Osprey Packs have been a staple for backpackers since long before the idea for Vagabondish.com was even a twinkle in my eye. And with good reason – their entire line offers rock solid build construction, smart pocket placement, and clever forward-thinking design.

Which is how the company’s latest Portal Series came to be – it’s designed for everyday use by active travelers and commuters.
Osprey was kind enough to send us a sample of the Pixel Port Daypack and we’re loving it already. Features include a well thought-out organization pocket that provides easy access to daily accessories; zippered front flap with a scratch-free electronics/sunglasses pocket; and (the real winner for travelers) an under-flap Port window compartment for instant, protected tablet use without removal from the pack.
It’s all wrapped in a compact, polyester shell sized at roughly 17″ x 12″ x 5″ (capable of accommodating most 14″ laptops). With approximately 850 cubic inches (or 14L) of storage, it’s not too big and not too small. We’ve found it to be perfectly proportioned for minimalist travelers with plenty of mobile gear and gadgets in tow.
