My old daypack( unknown brand - cheap) had to retire after 5 years of heavy use. I hope this osprey holds up longer, I was told it was the best brand. It ’s big enough for my family of four to pack overnight clothes and next day outfits for an evening away. Have yet to take it on a day hike. Super excited about this pack. Waited until it was on sale and had a$ 10 gift card

I ’ ve taken my Gregory Women ’s Jade 24 LT Backpack on two training hikes so far as I prepare for my upcoming trip to Havasu Falls, and it ’s been exactly what I needed. The organization is one of the biggest highlights. The front pocket is perfect for storing food and snacks so I don ’ t have to dig through the main compartment during breaks. Inside the main compartment, I can comfortably fit clothes, toiletries, and a water bladder without everything feeling cramped. I also love the hip belt pockets — they ’ re ideal for quick - access essentials like lip balm, sunscreen, etc… while hiking. The only con is that my phone doesn ’ t fit. I chose the bright yellow color, and I ’ m glad I did because it ’s highly visible and easy to spot. Overall, this pack feels practical, well - designed, and great for day hikes and trip preparation. I ’ m excited to keep using it on my Havasu Falls adventure.

[ My wife used it as an airport/ day hike pack on trip to Iceland and liked the comfort and security. Her only complaint was she wished it was a bit bigger, but that's on me since I ordered it.

I have two other Osprey packs and love the women- specific features. ... Ventilation is important as I am on the East Coast and we have humidity! ... I got the right fit after watching a Youtube that showed that the hipbelt pad in front should be centered over the pelvic bone- not above it as I had...

[ I 'm a small women and it fits like a glove. The vents and frame keeping it off my back really stopped the sweating. You should give it a try!

[ This is the second Osprey Sirrus pack I have purchased and I think this is one is even better than my first one. I like the additional pocket in the front. It fits great and I have a small torso. I know this will be another favorite.

[ Got it in blue. It's a really good looking shade of blue, and the pack itself it well constructed with a good number of features. Personally I do n't like the Osprey trekking pole loop design and I would rather have loops on the outside of the packs for carrying poles when I do n't use them. I 'd also prefer mesh pouch rather than the zip down the middle. These are n't big deals though because I knew of them when I bought the pack, so that advice goes to anyone looking at this pack. Research the features before you pull the trigger.

[ M husband and I each bought this pack for the Portuguese Camino, having to carry all of our gear for a two week trek. Great pack for our purpose! Lots of places to stash things we needed more immediate access too, easy to adjust straps to fit. Lightweight. Looks good too!

[ I love the color of this bag! My boyfriend has a much older Osprey of this volume/size and mine seems like it could hold much more than the older one. So far I ’ ve hiked with it here and there but not carried too much weight in it and it ’s been fantastic. The waist belt is taking a little longer to break in due to the thickness of the side pouches, but I ’ m sure it will wear in soon!
