OMG, it is a rabbit hole! I have spend waaaay too much time looking at the hundreds of models available.
Have any of you had experience with the Milspec day packs? |

I say just pick one that looks good feature wise at a price you are willing to pay. It will work fine until it doesn't and then you'll start all over again. It's how it works. Too many choices. |

I bought a Mission Workshop Sanction and have been very pleased with it for daypack use from commuting on my non-basket bike to day hikes to overnight trips. A little expensive but definitely well made and it looks good. I specifically wanted something sleek and black that I felt like could fit in with my informal business attire.

Gregory?
I have a Gregory pack from 25 years ago that is still doing this job perfectly.
I haven’t seen their name come up and I’ve had no reason to shop for one since. Are they still making high quality product? |

I've got an ArcTeryx Brize 25. The material is more robust which helps when carrying the heavier items you described, plus the waffle-like back pad works to keep you cooler. Also, the design of the closures makes it more secure for travel.

I have a SpecOps Tactical pack and an Osprey Skarab 18 that serve me well. Took both for ten days of bus and hike in Costa Rica recently. Worked perfectly.

saw this article and it reminded me of how much I love Osprey's stuff. I have had this same pack for four or five years now and it has been awesome.

I like what topo designs has to offer. I current use their smaller day pack, fits my laptop. Also for weekend trips I picked up their 30L travel bag. Great well thought-out designs. Super durable. Day pack gets a lot of use with no issues.

Osprey stratos 24
Just as I was getting ready to look for a day pack on the REI website I first made my morning visit to the Paceline Forum and this thread was the first post, crazy!
I read all of the posts and Sunday afternoon stopped by my local REI to check out day packs. After talking to the salesman and checking out many different options I decided on the Osprey Stratos 24. I really liked the size, hip belt, adjustability and most of all the fit and Airspeed suspension. Gong to be doing some day hikes in Acadia on my trip in July, I think this pack will work perfectly. Anyone else using this particular Osprey? Feedback? Thanks quattro |

Way late to this but another vote for the Osprey Daylight. I've had mine for 4 years. Great for commuting and hiking.
