on the chest strap. Bright color makes it easy to find him on trails or busy places.

I bought this pack for my daughter. She loves that it is lightweight. She can carry a lot of things in it. It distributes the weight evenly. She has taken it on day hikes, and weekend hikes. She also uses it as a carry-on when she flies.

It weighs next to nothing and is comfortable to wear fully loaded. While there is nothing wrong with this pack, I tend to lean towards over packing on my day trips, just in case. I like the size larger in this same line a little better for the ability to carry more and the padded hip belt for the extra load if needed.

Overall great bag. Perfect for a day hike. May or May not be able to pull off commuter or overnight duties depending on your needs as it's clearly hike first.+Nice color. The steel blue accents give it a pop without being overdone.+Feels sturdy with the suspension frame but still fairly light and comfortable.+The zipper pulls are smooth and easy to use.+Side pockets are tall and fit my 750ml camelbak bottle. But looks like it will fit oversized Nalgenes as well.+Pole loops work well and when poles are inserted it holds the bag up.+The small zip pocket is right at the top of the bag close to the back. Its positioned so you can reach behind your head, find the pull and grab what you need.+I liked how the compression straps cinched the load down to frame and we're spaced in an easy way that didn't interfere with opening the main compartment.-Lack of extra pockets or organization. It's a rucksack, but I felt it could use another pocket.-Stuff pocket isn't mesh and needs to cinched down with the compression straps to secure.- Proprietary reservoir holder. I made it work with my 2L camelback anchor style reservoir. It may not for other types.

It was a perfect backpack. Took it to Alaska and it was comfortable and held a lot of items.

If your interested in a lightweight, comfortable, and sturdy hiking pack this is the one . About the same capacity as my last Northface pack but without all the insulation on my back . No more sweat soaking through my shirts . Shoulder straps are nice also . I live on the Oregon coast and walk my dogs an average of 12 miles a day eith this on and it is wonderfully. Hope this helps
