Google search brought me straight here. No need to look any further...thank you so much!!
Good Google. Thanks!
Funny that you are the closest thing to instructions on how to connect the daypack to Osprey packs.
I purchased the Osprey Porter 46 litre years before I heard of possibly connecting a daylight pack. I Googled instructions and saw none!?!
The 46 L was in actuality too big but I kept it because it does have its place in my one bag arsenal. However, attaching a day pack to the very back when it already sticks out a fair amount was something I never seriously looked into.
Good to know that it does seem to be a pain and I'm not missing out on anything!
It's weird that Osprey doesn't have details on which Daypacks attach to which bags, and instructions on how to do it. It's almost like they just randomly attach loops to the outside of some packs and if you can figure out how to attach a daypack, then good for you. And yes, the 46 would be awkward and uncomfortable to carry if there was an additional daypack attached right on the back.
@@OneBagTravels I agree that it seems like Osprey just wanted to think of interesting ways to attach more and more things. I had Legos as a kid so I suppose I would spend a bit more money if I took it seriously!
And yes, the 46 is a little too big to attach anything to... but I love it because when I cinch the straight jacket (as I call it) it is basically bomb proof .. but tad big for a 5'4" female!!
Brilliant review!!! Been searching for a clear showing of how it works and failing so very happy to find this and your channel in general
Great, glad it was helpful =)
I 100% agree... those bottom loops are a nightmare! Yes, you are on only decent video out there showing how it is supposed to work. Thanks!
Thanks!
Small 30mm caribiners work well at attaching the bottom, or 25mm round ones work well.
Good tip
Thank you for demo-ing this. I've added some small triangle clips and o-rings at the attachment points instead of those terrible bits at the bottom for quick release and they work great!
That's a good idea!
Hey a very useful video 👍🏽 totally agree with osprey not providing more information on how to attach the day bags..
I have the sojourn 80 and the far point 40 .. please could you do a video showing how to attach that !
Great review! Really like the demonstration that the system can work with other 3-rd party daypacks.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
@@OneBagTravels Thank you, this was a great review! Do you know if I can attach the REI Ruckpack 18l nicely to the Farpoint 40 as well? I am deciding in between the Daylite Plus and the Ruckpack 18l. Many thanks,
Great review! Thanks a bunch. I attached my Patagonia day pack using the instructions (and 2 carabiners for the bottom attachments) and it works like a charm!
Very helpfull, I was fighting my bag before this. Almost did send the daylite back
Glad I could help!
Just returned from Europe using my trusty FP40 & Vaude 14+3 combo...wish I had known this...thanks for the future 😀
That Vaude pack looks almost identical to the Daylite bags
I havent read all the comments but I dont use the bottom connection as shown. I have to D-Clips on the bottom of the Daylite Plus and they can disconnect quickly.
I love the idea of being able to hook them together, but in practice seldom do. I have an Eagle Creek roller with attachable daypack circa 2005 and only attached them a couple times over many trips. The Osprey system, where the attach points are super minimal seems about right, can attach if needed, but don't impact either bag significantly.
Yeah, I don't see many scenerios where I would need to attach my daypack to may main bag. Maybe if I bought too much extra stuff on a trip and I was walking across town and didn't want to carry two bags. But yes I agree, even though they may not be often used, it's nice to have them there as an option, and they really don't take up any space/weight on the pack.
Thank you for explaining how it is done. I used My Pacsafe metro 25 onto my Farpoint 40 with compression straps. The way Osprey does it is time consuming. Have remove the day pack to place the Farpoint in the over head and day pack under the seat.
The double bag thing isn't the best, I prefer to have my daypack separate like you said. I will usually pack it before a flight and put it in the main bag somewhere I can get to easily. Pull the day pack out for the flight and put the main bag in the overhead.
Good job. Thanks for the super helpful instruction and recommendations.
Glad it was helpful!
I attach my Daylite Plus by simply using the two front compression straps of the Farpoint 55 main pack (takes about 3 seccnds to mount, the official method as depicted in this video would drive me crazy). If some common sense is used the daypack can't slip through either, never had an issue in 6 years. These two front straps are by far the best feature of the Farpoint 55!
Good method, I agree the loops aren't the best way to attach a daypack
I just take the strap for your waste and run it through those two bottom loops. Then tighten it. A lot easier.
I’m using the waist strap to attach the bottom, feed both ends in and attach
Good method, thanks!
THANK YOU! The Osprey website has various links in their FAQ pages that are supposed to help on this but none of them seem to work.
Osprey's poor product pages are great for video ideas! 😆
Very nice thanks for doing this it was bothering me
The Daylite cinch daypack has the daisy chain down both sides & is soooo easy to attach. I’m going to use the front pocket for a water bottle
Great idea!
Thank you for this video. I look forward to more videos about these bags ☺️
Thanks for watching! =)
Thank you for this video. Answered many questions.
Great, glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the help, great vid!
Thank you for your rewview. I can not understand why Osprey has not made a similar video. By the way, suposedly there is a Daylite you can attach to the front part of the backpack.
The Farpoint Daypack can attach to the front of the Farpoint 40 and 55, I go into more detail on the daypack attachments in this video (th-cam.com/video/8nkQuNZMnMA/w-d-xo.html)
Thanks for this video! Very helpful!
Thanks, glad you liked it =)
I bought a Farpoint 40 in 2018, I'm guessing an older model than the one you're referring to, because it doesn't have these loops. I just picked up the Daylight. I love both of these independently, but was disappointed that there is not a simple way to connect them. Astoundingly, there are multiple different types of buckles on each, NONE of which are compatible across backpacks!
Would you recommend buying/replacing the buckles to make the two packs compatible?
It's kind of silly. If you anticipate attaching the Daylite a lot and it's a fairly easy fix then it could be worth it.
Good review, something to keep in mind
Thanks! =)
Instead of the pain of how you attached the bottom bits, could I not just thread the hip straps through the bottom loops and connect them? I just tried this with my new daylite plus on my partners farpoint trek 75 and it seemed like it worked great. Hoping to buy the fairview trek 50 by EOY and see if my daylite plus can attach to it the same way.
EDIT: Is there any reason I shouldn’t attach the bag to the bottom loops this way? Thank you
The connection is a little wonky so any way you can attach it that works better I would be all down for that
Great video!! it seems a little bit uncomfortable to attach a bag, maybe using a snap hook could work better if you dont have nothing in front to attach it... waiting for the comparison with new FP55... Nice "Mate" from behind
Thanks, I got that mate in Salta Argentina. I drank it a lot when I was down there but it never really stuck, I still like my coffee =) And yes, they could have made a much better attachment system. Since it really only needs to mount from the top, something sturdier, snap hook, buckle, fidlock. The fabric loops are a little clumsy but it works.
I haven’t read all the comments, but wouldn’t it be easier to attach without the waist straps of?
Maybe, I haven't tried it
Apologies if I'm oversimplifying but if you have difficulty securing the lower buckle adjuster and the multiple layers of straps, would it not be easier to thread the hip 'belt' strap through the gear loops? while they may be bigger, a more sturdy and solid buckles could prove to be easier to thread and/or remove.
I have this one on the way (warranty replacement) so I was checking out the reviews. thanks!
I tried that and the buckle on the hip belt is too large to fit through the fabric loops. Curious as to what happened to your pack that it needed to be replaced? Assuming you haven't had it very long since it just came out this year.
@@OneBagTravels it was an older version daylite that had delaminated on the inside. The warranty dept offered the Daylite plus in exchange.
@@perrytferrell That's a good deal!
Hm, I wonder if this does work with my Kestrel 58 as well. That would be awesome.
There are a bunch of loops on the back of the Kestrel 58, I bet you could find somewhere to attach it.
I have the generation b4 the new farpoint 55l and I lost my day pack when I went to Italy (it's the one that zips in) and was wondering if ide be able to attach the new daylight to my old farpoint before I spend a million dollars on a new 55l for my trip to Portugal
I'm not sure actually. I only have the newer model of Farpoint 55L and it has fabric loop attachments and not the zipper. If yours has a zipper I don't think it will work, they updated all the attachments on the new models of the Farpoint 40 and 50.
@@OneBagTravels thank you for replying! i went ahead and picked up my new tunnel vision grey farpoint 55 with daypack, its different but i do like the look of these new ones
Interesting video, I'm considering getting a Daylite for my Rook 50 to stretch out the capacity a little bit. I wonder if the extra weight outwards creates an uncomfortable balance? At any rate, seems like bottom attachment is secure.
The more weight you add further from your back, the more you are going to put extra stress on your back. I would concentrate your heavier gear in the main bag, and use the daypack for lighter gear like clothes.
Which 2 in 1 do you most recommend? I've been doing my best going through Osprey, Thule, etc and I havent been able to make a great decision. I mainly travelt to conventions in the US, but I am on a plane 5 or 6 times a year(or otherwise, driving for 6+ hours). My goal is to have the ability to travel as comfortably as possible while still having the carry-on convenience for both bags.
Would you suggest this Osprey over say.. Thule 70l? or maybe another good option?
For more info, I often find my osprey 40L is JUST enough for me, and then I carry a secondary backpack that can't strap on for my daily shenanigans. I feel like I might benefit from a little bigger pack in that regard.
Farpoint is a great bag. I think if you're going to go larger than 40L it would be easier to just use rolling luggage. 70L backpack is doable, but it's so big and heavy it's not going to be very convenient to carry on a plane.
@@OneBagTravels I don't like the idea of rolling luggage, probably because I prefer both my hands be as free as possible.
What about buying a porter 46L, and then going for a daypack/converting a backpack I already have thats 20L or less into a daypack? Is the porter more manageable(if you've tried it) over the 55L in the 70L combo?
Sorry if that was confusing haha.
@@MikeyKirin I'd say a smaller bag is going to always be more manageable
Useful, thanks!
You're welcome!
I want to buy the Fairpoint 40 and a osprey daypack: Why not the fairpoint daypack (vs the daylite)? They should sync up better
Exactly!
Perfect video for me because I have the Farpoint 40 and am now looking at a day pack that can also pass as a 'personal item' when boarding planes.
Do you think airlines with a 40x30x10cm size limit on personal items would accept the daylite? The daylite is 43x26x20cm, but i could probably keep it below 10cm depth for the airlines if they dont measure the bag in an uncompressed state...
Thanks!
Dang, what airline is that, Singapore? Even RyanAir gives you 20 cm depth! But yeah, I think most airlines you could get away with it if you don't overpack the bag.
@@OneBagTravels Eva Air! I think i will get the Daylite. I really hope i dont run into any issues, i just dont want to check any bags. I plan to take a laptop, charger, tablet and battery back in the daylite, but only for the plane. It should make for a decent day bag once at my destination.
Lol yeah I never bother to attach the bottom part
I can't image many people do 😣
Seems like front carry makes more sense for the daypack
I'm not a big fan of either, I think if your bag is big enough to need a separate front daypack then you should just switch to a rolling suitcase because it's more comfortable.
Is it possible to attach the daypack to an old model Fairview 40L?
The older model doesn't have the fabric loops, but like I show later in the video, you can just strap it on the back with the two buckle straps.
But wait, how do you access valuables from your daypack if it’s attached to the back?
You can still open the pockets on the daypack, it's just attached on the back.
Can the daylite plus be connected to the front of the farpoint for turtleshell carry?
No. Only the Farpoint/Fairview Daypack has the buckles to attach to the front of the Farpoint.
@@OneBagTravels I asked Osprey this question and they said: Yes, is the answer to your question, the Daylight Plus can be attached to the shoulder straps of your current pack.
So they seem to say there is a way to attach the Daylite Plus to the shoulder straps of the Farpoint 40. Do you have any idea how this could be possible?
@@kilbeam99 Interesting, I didn't see the buckles on that bag and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have them. I'm out of the country right now but I'll check it when I get back
@@OneBagTravels I've asked them to elaborate on how to connect them, will let you know what they say!
@@OneBagTravels I'm rather confused.
They went back on what they said, and then claimed it could be attached to the shoulderstraps of the 55L and the 70L Farpoint, but not the 40L or 80L.
I asked them a few days ago how that is possible, since the 40L and 55L have the same buckles on the straps to attach the Farpoint Daypack. So how could the Daylite Plus be attached then?
I haven't heard back from them yet.
the actual point of the video starts at 1:21, the rest is fluff
The first 1:20 is background info on the bag attachment system and which bags are compatible. I included timestamps if you want to skip over that part.
