About this deal

A removable hipbelt with 25mm webbing enhances load stability to keep you balanced and comfy when moving over uneven terrain. The chest strap is the same quality and slides easily but there isn’t an elastic loop to keep the surplus flat and out of the way. So in the wind the strap slaps you in the face, pretty annoying. There is a safety whistle.

When testing this bag, we considered key elements like: comfort, durability, storage space, ease of use, and versatility in different types of hiking situations. Both of these materials are treated with PFAS-free DWR (durable water repellent) to encourage water to bead off the fabric and provide reliable water resistance for unpredictable weather; however, please be aware that this doesn't make it fully waterproof! Materials are also recycled, which of course, is much better for the planet, and bluesign® approved. bluesign® approval ensures strict pollution control and consumer safety standards are met through manufacturing. We personally have taken the Osprey Hikelite 18 on dozens of day hikes, trail runs, carried heavy loads, and light loads. Not only have I tested it, a 165 pound male, but our other team members have tested this bag heavily on various hikes as well. While this isn’t the cheapest option for this sized bag, it is fairly priced, and the great warranty and durability make this a very high value.The waist strap is narrow but doted with length adjustment: the surplus is neatly stowed near the hips. The Hikelite 18 has a traditional panel loader design and a zip that leads you to the main compartment, which has plenty of room for lunch, extra layers and other essentials you usually take for a day on the hill. The Hikelite utilises components from their Airspeed™ system to offer premium comfort and support when wearing it. We have not only tested this bag, but we have tested hundreds of other bags, which helps ground us in making quality recommendations. The price of the Osprey Hikelite 18 L varies between retailers. Osprey bags aren’t a cheap option, but the durability and warranty make up for it. You can feel comfortable knowing that your bag isn’t going to burst a seam or zipper in the field. And even if it did, Osprey has you covered.
