Hikelite 28 L Backpack

Ideal for day hikes and city commutes alike, the Osprey Hikelite 28 L backpack offers a perfect blend of functionality and convenience. This technical daypack comes with a panel-loader design, providing easy access to the main compartment and a front stretch fabric pocket for stashing additional items. The raincover, cleverly stowed in a zippered base pocket, ensures your gear stays dry, while extra-tall, stretch mesh side pockets securely hold your water bottle or gear. The backpack’s adjustable sternum strap is equipped with a rescue whistle, and the tensioned mesh backpanel offers exceptional ventilation and support. Made from 100% recycled body fabrics with a durable water repellent finish, this backpack is both sustainable and robust.
