Osprey Farpoint/Fairview Travel Daypack Review (1 Month of Use)

[@DM-fv7hw]

Speaking of attaching a daypack to the Farpoint travel packs, I learned that the Patagonia Blackhole 25 daypack has similar attachment points and works with the Farpoint 40. FYI

[@thehalls9143]

Are you saying it has buckles to clip to the should straps of Farpoint 40? Or it can be strapped to the compression straps on the back?

[@DM-fv7hw]

@@thehalls9143 The same way this pack attaches.

[@DM-fv7hw]

@@thehalls9143 Compression straps, not for carrying in the front.

[@MrLlama999]

The daisy chains on the REI Ruckpacks might also work.

[@armatillo]

@@thehalls9143 I was hoping it would be the former but in the info video for the blackhole 25 there are no visible clips or clip facilities on the shoulders to allow for attaching to a travel pack.

We used the combination of Farpoint/Fairview (we have one of each) and the Daypack at our last trip to greece. At all the backpack does what it should but in my oppinion it was a little bit to small. For the trips it was ok, but at the beach or for shopping in the supermarket it was to small. For the next trip we try addional to the Daypack the Daylite Plus, maybe it fits better to our needs.

[@ThorSkin69]

Agreed. Just too small to chuck in a towel and swimmers and snacks, drink etc or a laptop, small camera, nibbles, drink bottle, plus sounds like it would be better suited

[@jameswhee]

I really need to know how it attaches to the Farpoint 80 travel pack. Absolutely no instructions anywhere 😩

[@mikef1949]

This vs the Daylite Plus which do you like more?

[@ReturnOfEmmanuel]

Out of curiosity, what camera cube do you use? And have you found a perfect one-backpack (works for both travel, hiking and city commuting) that accommodates your camera cube? Thanks in advanced, great video btw.

[@luciewise2603]

Is this the 15L bag?

[@elvafong3591]

I have not used travel cubes and was wondering what brand of travel cubes did you use i the video?

[@DerNesor]

I used this in combination with the Farpoint 40 as intented. It was a joy to walk around London with that Combo but I felt the Daypack isn't quite as comfortable as a dedicated small backpack. It was not bad by any means but after a full day of walking around with it, my shoulders were feeling uncomfortable a bit more than with other Backpacks

[@PackHacker2]

Thanks for sharing your insights! 🤙

[@twoballz]

Do you know if this will work as a personal item?

[@Victortuno]

Dear Eric, I have the older Fairpoint 40. I'm deciding between buying just the daypack or to change for the new Fairpoint 55. In terms of packing space, do you think is worth making the investment in the new FP55? I heard that the new FP55 has more space due to not having the laptop space in the main compartment. Thank you for your videos.

[@taniaclayton2143]

Hi, does this daypack have trekking pole loops to carry a pole?

[@stmatt21]

What kind of packing cubes are those? i just got my daypack the other day and I'm interested with those cubes.

[@DHendo214]

@stmatt21 looks like Heimplanet

[@TallSlowGuy]

looks like.... HEIMPLANET

[@slappycrook]

Dang pretty impressive for the price

[@PackHacker2]

🤙🤙🤙

[@xo7454]

​@@PackHacker2what color is this? I don't see this on osprey website

[@56phil020244]

Is this compatible with the sojourn 46? Thanks!

[@mikef1949]

“ Compatible with Daylite™and Farpoint™/Fairview™ daypacks.” From their description for the sojourn

[@Hyrxxx]

I'm deciding between this one and the daylite plus in combination with the farpoint 40, I bought them all to try but don't know with one is better, will fit better, etc. Can you help me out a bit?

[@mikef1949]

I’m in the same predicament. What did you decide?

[@jojooost]

@@mikef1949 Hi, ofc! I decided to go with the farpoint 40 + Daylight plus. The farpoint daypack was to small/long and not many items fitted. Also, the daypack had more separate places to store your items. I'm very satisfied. And also you can connect the daylite plus on the fairpoint, It's just a bit different. Hope you can make your choice! Cheers!

[@nicberlin030]

@@jojooost Can you attach the Daylite plus also to the shoulder straps to carry it in front of you? I couldn't really find out, and I don't see the same straps as on the Farpoint Daypack in the Daylite Plus.

[@keyleec]

@@jojooost how did you attach the daylite plus to the farpoint 40 backpack? Is it possible to attach it so that its on your front?

[@jojooost]

@@keyleec hey, will awnser later so I can see how I did it

[@nolan766]

Im looking for a way to attach the daypack. If I just use the straps provided on the front, the daypack slips when i have put my laptop in. Had anyone found a way to hold the daypack on whil under weight?

[@Breckett]

I'm currently trying to figure this out myself. Apparently the daypack used to be connected to the larger backpack via the straps - AND a zipper. But as it seems, this doesn't exist anymore?

[@franciscoramos6619]

There should be buckles for the waist belt that fit into some loops and maybe it'll make it more sturdy

[@EphemeralObsequious]

I haven't used this pack but my first thought is to add a carabiner to attach the hand strap at the top of the day pack to the hand strap at the top of the farpoint. So two straps through the front plus carabiner holding it up. Just a thought.
