I am looking to replace a Lowe contour IV that is about 15 years old. I really loved the contour IV. Is this a comparable substitute?

It's very comparable. Like the Contour, the Red Cloud has an adjustable torso range, top and panel load, double aluminum stay internal frame, sleeping bag compartment and extendable top lid with spin drift collar. The bonus you're getting with the Red Cloud over the Contour are the side pockets. Hope this helps.
