EXCELLENT DESIGN & QUALITY
Having just purchased the Osprey Skimmer 28 in plum, after reading/watching many reviews its my turn to leave a review! I have tested this on a 5 hour hike in september weather (fairly warm day) + a few short road cycle rides and this bag is great! Has many pockets and very useful features, the zipped side pockets are very large and deep, the compression straps are highly useful feature as i wouldn't generally need 28 litres for an everyday hike. The 'stuff it' pocket, is great for a raincoat, the bag almost feels like its floating on you when wearing, no pain anywhere and the pack was full. The separate hydration pouch is a key feature for me, and fits the Osprey 3L bladder too (i bought seperately), although you don't need to use the tiny support clip in the pocket as the 3L fills the pocket. This is my first Osprey product, and im very impressed with the quality and looking forward to giving it more use. The plum colour is also lush!
I was originally looking at the Hikelite 26 and skimmer 20, for me the skimmer 28 although seamed large for a daybag, has far superior features to the 20 that i think are worth upgrading for - you get better additional pockets and you could use as an overnight bag. You can always use the compression straps to carry less. I am very pleased with my purchase, will very likely be purchasing osprey products again.
Summary: Would definitely recommend this pack to others, comfy, versatile with a non fussy design. Winner!

The ultimate day pack
I got my Skimmer 28 4 months ago and tested it in both urban setting and while hiking.
I love the comfortable harness and back system than can be easily adjusted. The zippered side pockets work great for storing a 0.7l food jug. The internal pocket for valuables is a must for me, but the front shove it down pocket is also a nice addition. The hiking pole attachment system works well. Huge plus for the hip belt pockets, dedicated raincover and integrated hydration system. I'm also a huge fan of the compression straps that keep the load close to the body and I wish I had them in my Talon 44 too.
Honestly, the only thing I would add would be a built in whistle on the sternum strap.

Small but perfectly formed
I bought this as a gift for my wife who already had a day pack but lusts after my Osprey kit. She originally intended to use this one just for travelling and keep the other brand for her sports day bag. After using it once, she is completely sold. This Skimmer 28 gets used for hiking, day tripping, exercise classes and commuting! The top loading main compartment works well with sufficient access to get her laptop in and the zipped side pockets are handy for keeping keys secure and a water bottle in the other . Loads of adjustment in the straps for wearing "correctly" when carrying all day and slackens off in a second for casually carrying on the shoulder. Built in raincover is also a neat touch. Construction on all of our Osprey products is consistently good, and the Skimmer is no exception would give it more stars if we could.
