Best Backpack Handbags for Women of 2026

"I've made the Osprey Daylite Sling my daily companion for errands and short trips. The anatomical, breathable strap is a game changer, allowing me to switch shoulders easily. I’m impressed with the durable construction and sturdy zippers—it feels like it will last for years. Despite its compact appearance, it holds way more than expected; I can fit essentials like a water bottle, Kindle, and a light jacket. The organization is simple yet keeps all my small items accessible. If you want to empty your pockets without the bulk of a backpack, this is an outstanding solution."

"Having relied on Osprey gear for years, I found the Daylite Sling to be a nearly perfect fit for my everyday carry needs. It’s lightweight, thoughtfully designed, and offers plenty of room for daily essentials. I like the multiple compartments and mesh divider, though I do wish there were a few more small pockets for pens and similar items. I solved this by adding a small organizer inside. Value-wise, I grabbed it on sale, making it an excellent purchase. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to move their gear from pockets to a sling bag."
