This bag is an incredibly comfortable and breathable backpack for a speedy person on-the-go to be using for everyday life. While it is probably designed as a lifestyle bag more than a adventuring daypack, it has so many comfort features that would make it a dreeeaaaam for hiking. It feels like it’s almost floating on your back because of the lightweight design and airflow. I would also be mindful that because of the comfy, curved back panel, there isn’t a huge amount of protection for a laptop inside and it may feel a wee bit less comfortable.

Fit tip:
Definitely worth trying on in-store if you're a curvier woman as it is a unisex bag.

The Sportlite 20 is a simple, but awesome bag for any day hike. I think this new model makes a few improvements on the previous model - first, the hip belt has the added "hip wings" that make it more comfortable than the previous version that consisted of nylon webbing and the back panel is slightly more rigid offering a more supportive carry with the addition of the AirScape design.

If you're looking for more volume and an adjustable torso, you'll find that in the Sportlite 30, as well as a proper hip belt. However, if not filling out the full volume the flap closure on the 30L may flap around - which may or may not be a dealbreaker for you.
