FAQs
What is the capacity of the Osprey Daylite Plus backpack?
Info needed: [Capacity in liters] The Daylite Plus offers increased storage compared to the standard Daylite, making it suitable for a full day's essentials.
Is the Daylite Plus waterproof?
The Daylite Plus is made from durable materials that offer good water resistance for light rain or splashes. However, it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend using a separate rain cover (sold separately) to protect your contents.
Can I use a hydration reservoir with this backpack?
Yes, the backpack features a multifunctional padded interior sleeve that can securely hold a hydration reservoir (up to a certain size, typically 2-2.5 liters, but verify reservoir dimensions) in addition to or instead of a laptop.
What does it mean for a product to be a 'bluesign® PRODUCT'?
Being a bluesign® PRODUCT means that the materials, components, and entire manufacturing process meet stringent environmental and safety criteria. It indicates a commitment to responsible and sustainable textile production, minimizing impact on people and the planet.
Can the Daylite Plus be used as a personal item on flights?
Yes, its compact dimensions and lightweight design typically allow it to qualify as a personal item for most airlines, fitting under the seat in front of you. Always check specific airline requirements before flying.
How do I clean the interior of the backpack?
For general cleaning, simply wipe the interior with a damp cloth. For spills or odors, hand wash the affected area with a mild, pH-neutral soap and cold water, then air dry completely with all compartments open.
Troubleshooting
Backpack feels uncomfortable or unstable.
Adjust the shoulder straps and sternum strap for a snug fit. If carrying a partial load, use the side compression straps to cinch down contents and prevent shifting. Ensure heavier items are packed closer to your back.
Laptop doesn't fit in the padded sleeve.
The padded sleeve is designed for laptops up to 14 inches. Verify your laptop's screen size. For larger devices, consider carrying them in the main compartment with additional padding if needed.
Having difficulty attaching the Daylite Plus to a larger Osprey pack.
Ensure your larger Osprey pack has the specific loops and buckles designed for Daylite series attachment. Consult the user manual for both packs for detailed instructions on the connection points and method.
Water bottles keep falling out of side mesh pockets.
Use water bottles that fit snugly within the mesh pockets. The dual side compression straps can also be used to help secure items in these pockets by tightening them over the bottles.

- Use Compression Straps: If your pack isn't full, cinch down the dual side compression straps to secure your load and prevent shifting.

Care & Maintenance

- Drying: Hang the backpack upside down in a well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight, to air dry completely. Ensure all compartments are open to prevent mildew.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
- Zipper Maintenance: Periodically clean zippers with a small brush and lubricate with a silicone-based zipper lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
